There Are No Real Men Anymore
No males in my generation want to be men. Why do I say this? I met an extractor. His quote?
“Have you seen the movie Taken? That’s what I do.”
That is a man. He goes to foreign countries to retrieve people who have been kidnapped. Not only does he go, but he comes back. Comes back! That’s a man. When he’s not doing that, he’s a bodyguard for Saudi princes and people like Ralph Lauren. And before all of this? He was a New York City drug cop in the eighties. Boom. Full man. He’s been a man for decades!
I could have talked to that guy for hours. Talk to men of this generation?
“Oh, I’m a web developer.”
“I work in advertising.”
“I re-tweet things for companies.”
That last one is a job? Unbelievable. Men of older generations wanted to make an honest living. Men now want to make money by making statements in 140 characters – by making videos or taping a friend getting hit in the nuts with a voiceover of what the pole says.
