One of the most prevalent themes of questions I receive has to do with how exactly to «be masculine».
Inherently, most of us — men and women alike — suspect that the diametric opposite personas of «Mr. Nice Guy» and the «Bad Boy» can’t be the only possible choices when it comes to slotting guys according to their general demeanor. But based on what you tend to read nowadays, you’d think that was the case. Well, by now you know that I spend a lot of time talking about the concept of being a great man.
He is not a neuter, wussified «Mr. Nice Guy» who believes he can get somewhere by «kissing up» to pretty women. He is also not an abusive, cold-hearted slacker who slaps women around. What he is about is being a high-quality human being, who happens to exude sheer masculine presence all the while.
And it’s that «masculine presence» factor that tends to confound guys everywhere. Surely this isn’t about being «macho». It isn’t about «slaying dragons» and «conquering enemies». Of course not. At least not these days, for most of us.
So how about some straight-talk about what it IS about? Right on.

There once was a man named Adam. He was a nice enough fellow — he didn’t really know any better — and he had a woman, food, plenty of sex and nudity, more pets than a zoo, and lived an idyllic life. Only one thing — he couldn’t eat one particular fruit. Other than that, he could do whatever he wanted. So what’d he do? Obviously, he ate the fruit. Thus begat a looooooong tradition in all humanity; we want what we can’t have.
