Real men....

Real men wear pants....or shorts. Maybe sweats. Sometimes kilts, depending on where they live.

Real men hold the door open for the person behind them. When they are behind someone holding a door for them, they say "Thank you."

Real men watch sports like football and baseball and hockey on TV...if they like those sports. They might also watch sitcoms, softball, cheerleading, movies or musicals. Sometimes they just watch what the rest of the household wants to see. Or they can read a book or do the crossword. Whatever.

Real men wear pink. Sometimes a real man doesn't like pink, so he wears something else, depending on his current needs and wants. These include but are not limited to the man's comfort level with the color in question, its level of attractiveness on him, its current state of cleanliness and its ability to hide stains. It could also be at the top of the pile. For some guys, dressing is not rocket surgery.

Real men eat quiche. Unless they are on a diet, or don't like quiche, or are lactose intolerant, or are allergic to eggs, or have no quiche available. Then they eat something else.



Real men cry. Especially when someone they love dies or when they're really worried or frightened or when they have something stuck under their contact or when they have a broken limb.



Real men fight for what they believe in. A real man can do this without ever throwing a punch.



Real men vacuum. They do dishes. Sometimes while their spouse is mowing the lawn.



Real men raise kids who grow up to be real men and women.
