In short,

manhood is in peril.

WHY???


13/27

1. Fashion2. Technology

3. Food

Modern culture is killing the

modern man!


14/27

Fashion

Embroidered jeans and new, made-

to-look-old clothes mock our work

ethic.


15/27

Fashion

Man-purses, man-bras and

Mantyhose? No, no, no!(good rule of thumb: if you have to specify its for a man, then it

probably isnt.)


16/27

Technology

Convenience is conspiring to strip

masculinity from our once-calloused

hands.


17/27

Food

99 cent burgers, microwavable

dinners, and easy light charcoal

insult a mans innate desire toprovide.


18/27

Is it too late to reclaim our

manhood?

NO!*

*maybe


19/27

Its time for men to act like men again.


20/27

Lets change our own oil and grill our

own burgers (even if its a veggie

burger)


21/27

Lets open doors and offer subway seats

and re-learn big words like chivalry

recapture the power of a clean shave

and a firm handshake.


22/27

Lets not forget that manhood starts

with man!


23/27

Will it be hard work?


24/27

Of course it will, but hard work is what

being a man is all about.


25/27

Men, its time to roll

up our sleeves and

wear the pants

again.PANTS
