"Sorry, I giving lots of responses here. I agree with most of your post except the point about the difference between being a man and being a good man. The difference should be said as being male and being a man."

I am struggling at this point in my life to see what it is to be a man in the modern world.I was raised by my grandfather who was an  old school man, and I have picked up his way of looking at the world and put my own twist on it.
