Real Men

[dmdoss]

Where have all the real men gone? Today we don't have the larger than life men/actors in our society. When you think of Audie Murphy, John Wayne, James Stewart and so on. Sure they were actors, so well use them. Can you compare any of today's celebrities to them? We don't have an Audie for sure, instead we have Brad Pitt. The icon's that I grew up with sure don't seem anything like the one's today. Can you think of a man who is as "manly" as John Wayne? If so who is it? I don't think any of today's actors have the "value's" of old.

real men actors, my guys were Bronson and McQueen.

Maybe, just maybe Matt Damon as Bourne. But he still has a baby face.

GERARD BUTLER
(King Leonidas in 300)

He's a very manly man.

They're not allowed to be that way anymore...It's just not PC anymore. I've heard it called the "wussification" of America...Sad really. The way actors are these days who would want to look up to them anyway?

[Centerius]

Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson.

No, there really aren't manly men any more in Hollywood. Or at least not the same amount of them.


The guy from Transporter is another to put on the list

[Jaymeany]

Russel Crow when he first started (Gladiator) and I can't believe I'm gonna same this Brad Pit in Troy

Real men and actor just don't go together.

Want a "real man" go meet someone in a profession such as:

fire jumper
coal mining
high steel workers
fishermen
etc.

There are plenty of real men in our society, but since they can't afford Armani, you never see them on TV so you don't know they exist.
