Until recently, being a man was very simple: eat, sleep, reproduce. And now we have been dragged into a race that is sometimes damn exhausting.
Throughout history, man was first a child and then an adult. He grew from “We Lived with Grandma...” to Brahms in an instant. But then - at the dawn of the sixties - the word "teenager" appeared in dictionaries, and a completely new species saw the world. The kind that had money but didn't have to worry about loans, feeding kids, or paying bills.
The creation of the word "teen" opened up perhaps the greatest market niche since the resurrection of Christ.
After all, now - in the gap between lullabies and Brahms - a gaping seven-year void had opened up, which could be filled with all sorts of boogie-woogie, and at the same time a burger with Coke and a pair of Levi’s.
The problem is that today all possible ways of exploiting teenage naivety have been explored. So some smart guy in designer glasses and a turtleneck decided it was time to create a new kind of customer: a new breed that needed to be fed a whole new line of products that its representatives never even knew existed. So he came up with a concept called “men.”
Until recently, being a man was very easy. Eat. Sleep. Multiply. The only real catch was having to remember which day you had to make a nice cream pie and which day you had to come home in a bearskin coat and do the rough housework. And I certainly never had to worry about writing on the elastic of my panties.
But not now. Not only that, you are expected to rub dirt into your hair, polish your nails, buy things to make your teeth shiny and white, and go to the gym to stay in shape. And long gone are the glory days when wristwatches were bought to tell the time.
Open any glossy magazine and you will be stared at by stone-jawed men advertising watches during some heroic outdoor activity. Put on Breitling and you are no longer Garrett Syrnikov from accounting. You're Clint Sledgehammer, and on the weekends you ride your Confederate Hellcat between pylons in the Nevada desert. Put on an IWC and you're a deep sea diver. Wear an Omega and you're George Clooney.
You go to a movie premiere these days and some dumb sheep with a microphone always asks, “Who are you wearing?” I don't carry anyone, you fool. I was wearing things that were lying on the floor near the bed.
However, now this is not enough. A man must be sophisticated, must know how many buttons should be on the cuffs of his jacket - and God forbid he wear a shirt with a breast pocket.
Worse than that. Recently, on a British Airways flight, I glanced at a duty free magazine, from the pages of which the editor in his column informed me that with the arrival of spring, I should treat myself to a new scent. And the choice was very wide.
As it turns out, I have to wear "Acqua di Parma" to work, which makes me smell "clean, fresh and professional." What?! How can you smell like professionalism? This concept is not one that has any known smell. It's like smelling of modesty, indifference or sadness.
Then there is “Eternity for Men”, which is “ideal” for tough men because it smells like the sea. Which sea? Mediterranean? Caspian? Or a tiny swamp not far from my country house? There is also plenty of sea there - at least, seasickness covers a kilometer away.
We might prefer 212 VIP Men, with warm, sweet and sexy notes of vanilla, sandalwood and tonka bean. What kind of tonka bean is this? Well, I was not too lazy to dig up information - and everything is very sad. They are banned by the US Food and Drug Administration, they cause liver damage in rodents, they are used in occult rituals, their constituents prevent blood clotting, and they are also used to flavor tobacco.
Still want to put on some perfume to impress the girls at the club? The flag is in your hands.
Only without me. And in general - spare me all this nonsense. According to British Airways magazine, I should layer my scents - first shower gel, then deodorant, aftershave, conditioner and eau de toilette. I don't have time for this. And I don't need a manual about the differences between cologne and eau de toilette, because I don't want to smell like a German or a swamp. I want to smell what I ate or what I did. I am a man, and perfume is for women.
Shopping is also for women, and our friend with thin glasses seems to have forgotten about this. Of course, I understand that some men like to walk around the city in their free time, getting haircuts and buying ridiculous clothes. These people are called footballers and restaurant critics. They have scrotums, but they are not men at all.
A real man will think long and seriously if he is asked to choose between selling his own children for organs and going to a booth to try on pants. Trying on pants is, without a doubt, the worst thing that can happen in a man's life. This is water torture, a trip to the dentist and cancer all rolled into one.
Look at the man in the supermarket. It looks like a blur of activity blurred by fast forwarding: buy what you need at the moment, and then get the hell out of there. For a man, stocking up in a supermarket is like removing a band-aid: the faster, the better.
How many men have you seen in the market town of Bicester in Oxfordshire? No one. This place is simply heaven on earth for women, but for me it is one of the circles of hell: a whole street of things that do not fit.
Instructions
First of all, girls want to see a smart guy next to them who will have high intelligence. Ladies do not want to have anything to do with representatives of the stronger sex who are not able to carry on the simplest conversation. Girls attribute reading and erudition, the ability to communicate with ladies and understand them, to the intelligence of a modern guy. Some women attribute a man's intelligence to his ability to earn a living for himself and his significant other. The most important thing that should be present in a girl’s chosen one is the ability to seem smarter than other guys.
The second important quality of a modern man is reliability. You can always rely on him in a difficult situation, he will definitely provide you with support and help you cope with your problems, even if he does not solve them on his own, but he will definitely give you valuable advice. At a difficult moment, he must be ready to come to the aid of his lady. This same character trait includes the ability to be responsible for your words and keep your promises. Although this quality is mandatory for a modern guy, it is not enough to make a girl happy.
The caring nature of a modern guy is also highly valued by the fair sex. A man must, like a wizard, guess and fulfill the little whims of his beloved. Yes, he may not do incredible things for his woman, but he is capable of doing what is in his power. Just don’t overdo it, as excessive care and guardianship can cause the girl to react incorrectly. The guy may seem intrusive or boring to her, so there should be a golden mean in everything.
Generosity is another trait needed by the modern guy. He should not skimp on dates with his soulmate, on gifts for her, and even on compliments. Ladies will be pleased to know that there is a representative of the stronger sex nearby who can provide financial support at any moment. But this quality should not be confused with extravagance. Wasteful spending of money will not be a plus for a man’s character.
There are many more qualities that girls attribute to modern guys. These include success, willpower, determination, romance, sense of humor, generosity and even beauty. Modern people need to be able to properly manage their time and find a minute not only for work, but also for dates with their beloved. In addition, girls really value the absence of bad habits, the ability to dress stylishly and look neat, since now people first of all pay attention to the behavior of those around them.
columnist
The world does not stand still: either a new model of a driverless car will be released, or the technology of “smart” housing will be patented, or staff will be replaced by robots. Changes do not pass by our own characters and lifestyles. Imagine how surprised your mother would be if she went on a date with a modern man today. She would probably even be shocked if the candidate showed up without flowers, on a scooter, in sneakers, slightly late, and even at the end of the date he started talking briskly about spicy topics (oh my God, this is only the first meeting!). But this picture seems almost familiar to us, because not only the culture of dating and the arrangement of roles in romantic relationships have changed, but also our own preferences, who we want to be in a couple and how we want our partner to be. We decided to figure out how modern young people differ from their version from the past?
A modern man does not kill himself according to the “apartment-car-house” scheme
No, there are, of course, those who still believe that a “normal” car should equal 200 salaries, and it is legitimate to pay off the debt for 30 or 40 years in a row for your dream apartment. But such credit “mammoths” disappear every year due to crises and instability, as well as simply a changed mentality. Men do not seek to trump their property and feel quite comfortable in rented square meters and on scooters as the main means of transportation to work.
The modern man has learned not to depend on his mother
For women, this is a huge plus: the status of the mother-in-law, glorified in all jokes, as a mother-queen who makes decisions for the entire family and meticulously examines the future bride with all her eyes, remains only in jokes and in the “Let's Get Married” program. The main thing is to identify in time the deceptive candidate, who seems to have flown out of his mother’s nest, and has learned to wash dishes and clothes, but is only now actively searching for a new “mom.”
The modern man has become a little more realistic
Love to death, despite all the betrayals? Well, no, now a man will have to look for a long time for such a fool who will agree to endure everything his heart desires. Do clean socks and hot food appear as if by magic? No, this is all hard work, which is not done according to the logic “you are a woman, this is your job,” but depending on the availability of free time and with respect for your partner, who is also busy with her career and wants to watch TV in the evening instead of vacuuming .
A modern man doesn’t get down on one knee, doesn’t sing under the balcony, doesn’t just run after the ring
We are preparing to face a heap of criticism from those nostalgic for “men from the past.” You also probably have a friend who, in a state of shock, discovered that if a man is kicked out the door with his things in hysterics, he will actually leave - and forever, and will not fly back an hour later with a ring and a bouquet. Yes, the number of serenades and millions of red roses has decreased in our time, but relationships have somehow become more sober and honest: if you love, then there is no need for hysterics and ballads, you can just live in peace without quarrels, and make an offer even while watching Game of Thrones on the couch.
The modern man has stopped aiming to be a sex giant
Come on, argue with us! If you look at the men around you, you’ll be reminded of this statistic that millennials have less sex than previous generations. Everything is on computers and phones. This cheerful type, who has a wife and three mistresses, or the even crazier type, who generally has a new girl every night, is less common. Either sex – “at home” or adventurous – has ceased to be a hot topic for discussion, or the statistics are right. But there are more girls a la Samantha Jones, and they have their own stories, even more exciting than some men...
The modern man does not want to be a wallet
He agrees to pay on the first date and invite at his own expense on the second, but the prospect of being known as an unlimited credit card “with legs” does not particularly appeal to him. Such a man is looking for a woman who is not offended by the idea of financial independence - on the contrary, she feels more comfortable if she lives on her own means and accepts gifts and attentions from her partner. And its retrograde opposite, under the motto “Honey, I’m a man, I pay for everything,” inspires disgusting fear in an adequate woman. After all, he will not only pay for dinner, but then he will also accidentally imagine himself as a king-baron-dictator.
A modern man does not consider himself a king and a god
Well, or he does, but not so often anymore. Thanks to feminism for the fact that women are slowly ceasing to believe in love until the grave with desperate idiots and that outright assholes can be “cured” with borscht and affection. The ranks of unpromising, but arrogant and arrogant men are thinning in the same arithmetic progression as the number of happy single girls who are not interested in idiots at all is growing. And believe me, this doesn’t make anyone feel worse. Well, maybe the grannies on the bench, who still tend to blame women for negative demographics not on economics and politics.
What are they like, the men we choose? Time flies by unnoticed, everything around is changing so rapidly. Modern society places high demands on men. If previously only very wealthy people or young gay men could afford to be well-groomed and look good, now the concept of style is inherent to everyone. Life dictates its own rules. We may not agree with this, but we are unlikely to deny the obvious.
The modern man takes care of himself and the latest fashion trends. He visits the hairdresser more often, takes care of the condition of his skin, hair, nails, and thinks about proper nutrition and physical fitness. The number of magazines about a healthy lifestyle, psychology, career, and fitness for the stronger half of humanity is increasing exponentially. They read smart and serious books, go to exhibitions and presentations, follow the latest movies, talk enthusiastically about the new Chrysler model, perfume, politics, plan their vacation in every possible detail, not being satisfied with what tour operators offer, and share their signature recipes for preparing exotic dishes. , discussing the advantages of a titanium watch case, another loss for our team. And all this with equal interest as (let’s make a footnote) women.
It’s worth stopping by with a friend at a “meat” restaurant after work to see the brightest representatives of this new species. They try to dress according to the situation. Someone prefers the classics and even in the evening with friends they try to wear a suit, which does not prevent jeans and unisex perfume from adding fresh colors to the image. Some successfully combine strict frames of glasses with a teenage sweatshirt and serious conversations about new company projects, or do not miss the opportunity to emphasize their status with expensive cigars and cufflinks.
Do men understand women's fashion better than us? Are you ready to spend hours shopping with us, choosing exactly what will highlight the features of our girlish figure? Whatever will be appropriate will suit the color and texture. What shoes should I buy to go with my dress? They also meticulously look at fabrics, tags and seams; they can try on shoes for hours, leading lively sales assistants in sports and other stores into a state of nervous breakdown.
Men have become somewhat similar to us. They take care of themselves and devote more time to their appearance. After all, looking impeccable and meeting certain social expectations is one of the laws of a society in which the level of competition is much higher than even 10-15 years ago. To succeed, it is important to have not only a good education, work experience, knowledge in a certain field, the necessary contacts and status appearance. They save time and try to get everything done.
They protect their freedom more carefully, listen to their desires, become more open in expressing their feelings, and in some cases more vulnerable and emotional.
They have their role models, but they're not much like teen idols. They have more reasons to worry and more tasks awaiting them to solve. Men try to conform, not to the stereotypes that have developed over the years in society, but to themselves. Search for yourself and your individuality, unique and unrepeatable; the desire to express oneself, to experience the world as fully as possible - this is how we see men. They no longer have that overt internal aggression and tension, brutality and narrow-mindedness, fear of showing their experiences and anxieties.
Such men are closer and more understandable to us, as if together we find the key to mutual understanding. The borders between us that until recently seemed insurmountable are being erased.
And this places completely different demands on us women. Understand, listen and change along with the new things that happen around us.
