When the fragile are cared for, it’s a sign of strength. The feeble should be able to find a safe place in the company of men. Rick Bundschuh

If (by Rudyard Kipling)

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

This is a man’s world, this is a man’s world
But it wouldn’t be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl
You see, man made the cars to take us over the road
Man made the train to carry the heavy load
Man made electric light to take us out of the dark
Man made the boat for the water, like Noah made the ark
This is a man’s, man’s, man’s world
But it wouldn’t be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl

Steve J said 6 years, 10 months ago:

You have no argument from me…

Natalie said 6 years, 10 months ago:

I didn’t think so ^.^

Steve J said 6 years, 10 months ago:

Men have a website, so it is easy to be a guy!

http://www.artofmanliness.com/

It has a filter on it that prevents women from looking at it – cool eh?!

Natalie said 6 years, 10 months ago:

I can not believe you looked for a website for manliness…

Steve J said 6 years, 10 months ago:

I have followed it for awhile. I knew most of it already but…

rinseandrep said 6 years, 10 months ago:

@natalie-geroux have you ever looked at a website about womanhood? (edit: maybe womanness, or femininity, fit better in this comparison)

Natalie said 6 years, 10 months ago:

No, I really haven’t. Have you?

rinseandrep said 6 years, 10 months ago:

@natalie-geroux Probably some version of a yes, yes. Do you already have strong positive models of it around you?

My role model would be my mom. She’s one real ass kicking woman (not in the literal way)

Steve J said 6 years, 10 months ago:

So, she wasn’t a farmer?
