View Profile History	What does masculinity mean to you? Femininity? Posted : 30 Oct, 2017 01:24 AM God's judgements on Adam and Eve after the fall is pretty much a condensed version of it. What must be remembered is that these are more revelations of the consequences of adulthood than punishments for growing up. Post Reply

I think the question might be does being a man mean you are in touch with your feminine side....before you say.... yes I know-words- but I don't have an hour to be that precise... less Fall more how do men work in this society..with regards to that, I am sometimes alpha sometimes beta, dependent on what I need to do, otherwise I may hinder the work, being able to love nurture and consider are usually considered feminine traits and whilst we men may not display them as much as women do they are still part of us, when society labels that as men getting in touch with our feminine side the reality is that they are already .... some more than others, this of course can be said in that our genetics have a role to play in the way we are as traits are inherited, which in deference to rambo is quite correct, the genome stores a huge amoubt of information and what we do in our daily lives is encoded onto that, we can now trace information going back generations, so why does this matter ? well consider this if what you do will affect what your offspring do for generations how will you respond in your walk ? a fathers sins, for me the question is one of authenticity and truth in ones walk... ie is that just my attitude or is it something else, a man is a man regardless of whether he knows himself, it's when we attribute the wrong motivation is when we get it wrong, whether we be man or woman we just are ! on the road to salvation learning not to get it wrong Post Reply
View Profile History	What does masculinity mean to you? Femininity? Posted : 1 Nov, 2017 01:06 AM Putting it differently men and woman both have feminine and masculine tendancies. One male just is generally more masculine than feminine, and the other way around for the female. All sorts of small exceptions exist in each individual, sometimes large exceptions, sometimes very large to the point of being a defect. Genetics have no morals, sometimes something goes wrongband the resulting individual suffers from it, this is a practical problem not a moral one.... the moral problem is what causes the genetic corruption before or during pregnancy in the first place. It is immoral to blame the child for what he/she was forced to inherit, but equally so it is immoral to condone the corruption itself.... always attack the cause not the symptom. I myself am a personally infuriating chrimera of everything except race (although who knows what family scandals there were), can't understand either the male obsession with flying balls or a woman when she is emotionally upset... completely closed books. Too moral for the immoral and too open and vulgar for the "moral".... just intellegent enough to know I'm not all that intellegent and what that means.... other things too that I won't share publically. I AM defective and stuck halfway in between everything you can think of... still I'm stuck with myself and so for now is the world. My mother says there were a few complications with my birth and after that so that's probably most of the cause, the other part being my family on my fathers side is kinds slightly nuts and prone to hot tempers in general.

View Profile History	What does masculinity mean to you? Femininity? Posted : 2 Nov, 2017 11:59 PM I did not mean it in a moralistic or emotional way, I meant it technically and compared to the more stable "norm". Also I know where my imballances lie. I am simply being honest and realistic. Regarding what you said, yes it is true. At some point I realised that perhaps God formed me as He did BECAUSE He needed someone "defective". I have always been outside of society, unable to ever fit in anywhere, because of this I have been able to observe it as a perpetual outsider giving me a comparitively high level of objectivity. I am just enough of everything to be nothing in particular, and that is a valueble if lonely position to fill. I am part of the peripheral restorative chaos that society needs to reinvigorate itself kicking and screaming all the way... it was difficult to accept I admit but meh, life happens. There is no point in falling over yourself and trying to be something you were never meant to be anyway. Remember that God does not judge people the way people do, a technically imperfect or defective tool from one perspective can be a specialization device from another. Post Reply
Ocean17 View Profile History	What does masculinity mean to you? Femininity? Posted : 4 Nov, 2017 12:24 PM Rambo thank you for sharing. I too have always felt like an outsider. So much that if I didn't look like my parents, I am sure I was adopted. Today, I know exactly why I'm different. My difference is that I am chosen by God. Out of all of the billions of people, He chose me long before I was born, in a way unique to me. I joined this site to get to meet God's men. What I am getting is so much more. The Holy Spirit is filling me with insights, confirmations of what I thought I believed and answers. We can all learn so much from each other. We just need to join in. As a man, why is God your hero?

Posted : 4 Nov, 2017 02:08 PM God initially seems disqualified because to be a hero you must be a weak and/or fearful but do what is right regardless of it. Jesus in that respect CAN be called a hero because his flesh was terrified of calvary so Him I'll call a Hero, notice the capital difference. Most human hero's for me are individuals that rebel against the macro-boxes society pushes them into but manage to do it with dignity and grace. Like Thomas Sowell for example that quite effectively dismantles the "black marxist victim" nonsense economically even though he started out as one, it takes more courage than most people have to throw off years of indoctrination without falling into the trap of another pool of lies.... also it's incredible fun watching self-righteous leftists cringe and fluster when this "obviously previously disadvantaged black man" looks them right in the eye and tells them exactly how wrong they are about exactly what when it comes to black people.
