Girl on girl action.
Nothing gets the voyeuristic man’s motor racing like the idea of two (or more) girls going at it in a sloppy display of physical affection.
I know this is old news, but a recent article in “The Washington Post” caught my attention and perked my interest in this controversial topic.
The article said that many teenage girls are toying with the idea of bisexuality.
While the obvious man may think of this as an outstanding idea, I want to rise above the shallowness of lust and dwell on the reason why this is happening.
Why are many teenage girls choosing to experiment with women over men?
There are many potential answers, but I believe the main reason is the overall lack of masculinity in today’s culture.
What do I mean?
It’s simple: there aren’t enough real men to sweep these girls off their feet, so these girls are turning their attention to their only option–other girls.
Most boys of today are not taught the necessary skills to grow into men.
Again, there are too many reasons to analyze, so I’ll stick to the major ones.
The first reason is a lack of a dominant male role model in the lives of young American boys.
The staggering number of single-mother “families” makes me almost embarrassed to be a member of the male gender.
Children, especially young boys, need fathers to help them grow into well-rounded adults.
As a 25-year-old man, I know the importance of having a father around to teach me how to be responsible, how to be caring and how to treat women.
There are many things that I learned from my mother, but some life lessons were better explained to me by my father.
Part of the blame for our culture’s lack of masculinity falls on the delicate shoulders of women.
How many women have wished their man was more in touch with his feminine side, or complained that men never listen?
Well, complain no more, ladies.
All that whining about “feminine sides” and all that nagging about not listening has led to the feminization of the American male.
Sorry, girls. It’s true. It turns out that all this time men were listening, and the idea of getting in touch with their feminine side sounded like a good idea.
As a result, the metrosexual man was born.
For those of you who may not know, a “metrosexual” is defined as a straight, urban male with a strong aesthetic sense who spends a great deal of time and money on his appearance and lifestyle (think of “Queer Eye’s” Fab Five minus the fab).
At first, this notion of feminine men sounded like a great idea to women all over the place: “Let’s give our men facials, shave them hairless, and take them shopping!”
Not so fast.
An recent article written by Terrence O. Moore said that many young women are dissatisfied with the apparent lack of “manly” men.
In the article, titled “The Sons of Murphy Brown,” women claim they are forced to choose between men who “treat women roughly and are unreliable, unmannerly, and usually stupid,” and those men who are whiny, indecisive and utterly incapable of “acting like men.”
My physical idea of manliness is a mixture of many elements, ranging from suave coolness to rugged toughness.
Manliness is many things to many people, but it is not manicures, facials, shopping, sipping cocktails and lounging around a spa all day.
Listen up, all of you hairless, manicured girly men out there: Ditch the face cream and be a man!
It’s OK to have some body hair! It’s OK to not cry when you watch “Titanic!” Just go out and do the guy thing.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying every guy has to be a burly, macho man. I’m just saying masculinity is important because it balances the male/female dynamic of our culture.
And a final word for the women out there: just let guys be guys.
Get in touch with your masculine side
