Decisive

 

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

"I would choose the word decisive because I know there is something manly about someone that knows and is sure about himself... I think someone who is more masculine is more secure about himself, they know exactly what they want to do. I know I feel more masculine when if I decide something really quickly and I am not wavering and I am like steadfast in my decisions. "

Word: Decisive
Occupation: Software Engineer
Age: 25
From: Kansas City, MO

Who is the manliest person you know and why?

"My Dad, because he knows how to read people so well and pick up on things some other person would not be able to do... He can do subtle things that will make my mom really happy." 

Do you wish you were more masculine why or why not?

"I don't care either way. I don't wish I was more masculine I don't wish I was less masculine, I just want to be myself... I don't want to desire either way."

What advise would you give your younger self about masculinity?

"Anything that stops you from making your own decisions, even if it is a cultural norm, you just gotta remove all your thoughts about whats normal and think outside the box and make your own decisions."
