A real man to me is someone who knows his responsibility. Someone who knows how to respect elders and ladies. Someone who is not afraid to show his emotions. What makes you ask this question?

I agree with you en, because if man is real man he can stand on his feet and responsibility. Not just doing things after left it alone. Just like being father. It not that making babies make them man but by facing the fact that they are already fathers that is willing to be one.

For me personally, speaking in how I see my hubby, he needs to be tuff, but at the same time have a good heart, be sweet, and a family man and be a hard worker to provide for his family. Don't take me wrong, we both work in our household, but he tries he's hardest to try and provide the most he can. He is always going out of his way for us. Another plus for me is someone who is compromising. I am feel myself lucky having found someone like him.

A "real man" is a human which has the appropriate chromosomes to give it the male gender. Anything else is dependent on opinion, tradition and social values. Those change all the time and depending on where you live.

Real Man is the one who values dignity and respect especially to woman. If he is already committed in relationship with woman then he must be matured enough to love and for being loyal that he will never cheat by being a two timer. He is not suppose to hurt woman physically and emotionally because that is what you call insecurity and lacking of manliness. A real man must be responsible enough to his actions and if he had done intimate moments with his girlfriend then he must be man enough to protect his love. If in case that there will result then he must be also man enough to take the responsibility of what he did by not leaving his girlfriend on air with her baby.

i think all man are real man, i never found a fake man in my life. Many responders describe a family man is a real man but i think if a man don't want to have a family, it doesn't make him a fake man. In a modern life people have the right to choose what he/she want in his/her life and people shouldn't judge the decision that he/she make regarding the future of his/her own life.

hi graceekwenx,
In my opinion, I think that a man is a real man if he has not only the physical attributes a man must have but also the mind and heart of a man. If he knows how to use his power properly towards women. They are the one who does not hurt a woman physically instead love them and take on their responsibilities. They know how to respect women and always think proper behaviors when they are with them.
The fathers and husbands who are responsible, caring and loving towards their kids and wives are real men. Those who are involve in a relationship and keeps being loyal to their partners are real men. Those who think of the sake of other people first before his own sake of self interest is a real man for me.

I think physical attributes is not only the basis of being a real man. In my opinion, a "Real Man" has a good attitude, sense of responsibility, sense of discipline, integrity, independence and guts .. Because in this generation, only few man possess these kind of attributes . He maybe not as buff as any man would describe, ain't having a good body or whatsoever. As long as he has that kind of attributes and personalities, He's the REAL MAN . ;)

What makes a real man is simple:
He is not afraid to communicate
A real man loves, he is not afraid to commit, and treat his woman like a queen
A real man puts his family FIRST,
A real man accepts you for who you are..flaws and all.
A real works hard everyday and provides for his FAMILY
As far as attitude goes; In my opinion a real man should be patient and willing to compromise if he disagrees. A real man just sits back and listen to his woman even if she is fussing and he doesn't really want to hear it lol! If your relationship is on edge or possible on the verge of ending, a real man will keep it real and tell you how they really feel, no need to be secretive or tell lies.
I hope this helps!
