Have you ever heard of the rules of masculinity, and do you think all guys should follow them?
I looked it up on Wikipedia, and it lists 7 rules of being a man:
Physical--virile, athletic, strong, brave. Unconcerned about appearance and aging;
Functional--breadwinner, provider;
Sexual--sexually aggressive, experienced. Single status acceptable;
Emotional--unemotional, stoic;
Intellectual--logical, intellectual, rational, objective, practical,
Interpersonal--leader, dominating; disciplinarian; independent,
individualistic (applies to western societies);
Other Personal Characteristics--success-oriented, ambitious; proud, egotistical (applies to some societies); , moral, trustworthy; decisive, competitive, uninhibited, adventurous.
I'm only 16, and I don't think I'm all of that yet so I think I won't be a proper man when I'm older. I don't like sports, and I sometimes worry about how I look. Would you only date a guy who is exactly like that list?
