DON’T BE A SISSY!!! What does it really mean to be a man?
Is it a physical look, is it a mental thing, or both? Sex is between the legs, Gender is By Kelly Wheadon between the ears. So what does it really mean to BE A MAN. Short hair and beards? Muscles, rough and woodman like?
Is it about being able to change a tire, change the oil, or repair things? I struggled with this concept most of my life. Physically I didn’t look like a man but mentally I felt I was. Men aren’t supposed to cry or show emotion and open up. On one hand you hear, “You’re not sensitive enough”, “ you don’t care, you don’t show your feelings to me”. Then on the flip side you get, “don’t show emotion, suck it up, get over it”. Better not talk about what is bothering you or feel anything. What does it mean to be a man? Heck what does it mean to be a woman? Men showing emotion, “they’re too sensitive”, men not showing emotion, “you are insensitive” Why is it that men are to be the breadwinners, working hard and providing for their families. Yet the majority of women take care of the household and the kids. What about the man that can cook and clean but can’t fix a car or change a tire... Are they any less of a man? What does it really matter?
