Precarious manhood

1.    It’s fairly easy for a man to lose his status as a man.
2.    A male’s status as a real man sometimes depends on how other people view him.
3.    A man needs to prove his masculinity.
4.    A boy needs to become a man; it doesn’t ‘just happen.’
5.    The title of ‘manhood’ needs to be reserved for those who deserve it.
6.    You’re not a man if you don’t like masculine things.
