However my husband does know how to tear the hear out of his victim and eat it.

My bride (35 yrs) insists of dragging me along for furniture purchases...”do these go together”. “ I dunno”. Hell my sox often don’t match. (Let alone shoes)

I lived as a single guy in my own apartment for a solid decade before we met. Anything I bought was strictly utilitarian. TVs, stereos, tools, firearms and cars were the only thing I was fussy about buying....and none of them matched. I would ask my, at the time, current sweetie to help me pick out suits for a job interviews..... After that I wore jeans and a t-shirt and plane khaki pants and collared shirt for work (if required).

What does my wife wear? How the he!! Would I know.....she looks nice and I don’t know why.....nor do I care to know why.

Has the whole male race lost their Ba!!s???

Conn Conagher didn't need anyone to tell him how to be a real man.

There is a difference between a real man (John Wayne) and a modern man (Matthew Broderick). The rise of the metrosexual as illustrated in the movie "Kramer vs. Kramer" has supplanted the real man image.
To many boys are being raised by single mothers/ grandmothers.

Men need to be in the company of men. They need to know how to treat women correctly, stand up for what is right and do the right thing, even if it costs them.

[Alberta's Child]

"To be a man was to be responsible. It was as simple as that. To be a man was to build something, to try to make the world about him a bit easier to live in for himself and those who followed. You could sneer at that, you could scoff, you could refuse to acknowledge it, but when it came right down to it, Conn decided it was the man who planted a tree, dug a well, or graded a road who mattered.” -- Louis L'Amour, Conagher

The riddle of steel is that the hotter the fire, the stronger the steel. And it is the riddle of man also, the hotter the tribulations, the stronger the man.

The more heat you have the more impurities (dross) are burned off leaving only the essential elements. The same is true of precious metals. There is an old saying "The gold is refined when you can see your reflection in the molten metal."

Ok, maybe I am compensating for something.

They say dynamite comes in small packages.

Ref Post 8....Seems we have a big contradiction there.

In the article, #9 on the list says:
Understands the gun. He respects the pistol and rifle, and he knows how to use them safely and effectively..........

OK, WHICH ONE IS IT?

[papertyger]

All in all, not a bad list except for the “white knight” crap.

[R. Scott]

Guess I’m not a modern man.

[Vaquero]

Didn’t read the article did ya? I didn’t either. But I skim, therefore I am. It is an article about an article. It gives the bogus man (original article)vs the real man (critiquing article)

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Ewwww.

[JohnG45]

A real man doesn’t read list written by others to know what he has to do to be a real man.

Couldn't have said it better.

[ArtDodger]

Someone sent this to me yesterday.. It isn’t even witty. One minute of life wasted. Could have been freeping..

[Joe 6-pack]

Other than the 10 Commandments, i should have said :)

[TalBlack]

Any man who claims to have known Woman to ANY extent whatsoever who would ever attempt to buy her either footwear or a “purse” on his own judgement is actually lying about his experience with the fairer sex or is a hopelessly egotistical ass.

Typical NYT. /spit

[ETL]

A real man doesn’t read list written by others to know what he has to do to be a real man.

Great advice! Writing it down now!
