MANLY MEN |
Manliness in my view is about doing. It doesn't matter what you look like. It is the doing, the deeds, the actions that make a male man. Physical strength is never makes a man manly. Rather, it is moral strength that identifies the true man. The willingness to subordinate his own desires and aspirations to greater causes. Always stay on principle a man never blame others for their own failures or shortcomings, he accept responsibility for his actions and live with the consequences. some man are convinced it is somehow manly to produce children yet unmanly to take responsibility for them. This is why there are American house holds teeming with children but absent a father. consider also the domestic abuse what kind of degenerate think it is manly to beat a woman that he is somehow affirming his superior status in the world through violence against those he is intended to protect? Manly culture doesn't require much more than one genuine man living a noble life before other men. I think the more talk the less action. The more drama the less manhood. |
Man your territory. its what men do. Its how man love. Its also how increase comes.
The great male failing is just the opposite: neglect.
You can picture the scene. A man sits in his recliner wearing a stained t-shirt and sweat pants tv remote and beer in hand. He hard at the plant or in the office. Doin nothing in front of the tv is his reward. His field needs tending, though. His wife is hurting and exhausted. His daughter is almost never home and is becoming increasingly protective of her privacy and whatever that is in her purse. His son is awkward and pimply and growing resentful.He spends more of his time locked away in his room.
The house could be lovely but for a few hundred small repairs. The family used to church together and talk about important things. They used to do family projects to make money for their beach trip each summer.
The family hasn't laughed together or even had an uninterrupted meal in months, the yard is horrible the neighbors walk by shaking their headsThey used to serve at the homeless shelter.
Now only harsh. resentful words pass between them. Money is tight. Each life reveals its deepening damage. The man and his wife have not touched each other in years.
This is an extreme example. The key to change is in his hands. All of these things are happening on his watch. He is responsible. He doesn't own the lives in his home, but he is responsible for them-for their spiritual health and heir moral rectitude and the sense of what they area made to be. He's responsible to provide for them, help them fulfill their purpose in this life. He does not have to do everything but he is responsible to make sure everything gets done. Finally fashioning the physical part of his territory so it makes noble living possible. It is all his to guard and cultivate, no watch over and maintain.

-Men need to push themselves into zone they don't control-that in fact isn't actually a zone.
-True men do things manly things. Mere males who wants to seem like men just talk. Manhood is in the doing.
-Man improve upon himself.
