What I Mean By "Being The Man"

Today, it's almost as if a lot of men
and women are afraid to even STAND UP
for integrity, honor and loyalty.

It's almost not "cool" to be this way.

They mistake these immortal attributes
for stupidity.

They don't understand at all.

The truth, though, is that a wise woman
will appreciate the strength of a MAN'S
loyalty. And of course, a wise man will
do the same for a woman.

This same focus on INTEGRITY rather than
on trivialities, helps you detect whether
a woman is quality or not, on the inside.

In the movie "Unforgiven", Eastwood's
character is an example of a guy who
is THE MAN. He understand there
are things more important than
getting "free ones" with women.

His love for his wife, even though
she has passed away, is something
that sustains him, long after she
has passed away.

It's as if he knows the real deal, and
no one could fool him on anything.

Somehow, you just know that his character
wouldn't be the type learning pick up
lines and trying to get women to like
him by being someone other than himself.

Our society today can learn a lot
from this, and no, I don't mean
to go around with guns a blazing,
I mean to have this level of
TOTAL INTEGRITY WITHOUT APOLOGY
FOR BEING A GREAT MAN.

Notice in the clip below, how
his character actually VALIDATES
this woman and how powerful an
effect it has on her, because
his words are not coming from
a place of weakness or neediness
but from inner strength.

This is what I mean by how you
CAN be good to a woman, when
it comes from a place of internal
strength.
