Hello everyone,
My name is John Williams and I am new to the AOM community. I have been a frequenter of the site for a few months now and I really enjoy everything going on here. I think this is a great resource for men and a good community, and I quite enjoy reading the articles.
A bit about myself; I am 27 and happily married for a little over a year now. I am a paramedic and in addition to that my wife and I are both still students. We are from and live in California, however we are in the process of moving to Nevada. I love the outdoors and almost any activity relating to them or taking place in them. I also enjoy learning about/practicing medicine, music (listening, writing, playing guitar), reading, writing, cooking and eating, woodworking, soccer, traveling, trap and skeet shooting, spending time with family and a host of other things. I love learning about new things.
It's good to be here, greetings.
John W

I think you’re wrong. The concept of male as universal has been around much longer.A: If by “male as universal,” you mean using male pronouns (“he,” “him,” and “his”) for women as well as men, the idea did indeed begin in the 18th century.Before then – for two centuries, in fact – it was considered…See More
Andrew Bennett posted a discussionThe death of neck ties?
I heard that according to researches that the neck tie is expected to become obsolete in the next few decades. Because more and more men are dressing more casually these days thanks to Facebook and google where the CEO shows up in jeans and a hoodie. So is the neck tie really becoming obsolete or are men just not caring about his personal appearance?Please feel free to give your taken on this.See More
