Authenticity. Does it matter?

 

I like to believe that I am a man of authenticity. There are moments of compromise, but this is something I desire. I long to be known as an authentic man. In reflecting on ay back from when I started this project the, I interviewed myself before anyone else and asked myself the core question of this project "If you were to describe what it means to be a man in one word, what would it be and why?" My answer was authentic as shown in the picture below.

My journey is intense. The Man Effect has taken me on a trek that regularly provokes me to a place of checking my motives and if they are authentic. For example this article on Emotional prostitution(Click Here For Article). Anywho, I am just curious if you think authenticity matters? Like to what extent is it good to be authentic? 

This short note seems a bit out of character for me but meh(shrugs shoulders). 

Cheers,

Timothy
