51. My point, since you keep missing it
Edited on Sun Oct-19-03 02:51 PM by Nobody
The point is not what's right, the point I was making several replies ago was that a real man is a human male with XY chromosomes. That's all the definition I need.

Any man or woman can have numerous qualities, which can apply to both sexes. Courage. I know courageous men and courageous women. I'm sure you do, too. I also know cowards of both sexes. But ascribing courage as a manly or womanly quality is inaccurate as any human being has the capacity to be couragreous or cowardly.

The problem with semantics is that a person can misunderstand other people easily. Any subjective description means different things to different people.

If you think I know what maggrwaggrs (and your) definition of what constitutes a "real man", you're wrong. "real man" is a descriptor that is ambiguous at best. A little clarification would be helpful. My telepathic powers are not working today or any other day.

on edit: had to correct the $@^@(E%#@ typos.
