Foo - Your Definition.......

Inspired by this little gem~


So the question is, do women look at you or away from you when you bike?

In my case, I'm atheltic, attractive, and very real. I'm a real man. I won't pleasure a girl with gifts or false promises, if people enjoy me it's because of me, not some crap I give them. Basically when I'm on bike I found it that women will look at me if she wants too. It's like the easiest way to find out if she's shallow and something I don't want or want to know. If she's secure in herself enough to look at a biker, she's a right girl. If she's looking away, she's just a rat.

What your thoughts and experiences with this?

By women I mean women your age or younger that you'd consider dating and other things with. Not some old lady, ok, or a really ugly girl, alright.

I'm guessing that I must be missing something here.

So please tell me. What is your definition of a REAL MAN??

Opposite of "imaginary man"?

hehe, I'm waiting on this one to post ....

OK- I'll bite, but just guessing here, so be kind.

Someone who doesn't have a Presta between the shoulder blades nor a convenient foot pump :) Read: anyone with a Y-chromosome and a pulse and is a member of **** Sapiens.

Ryanf is that you?

WOW! Did the mods just crash this thread? I was trying to post there, and bingo, I lost my posting privileges! And now I don't see the thread at all.

I had the same experience - thought I had been a bad boy for a bit... :eek:

Noooooooooo they didn't trash THIS thread. The other one is missing. It was DJSlvt. Notice he never answered me other than to call me old, to call me nasty and to stop trolling........Moi? Trolling??

I don't think he got banned so maybe he will come on here. :D

So please tell me. What is your definition of a REAL MAN??Multiple qualities:

Successful in business (or academics for those still in a university)
Physically fit
Can defend his wife / girlfriend and family if necessary
Can command the respect of others
Can be trusted to follow through when he gives his word
Sets goals and accomplishes them
Hardly ever wastes time and lives life passionately pursuing his goals: Carpe Diem (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpe_diem)
Has NOT fathered children out of wedlock and from multiple women. This usually implies a deadbeat dad who's never around. The exception is the father who does stay around for his children.
Does NOT abuse drugs & alcohol
If married, is faithful to his wife
If he has children, is there for them and helps raise them

Surely not our Siu trolling - beside you are old, I am old. He just was in diapers... :D

I don't think he got banned so maybe he will come on here. :D

One can only hope :D

Okay - I will try to answer the question. A real man meets his obligations and keeps his word. He also doesn't use his strength or power to bully others (except for Internet Trolls - they are fair game)

Having the right set of chromosomes helps too. :rolleyes:

I would agree with this, and add that he's confident enough to trust others with his feelings.

No wonder he was jealous of your boots.

Real Man = efrobert

No wonder he was jealous of your boots.

Yesss, the boots. And the commanding attitude in the pic.

No messin with me ... in these boots!

Hey, isn't there a song about boots and such ... :D

Real Man = efrobert

;)

Oh dear me, typo time, I meant to say Siu "You aren't old" :eek:

Oh, and you have to be a real man to wear boots like that... or a total like of style (much more likely!)

Yesss, the boots. And the commanding attitude in the pic.

No messin with me ... in these boots!

Hey, isn't there a song about boots and such ... :D

The commanding look as given to my gardener as in "Make me look good for a change!" Alas, he only had so much to work with. :rolleyes:

I think the song would be "These boots are made for walking... " but I think it was sung by a real women.

Oh, definition of a real woman - a woman who would have nothing to do with a guy who declares he is a "Real Man" - agree?

That too for sure. Heck, he might even recognize one if he saw it...

And where did you bury the body :eek: or is that a secret? ;) I have seen your picture, you aren't old - especially compared to me. I probably have a son your age. My YOUNGEST is only one year younger than the grasshopper who wasn't very quick...

Oh Sui, you are neither old, nasty nor troll like.

So...more adolescent shallowness....this time from notzofast.


A REAL MAN knows he's a real man and doesn't have to act macho, worry about the color he wears or who he hangs around with. A REAL MAN is a REAL MAN and knows it....these other things have NOTHING to do with his MANLINESS.

I am a REAL MAN. I don't give a RatZazz what anybody things about me on (or off) a bike.

That singer would be Nancy Sinatra- Frank's daughter.

HEAR ME ROAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!

<applauds>

A real man doesnt care how others define "real man". JUST BLEW UR MINDS OMFG ;)

A "real man" simply is. Can't explain it much more clearly than that.

A "real man" simply is. Can't explain it much more clearly than that.

Yep- that's pretty much what Sartre said :D. Seriously, you're right- one can't define a "real man" any more than a "real woman."

Well that depends on what your definition of is is.

He's banned.

Well that depends on what your definition of is is.

I think you'll find that in the spray-on condom thread...

Oh! I saw that guy on a TV show once:

I could lay out all the criteria in the world and it would never begin to describe a "real man".

Hmmm. So a man has to exceed all the criteria in the world to be "real"?

Times have changed since Salt 'n Peppa just wanted a body like Arnold and a Denzel face.

Oh! I saw that guy on a TV show once

And here
I was being serious. I don't quite follow how you two thought of old 1950's and 1960's TV shows.

Never said that.

OK. I won't quote you.

Whoops.

You're absolutely correct.

Here's a little-known photograph of Ozzie, off to rescue Harriet. Now can you see why he's a serious real man?

how about...it can never be seen except for the momentary glimpse of love reflecting back in her eyes. :rolleyes:

Im missing something too.
does this member knows he's being quoted and discussed?
was this thread done for this 'little gem" like you called him? if so did he get a chance to respond? was he even told that there was a thread discussing him?
did he and that's why this thread got messed up?

Im lost too, :o

I say a real man is a person of his word. He is honest, well-mannered and means no harm in his actions. The manners may go out the window sometimes though....when in a room full of fools it's sometimes best to speak to them in the ways they understand best.

It's a thing males sometimes call themselves to feel more manly.

I won't disagree with this. It's a term to try to sound more macho. :rolleyes:
