Ultimately a population will then start to die out and disappear. What usually happens is that governments will try to solve the problem through a policy of mass immigration - but this can create a whole new raft of problems along cultural/religious lines. (A decent example of all this is what has been going on in Germany during the last several decades - and more recently.) It almost seems tragicomic to me. Young people want to have a ton of sex, but without 'following through' in natural terms - thus without commitment, responsibility, family, etc. The consequences are slowly screwing us all, IMO. There is no doubt the socioeconomic problems that result. Can't say I disagree with your thoughts or concerns. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand what you are saying. I don't disagree with you as that is what defines manliness to you. The problem for someone like me, who let's his insecurities drive the ship far too often, is that manliness is never attainable. I will always be the same height and will always have a smaller member, two things that affect my perception of if I am manly or not. I use to think being tough was a sign of manliness. So I became a fighter and pretty damn tough. But that didn't make me feel manlier. I still focus on on the other things I fall short in. Another example is leadership/power/financial success. I use to think success would make me manlier, but the higher I climb, the more people I get to know who are more successful. So the end result is I don't feel any manlier now than when I started my career. I'm still the young man who is short and small. The only difference is I am a little better at dealing with my shortcomings without taking it out on those close to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 To me it's simple. To not want to dominate anyone else nor be dominated by anyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugly, malformed, unemployed and worthless in every practical aspect of manhood...so status quo. Nothing wrong, just slowly rotting away and raving about it. Thank you Irmajean, hope you’re well and they are giving you some much earned time off at your job. geronimo and IrmaJean 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayless Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 Adequate testosterone level and its physical/psychological consequence define masculinity objectively. Stating what we'd "like" masculinity to mean is nonsense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
