What Happened to being a Man

@SRS BZNS

I need to rant about something.

Idk if its because I’m 30 and it is true that you do become your parents but I look at all the kids these days and shake my head. I look at half the dudes in the car culture these days and really really shake my head. Wtf is up with wearing your girlfriends jeans, having legs smaller and skinnier then my for arm and having long hair.

The US is breeding sissies. If I was any foreign country I would wait 10 years and invade this place since its going to be full of fat invalids and men who look like Nicole Richie who can barely lift a lap top.

What happened to the days where playing sport was cool, where jeans didn’t look like they were spray painted on, where if you had long hair someone told you mother to get that cut before you wound up with a cock in your mouth.

Do dude not go out with their dad’s and chop wood anymore? When I was 16 I had a carpentry job and before that my parents put my ass to work in the fields and the barn stacking hay bails that were bigger than I was and close to 100lbs each. Then after that there was wood to chop stack and move. When winter was here you got a shovel stuck in your hand. On top of that if you didn’t play a sport you didn’t leave the house.

I look at all these hipsters and skater kids and i don’t even know what to say. I don’t even know what to say about their girlfriends. The girls these days are all wearing my grandfathers clothing with Peg Bundy’s pants.

Where is this country going, seems kids are either to fat to do anything or to skinny, lazy and Frail to do anything. I by no means am a juice head or even muscle bound but I can turn a wrench and put up 300 100lbs bails of hay in a bar by myself in 2 hours without dropping dead.

Has manliness been bred out of the US. Is the next underground band, the next cell phone and tucking your dick between your legs to fit your jeans on now more important than a good sweat on a hot day accomplishing something?

Am I a dying or dead breed?

Couldnt’ agree more man. I’m about to turn 25 in 2 weeks and I look at these shmucks born in the 90’s and it’s just sad. And like others here, I have had a tax paying job since I was 16. Every day since. And I did basically me entire college degree at night while working full time. Kids truly do want everything handed to them these days…jobs (they won’t really search for them), toys/items, etc.

And don’t get me started on the ‘discipline’. If the government knew how my parents raised me when I was a pre-teen, they’d be in jail. But you know what? Being older now, I absolutely appreciate that they didn’t let up and let me do whatever the hell I wanted, when I wanted.

@McBitchin

this, all I do is work and go to school. and every person posting bitching about the clothes other people wear as if it actually affects you, you are fags. congratulations fags for opening up to a car forum full of dudes.

It affects SOCIETY, not ME. When society goes down the drain, so does my life (eventually).

Men de-masculine’ing (new word?) themselves is nothing to be proud of or be in support of. Those ‘skinny jeans’ are not manly in any way, shape, or form. It’s for homosexual men. Yet hipsters rock em like it ain’t nobodies bidness. Same with the long hair. WTF would you even want long hair? As far as I know/can tell, it’s a f’in PITA. Leave it to the women.
