FOR MALES ONLY Your thoughts on masculinity

[Ntwadumela]

I personally am a male who is comfortable in his gender and sex, and who takes pride in doing manly things and have a masculine demeanor as well as interests. I love wearing a nice suit, doing hard work, growing a nice beard, etc. etc.. However, I'm sure some of you have differing ideas, experiences and opinions on masculinity and what it truly means to be a man. What do you believe a man should be, and what are your personal experiences and thoughts on manhood?

I think that being male is fundamentally about taking risks. There are several culturally and subculturally varying things such as hair length and clothing choices but the one fundamental thing is taking risks which derives from the male reproductive strategy of producing more cheaper gametes

Given a choice at rebirth I'd always pick male. Always.

The...biological unpleasantness of feminity are enough for me to feel comfortable with masculinity. I'd never chop my 'nads so trans isn't an option I'd consider, nor is it dangerhair transtrender. So male seems like the best choice regardless of how you look at it.

I wasn't sure how to answer the poll at first because while my mannerisms are those of a girly faggot, I try to embody traits such as taking risks, assertiveness, dedication, and rational thinking, which I would consider masculine traits. I went with masculine in the end because I think that traits like these are more important than outward appearances.

To me being a man is to be able to sort out what are essential from what are not, and not to sweat over the non-essentials.

Among the least manly behavior I can think of right now is when a man insists on people referring to him by titles like Doctor, Professor, Major, or Sir.

And I never understand why some men fret over losing hair.

I'm comfortable being a man. Masculinity is a difficult concept for me to define. It's funny, because I am male through and through, but I'm asked what it means and I'm drawing a blank. I actually rewrote and edited this post several times to get something that I was satisfied with. The best definition I could think of is making sure you can be counted on. My dad, me, and my brother up until a few years ago worked the family business to support ourselves and the family, even my sister who tried moving far away for college and tried getting a job ended up relying on us on occasion. So to me, being a man is less about appearance but about making sure that those who rely on you can count on you. I had originally written down that work was manly, and I do think it is, but I feel that it can be covered under being reliable.
Though my definition is pretty old and traditional, and influenced by a vocation overwhelmingly dominated by men but it just feels unmanly and emasculated to me if I don't do what I promised to do.

men are icky but in that icky good way

 

[Army Burger]

I'm quite comfortable being male, but at the same time I'm not uncomfortable with acting in a more feminine manner. I mean, I'd never wear clothing meant for women, but I have long hair, and I don't really care about gender roles, such as women doing the cooking and cleaning, etc.

 

[NeverHappened]

I am man. I do the things. I would kill the ISIS if given the chance.

 

[lolwut]

Way I see it, things like appearance, personal dress, or being "macho" don't really factor into being a man. You just have to not be other people's bitch. You like the color pink? Good for you. Wanna wear women's pants? More power to you. Just don't act like a fucking doormat and let others walk all over you. That's all that really matters when it comes to "being a man," and frankly, that can just as easily apply to women.

That being said, my beard is iron, my blood is cheap vodka, and with my brazen balls I will hate-fuck my enemies into dust, because that's what real men do.

You came to the wrong neighborhood, hot pockets. Get out 'fore you give us all cooties.

 

[autisticdragonkin]

I think long hair is masculine because it shows your devotion to the gods and because it would have been involved in sexual selection in its evolution

I think that a man should try to be polygamous and any man who doesn't try to be polygamous is a cuck and not a real man

being a guy is hype

You save so much time by being able to quickly relieve yourself by using standing urinals. Have you seen those ridiculously long queues outside women's restrooms? They must spend 5% of their lives waiting in line to take a piss because there's only so many toilet stalls in women's restrooms and it takes so long to use a sitting toilet to urinate compared to a standing urinal.

im so manly i couldnt care if its a dude im so manly i know i only like girls so its okay

 

[WEEDle]

I'm a man, but I don't care. I don't think about my gender much, although I like having a penis, it's fun. I suppose I consider myself somewhat androgynous, and not in the "gender bender/gender confusion" kind of way, just in the way that some aspects of my personality/appearance/interests could be considered quite masculine, and others more feminine.

Pretty much this. It's the exact opposite behaviour of our favorite lolcows, feminists, and SJWs.

I think too many people get caught up in the idea that men should castarate themselves to behave properly, largely as a reaction against the hideous sexism of the past.

The only psychologically healthy way to organise society is to let men and women express their natural tendencies towards masculinity and femininity respectively. Every society has girly men and manly girls, but they're never going to be the majority, and are no excuse to force men and women to go against their nature in the name of panic.

The push towards emasculisation is the reason the modern West is infested with useless cucks like Full McIntosh and Anthony Burch. They might as well've lobotomised themselves with how much of their humanity they've eviscerated.
