then no brit is a man xD... j/k
Anyway... I am not an uber cook but I like to cook sometimes and I would like to have some courses if I find the time
If cooking is an indicator of manlyness I can't judge but I think just everybody should be able to cook, it's more a matter humanity.

E.V.E. you know if somebody agrees on this everybody else will say he is gay xD... just because no man would stand to showing feelings and crying...
I think the only really time a man shows feelings is when something is related to you ( girls, especially loved girls ). But otherthan that is really rare...

But in all seriousness, I think cooking does not make a man, it makes an adult. Everyone, men and women alike, should be familiar with the basics of self-preservation. With that being said, I honestly can't tell what makes a 'real man'. To me, things like self-respect, intelligence and common sense are important but these also apply to both genders...

As several people have stated, this is just a question of maturity. I know only one guy who can't cook, though you wouldn't even think of not calling him a man.

There is truth to this, but as an old adage states: "everything in moderation." Meaning you don't openly cry in front of ANYONE and EVERYONE. To a good friend is fine, but not at every chance given. Being able to hide your feelings can be advantageous, especially when around mixed company or those that are strange(rs) to one's self. However, if you're like me an wear your heart on your sleeve, masking your feelings is a complete other task.
There are many phrases that state "real men wear pink" or "real men cry". The fact is, it's not the literal meaning to the statement that makes a man a "man". It's what the phrase suggests, and that's being comfortable with your sexuality. The other fact is, being a "man" is relative. For instance, I tend to think things through, whereas a more typical man may think very little or not at all about the same matter. Does that make me any less of a man? I'd vote no, but then by the same token, I'm biased towards myself (aren't we all though?)

That kind of chat was common here back when I was a teenager. Now that I'm an adult, not anymore.

Being a man isnt about balls or cooking. being a man is taking responsibility for your actions and being able to burden yourself without breaking. Thats just my opinion. Im not saying that girls wind up to being a man as well. They could.

I couldn't agree more with the above statement.

That's based on a few seconds of judgment though. I'll think more on it later.
