What’s your favorite thing about being a guy?

[Iwant2kno]

[wankiam]

not having to cope with all the false expectations thrown at women by media, cosmetics companies, surgeons, clothes makers, women that have had babies and think you should just because you have a vagina, pink paint salemen, shoe makers, victorias secrets, and last but not least... most men. i know as a man im privelidged in that im free to just be me and thats why im also a feminist

[wankiam]

thanks for mho... i see one man downvoted me lol... says it all really

[Grond21]

I love the drive and focus. The desire to pour myself out for someone. The physical strength and ability to project my presence. The overwhelming power a woman's beauty has.

[Iwant2kno]

Those are very strong thoughts and feelings too. Do you think is easy to project your physical strength and your presence in such a competitive world?

[Grond21]

No, it is very challenging. But the competitiveness is less of a block than the crisis of masculinity

[Iwant2kno]

What do you mean by crisis of masculinity?

[Grond21]

Men don't know how to be men. They don't know how to find the way, and they don't know what it looks like.

[Iwant2kno]

According to you what is to be a man?

[Grond21]

I have been looking for a definition for a while. But I am not sure yet.

What do you think it is to be a woman?

[Iwant2kno]

That’s quite a surprise that you don’t have a definition for what is to be a man. I would have thought it’s almost defined.

I think that to be a woman is a bit complicated but it does show great maturity when she knows she can do anything and be humble about it. That she is responsible for her words and actions, that she has the awareness of her surroundings. A woman is able to emphasize with the world and the people and has respect for them, for herself and for knowledge. Also when she doesn’t take anything and anyone personal, when she always does her best, when she doesn’t make assumptions, when she’s impeccable with her word, and is always in the hunt for more knowledge, a woman who knows she’s everything and yet she’s nothing because she has the same fate as the rest! I’m not sure if that made sense to you? 😄

[Grond21]

Yeah, I think that does make sense. So a woman is someone who is aware of both her potential and her limits. She has integrity and is honest. She is self aware, and aware of her environment. She is motivated by love and understanding for others oh, and she always seeks to understand others in the world more. And she knows how great she is, which makes her humble, because she knows everyone else is great too.

I suppose I'm getting a bit philosophical about this, but I'm trying to be accurate. I can make a description about a man, but that's not the same thing as a definition. It doesn't get to the core or the heart of what being a man is. And I also don't want to just describe a good human. I want to focus on what specifically being a man and masculinity are.

[Iwant2kno]

Yes, but the understanding that she is everything and yet she’s nothing is more of..”I know I have the potential, awareness, integrity and the capability of procreation and yet I’m not superior than the rest because in the end we all have the same fate which is death”. Being a woman is more than beauty, giving birth, a menstrual cycle and personality. I think her level of awareness, sensibility and and humbleness are equality important.

It would be boring if you try to define men, because every single one has a different attitudes and talents. I’d say being a man requires maturity regardless of what personality or ambitions he might have. I think it fits you to be philosophical and express your ideas! 😉

[Grond21]

That's very interesting.

Okay, I will give it a shot! A man is someone who is mature and who knows the value of hard work. He takes responsibility for his own actions and for those under his care. He gives for them and does not expect anything in return. He does it because he loves them. He takes his duties seriously, and his role as a leader, as a husband, and as a father. A man demands respect from others, and gives it in turn. He is strong and humble, fierce in war and gentle at home, keeps his eye on the prize and enjoys beauty of the moment. He knows who he is, what he wants, and he takes action throughout his life that is in line with this

[Iwant2kno]

Wow, you’re definitely describing a tough man who demands respect with a noble heart and strong appreciation for others and life. It’s hard to make that balance but it is easier for men to do that. If women were to do it, we’re called a bit%# for it! 😂

[Grond21]

Yeah, that's true. And if men were to try to be confident and feminine in the way that women can pull off so well oh, he would be called a wimp

[Iwant2kno]

😄😄😄😛

[Grond21]

Thank you!

[Turkishkurd]

I think advantage of being guy
Physical strength
No periods
I don't think there are other advantage

[Mia_pearl]

I love a man’s deep voice.

[SlothySlob]

I don't have the need to use make up to feel or become beautiful.
I don't need to spend hours deciding how my hair is supposed to look.
I don't have the need to spend hours what type of cloths I'm going to wear.
I can get stiff and everyone will notice, but I don't bleed from my dick every so often.

In other words, I don't require high maintenance to maintain high level of sex appeal which allows me to save time and spend it on hobbies and people I love.

[LogicBomber]

Although these are YOUR reasons for why you like being a guy... I disagree.
- Men equally have issues with their appearance. We just can't wear the makeup women wear to cover up our insecurities.
- Women don't need to spend hours deciding how their hair looks, they just do it because they want too. Some men spend just as much time on their hair.
- Guys who actually care about how they look, spend just as much time picking out their clothes and spending time on their appearance, we just don't get the easy attention that women get for the effort.
- Getting hard and having people notice isn't a benefit. Bleeding may be the only valid statement for why it isn't shit being a dude.

Women don't need high maintenance to maintain sex appeal, actually women have a much easier time having sex appeal than men, they can be in joggers and a messy bun and look just as hot as a made up fully decked out female.
MEN have to work hard to have sex appeal, to be a male women desire the way men desire women, you need to put in a shit ton of work to get to and to maintain.

[SlothySlob]

@LogicBomber That's cute, but question is about MY favourite thing about being male and not what are the advantages of being male.

If you wish to generalize things, then yes, everyone needs to maintain their bodies in their percieved ideal the opposite sex desires, or same sex dependning on individual kinks.

[LogicBomber]

@SlothySlob... which is why my first line stated "Although these are YOUR reasons for why you like being a guy... I disagree."

And call it cute all you want... it doesn't stop it from being true.

[SlothySlob]

@LogicBomber The cute thing is that the question is about the individuals take on their own experience being male, and not males vs females.

[Liam_Hayden]

I love being able to wear the same five suits week after week, after getting ready for work in less than 30 minutes while never having to worry if I'm going to start bleeding from my private parts.

[Iwant2kno]

Good answer! 😊👍🏼

[Mitch1985]

Honestly I don’t have a favourite thing about being a guy. I would still be as happy with my personal life progress and how far I’ve come, happy with my body, choice of job had I been born a female.

[Retep1]

Physical strength, not being high maintenance, more emotionally composed and peeing anywhere with ease 😋😂

[LogicBomber]

Nothing. If I could have chosen to be a female before birth, I would have.

Being a white, western female is like going through life on easy mode with all cheat codes enabled.

[Jackblue]

That I am not really afraid to walk down the street.

[eMaNnUeL]

You should be. You're statistically more likely to be mugged

[LogicBomber]

Unjustified personal paranoia is not a gender specific issue.
Women are entirely less likely to be attacked than men walking down the street.
But when we focus on the small number of females who are attacked on the street and create campaigns pushing a false victim narrative, women become paranoid about fictional monsters.

[BobbyC65]

Having a penis and to be able to stand while peeing.

[Wise_man]

Muscular, powerful, wise, intelligent and feels for others. I am talking about men not boys though.

[DDpsy]

Physical strength
Security
Amazing looking genitalia.

[Anonymous]

I don't have a genetic need to trap the opposite gender with marriage and children. I can be single and perfectly happy with it

[Tohotforyou]

I used to not mind being single, but now I wish I had someone to love and be my cave.

[ImpressiveUsername]

Peeing while standing.

[genericname85]

that i don't bleed from my genital once a month.

[Deathraider]

Not attracting people all the time.

[vekin]

[slatyb]

Peeing standing up.

[eMaNnUeL]
