You've revealed your true identity and iv taken note. Your a misandrist and a feminazi

She is not and your insults are uncalled for. And against the TOS.

There are men, and then there are men in Christ. We who are in the Lord, are the latter. 

The Lord has His way with us, conforming us to His image by the Spirit of God from glory to glory. He convicts us of this fallen flesh... disciplining us as He sees fit... encouraging us to press on if we stumble... and commanding us to stand if we fall. I write with confidence that who we are is expressed by, and given to us, by the Lord God Himself. 

Our brother @Saved.One.by.Grace shares what I believe to be the Lord's will for men. If you are the husband of a wife, you are to love her like Christ loves us all, His Body and Church. You are to give yourself to her as Christ has given Himself to us. 

I take this further, for the royal law does not encourage complacency. Regardless of whether we are the husband of a wife (or not) we are to love our neighbor as ourselves, giving ourselves to them as our Father in heaven gave His only begotten Son to the world. 

We know that our God and Savior has no need of our hands, so He commissions us to serve others in His name with these hands. There is no greater honor a man may aspire to in this world than to serve the Son of the living God. Jesus Christ is our example in all things, so we follow Him. 

I'm not married, so I give myself to others as it pleases God.

This is an excellent opportunity to extol the virtues of a man's best friend. @Alivewill surely agree that duct tape is a man's best friend. Verily!

Machismo is not required to avail oneself of the solution to all problems temporal. If it's broken, duct tape can fix it.

Every man ought to have at least three rolls of duct tape on hand. At least!

I suppose that makes Red Green the ultimate man.

Here is a great gift you ladies can get for your special man!

Here we have the "New Century Version" Duct Tape Bible.
     Notice the durable pre taped cover.
      One of a kind 'manly' gift!

Duct tape (pronounced "duck tape") is an emanation of The Force.

It has a light side, and a dark side.

And it holds all things together.

Have you ever heard of the macho man complex? They can be domineering, have a lot of pride in their manliness, and male virility. They can also be controlling. Know any males like that?

 

Yes they're everywhere, here's a web piece along those lines-

RIGHT MAN (AND WOMAN) SYNDROME
"Right Men" like to think they're right all the time and are domestic household tyrants who terrorise their families but they can be found in all fields of life: in business, politics, art, culture. 
They are poor communicators, appalling listeners, tend to see everything in "black and white" and demonstrate a profound inflexibility. 
As a result, they tend to be hopelessly out of date with the current times in terms of fashion, relationships, social and cultural trends. 
They also often carry an erroneously fixed and out-of-date view about whom a person is and there is nothing that person (whether it be their son/daughter, neighbour, colleague) can do to convince them otherwise. 
The "Right Man" thinks he's right because he carries "secret knowledge".
The "Right Man" tends to believe that he knows people better than they know themselves.
Their catch-phrase is: "There is nothing wrong with me; it is everyone else that is at fault." 
The "Right Man" must always have his way and is afraid of losing face above all ("How dare you talk to me this way?"), anything that might be an indication of his/her infallibility or erroneous ways is something that he can never admit. 
And if things don't exactly go his way, he may try to scare people into submission by breaking into outbursts of rage.
