Yeah, KB0MAI, I saw your question up on Discord. I had to think about it for a while because it means so many different things depending on who you are, where you're at, how you're raised. I can give you a general definition of what I think a man is but it wouldn't necessarily mean what you think a man is or what Bill thinks a man is or Kevin. Everybody is going to have a various answer to that. So I'm looking forward to hearing everybody's definition of what a man is.

Some of these characteristics I see as a man is like owning your decisions instead of blaming others. You make a decision, you stick with it, you might be right, you might be wrong and when you're wrong you know that you can sit there and say, well I was the one that made that choice and I can't blame the others for it or maybe standing up for something. I think these are all traits that combine together too by the way. So if you're standing up for something it might cost you something to stand up for what you believe in and that's part of being a man. And then handling the consequences of whatever happens. I did this and this is what the consequences are and I got to live with it and it's my fault that kind of thing. I also think though it's to protect and provide and contribute to not only to your family but society in general. And also to control your impulses. When you're a kid you get angry at something and you act out or your ego or your greed or your lust. We have that problem with our president, right? I just had to put that little jab in there, I'm sorry. But that's to be able to control, being a man is to be able to control these urges, these feelings and put things into perspective and to be able to...
