How Unmanly Are You?

[Revoltingest]

OK I think I can top that, at least in a way.
In high school I play sports, was as macho as I could be, chased every skirt I saw, married my high school sweetheart and had a child at age 17. It was less than 7 years before another pretty skirt caught my eye and in the process of chasing her I ruined my marriage. Fast forward 40 years or so and here I am at age 63 unmarried and alone! Three failed marriages, 2 more kids and many hours, days, months and years of regret and sorrow! My two youngest kids won't even return my calls and I live with my oldest son and his wife. My urge to chase long gone along with any kind of meaningful relationship with the opposite sex. What was that old song "No Phone, No Fool, No pets...I ain't got no ......"

Criminy! That's not girly....that's just rough as a cob.
May things improve for you.

I'm not really manly at all, I just wear these sunglasses and shaved bald head just make people think I am lol.

Even though I once had a job designing orthopedic surgical tools, I hate the sight of injuries, blood & exposed flesh or bone.

I am also a very big Sigourney Weaver fan.

Mmm, she is so tough and manly...

 

[Smart_Guy]

I hate football, don't like fighting (I like fighting tho), love kittens, like staying at home (don't go out much), watch romance anime...

Bro look at your avatar....you are a manly man

You quoted someone and the quote feature chose another name? Not again!

Traditionalist male gender roles are something I find nauseating, personally.

Supposedly a man has to be "thick-skinned" like Teflon in order to be worthy of respect, and any emotional vulnerability earns a man a hearty dose of contempt, totally detracting from any other strengths he may have in other areas.
Being the recipient of compassion and empathy when emotionally vulnerable is a woman's prerogative. Apparently.

Yes, I really have met folk on the Internet who not only hold to such rigid views, but were happy to aggressively impose them on me. They were not morons, but highly articulate folk too, of both genders. Maybe a touch on the sociopathic side though.

I do a lot of cooking. Though the way I do it isn't "unmanly".

I guess the least manly thing I've ever done was watch the anime "Vampire Knight" when I was in high school. I also read the twilight books. I only enjoyed the anime. I did not enjoy the books.

The following is a test.
Do you find this video hilarious, boring, or offensive?

Funny. Very funny. But. Had to think about it.

OK, guys (just guys, or gals who identify as guys)....we all
have some dark secret which threatens our macho image.

In junior high school, while other guys were practicing on the football team, I was
in an after school art program. I think I was the only guy. Was I even a "guy"?

Top that, you sissy wannabes!

You mean you preferred the company of girls after school, rather than wrestling with dudes in tight pants and then sharing showers with them?! weirdo!

I used to do skipping in primary school(the only boyt)....tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor, rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief.
In grammar school, I chose to do further maths instead of football
(especially on those freezing days)

I used to cut my girlfriends hair (in my teens) and I have shaved the heads of 2 of my 3 wives.

Girls.....I had no idea how to deal with them anyway.
No, I was far lamer than you give me credit for.....I was in it for art.

I cried when Old Yeller was barking at the bear.

Well that was probably a more noble pursuit then, although many great artists were also prolific womanizers were they not? so the two are not mutually exclusive!

Noble?
Hah!
I'd like to take that over "lame", but that would be put'n on airs.

Wasn't me...I'm old...but not that old

I consciously color coordinate all of my clothing (the shame).

I went to a pricey men's clothing store and bought a fashion Oxford red plaid pants.
very classy but loud.

then one day one of the top cheerleaders shows up wearing the same thing!....
on the same day I show up....wearing the same thing!

boy!.....was I red!

My art teacher was also amazingly hot.
And she thought I was an insensitive jerk.
She was correct (really), so I respected her judgement.
She was helpful in that respect.
