Men. How do we begin describing them. Ok face it. We cant. A few days back. I was watching a movie. And it really made me ponder upon the difference between men back in the olden days and men now. Or rather just boys who refuse to grow up. Honestly, as the new era passes, the ‘modern generation’, so do good men. When people say “A fair gentleman is extinct”, no shyt, it was said for a reason.
One of the major changes in men, then and now, is that, men then, they used to have something called ‘pride’. Men NOW, well all they have is something they admit is bigger than their dicks, and we call that ‘ego’. The male pride and ego, depending on how you see it, its actually two words describing one common thing. But in actual fact if you think about it, the two’s common meaning is only to a certain extend cause halfway through, they go in opposite directions (wild guess which is the negative one).
Say 50 years back, men back then, even boys, worked hard throughout their lives, to accomplish whatever goals and reap the fruits of their labour in later years. They come out at young ages, do petty jobs, and with much perseverance and little help, find themselves opportunities and twist their own fates for the better. 50 years later… What do we get? Boys who live off daddy’s hard earned, getting everything planned out by their parents, complaining day in day out. Okay to be fair, ALL kids do that nowadays (yes, even the girls). But really, as guys, shouldn’t there be a little more OWN hard work involved? Everything’s the easy way for them now eh? Men those days worked their arses off. Enslaved themselves. Some our age even go to war. Bring that situation to a modern-day kid, he’d be crying for his mama within 5minutes. It don’t matter where you come from or how’s your family background. Asian or Western. The story’s still the same. Its fact.
Those old times, it was all about pride and glory and honour to those men. Everything they do, was to live up to their forefathers or to bring glory to their family name. They take PRIDE in whatever they do. Its an HONOUR to them and it brings them GLORY. And the things they do, are often noble in their own ways, something they’re proud of, something worth looking up to. What do men nowadays do that deserves someone else’s admiration? They smoke they drink they cheat they lie. You find male chauvinists at every corner. Thinking with their dicks instead of their heads. And belittling women and they go along. Honestly, not exactly respect worthy.
Fine. There WERE horrible men in the past and there ARE still (very few, very rare) decent men now. But everything I say, don’t get me wrong, its just based on a more… *writer’s block* I cant think if the exact word now… its just a comparison between how matured and ‘manly’ the males in the past were and how… asshole-ish guys now can be. Disagree if you will, correct me if im wrong and stop me if you must, but everything said is based from one mere angle and does NOT of course (thank GAWD) apply to all the males out there.
My apologies if anyone was offended while reading this. Not such intention. Just me and my sudden… outburst?!... towards men… No hard feelings. (:
