Why is it said "be a man" but not "be a woman"?

Why is it said "be a man" but not "be a woman"?

[MCheetah]

They DO say "be a woman." Specifically though, they use the word "lady."

"Act like a lady."

[Phoenix98]

They do though haven't you ever heard the saying act like a lady?

[Vivaldi]

Is it said when a woman is being a man?

Why not be a woman or lady?

[Vivaldi]

By gender, I am male but I would never be a man.

If I were born opposite gender, the problem would be sold. Nobody could tell me "be a man".

[Phoenix98]

To make this simple so it doesn’t get overly complicated.

Men tell other men to act like a man. They do not say act like a woman because your not one. Not from a scientific standpoint. Biologically your a man and that will never change because that’s controlled by chromosomes which can not be altered.

Same thing applies to women.

Also you are by its very definition a man the proper definition of man is an adult male.

To deny that is to deny biology, science.

Are you saying your not an adult male?

[Vivaldi]

I am an adult male but I am not a man.

[Vivaldi]

Being a man requires a lot more features than being an adult male. I don't have those features.

[Phoenix98]

When you came out of your mother what was attached to you? A dick or a vagina?

[Vivaldi]

You know being a man isn't about having a dick in the society.

[Phoenix98]

I can’t give you an answer if you don’t answer the question.

It’s part of it, because it deals with chromosomes which wether anyone likes it or not determines what you are, for the most part.

[Vivaldi]

In the soceity, being a man is a lot more than being an adult male.

[Vivaldi]

In Gender Language, I am a man.

In Soceity Language, I am not a man.

[Vivaldi]

Otherwise you wouldn't say "be a man" to an adult male.

[SaoirseS]

We say it to each other, just mot in the presence of men.

[Vivaldi]

Girls saying "be a man" to other girls?

[SaoirseS]

No, we say act like a woman.
