What Happened To The Manly Men?

I was having a converation last night with someone who will only be identified here as "Slothy" and it dawned on me that the modern world has seen the slow decline of the manly man. What happened to the man who could wrestle an alligator with one hand and chop wood with the other? The guy that would lay out a drunk who was hitting on you without even pausing from drinking his beer? And we're not talking light beer here either. And don't even THINK about drinking it out of a glass. During my conversation with Slothy I defined my ideal man as one who looks, talks, walks, and acts like they could defend me from a bear if necessary. And replying "but bears are scary," like Slothy did, is unacceptable. I haven't dated a bear fighter for long time, if ever. Sure, there was Jas the paratrooper green beret, but I'm sure he would just blow up the bear from a distance with an unneccessary amount of explosives. Other than Jas though, I haven't dated a guy who could beat me in an arm wrestling contest in quite awhile. And I'm a really bad arm wrestler. So yeah, I know I was being a little extreme, but it would be nice to be with a guy who made me feel like I was being protected, even if I don't really need it.

Moral of the story-Guys, you need to be the guy. I know I'm probably setting the womens' liberation movement back a little bit, but most girls still want to be girls. We want to feel coddled and protected. Just don't open the door for me, that's annoying.

Don't know how to respond to that. You need a brawler, whose ready to open himself up to catching an errant beer bottle on the head or perhaps prosecution to show he's a man? (Here's another moral of the story: "I was trying to be a bear-wrestling manly man." Doesn't hold up too well in court, while facing an assault charge. Don't let "Road House" fool you.) As far as being like a protector, I'm all for that. I don't think you need to be overly aggressive to accomplish that. "The true strength of a man comes not from how he fights, but how he diffuses the situation without fighting." I've always said that. Of course, I've never been a paratrooper, either.

Hey, guys like that don't seem to get attention from girls, thats why all of them have started to act so feminine and join the metrosexual trend... Im not some beefy bar fighting, bear wrestling guy, but I at least have the "protecting" abilities... although I am not sure I could beat you at arm wrestling... I don't do that so much :P But then again, maybe some girls would really not be so interested in a future cop because they dont like what we stand for :-p See? I just can't win, so I am going to go stand outside in the rain and lightning and enjoy myself...

Later.
