Guys, would you feel emasculated if a woman saved your life? (Page 2)

[admles]

No.

I'd think less of any man who felt that way.

A real man would be grateful to whomever saved him.

[mT2359]

when I was younger I might have thought like that in some dark corner of my brain. Certainly not any longer. If you know the value of life you would be a fool to think like that.

[Vanjasper]

I would be happy my life was saved. Why should it matter if a woman saved it.

[Nice_Guy_Last]

Gosh mo. Overwhelming thanks alone would be my reaction

[greycadillacs]

I certainly hope this question isn't serious. No I would not feel emasculated.

[RedThread]

Hell no. I'd thank her for saving my life. I'd feel like I owed her one.

[Unit1]

"Guys, would you feel emasculated if a woman saved your life?"

Not a chance.
What else should be done if not for a life-saving woman?
Female doctors and nurses are saving lives every day! 👩😍😍
What a... (excuse me but) stupid question.

[Unit1]

I mean it's a stupid question but a legit one :P It was worth asking is what I am saying :)

[fenixx0083]

This is sortof the antithesis of that save-rape satire-thing: if you don't like it, she can throw you back in 😁

[rocsteady12]

hell nahh il just ve happy to. be alive ans plus a fine women like wonder women saved me 😍

[WhiskeyBrain]

I would feel like I owe you my life. It's not a mans job to save my life its whoever did it.

[OrdinaryGentleman]

No, i would be like "great, now i owe you a kiss and a night in bed"

[Likes2drive]

Not if it was Wonder Woman 😊but I think I would be grateful and not feel like that

[lord_chilled]

Id be feeling a bit too grateful to feel emasculated.

[WhereAmI]

If it were Wonder Woman, you'd effectively be her bitch. :/

Be glad it's only a movie.

[Drunky_Monkey]

No I'll be extremely happy to be alive and I'll give her a high five

[iFarted]

Gal gadot can save my life anytime

Idgaf who saves my life cause I just got saved! ain't no time to feel like a little bitch.

[Troll_warlordd]

No , last year , a seventies yo female doctor save me from being totally blind , and this is real , not a movie lol

[you_asked]

Anyone under 30 years old has already been emasculated by the doctrination by our public school system

[Iron_Man]

No gender has nothing to do with that. I'll be thankful for anyone who saved my life

[Regular1]

No, but I would certainly feel emasculated if I had paid money to see Wonder Woman.

[Naydyonov]

No, women can also be heroes, its just less often in the context this post seems to be about

[Dr_Latex_McPeggin]

Not at all, if I need the help I do not care who does the saving...

[John583]

No, absolutely not. I'd find it actually very attractive.

[matthew1144]

I wouldn't it would be just like a guy doing the same thing that doesn't make a difference to me

[TwinFace]

doesn't change a thing how i feel about her since day one 😌

[jesusnicolas97]

Nah bruh I would be thankful she saved me and didn't let me die

[NinjaEnte]

No, why would I? if I am in a Situation where someone else had to save me, why should it be different if a man or a woman saved me.

[NightOwl8801]

Never , I'd feel I owe her.
I for one would be thankful

[YHL6965]

I will just be grateful. I mean she saved my life, I'm not gonna bitch about it.

[Malik00]

A woman i could trust with my life? Are you kidding? I would be head over heels for her!

[red07net]

If it's a mouth to mouth breath then very much but still at least I am alive.

[chrisxmichael]

Not at all. If you make a big deal about someone who just saved your life then maybe you should have died.

[CaptainKibbles]

Lol no I would be happy I survived and. could not thank her enough

[avin00]

Never a woman is the one who gave birth to me... So.. a woman can also save a life...

[Phenoma]

I've been savwd from. drowning by my aunt and my sister as a small child. Glad they were there.

[fastsly]

my reaction would be fuck I'm alive. who cares about the gender of the person who saved me.

[1truekhaleesi]

Well the alternative is to die

[Shiiara]

I dont thing that makes sense tbh

[ladsin]

Shit, save me. I don't wanna die.

[NaultD]

I think I'll enjoy life more then my pride

[drummerdude25]

Wonder Woman can save my life anytime! 😍😅

[Allebana]

lol this is not a serious question is it? 😂

[lord_chilled]

Its kinda legit.
And by legit i mean every guy would kinda have a little discussion about it in his own head.

[Allebana]

@lord_chilled really? that's bad, like really bad D: for me it would be the same if a men saved me, or a woman or a child..
sometimes I think men are too proud for their own good

[lord_chilled]

Yeah its true. But its just part of our nature.

[Allebana]

@lord_chilled too many people use that phrase these days lol like a mantra, more like an excuse actually

[lord_chilled]

Well in this case its actually true.
I mean there's no point in trying to fight or hide your nature.
by the way, i notice that thetes a double standard to this.
People dont challenge this when it comes to fay men or women. When its something regarding straight men, were always challenged when we say" its how we are".
And then there's a lot of unnecessary shaming going on. Like "fragile" masculinity, "insecure",,,
Like we can't actually express our true nature.
And yet, you ask us to be open with our emotions.
Its like you want us to be something else

[lord_chilled]

*there's
*gay men

[Allebana]

@lord_chilled I don't know, how do you draw the line between nature and nurture? it's something that confuses me
I know straight men who are stoic and don't talk about feelings (esp previous generations) but then I know men my age who actually enjoy talking to me (or so they say) because I listen and don't judge..
so how much of it is because of how they were raised and how much of it is "just nature"?

[applesandbannanas22]

people who are convinced easily scare me. allebana, do you really believe this idiot when he says someone is near death they are thinking ''omg a women better not save me or I will be emasculated!'' if lord really does feel like this, then he has a abnormal thought process to be thinking about this when his life flashes before his eyes

[lord_chilled]

Nature is something thats is seen universally, in all men. The idea of masculine behaviour is different in different cultures. For eg: the masculine ideal behaviour in america may be seen as rude and unsophisticated in east asia, where they have a different outlook on masculinity. But of you see things common in men across most ages and culures, its pretty sure that its nature.

And about the feelings part, men do talk about their feelings, but with people they are comfortable around to be vulnerable.
Usually older men dont feel that way with a younger girl, younger men who are close with you probably feel okay in your presence.
Also , the previous generation of men was taught not to show as much vulnerability, something which the newer ones werent taught.
So this case is definitely nurture

[lord_chilled]

@applesandbannanas22
I didn't say this is what i or anyone thinks when were about to die.
I said this is something pretty much all guys will think about when its brought up as a topic (like now).
I mean sure there are guys who would just straight say i wouldn't care i just wanna live, and there are guys who would say nope, id rather die, but i think most men will actually think about it, because they are somewhere in the middle.

So whats up with you trying to put me down a peg in the comments , eh?
Am i smelling whiteknight? I think i am...

Also i had an experience where i tought i would die,
And at first my tought was how im gonna get out if this, and whwn i realized i can't, i jist tought about if i had a good enough life to die, and actually tought to myseld, well all things considered, it was pretty good.

[Allebana]

@applesandbannanas22 no I don't' believe men think 'omg a women better not save me or I will be emasculated!'' lol my answer was regarding the "its just part of our nature" thing which I don't believe either that's why I asked where does he draw the line between nature and nurture because according to him men are shamed when they say it's just how they are but I think it has more to do with the way a person is raised

[Allebana]

@lord_chilled a lot of that shaming thing comes from men, I never made fun of a guy for expressing himself but I have seen other guys do it
like you said the definition of masculinity differs depending on the backround, but usually the men has to be strong and in the western culture being associated with feminity is a shame and so is being bested by a woman... or saved I this case "Its kinda legit. And by legit i mean every guy would kinda have a little discussion about it in his own head." this would be as in you couldn't do it yourself so you needed a woman to do it for you, like not being man enough or something like that?
lol I really wanna understand

[lord_chilled]

no i dont mean the kind of shaming that you are probably implying. yes, men do shame each other when we display "weak" behaviour, especially in male dominated places. like the army for example.
but thats in order to build up character, strength and personality. most guys do take the challenge and actually grow as a person, since most men are very competitive in nature. unfortunately on some men it can have a very negative effect, and sometimes the guys can take it too far like in bullying. but ball busting is pretty normal, guys do it all the time to feel each other out.
shaming what i meant is like saying that our masculinty is fragile (when a guy is working on it) or saying he is insecure (for legitimate reasons, and following his instict) is mostly done by women, and sometimes just reinforced by other men seeking female approval (aka whiteknights)
and being strong and being associated with feminity being shameful for men is pretty universal in all cultures, not just western culture

[lord_chilled]

and there is again a reason for that, being masculine, or more specifically doing masculine activities usually takes effort. it is rewarding too. but unlike being feminine, being masculine is something that you kinds need to "obtain" ( this is kinda my personal opinion, I don't know maybe girls feel the same way about being feminine, i wouldn't know) so society kinda promotes men to be strong and shames men for acting feminine ( where they are actually just being less masculine, not really feminine) because society needs strong masculine men. just as you need nurturing and caring women, strong men are fundamental. thats why these things happen. but i know that extremes can have negative effects as well.

back to our main point, yeah i guess its kinda like you said. its like we would think we should be able to save ourselves and not be saved.
that wouldn't say that we dont appreciate it, its just our own egos messing with us.

[lord_chilled]

and if its just a bunch of guys i find that men dont care that much and the pressure to appear tough is off a bit. when there are women, and especially when a woman actually saves us, a lot of guys feel like that girl is gonna think im weak forever probably. which doesn't feel good.
big hit to the ego, lol.

basically it may sound stupid to you, but every guy has basically an ego like that. some just hide it, some suppress it, and some are completely out of touch with it, and other guys are completely controlled or consumed by it.
if you watch or ever watched dragonball z , you may know of a guy called vegeta. thats probably as accurate as a physical manifestation of a guys ego goes. like from all the characters i have ever seen. the guy is literally ego, lol.

[rjroy3]
