Real men can do these five things (Page 4)

[livingthelife19]

This should have been titled how to be a gentleman. I would estimate less than 20% of men under the age of 35 actually know how to do these things. How many men don't know the value of Trust, commitment and compromise in a relationship. There is more to life than going around having sex with whoever throws themself at you. I can't think of too many of my friends that possess all 5 qualities here. Well written post for sure.

[Moonchild714]

Interesting, I do like these qualities in a Man. Although the Tie thing I find it sexy to tie a Man's Tie. The Protector part for me we bith have that covered. But for the next few months I'm laid up so I am hapoy knowing he can protect us but I also sleep with my weapon cocked and loaded...

[D_Bone_Steak]

I meet the criteria, but, I think if you just boiled away all the excess juices, it would boil down to a guy that solves the basic problems one might face.

A problem solver. Then for some reason he'll get bonus points if he can listen to stupid problems and just empathize instead of offering solutions to them.

So I don't fucking know. I just fix shit she feels overwhelmed to do... I just want the sandwich after.

[lightbulb27]

You would have done amazing in the 1950's. The only thing missing was grow a garden and rustle up the cows and horses if got em.

yep, I got most of those (except fighting... I have to use words to overpower), guess I'm almost a real man? But it's all training.. so many kids are trained to be sissies... feminized jobs... no dad households... but they sure can program your router!

[razelove]

I agree with all of the above except the monogamy. It's a nice idea, but lose it, and you just have trust left rather than a need to be the one and only. I do understand people unwilling to go back to polyamory/andry/gamy after being burned in the past however.

Jealousy is the biggest one I've seen tear people up there, but I've seen jealousy and cheating tear up monogamous relationships too, so, what do you do?

[SomeGuyCalledTom]

Decent list, although i also think a "real man" decides for himself what values/ life skills to aspire towards. I also think women overuse terms like "real man" to subtly manipulate men in certain cases. Not to say thats the case here, you're just sharing an opinion of course. But if a man tried to suit every womans personal "real man list", he'd go insane.

[Wowgirl30q]

Thank you and I'm sure one will stew and make a females version. This is ruffling some feathers it seems

[Dav1ss]

Good take really I'd be interested in a gender reversal of the same

[Wowgirl30q]

That would be and thank you

Real women can do these 5 things ↗

[broken_heart_at_48]

How many men running around wearing suits do you know that actually change their brakes let alone know how to but hell I've taught my daughter's how to change a tire, the oil, windshield wipers, bulbs including headlights, and brakes. They know enough to show up their boyfriend's anyways. So I wouldn't consider such things as knowing how to work on a car. If they can explain how a basic combustion engine works or what 3 things does an engine need to run.

[JayParris]

Can't argue with that. The monogamy part might need some details added. He should be able to control himself when other women show attraction, and if he can't, he should be honest with his woman instead of sneaking around behind her back. Because a committed relationship is a promise, and men keep their promises.

I'd like to see your take on 5 things a real woman can do.

[Zweihander]

Oh I'm so sorry I was never fortunate enough to grow up with a car or parents that made an effort to teach me how to drive/provide a car for me. I guess I'm just not allowed to be a real man for another 5 years until I can afford to have a car.

[madgoat]

How about: "real men" have their own moral compass, think for themselves, and don't need their behaviour defined and dictated to them.

[KrakenAttackin]

BINGO! Men do not need another listacle written by women to tell us how to be a "real man".

[Liam_Hayden]

I agree, although on the Know Basic Auto Work I would be forgiving of people who do not want to deal with modern brake systems. They can a royal pain in the derriere.

[Wowgirl30q]

I knew you would be in the 15% 😊

[Anoniemus]

Real men have XY chromosomes or socially identify as men. Archaic gender stereotypes are toxic and likely attribute to the depression many of them face.

[The_man_whol_aughs]

No some of them are required

[Anoniemus]

Disagree.

[The_man_whol_aughs]

Not for women but for men

[Anoniemus]

Disagree. Men should be what they want and not bounded by gender stereotypes.

[The_man_whol_aughs]

No some desires are better off locked up

They should a bound , how weird would it be for a man to cry , get his nails done and wear a skirt

[Anoniemus]

Why should anyone be forced to be something they are not? If that’s you, fine, but don’t speak for other men.

[The_man_whol_aughs]

Because whoever they are is never good to society

And if you really gonna shit like this it's giving rapist , murders , serial killers and mass shooters the green light

[fashionguy17]

Ah... look! Another take of a WOMAN explaining what a REAL MAN is! Women don't know what a real man is, because they aren't men. Just as a man cannot explain what a REAL WOMAN is because isn't a woman.

[ScottSummers]

Dude dont bother. She is writing ridiculous my takes like this every few days. In one of her takes she even wrote that men with clinical depression shouldn't treat it with medications doctor gave them because they can give ED problems and can't satisfy women as women would like. Pure nonsense and ignorance but hey at least she is funny.

[DonCachondo]

@ScottSummers oh god that depression take is heinous O, o

[XavierSteele]

Interesting and informative as always. There is shortage on real men according to recent studies, in order to provide to the customers and delay the wait they are offering knock offs at an astounding rate. That way when the product inevitably becomes defective you are able to replace it with no problems. Warning though, the products that are being pushed onto the market will require dedicated care and occasional changing of their manpons.

[lava0501]

That is awesome! I am starting to think there are a shortage of real men in this world and too many women. I have heard a few men make a comment that there is plenty of women in this world so why not have many relationships.

[Wolkmi]

I only agree with the last one and owning a suit.
-Be a Protector. Both spouses should take care of each other, nobody should be aggressive.
-The provider thing? Everybody need a job and budget money to living, even in Middle Age women work too.
-Know Basic Auto Work. Very stupid, even if a man is conservative why it makes him less man not to be interested in mechanics?

[Bootylicious905]

Men would say 5 things they want in a women would be

A women needs to be good cook.
2) Know know to do laundry
3) Know how to satisfy her mans needs daily or weekly.
4) Take care of his money wisely and be good to his mother.
5) Dress to impress sexy and respect him.

[Jon1108]

Dam, y'all need a few MEN in your neck of the woods

[David_Kek]

Real women can do these 5 things ↗

[Rangers]

One issue I can see with these is the levels at which they can do some of them will be judged on a very subjective manner. Other than that, it's good. I cringe when I hear guys be like "leave it to the police" in response to me recommending that they take concealed carry classes, at best it'll be a 3:00 response time, a whole lot an intruder can do to you and your family in that time.

[apple24]

I am sorry but this is fuckin stupid!

[Wowgirl30q]

Thanks

[WhiteShoulder]

What about that do you think is stupid?

Just wondering. I’m bored and I like debating people.

[apple24]

@WhiteShoulder you can't put a whole gender to a stereotype and call it a real man. Thats like say a good women is who like to sleep around and Clean the house. Yeah its fuck up

[WhiteShoulder]

@apple24 actually, sleeping around and cleaning the house are mutually exclusive... in other words, the same woman doesn’t usually do both.

Change “real man” to “good man.” Someone you’d wanna get serious about dating. Do you agree then?

[apple24]

@WhiteShoulder no because everyone has their own definition of dating...

[WhiteShoulder]

What is your definition of dating?

[apple24]

@WhiteShoulder this really isn’t about me. What ever your definition of dating or whoever you have a romantic interest is your problem. I think it stupid to have all those requirements but that’s just me. I am just saying that it stupid to have a checklist like that. Obviously that’s not how life work. Your being way to idealistic. I’m also like that but it’s wrong. Men shouldn’t be force into a label to be consider real men. Men are men and women are women without having to jump hoops to reach each other expectations

[Wowgirl30q]

@apple24 was a very rude response. You could have worded that in many other ways to express your dislike for the mytake. Without sorry, sounding like a bitch. I've always been kind to you and that comment was uncalled for. Seriously I wouldn't treat you like that that's not nice and that's not cool.

[Wowgirl30q]

I thought highly of you and your usual kindness.

[manmeat]

@apple24 i agree it makes women out to not be able to provide or protect them selves.

a better man would support the woman to achieve what ever she wants just as she supports him to do same. its so one sided what wow wrote

[Rob19777]

I'm amazed by how apple is getting attacked for simply saying she doesn't agree with this mytake (which by the way the mytake was completely asinine to begin with) so as a result whiteshoulder and wowgirl have to attack apple for simply disagreeing with an asinine mytake. In case they haven't figured things out by now cars aren't built the same way they were from the 70s and prior their components and parts changed to more computerized and electrical components that need specific electrical test machines and different computer diagnostic tools to repair a lot of components in a car. Even fixing a basic car tire isn't like it used to be where you take off the hubcap grab a lug wrench after lifting a car on a jack and start unbolting. Nowadays just to fix a damn tire on some cars you need to have a bigger and heavier car jack that can support certain weights of certain cars let alone heavier trucks then you have to make sure the tire doesn't have a luglock on it like some cars do and if the jack isn't big and strong enough that car could come crashing down on you and let me tell you it took me weeks to recover from my shoulder injury when a 2500+ or 3000lb Subaru fell on my shoulder because I didn't know the jack wasn't strong enough or about the luglocks. Cars changed vastly and unless you know what you're doing you can get seriously hurt like I did repairing one which is why going to automotive school is important for that sort of thing and expensive as well

[Rob19777]

also with the suits (which is another stupid point you made btw) getting pants to fit right on athletic guys is very problematic especially for me since I have a tiny wasteline but the ass, thighs, and especially crotch area are always tight as hell making wearing jeans or any pants other than sweats extremely uncomfortable for me. And second some suits that are fully fused rather than fully canvased or half canvased can still cost a lot of money even if it cheaper made. And unless you're at a special occasion like a wedding, funeral, Wall Street stock exchange, or lawyer appearing in court owning a suit is rather pointless and dumb. And even then a fully fused will suffice over a fully canvases or half canvases suit but even then the fully fused get expensive and not worth the price

[Rob19777]

And as far as loyalty is concerned women need to look in the mirror first before passing judgement onto guys because the amount of branch swinging/monkey branching questions I answer from women vs guys is 99% to 1% and if you don't believe me go through all my opinions and you'll see for yourself.

[Rob19777]

So to sum it all up your mytake is full of shit wowgirl and you and whiteshoulder should really quit hanging up on Apple and learn to be Real Women

[Rob19777]

And also if the car jack isn't properly secured in the car's frame holes by the door then it can crash on you as well. There's a lot you really don't understand when it comes to fixing cars. Only a few things are the same barely changing oil adding antifreeze and that's about it but even with oil there's different viscosities you need to know and which one is the best for your size engine and with batteries you need to know what size battery you need. And with replacing a tire you need to know what size tire you need which should be marked on the tire itself but not always and to repair a puncture in a tire good luck finding the hole and knowing how to plug up a hole or how long that plug will hold for. Do yourself a favor wowgirl before making stupid posts like this educate yourself on mechanical basics of car repairs. And I'm not even going to get into the field of auto body repair.

[Rob19777]

Also you NEVER made it clear what field of fixing cars they need to be good at. Is it fixing and replacing tires or replacing batteries and spark plugs is it changing oil and air filters or replacing engines (which requires a big garage to do) or are you referring to painting and/or autobody repairs such as replacing fenders or door panels or doors themselves or hoods or trunks since most cars are made of plastic and or fiberglass and whole pieces need replacing and can't be banged out with a hammer or sometimes welding like the metal fenders of cars from the 70s and prior used to. Or are you talking about frame repair which requires a lot of welding skills or are you referring to fixing electrical issues or rearview cameras or gps computerized maps. So again you need to elaborate more clearly. As far as owning a suit you never stated what type of suit a guy needs to own if it's a fully fused fully canvases or half canvased or who has to make it in order for you to deem a man a Real Man. Next time elaborate more. Oh and does the guy need to have accessories like a watch if it needs to be mechanical Swiss movement or automatic you know the windup or battery watches and who has to make it. Or what kind of shoes and style for the suit and which brands. Again if you want to make asinine mytake do some research first before making yourself sound stupid with old cliches

[Rob19777]

And with the suits you never said if it had to be single breasted or double breasted or if it needed to have the opening flap in the back. So again wowgirl educate your puny simple mind first before making dumb mytakes and picking on Apple for merely expressing her opinion because I can go on and on all day about how dumb you and whiteshoulder really sound right now. And just for the record if a guy needs to have all these qualities to be a real man what qualities do you bring to be a real woman. Like I said I can do this all day

[WhiteShoulder]

@Rob19777 no one’s attacking her, but I don’t think @apple24 has ever had a boyfriend before. She might not understand the subtleties of this stuff.

[Rob19777]

@WhiteShoulder and neither do you apparently since you seem to have vastly poor reading comprehension skills. Now why don't you scroll back up and read my opinion on what makes a woman a Real Woman and start applying that to yourself

[Rob19777]

@WhiteShoulder and if you're still wondering it's the 5 things that make a real woman but I listed 10 though

[WhiteShoulder]

@Rob19777 why would I care?

Tbh for me auto repair isn’t a big deal but the other things are vital. Especially monogamy.

[apple24]

@WhiteShoulder I don’t care what people think this is my opinion. @rob I don’t know what you consider a real women but men and women need to get along. Men are very sexual and usual want sex. And women are emotional and usual want talk to someone. This of course is generalized and idealist. This is all stupid and I am done with bring each other down. I just want to point out that people are idealist

[Rob19777]

I totally agree apple my opinion above was sheer mocking and sarcasm

[Izumiblu]

Hate the high water skin tight slacks with the suit. Have no idea why that’s a thing. Didn’t have time for a proper fitting.
