Okay ya fuckin bastards....before you get any ideas...I have NOT shifted over to the pastel side.
What the fuck happened to the men in the States?
At what point did a man being a man become a fucking bad thing??
Sure, we are smelly and dirty at times and we are also quite capable of being massive pricks, but, who gives a damn?? We are fucking built that way.
Why is it that it's now considered good for men to be in touch with their "feminine" side and constantly crying and "sharing their feelings"??
What's wrong with leaving the feminine side to the women???
Personally, I see nothing wrong with having to be the one that does the fighting/defending and being the one that the kids are scared will find out about the bullshit they have pulled.
When did it become more common for a man to be more adept at washing dishes and digging in the garden than painting the house or rebuilding the transmission?
What the fuck is goin on around here?
I am running out of buddies around here because I no longer know any men that like to go fishing or play some fuckin basketball. All the guys I know would rather watch some fuckin decorating show on one of the useless networks and are absolutely fucking TERRIFIED of a fight.
Has being a total pussy become the sole trait that women look for in a man these days? If so, why didn't I get the fuckin memo?

Goos has smileys to share!
Now as for the men being all wimpified, some are I guess. Mines not into decorating or anything girly. He does like to do the garden thing and grow stuff. He has worked on cars, painted and sucks at basketball but will play with us anyways.
He wants to go hunting, shooting, baseball or football games. He doesnt watch them on tv though.
He has held my purse in a store though. :wink:

Growing stuff is not something that I consider a "girly" activity.
That is something that is also in our nature.
To be honest, I have known very few older men who weren't into growing shit.
Real men can hold purses without worry.

Indeed.
I have done so on many occasions. As well as picking up the much dreaded YI remedies.
Real men have no shame!

LOL yes they do! Hubby even had to grab a pregnancy test once. They are kept behind glass at the store. So over the loudspeaker you hear " Can we get a dept manager over to the counter for a pregnancy test" He said he turned beet red but bought it anyway.
So let me get this straight J:
I shouldn't worry about my uni-brow or my nose hair?
am I at least allowed to not have hair growing in my ears? Man I hate that shit. Though I hate the word "metro", I do not see the issue. I mean, I get what you are saying but I think that there is a balance between the two. I was always this way, it wasn't like I got some PC bullshit going on and felt the need to be any sorty of girly like.
Who washes dishes anyway? I have a machine to do that. What I need is a machine that will go to work for me.
I think that I have found a nice balance between Rainbow Bright and Optimus Prime. (Looks down) Yup, it's still there...

Jasn, it really depends on how you define being a man.
Providing food for your family, whether grown, caught, or hunted is certainly an honorable duty.
How are we supposed to eat if we don't do it ourselves?
I agree with pretty much everything else you said. I don't take showers every day that's for sure...
However, sharing one's feelings does not make you a woman. Men have feelings too. Its not a good thing to be cut off emotionally. Trust me on this one as most of my teen years were spent as a stoic; I was emotionally bankrupt.
I'm not saying cry at the drop of the hat either, but having emotions is not a bad thing.

I'm starting to think... and maybe this is just me... that I'd rather blow my brains out then hold a fucking purse ever again, or have/use a pet name ever again, or say "I love you". when deep down inside under all the denial I never meant it, EVER AGAIN!!! I dunno, but women live in another fuckin' universe, man. It's like the ultimate "look at me" machine... and I fucking can't stand people's obessions with themselves, and the things around them.
I just think it's a mental prison... I mean, is that our only lot in life? Because, if it is, fuck it. It's a shallow endeavor to begin with.
That's just my opinion.... and yes I am quite bitter and completely turned off by the whole man meets woman thing. Man meets hand is so much easier.
I probably just haven't met the right person yet. Meh.

What you said, except in reverse. Word.
Last thing the 10 women in my life ( grandmother, mother, 3 sisters, wife and 4 daughters) need is a "guy in touch with his feminine side".
They need me around to tell em how it is from time to time and fix the car, clean up the dog shit, yell at the kids, punch out some obnoxious dweeb at the pub giving them a hard time, and so on.
Fuck PC and Fuck appearances.
If i want to drop the kids at school in moccasins, ripped jeans and a Sex Pistols t-shirt, then i damn well will.
If the missus isn't around.

bbbbaaaaaahhhhhhh.
Me it is usually BDU's and my steel toe'd field boots.
Yeah, thats right, I go around with no shirt on. thats just how fucking tough I am.

Just to clarify a bit.....
I have no problem with guys who are a certain way NATURALLY.
I cry too goddammit! hahahahah
What I'm talking about is the men who have mass migrated over to the metrosexual side to "fit in"
or simply because they are pussy whipped or hope to be pussy whipped one day.
Steve-o, not included.
He's pussy whipped but he's still a fuckin pimp.
If a guy don't dig fishing, hunting or raising some hell....that's fine by me.
I just fucking hate the fact that a guy fishing, hunting and raising hell is viewed as "odd" or "wrong" by many these days.
I don't hunt.....never cared for it. However, I'll fish as long as I can remain conscious and I'll throw down at the drop of a hat.............sometimes just for the fun of it. (Actually, always for the fun of it these days. My days of jumping on someone because they looked at me funny seem to have passed.)
If I ever do get my ass to Australia...I forsee several boxing matches between myself and mojo and, yes, they will be streamed live here at AmKon.
:P

Great, just great.
Paper disposable dicks for the ladies.
Although I can commiserate with the revulsion you must feel when having to be seated on some filthy public commode.
That was the worst part of living in my truck in the South Bay while going to school; relying on public facilities.
Hell, my dogs would go anywhere, but it's tough taking a crap in a bottle.
I knew where the best maintained privies were located and what times they were available.
The restrooms at the Great Mall were usually pretty clean, but the Jack in the Box down the street on S.Main were always gawd-awful grody.
Never eat at a place where they don't clean the shitters regularly.

i dont judge someone to be a man based on how many beers they can swill down during happy hour, or how many people they slug in the carpark after happy hour.
to me, a man should be judged on the way he speaks to/about and treats others.
big macho wankers slugging it out in a drunken brawl in the car park? no thats just a bunch of drunken yobbo's with no self control, and a poor excuse for a man.
it takes a true man to walk away from a fight and not get riled up.
i cop a lot of insults from cock heads at work but i dont ever let any emotion show, so some may say im a whimp for not getting abusive back.
i like to think i have more self control + better emotion stability than others who get riled up and threaten ppl over their own bruised ego's and over inflated pride..

Hell yes Jasn, hell yes. I have often wondered the same thing, masculinity (sp?) seems to be frowned upon these days. It doesnt mean we have something wrong with us, we are just men and by god that is a good thing.
I am not a brawler, but I dont really agree the whole it takes more of a man to walk away then to fight. I think fighting just for fighting is a young mans game and childish. However men are fucking warriors, we are supposed to fight one another, especially when some other son of a bitch is asking for it. I am sorry but I think the, it takes more of a man to walk away is an excuse that people that are afraid to stick up for themselves use. That is just my opinion and I really dont mean to upset anyone with it, so dont take it personal. I guess my ancestors were all fighters, I am more likely to punch someone in the damn face then walk away. As I get older, my fuse gets longer, but once that fucker burns out, go away.
That being said, oblivion you are right there is a lot more to being a man then fighting and drinking beer. Like taking care of your family, and a multitude of other stuff.
I think the problem is women watch all this TV and they see these metro fuckers on there and think, hey that is the perfect man. Then they get this guy that doesnt really care about shaving, doesnt dress very well, and would much rather spend a day out on the lake fishing then going to the mall. Then they feel the need to change him, if you want some metro guy, go for it there are lots, leave the real men for real women.
I hear all your are saying Jasn and agree 100%.

maybe in the stoneages we were supposed to fight one another, but we have evolved and generally know how to avoid getting in a fight in the first place.
its just words, so when some big mouth gets a rise out of you, you've given him exactly what he wanted while stooping down to his level (hejust wants to see he's getting under your skin)
its the "that S.O.B. asked for it" attitude that starts most of the wars because people are too easy to resort to violence and forceful means because of their lack of communication & negotiation skills topped off with anger control issues.
people who need to resort to insults and verbal harassment are just making up for their own inadequcies and also make themselves look bad.
are people really that thin skinned and defensive that they'll get in a fight over a few mere words? :roll:

There are still MANY fights that are very very hard to walk away from.
I'm NOT one to start a fight...
However, in a situation where someone is in need of defense that they cannot provide for themselves, I'm all over it.
