What is Manliness?

I'm not really seeing any direct connection between the two, but I am sure that they can go together.

I read the article to basically say that the over suppression of male agression caused societal problems. I would imagine that it means a focused and tuned argression as opposed to wanton raping and pillaging. :teeth:

Could decisiveness and confidence be seen as the "good side" of agression?

Well, I won't parse words with an attorney. Perhaps the word "assertiveness" would have been more apropos.

I cold be wrong, but I think the author was emphasizing decisiveness and confidence more than aggression as manly characteristics. I think you pass. :cof:

I'd much rather make a wrong decision than NO decision - that's for sure.

Amen---passivity (the opposite of agression) and apathy are killers.

I think she's in retirement.
But maybe she can tell us if this saying is true: "You can take an attorney out of the courtroom, but you can't take the courtroom out of an attorney."
