Not to worry, I'm sure Lee, NoGo, Barney, and all the other poo flinging liberal miserable socialist pussies will chime in soon.

Thank a leftist feminazi for the pussification of the American male. Woman can't make up their mind what they want and gay agenda pushed by the media has made it seem OK for these pussies to, well, act like pussies.

It's a cycle that will only lead to shrinks making mega bucks off folks like Lee lying on the couch fretting over his jeans make him look fat.

Speaking of real men - Larry Craig.

(Look elsewhere for coverage)

Apologies - Jay Tea pulls through!

Cassy, you've broken every guy's heart here by acknowledging you have a boyfriend.

Speaking of real men - Larry Craig.

Someone like jp2 would think that's a real man.

(Look elsewhere for coverage)

You mean, like the post prior to this one?

But not to fear. Certainly leeward will be, ummm, all over this story.

Why would I disagree with this woman. Her experience clearly is dating like minded wingnuts as no other self-respecting male would go near her. How does it feel to be called a pussy by one of your own boys?

JFO, if you have sny self-respect at all, it's because you're the only person deluded enough to give you any respect.

I have seen this change in men in the last 20 years and do not understand it. What are we saying to our daughters that we compete for hair dye too?

I am married to a real man, and today is our anniversary, and I wrote a tribute to him!!

I hope that this trend ends, because like the cowboy before, I do not want a real American to fall to the wayside for the likes of a metrosexual man.

Ultimately, he's the one who should be in charge.>

Correction: Ultimately, he's the one who should think he's in charge.

Some men confuse being controlling as being powerful. They are usually the abusers.

Some men think we want them to be sensitive when we really want them to protect us, stand up for us, be there and be counted on to watch our backs.

We don't want a Ken doll or some metrosexual type.

A man of steel and velvet, a secure self-assured man comfortable in his own skin. who is honest and trustworthy, a "can do" man, not a man who whines about what he or everyone else can't or won't do. And definitely not a braggart. If you have to brag about being a real man or all the things you do or own that you think makes you a real man -- you aren't.

WOW, it all reads like a John Kerry or John Edwards bio.

Hit a sensitive nerve there did I pus...err John Irving?

JFO, obviously masculinity is not an issue for adolescents. Time for you to grow up.

Cassy:

I heartily recomment Christopher Moore's A Dirty Job, a hearty defense of the Beta Male. I won't spoil the whole thing, but suffice it to say that according to the theory espoused in that book, the Beta Male multiplied because the Alpha Male, he of conflicts and dominance, went off to fight wars with other Alpha Males, and the Beta Male was left behind to comfort the widows ...

--|PW|--

Ah, I found it: Moore's hilarious essay on the Beta male. A taste:

That is, when the alpha males were out charging after mastodons, the beta males could imagine in advance that attacking what was essentially an angry, wooly bulldozer with a pointy stick, might be a losing proposition, so he hung back at camp to console the grieving widows whose Alpha-male mates had been stomped into mastodon moss. When alpha males set out to conquer neighboring tribes, to count coup and take heads, beta males could see in advance that in the event of a victory, the influx of female slaves was going to leave a surplus of mateless women cast out for younger trophy models, with nothing to do but salt down the heads and file the uncounted coups, and many would need find solace in the arms of any beta male smart enough to survive.

--|PW|--

There are certainly few men in the Democrat party. If I were single, I could never date one. Can you imagine a real man saying "Gee, those wussy soft on crime, terrorist sympathizers really speak to me. They soooo get me."

Ewwwwwwwwww. No thanks. Real men vote GOP.

Item: There are manly virtues, and a Y-chromosome bearer must have them to qualify as a man.

Item: There are also manly deficits, which come upon us all with the passing of the years, and American men, though among the best of the Western world, should learn to cope with them somewhat better than they have to date.

I blame gender-war feminism and political correctness for our problems of the first sort, and our media-powered "youth culture" for our problems of the second sort.

Jo,

So do real women.

"Hit a sensitive nerve there did I pus...err John Irving?"

Says the man who gargles Vagisil each night before going to bed ...

Well, I was starting to think I was a dinosaur outdated and looked upon negatively.

Now, as an NRA, NON-PC, leader type kind of guy, I guess there is hope huh!? lmao

Liberal clowns like the Breck girl-John Edwards with their pretty hair, really ARE wusses...

sarah

Correction: Ultimately, he's the one who should think he's in charge.

No sara, he should believe he's in charge.

Thinking about it when it counts doesn't...count. A man has to believe it.

A man thinks about it before he believes it.

BTW, Great post Cassy.

Liberal clowns like the Breck girl-John Edwards with their pretty hair, really ARE wusses...

Hey, then what do you think of Maybelline Man Romney?

Mitt styles his hair in the exhaust stream of an F-18.

Edwards is still a pu**y.

Hey, then what do you think of Maybelline Man Romney?

Brian, are you looking for a date? Is that the teenage indication of interest approach or do you just think he is cute?

Hey, then what do you think of Maybelline Man Romney?

Ding dong. There's a difference between someone who makes sure he looks good and one who let's his vanity define him - as Edwards does.

John Kerry and John Edwards at their announcement press conference: "And we have better hair!"

Thought I was going to puke.

Dang Cassy where were you 52 years ago? Oh well like they say ,52 years late and $52 short.

OMG, Real men should be the one running things.

You mean like George Bush? Dick?

Running it into the ground?

Oh yes, more real men like that please.

Tough enough and with so much backbone they avoided serving teir country when they could have. Yep, some real men in those two idols.

George W Bush, pussy extraordinaire: "Daddy, get me out a that there Vetnam will ya"? "Sure son, here's a fun jet to ride around in in the US, that is whenever you feel like showing up."

JFO
Could you fly that jet? Can you fly that jet?

Notice how excited the moonbat morons are about this.

Methinks they doth protest too much.

I must admit that this is truly a great post.
If I were 40 or 50 years younger now, I would most likely have a grand time (a little less competition now, then back then) :)
As luck would have it, I was born at the right time, for me, and have had a great time getting here none the less.
A suggestion to the young ladies, there really are men out there, don't just settle for second best.

Just stay away from the donky party, you will have a hard time finding a man there

I hunt, fish, spit, scratch the twins,lift heavy things, chase down scary noises, when necessary, smoke, drink, open doors for women, leave the elevator last, take out the garbage, unclog the tolets, clean the puke, fix the cars, eat a sandwich with dirty hands, watch sports, swear like a sailor once in a while, pray to the Lord, protect my family at all cost, and will never change. Men in their twenties can't even talk like men anymore. They are too busy highlighting their hair and hanging out with chicks they are not trying to sleep with. We can not let this trend continue if we are going to survive in this crazy world.

Why would I disagree with this woman. Her experience clearly is dating like minded wingnuts as no other self-respecting male would go near her. How does it feel to be called a pussy by one of your own boys?

jfo, was there a point somewhere in that comment? Or was it all just in an effort for you to take a cheap shot at Cassy?

Brian, are you looking for a date? Is that the teenage indication of interest approach or do you just think he is cute?

Neither. I was responding to the previous poster, who was fawning over "Breck girl-John Edwards with their pretty hair". Try to keep up.

Cassy, you've broken every guy's heart here by acknowledging you have a boyfriend.

That comment made me throw up a little in my mouth.

There's a difference between someone who makes sure he looks good and one who let's his vanity define him - as Edwards does.

And you base that on what? His $400 haircut, vs. Romney's $300 makeover? A flip comment at a press conference? Is that all you got?

To me, the bigger mystery is why jhow even posts here anymore, considering that now even his own side thinks he's a "disingenuous buffoon".

Thankfully, there still exist males with spines, the mindset to use them, and a concept of "gentlemanly behavior".

Unfortunately, I am married, so the lack of competition these days does not help me a great deal. Best of luck to the guys out there who still stand up for what it means to be a male, and are willing to do so even in light of all of the eunuchs out there professing that theirs is the best way.

And damn, Brian. Do not raise my hopes like that... You could have chocked on that vomit.

Not as much as you would if your wife saw you post "Unfortunately, I am married".

Thankfully, my wife is intelligent enough to have an understanding of contextual placement.

Unlike, say, you.

John

There were actually two points. One was to take a cheap shot at male wingnuts and the other needed a response like yours. It was that folks like you ought to loosen up your sphincters - get a colonoscopy or something.

It was that folks like you ought to loosen up your sphincters - get a colonoscopy or something.

Ah yes, the liberal lifestyle that's supposed to be so hip and cool. Are your sphincters wide open or something? And why do you libtards ALWAYS assume that people on the right are these straight-laced puritans who are aghast at things like sex? A lot of us aren't against it, we just don't look at it as quantity, but more quality.

Why are the lefties attempting a discussion on what a real man is? That is an unachievable task. The lefty men have a stronger surge of estrogen then testosterone if you know what I mean. Real men do not care what other people think they should be. They are who they are. Now, if the democrats only go by polls, well then, you have your answer. ww

Readers who enjoyed this subject may want to take a look at an essay on my blog from last year. It's worth a minute of your time.

http://heartlandpatriot.townhall.com/g/3280cf9c-c056-4afe-90ea-903b09bf9d55

Well heck, I had just packed my flute so I could go to Borders for this week's guitar-flute anti-war sing along, when I thought: "Oh my God, I don't have anything to wear!"

The only car left was the Suburban and that one scares me 'cause you have to use the side mirrors and everthing, so I rode my bicycle over to mom's where I keep my Hugh Grant movies.

Hugh always knows what to wear. So it took a little time because she was making spinach dip and well, I just had to know.

Well, the truth is Steve the liberal lifestyle is hip and cool.

"Best of luck to the guys out there who still stand up for what it means to be a male, and are willing to do so even in light of all of the eunuchs out there professing that theirs is the best way."

Real men don't have the need to flaunt their masculinity. It's so simple. Real men prefer real women.

And if Cassie is one of those women who buy into the whole male "I'm a woman, and I need someone to take care of me" syndrome just dye your hair blonde and go goldigging. Surely their is some bombastic man out there who prefers such playthings.

Otherwise real women and real men stand on their own two feet but work as a team. The whole flirty, submissive role is a venus fly trap. Real men prefer a woman who can stand on her own. Real women prefer men who have a brain that works on a level beyond Neandrethal.

I know it's difficult for righties to absorb this but it IS the 21st century.

Now watch this one - those of you who are "real" men would be at the recruiting center right now wouldn't ya?

Find all little boys who play with toy solders and retrain them to play dumb games like GIVE PEACE A CHANCE get them to sing stupid songs like DOG AND BUTTERFLY,GIVE PEACE CHANCE,MUSKRAT LOVE,AGE OF AQUARIUS, and wear pink then the liberal idiots are happy

spurwing plover

Can I help pay your fare to get you to the recruiting station? Show us what a big bad "man" you are.

JFO proves yet AGAIN that he cannot get the meaning of the post so proves he is part of the problem. Simply going to war and killing people makes you a man. How wonderfully naive. His estrogen is over the top. ww

And JFO once again demonstrates the frail, faulty nature of his argument by bringing up the chickenhawk stupidity.

Again.

Bravo! Bravo! But, please, no encores.

DAMN YOU WILDWILLIE! DAMN YOU TO HELL!

;)

Cassy,

Great Post. Good luck with the Real Man. If it doesn't work out between you and your BF, come on our to AZ, the state is still chock full of real men. My Daughter found one, I'm sure there'd be one for you.

Real men aren't neccesarily in short supply, they're just keeping a low profile, working, taking care of families and friends etc. They exist in the big cities, but get lost in the noise and clutter. It's better off to find them in the country, fly-over country and red states.

Not jumping up to get involved in a war the Dims mishandled from the start (Vietnam) doesn't make you a pussy. George W. Bush did infinitely more than 90% of Dims today have done militarily. So if hes a pussy, they are mega-pussys.

JFO the adolescent gives us: "Sure son, here's a fun jet to ride around in in the US, that is whenever you feel like showing up."

Thereby showing us that he has no clue what a dangerous airplane the F102 was to actually fly.

The chickenhawk stuff is par for the course for such adolescents.

Dirk, don't believe JFO. One of the things we learned in the CBS forged memo fiasco was that George Bush did volunteer to go to Vietnam with a unit of F102's that were deployed there. But he was told he didn't qualify at the time as they were taking more experienced pilots. Dan Rather's crooked producer Mary Mapes learned this from another National Guard pilot she interviewed, but of course did not report it.

The fact that GW BUSH the idol of "real men" everywhere failed to take an Air Force physical as a young man, was stripped of his flying status, and that there is little or no evidence to suggest he fulfilled his military obligation, which was then deemed "irrelevant" by the right wing press corps, just goes to show what "real men" everywhere emulate as their knight in shining armor.

Oy! More real men.....more real men.......

Wow. Another dose of projection, huh CB? Tossed in with some unproven accusations to boot.

How're the tips today, BTW?

You folks are a hoot and a half. From the mouths of folks who piously proclaim libs are "traitors" "terrorist supporters" "america haters" comes a big giant whine about "chickenhawk." By the way I didn't use that term SPQR. Why do you hate so much SPQR?

Heh, the essay that spawned this post has obviously struck some nerves.
You should read the Bible more.
The guilty flee where no man pursues.

A quick, small defense of myself:

I buy my deodorant (i.e. "product") at Bath & Body Works or at my local perfume counter, despite my Y-Chromosome objection to such places. After trying a large number of grocery-store deodorants over the years, I found myself allergic to many, many of the manly things. (Speed Stick, Old Spice, etc.)

If I'm purchasing fru-fru products, I can't help it. It's my body.

And if I wore the Speed Stick, I'd be scraching under my arms all day ... and I'd rather not be THAT much of a male stereotype.

--|PW|--

The one time a drunk friend pawed my wife, he spent the next FIVE YEARS apologizing. I never even raised my voice to him over it, but I guess the look on my face told a story my words were not telling. Makes me feel better about myself in light of this post and Kim's article.

Now watch this one - those of you who are "real" men would be at the recruiting center right now wouldn't ya?

Ahhh, jfo with his chicken hawk intimations again. He's too chicken shit to come right out and say it.

Actually, jfo, some of us stayed behind to guard against internal insurgency from deranged liberals such as you.

Well, the truth is Steve the liberal lifestyle is hip and cool.

And therein is the problem. What is hip and cool? And who wants to strive for that classification?

Oy! More real men.....more real men.......

As to un-civil's screed against GWB's TANG service - Wingmen for Bush.

Apparently, JFO wants to be 'Frasier Crane'.

Or Niles.

And when that's as lofty as your ideals can fly well that's just sad.

Lay off the boy, men, he doesn't know what he's missing, more's the pity. Like trying to explain beer and football to a Euro, this is.

pennywit, it's not necessarily the products you use. It's the level of importance a man assigns to that function of grooming and appearance.

There's nothing wrong with a man being clean, well groomed and dressed nicely when the occassion calls for it. It's when it is taken to an absurd level. When it becomes the whole persona of the guy, when it becomes primping, then it becomes a point of ridicule.

That doesn't matter to trolls like jfo. If you support the war in Iraq, then you must rush right down and enlist.

If you served a tour in the military and separated at some time in the past, and you support the war in Iraq, you must go and reenlist.

If you've retired from the Armed Forces, and you are under 65 years old, no matter, you must go and enlist.

If you are medically disqualified from serving in the military, you must abandon whatever you are doing in life now and find a job that in some manner supports the military effort in Iraq.

Ultimately, for the left, if you support our mission in Iraq, you cannot do so unless you are actually in the fight. Otherwise, you must STFU and you are a chicken hawk.

Such is the level of derangement on the left.

Ok ok ok ok, I'll stop with the you should go sign up routine.

From now on I shall simply refer to you cowards, traitors, america haters and xenophobes. That seems fair now doesn't it?

Hey Cassy, your REAL MAN is in Idaho. Go get Larry!!!!

What exactly is so cool about a bunch of castrated beta males who cry more often than the average woman watching Hope Floats?

Ok ok ok ok, I'll stop with the you should go sign up routine.

jfo, just stop, period. Stop frequenting and commenting. Stop slinging ad-homs. STOP!

Get it?

From now on I shall simply refer to you cowards, traitors, america haters and xenophobes. That seems fair now doesn't it?

Guessing you meant to say, "...refer to you as...".

Sure jfo, go right ahead. That will at least give you some new material for your comedic commentary, and give us some new ad-homs from you to deconstruct and ridicule.

Nevertheless, you'd still just be yelling chicken hawk without actually coming out and saying it, because you're a chicken shit.

What I don't get jfo, is if that's what you mean, why don't you just say it? Oh, I know, 'cuz you're a chicken shit. Because you don't know who you're slinging a chicken hawk at on here. For all you know, it's an active duty guy in Iraq. So, you beat around it to give yourself maneuvering room - plausible deniability. Something to give you a fig leaf to be able to say you didn't actually call someone a chicken hawk. No, you only infer it.

Why do you do that jfo? Oh, I know why. Because you're a chicken shit. And that's what I really mean.

Yeah but you see am I famous now--I got banned by wee wee.
As far as marc's statement, I probably am a buffon. Unlike some people I don't pretend to be someone I ain't.
Sigh!! I guess I should have used "snort snicker" instead of "snicker snort" Didn't know that you could not laugh at the VAST number of posts that wee wee generates. Maybe I should have used the old standby-LMAO. Sorry marc,I will try to live up to your expections from now on.
Oh yeah in closing, up yours brian-less.

Sigh!! I guess I should have used "snort snicker" instead of "snicker snort" Didn't know that you could not laugh at the VAST number of posts that wee wee generates.

jhow, I'm with you. Back when I was trying to give wizblues a chance, the majority of the comments on their posts were the wizblues contributors commenting on each other's posts, responding to a wizblues contributors comments or complimenting each other on their wisdom and sagacity. It was like a mutual self-adoration society over there.

And that was worthy of a snicker, snort or even a snort, snicker.

JFO, you call people names, accuse them of not serving when in fact you are completely and utterly ignorant of their actual service, and you claim that I hate? Do you actually bother to read your ridiculous drivel before clicking on submit or are you just another chomskybot?

Most sixth graders can make more consistent sentences than you.
