THE WORD “MAN”
MAN -noun, plural- men, verb- manned, man·ning, interjection
*an adult male person, as distinguished from a boy or a woman.
So I don’t want to sound like I am bashing on California or men for that matter, but I am so damn confused! I am some what of a country girl from the mid west (Louisville, KY) and where I come from, men are so different than they are here on the west coast. I am used to the kind of guy who has less emotions than me, works harder than me, makes more money than me, takes ME out and pays, and at very lest has a place and a car of his own. It is the total opposite here in Cali. I moved here to the West coast 2 years ago and the majority of the guys I have met are all still boys.. very insecure and lacking in many important departments. Don’t get me wrong, I am only 23 and I am no example of the perfect young lady but at least I have my shit together, I am polite and I can make it n this world on my own. When I think of the word “Man” I think of my grand father. He was a mans man for sure! He was the kind of guy that never said the wrong thing, respected women like no one I have met since. He was chivalry to the T. He didn’t lie, he was very much standing on his own two feet and most importantly, he was able to understand and control his emotions at all times. To me, all those qualities are the things that make up a man and I have yet to find a guy here that has any of that. Half of the guys I have met don’t even like to break a sweat, cant change a flat tire, have never used a drill of a sort, unemployed, or simply way too insecure to deal with. It is so hard for me to believe how many wanna be “men” I have met here! It is so funny really…. Show me a guy with morals, a since of humor,motivation, confidence,a job and a mind of his own and I just may quit the bizz and marry him right then and there. I guess my question is…. Where dod all the real men go?
Hi Charley,
Men don’t exist anymore. We don’t believe in anything anymore except our self pleasure.
So we take what we can whatever happens bad consequences or not. That’s sad but it’s true.
Sorry for my english.
Keep on smiling
well thanks for being honest!
I am trying hard being honest because I feel guilty. I have caused so much damages and I cannot turn back.
Difference between women and men?
Women thinks in the future.
What’s important for men is the present.
So we grow up older later.
Hi gorgeous Charley,
I hope you still remember me. If you really want to quit the business and start anew, let’s continue the love story which started a year ago…… There are good guys and bad guys as well but in your case, it obvious that you kept stumbling on the bad ones.
You’re on the wrong coast beautiful!! Born and raised in Brooklyn NY with the same values as your “abuelo”!! If you ever make it down to Florida..look me up! There’s plenty of “work” in Tampa and the other Hollywood for you to do!
I’ll break it down like this. You watch “Dirty Jobs” on Discovery? The problem is that there’s a stigma with blue-collar work. But it’s blue-collar that makes the world go ’round. The host, Mike Rowe, is advocating for the skilled trades, because young pussy dudes don’t want to sweat; they want a desk and an A/C unit. Sweat builds character. If the douche hasn’t sweat in his life, leave him with his hair cement and Abercrombie “muscle fit” button-up. The Midwest may not have jobs, but it still has stand-up gentlemen, for when you visit, or, maybe, move back.
I moved here from Vermont, and I couldn’t believe the kind of crap I saw. People just expect someone to hand them a silver plate with a dream on it that says “Successful actor” and that’s because they all think it’s supposed to be that easy. News flash: it ain’t. It takes a lot of work, luck, and perseverance to remotely crack the acting/mainstream Hollywood world. I’m technically unemployed at the moment and I’ve NEVER been working harder at trying to make shit happen. I’ve even had some success at it too… (movie out on Sony dvd – tyvm! I just wish they’d fuckin’ pay me already but this business runs in quarters so I’m still eatin’ Ramen) – the point is most of the dream seeking no-talent assclowns that come out here are too into themselves to give a shit. If they could find one – half of them would live off a sugar momma while they looked for that perfect audition that would catapult them to be the next Brad Pitt that they think they are… when in fact they’re more of a “Sal Rubenstein” guest appearance actor on that show everyone will forget next year after it’s cancelled – IF they get the part. LA is the absolute worst town for dating women as well as men (apparently). I actually don’t date. It sucks, but since I’m broke my idea of a good time is a hike, a bottle of wine and sitting on one of the more reclusive beaches in Malibu that I know of.
Bottom line: where I’m from – we work for what we want. We don’t lie. We don’t cheat. We earn it. Period.
Oh, and men also aren’t hairless.
