What It Really Means To Be Masculine

[Anonymous]

This myTake is the male version of What It Really Means To Be Feminine.

You love...

Video Games And Action Figures

You are competitive which is why you like to compete in those games.

Any Color But Pink And Purple

Talking About Politics

Yeah even if you had no involvement in it...

Watching Or Playing Sports

Math And Science

Just about anything that has logic in it.

Nature

Your favorite activity is hiking, boating, camping, and etc.

Sex

Bragging about how many people you slept with is a competition contest.

Money

It equals more success.

Your XBOX

And you are..

Brave

Assertive

Confident

Ambitious

Independent

Logical

Courageous

First rule of masculinity:

Don't let females define masculinity.

[mostwomenshouldstfu]

True, except that notion you mention is on her list in some form, "logical" contradiction.

[Gommers]

@mostwomenshouldstfu doesn't matter. women don't control the world, men do and always will

[mostwomenshouldstfu]

Pointing out the seeming paradox. But point still stands, go about your thing, and don't let random women dictate what you are. Exceptions and rules change when committments are made to lasting relationships, hopefully it grows into a partnership.

[idkwtftoputhere]

These types of mytakes are fucking stupid.

[LunaLawliet]

Yes.

[SinisterS]

Bunch of nonsense...
First of i know guys that are masculine but ware pink funny thing is some of them dont even look less masculine.
Games, toys, sports... really? I like games cos am kind of geek (said kind of) but thous things are immature not manly its have to do with your hobbies and interests not manliness. Some guys that are in to sports and all are gay or not that manly. Some that are in to sports are not competitive and only person they compete is them self making them almost shaolin monk alike close to hermits and they usually end up being stronger better and all but still dont compete some dont even care if its manly or not or what is what...

Only thing that i agree that is in common for most manly guys is logic that and ability to change, fix, make things you dont like different not just tagging along and going with the flow...

Wow this is the most stupidest thing I've ever heard of what makes a man masculine. If anything, I would like a virgin boyfriend (because I'm a virgin) for my first time. Someone that brags about how many people they slept with, regardless of gender is a turn off.

I'm also good at science and math; I'm into video games as well too. I don't need a guy's money to be successful myself.

Over-complementing girls, hitting on them like crazy, approaching any and all of them, cat-calling them, slavishly groveling before and worshiping them on the streets, is not masculine, no matter how much girls want to believe it is.
It's actually being women's ego boost-slave with no honor and dignity, is what it is.
Does that mean not hitting on, approaching and asking out girls at all, like most White men do, is the way to go? Obviously not.
There is a nice middle ground here.

[SleepingSnorlax]

I don't know man
Im tired of hearing woman make threads about what makes men men... there is no real answer to what a manly guy is...
Tho i will gove you probsbcause this almost rubs off as a "as long as you're youreself you're a man" which is what i like
So thumbs up to you

[iCroissant]

This is a tongue in cheek example of what society requires of you. You have to brag about how many people you've slept with, you have to be rich, independant, athletic, and assertive to be a man, according to society.
She is stating the pressures we put on men.

[Smmyskittles]

How many more takes like this am I going to see?

Honestly, starting to wonder how many of these are trolls.

- Dude can love pink AND purple, just shows how confident in himself he really is. Especially if he's got muscles... mmm.

[HotDogg]

I like wearing a tight pink button down shirt... lol, maybe I should get a purple one too!

[FrankReynolds]

This primitive rubbish to join the cave man and the dinosaurs in the garbage pail of extinction. For starters over a 100 years ago pink was the color for men blue was the color for women. A "real man" is another form of slavery. A real person thinks for them self. People are getting murdered for this garbage. Thanks but no thanks.

[Alex88F]

being masculine is taking care of business, standing up for yourself and basically have a general "who gives a shit about what people think" kind of attitude. and standing against BS
it's Self Respect and Self Love

[howzit2015]

I am getting tired of seeing people define "what it is to be a man" every day. I would assume it's like being a woman, or more accurately being a HUMAN BEING. Stop tell me how to act or behave based on the organ that dangles between my legs.

[TheTruthHurtsImSorry]

Yay, another woman telling men how to be a man because they obviously know from experience! Woohoo!

[MagiAlphaOne]

"Bragging about how many people you slept with is a competition contest."

COMPLETELY DISAGREE!

[Reallio]

Ah, a woman explaining what it means to be a man. Logic. You are not a man, why are you acting as if you know what it's like being a guy? Fucking hell xD

[Puppylove94]

I don't think it's manly for a guy to play video games lol

I think a lot of those are your preferences which is great, but mine are slightly different. I did agree with all of the qualities you mentioned at the end tho

[Anonymous]

I don't doubt that the listed personality traits define manhood (and womanhood), but as far as the portion before it...

I love the color purple.
I understand how math can be important, but it can still piss off when it's not needed.

I put the interest in science, nature and politics under the 'intelligence' category: which can also define man (& woman) hood.

Women really need to stop writing this kinda of crap. It is offensive and just wrong.
You have no right, and we don't care what you want or like.

[Queen_naki5]

Most likely a joke or some little kid wrote it.

[YourFutureEx]

Everything except X-Box. Could have been PS or PC master race.

And where are cars?

[Anonymous]

This is best take I've ever seen on this site.

[FakeName123]

You managed to make this MyTake as bad and shallow as the previous one. You must be a real catch.

[Anonymous]

Why do women keep writing these? No woman will ever truly be able to speak for a guy.

Seriously, let the guys do what they know and you stick to what you know.

There is no harm in that.

[Miezko]

Whoa! Hold the phone, are you trying to say PlayStation is girly?

But seriously, masculinity can be summed up in one word, assertive.
