The Manly Way of LifeThe Manly Man is a swaggering man, carrying himself with pride and self-assurance. He is not a follower and may not be a leader but, is unswayed by external forces. He goes where he wants, wears what he wants and says what he wants with no fear of condemnation. A real man may even eat quiche if it pleases him.
The Manly Man is not a quitter. Comfort and difficulty do not deter the Manly Man. He does his job to the fullest. He does not whine or moan about the task at hand but rather works beyond the call of duty. The Manly Man does not bitch. His attitude is "can do" or even better "will do". The Manly Man is most likely a Republican forging his own destiny, not relying on public aid and Democratic programs.
The Manly Man eats, he does not pick and sort his food. He knows how to order and can pick his own wine or drink. He likes spicy and robust foods and has a fondness for meat. He is not a vegetarian. If the Manly Man is required to prepare the food he prefers to cook with fire and may even use a red hot exhaust manifold under the hood of his car. The only magic he might use is the microwave, because of the possibility this method carries for "blowing things up".
The Manly Man loves cars. The manly car can be almost any car, except such blatantly girl cars such as pink Cadillacs. Color can play a part. It could possibly be a Gremlin or other AMC product. If the manly man must drive a "heap" he must know how to make it run. Remember his work ethic and self reliance. Most manly men can do up to 80 percent of their own mechanic work. Hot metal, burning oil and caustic chemicals are the manly man's world. Manly cars must serve their purpose first. ie. a heap with a boom-boom stereo is not manly. The Manly Man does not need air conditioning, a stereo or other worldly environmental controls. The Manly Man lives with the world he is dealt, besides what manly man has time to listen to the radio with all the wonderful mechanical music being made by his machine. This is why you will see manly men in loud machines.
The Manly Man likes to be entertained. He likes manly music. His music is a reflection of his way of life. It is not the Top-40 music made for the masses. It is honest, loud and individual. The Manly Man also like's movies. A favorite actor of the Manly Man is Clint Eastwood. There are a few things that distinguish and manly movie. Number one is smoke. A manly movie must have some form of smoke. It may come from tires, guns, fires or best of all explosions. The manly movie should also have women, but is not necessary. (ie Patton, Apocalypse Now)
The Manly Man loves women (not girls) and are his weakness. The Manly Man must develop discipline in this area. The undisciplined man may become diluted and may become Hen Pecked. At this point he is no longer manly, but is a servant to the woman. The Manly Man does not hit his woman. If he goes this far or pulls an OJ he has lost discipline and control and manliness. The Manly Man does not abuse his statue or power. He need not rape, beat up or use violence to get his way. The Manly Man if truly manly, and real women can readily recognize a Manly Man, usually has enough women to suit his needs.
Now having the outline to being a Manly Man, go young man and be an example of Manliness to all those whipped Girlie Boys.
