Cowboys. “The competent man” in literature. Our fathers.

These are the templates we have for what men should be.

Unfortunately Gen. Z only has us.

Peter La Fleur : There’s someone out there for everybody.

Owen : You think?

Peter La Fleur : Absolutely. In some cases, there’s two somebodies for one person. I like to call that “the jackpot”.

Don’t go changing yourself to suit or impress the object of YOUR affection. Being a phony only escalates the need to keep one-upping and reinventing yourself into something you’re not. Just be yourself, more importantly, be true to yourself. If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be... you’ll find that special someone, and vice versa. Or, that special pair... JACKPOT!

I wonder what these super sensitive metrosexual types are going to do when the time comes for them to step up in a crisis.

A few years age, when we were planning the sudden funeral for my father in law, my wife asked me how I could be so clinical about it.

I told her that there are times when you must put feeling aside and deal with what needs to be dealt with. Feelings can come later.

My job was to console my wife, kids and mother in law and take their burdens on my back for a while.

Go ahead, call me toxic. I don’t care. I call it strong masculinity and it was and is appreciated by women who know how to be women.

Yep, that is what I thought also. But how come all of these pieces never talk about the little girls struggling to get away from old "Uncle" Joe Biden??

Yep. So many mixed social messages from women. Guys have become confused and disillusioned to the point of just bugging out (MGTOW). Basement video gaming is the Millenial guy’s man cave. And women lose (dates, relationships, marriages, families, security, fullness).

“I call it strong masculinity and it was and is appreciated by women who know how to be women.”

Many fewer American women know how to be authentic women today. A proggie-indoctrinated, victimated and confused group are they. And sad. Some foreign countries’ women are still good at it, hence their popularity as wives.

Flame away, gals 😁

“I never knew a woman who didn’t hate weakness in a man.”

And, IMO, that is why so many wives/girlfriends just keep turning up the volume. They are looking for a reaction of some kind.

I know some younger women who don’t yell, don’t even scream - they screech - don’t even sound human. And - you guessed it - it’s usually at the men in their lives.

I’m a woman.

I had to do that when my big brother died or Mom, Dad and the rest of the family would've fallen apart. After the funeral, they flew his remains a couple of states away for burial in the traditional family plot. I offered to stay behind to look after the farm.

Their car wasn't much more than an hour departed when I broke down and cried like a baby.

I believe that is exactly why. They can’t publicly rehabilitate that kind of behavioral anomaly (YET).

“... friends of my wife....all female. About 8-10 of them, mostly young in their 30s...”

That’s not really young anymore, as they all are about to hit the wall. Looks fading fast, biological clocks winding down, they have already passed their prime child baring years and lost most of their value to a man looking for a wife and mother for their children.

The gift of feminism just takes.

**************************************

Women now are being raised to believe they are men, just with breasts.

Tougher, smarter, stronger, faster, better than any male at anything.

That’s the indoc.

Actual men want nothing to do with those women. Thankfully, there’s enough women that see though the indoc for what it is to keep the gene pool filled... for now.

In their defense, a Gen Z male college student is operating in an environment where “I like your dress” can get you expelled. We get what we reward, not what we think we want.
