What makes a real man?
A question asked by every woman out there, making every man desperate for the answer. The essential key to understand the complex nature of women. As far as I am concerned, I need to understand the concept of "real men" to begin with and the slick use of the word "real" here to subjectify men.
Real.
Real.
Something that is true, actual, not imaginary and sincere. An adjective used to describe an object or incident. But not men. So what do we understand from this? These so-called "real men" are true, actual, not imaginary and sincere. Often a description of physical existence. Then all men are real. Aren't they?
The emphasis is brought onto sincerity.
"A combination of intellectualism, understanding, honesty, chivalry, self-control , capability, passion, confidence, physical strength and empathy. Is that too much to ask?" any woman would say.
Well, sorta, kinda, in a way, yes.
I am not the most considerate person, not at all, but there's nothing that angers me more than unrealistic women who crave the "perfect man" whom they have illustrated in their immature minds. Also, if you can think about it, all these characteristics are somewhat conflicting.
"Men are pathological liars, they function like animals. They're no good," some say.
Not sexist, just the effects of a broken heart.
"Women are uptight and control freaks they are no good," others say.
These "others" are accused of being sexist, terrorists that posses nuclear weapons and other weaponry of mass destruction.
I hope my sarcasm was blatantly noticeable.
I am really beginning to think that I have watched to many click-flicks this summer and it has done me harm.
