Not only is this serious, but I truly believe all men now should qualify for a government bailout. It should be enough for a Colt 1911, 4wd Jeep with big tires with a lift kit and glass packs, couple cases of Jack Daniels, and a carton of Marlboro reds.
Including cost overruns and government bureaucracy costs this should total about 17 million per Manly Man.
I suppose you think terrorists are the ultimate symbol of manly...you know...crashing planes into buildings and blowing themselves up.
?
She-it.
“You know what Patton said in that movie. Wars are all about killing, and armies are all about wars. Pretending otherwise is a waste of time.”
Wars actually occupy small intervals of time, but armies are permanent. A very small percentage of military men, and now women,see combat.
This article would be incredibly funny if it wasn't so true.
Look what wussess that German men have become. Their heritage as Hun invaders of the Roman Empire, pillagers and plunderers of the Middle Ages, the German Wermacht, and now? A bunch of sissy latte sippers. Ditto for the Norwegians, our former Vikings.
It is also the endgame for we Yanks if we don't reclaim our manhood.
Buy a handgun or shotgun, join the NRA, and shoot once a month at either the skeet range or indoor firing range. [I started this last year and it's GREAT.]
Start a poker game, monthly, with buddies. No wives or women. Smoke cigars, talk sports, tell jokes.
And any other ideas. Meaning, stop watching chick movies to make your wife or girlfriend happy, and do guy stuff instead.
Me too! Me that too!
“Yet,they are grooming themselves like San Fransico gentlemen.”
Just keeping their options open?
The military exists to apply force in support of political objectives. That usually involves violence, often it requires additional measures. Ultimately, absent the capacity to destroy the military is of no use.
Our military is asked to do more today than ever before.
Not really, although we are making far more demands of the volunteer force than we have in the past.
Make no mistake, the range of operations in OIF/OEF and worldwide is not new, except to this generation.
Wonder what the wives/girlfriends look like. Wussies around here dont get many dates at least from females.
What do either of these 2 know about masculinity?
The 2 biggest pu$$ie$ ever in our government.
The two you mentioned are just the very tip of the government iceberg. I can think of only a few who display masculine traits (and at least one isn't in government any longer). The rest fall into the metromale sub category.
It’s interesting that you define authentic manhood in terms of play and useless risk-taking (except for the shooting). How about getting together with your male friends and planning to get your sons out of emasculating schools to teach them yourselves? Start a program to teach boys auto mechanics, carpentry, or woodcraft skills. Poker and smoking are for wimps - take a real risk and witness to Moslems, or tell your employer that actually, you think homosexuality is wrong, and you’ll be polite to gay fellow employees but refuse to participate in “pride” activities.
(These are plural-rhetorical “yous,” other than the first one that references your post.)
Philips Innuendo Man: This is brilliant. I sent this to a lot of friends who used to work for Philips, to let them know about the exciting pure-science research being conducted in the laboratories there. ;-)
Choosing to see the glass as half full, this certainly makes it easier for women to tell the men from the boys!
To be honest, I’ve thought for some time that it is much harder to raise a son these days. They have fewer and fewer examples of real men to look up to and emulate.
When you see a deer you see Bambi
and I see antlers up on the wall.
When you see a lake you think picnics
and I see a large mouth up under that log.
You're probably thinkin' that you're gonna change me.
In some ways well maybe you might.
Scrub me down,
dress me up,
oh but no matter what
remember I'm still a guy.
When you see a priceless French painting
and I see a drunk naked girl.
You think that riding a wild bull sounds crazy
and I'd like to give it a whirl.
Well love makes a man do some things he ain't proud of
and in weak moment I might
walk your sissy dog,
hold your purse at the mall
but remember I'm still a guy.
I'll pour out my heart,
hold your hand in the car,
write a love song that makes you cry.
Then turn right around
knock some jerk to the ground
'cause he copped feel
as you walk by.
I can hear you now talkin' to your friends
sayin', "Yeah girls he's come a long way
from draggin' his knuckles and carryin' a club
and buildin' a fire in a cave."
But when you say a back rub means only a back rub
then you swat my hand when I try.
Well now what can I say
at the end of the day,
"Honey, I'm still a guy."
And I'll pour out my heart,
hold your hand in the car,
write a love song that makes you cry.
Then turn right around
knock some jerk to the ground 'cause he copped feel as you walk by.
These days there's dudes gettin' facials,
manicured, waxed and botoxed.
With deep spray-on tans
and creamy lotiony hands
you can't grip a tackle box.
Yeah, with all of these men linein' up to get neutered
it's hip now to be feminized.
I don't highlight my hair,
I've still got a pair.
Yeah, honey I'm still a guy.
Oh my eyebrows ain't plucked
there's a gun in my truck.
Oh thank god, I'm still a guy.

Liberals are PU$$IE$.
Conservatives are REAL MEN.
Actually two of the my colleagues (in Dallas no less! Not Austin) have pretty OK looking wives.
Here is the wierd thing. They are both strong Christians and go to one of the mega churches near DFW Airport. They are both faithful to their wives.
So their logic is that if the wife wants them to get waxed “up top” and “below” they better do it as that is the only way they can have biblical relations with the wife. Of course I don’t think their wives are blatant about using sex to change their men (and maybe they are doing it subconciously) but their wives are always telling them how they should be more “sensitive” and “clean” and “soft” to make the husbands more attractive to their wives.
All I see is the fact that these women have gotten their dream come true. They are fully changing their husbands (the dream of all women everywhere). But as the old saying goes “Be careful what you wish for...”, I feel that one day these women are going to wake up and see these men fully neutered with their shaped eyebrows, hairless bodies, body washes, pedicures, moisturizers etc and then suddenly wonder why the could not have married a “Real” man.
Just as a final aside. One of the younger married women in my office was discussing how she wants her husband to put on some concealer as his skin tone is uneven! I was thinking to myself.. Oh. God.. here we go.. the only thing that was missing.. makeup!
That's truly creepy. It sounds like Dallas has been invaded by aliens.
