How to respond? Here's a masculine concept from a Navy guy...
Responsibility
It is a unique concept.
It can only reside and inhere in a single individual.
You may share it with others, but your portion is not diminished.
You may delegate it, but it is still with you.
You may disclaim it, but you cannot divest yourself of it.
Even if you do not recognize it, or admit its presence, you cannot escape it.
If responsibility is rightfully yours, no evasion or ignorance or passing the blame can shift the burden to someone else.
Unless you can point your finger at the man who is responsible when something goes wrong, then you have never had anyone really responsible.

Excellent description of what it means to be a man.
The definition of what is and what is not manliness couldn't be more clear than between "slick willie" and our current president.
