Sorry Nards.

The sex chromosomes in females consist of XX while the males have XY. Except in the rare case of testicular femization, all XY offspring will be boys and all XX will be girls. Each egg or sperm gets one member of each pair and so has 23 chromosomes. The egg receives one sex chromosome from the mother, and because the mother has two X chromosomes, the egg will always have an X chromosome. When the fatherâ??s sperm joins with the egg, it will also donate 23 chromosomes, on of which is the sex chromosomeâ??either an X or a Y chromosome.

If the egg is fertilized by an X-bearing sperm from its father, then the embryo will have XX, and that baby will be a girl. If a Y-bearing sperm cell fertilizes the egg, then the embryo will have XY, and the baby will be a boy. At about six weeks of gestation, the fetus begins to show sexually specific male or female characteristics. (http://mygenderselection.com/origins-pseudoscience/xx-vs-xy-the-biology-of-gender/)

Well, well. I guess it’s perfectly applicable in Thailand after all.

A real man develops a firm pimp hand and a left hook.

Confidence, resillience, courage & self-accountability, most other things are highly situational/individuial IMO.

I’d add:

Integrity
healthy fear
Self respect

Is it being prepared to do the right thing, whatever the cost? Isn’t that what makes a man?

a real man checks what others on a meathead website think about what a real man should be.

REAL men get in boats and travel to foreign shores to bath in the riches and rape the daughters of lesser men.

What ya’ll folks are describing is ‘modern’ man.

I think I posted this before but it fits in fine right here.

There was a Viking with the name of “Childlover”.

Because, this Viking did everything other Vikings did, like killing, maiming, raping and plundering, BUT he refused to kill children.

THAT made him the emo of the raiding party.

They basically called him a fairy.

That is simply on another level.

Eh, not much has changed really. Just different names called and tools used to kill them today.

I thought author Sam Sheridan had a good definition: a man is someone who knows enough to trust their own judgement.
