If you were to describe what it means to be a man in one word, what would if be and why?

"To me a man must stand for things that matter. To stand up for those he loves. To stand for those who can't. A man must have or work towards a character that is upright, honorable, and willing to sacrifice for what is true and good. To be the love/face/hands of God as much as humanly possible."
