I think you have no idea what you're talking about. Manliness has roughly the same meaning in most parts of the globe, and people like you want to screw up what has worked fine for thousands of years.reg42 said:

Imperfection. Flaws. Character. These qualities are found in every single living person, and there is no human being alive in the world who does not possess at least one of these qualities.
Flaws and imperfection define the average man, woman, and child, and without them, they wouldn't be human. Even if they make an effort, and succeed in correcting their flaws, and eventually better themselves, they will discover more flaws about themselves. It gives them character. It makes them more aware of themselves, and as a result, they become better people.

What makes a man, is it the woman in his arms...
just cause she has big titties?
Or is it the way, he fights every day?
...

DVDA is a funny band at times. =]
Though personally I must say the whole question is arbitrary and subjective =/

Well, Joseph Campbell had some interesting things to say about this in The Power of Myth. He decried the gradual stripping away of rites of passage in Western society - he used something entirely from his age, that children wear trousers now. That was a symbol of growing up in his time.Cowabungaa said:
We hear often the term 'little man' and see kids becoming more and more precocious, simply because their parents want 'best friends' and not children. Being a man is of course entirely subjective, and I would rather use the mark of adulthood instead.

No, it's probably the titties.
EDIT: Goddamn it, Ninja'd!
EDIT 2: Goddamn again! Ninjai'd!!
Anyway, what makes a man is probably the strength to stand up and hold your ground, physically, mentally and emotionally and progress forwards in doing the right thing.
That was wasn't needed. I stated my point of view, if you really have that much of a problem with someone on the internet (to the point where you need to insult me) having a different opinion than yourself, then maybe you should stay away from topics like these.Jonathan Wingo said:
I do know what I'm talking about, so if you want to continue what I thought was a civil discussion, then please, keep the insulting to a minimum.
Also,
I'm not sure where that came from. What is it, exactly which has "worked fine for thousands of years"? You didn't explain what that was.
How do you know? Have you studied the cultures of every race and people on the planet?
Biologically speaking, a penis.
But in all seriousness, a man is defined by two things: His courage and his word.
Courage, in the words of Clint Eastwood was "Being scared to death and saddling up anyway."
A man's word, well - that's his bond. If he breaks that bond often, then he ain't worth spit IMO.
Bravery isn't just confined to the armed forces, take a look at the Emergency Services for example.

Look, think whatever you want, I'm done with this little argument. I did too much arguing over in the March Mayhem forums, I'm getting tired of fighting with people who won't listen.reg42 said:
I somehow feel what actually we are talking about is being a stereotype of a macho man. I defenitly would never want to be that as despite their masculanity they resemble the mentality of a 5th grade bully boy.Jonathan Wingo said:
I agree with this. Get a place, get a job and rule over your own life.PayJ567 said:
So you attack me without making any sort of argument, I counter by stating my argument yet again, and then you respond by attacking me again and still not making an argument against mine, and yet I'm one of the "people who won't listen"Jonathan Wingo said:
Hmm...
It seems a bit like the pot is calling the kettle black.
If you're the definition of a 'Man' then I'll pass. I'd rather be a pussy than a dickJonathan Wingo said:
A man is someone who meets a nice girl and helps her. He erases her insecurities, he makes her feel loved when no one else will even talk to her, he supports her when things get tough. He starts a family with her, and provides this girl and his kids with not just emotional support, but financial support, gives them a shelter over their heads and puts food on the table. He protects them, from bullies and poverty alike. That, that is a man, in my opinion.
So a man who takes care of his family, as in takes care of the household etc etc, while his wife brings in the money is not a man?Vanguard_Ex said:
Wasn't my point. Not saying you gotta be a dick to be a man, but you gotta be tough to stand up to the dicks rather than be the pussy that gets fucked all day by them.MrPokeylope said:If you're the definition of a 'Man' then I'll pass. I'd rather be a pussy than a dickJonathan Wingo said:
