The Art of Manliness: Man up. No girls allowed. (30 days to a better man day 3)

This is the Art of Manliness.

This is a site filled with things that your dad should have taught you. Don't act like you already know how to be a man because in all likelihood, you don't, but you've been making things work so far in life. But every man has problems, and every man isn't sure how to act or dress or speak in certain situations, so here it is, your reference material, by men, for men, about men.

There are skilld every man should possess, like:

Cowboy Recipes that'll put hair on your chest

7 Basic Knots Every Man Should Know

How to Break in a Baseball Glove

and if you're way behind on the manliness curve, things like: How to change a flat tire

There's money and career advice like:

How to be a financial stud

and Network like a man

And a slew of other, vital information that every man should know in the catagories of:

Relationships and Family

Dress and Grooming

and Health and Sports

This is important reading, gentlemen. If you've ever had problems with women, fitness, money or attire in any shape or form, chances are there's some good advice on that site, as well as a wealth of advice that you would love to hear, but you didn't even know you needed.

So here is a thread where we talk about what it means to be a man, and how great it is to be able to pee standing up.

Update:

30 Days to a better man progress:
some of us decided we wanted to collectively become better men, and use each other to keep accountable, follow along, participate or catch up here.

Day 1: Defining your Core Values

Day 2: Shine your Shoes

Day 3: Find a mentor.

    I've taken several survival camps and could probably be dropped into the middle of the forest and not die horribly within a few days. It'd be at least a week before I went feral and joined the animals.

    And the whole peeing standing up thing is pretty aces. Makes using public washrooms slightly more tolerable.

    I've peed standing up in many locations and it is indeed pretty boss.

    Do they have articles on how to clean and butcher wild game? They should. Oh hey, hi5 Bully.

    I read through it. It's actually pretty interesting. The Marine Corps fitness test was interesting - I could definitely do the running and crunches in the higher-point range, but I suck at pull ups. As in, I am terrible.

    But man. That is a pretty cool list of things to do.

    The straight razor shave is extra great if you warm up your shaving foam

    There's a barber shop about three blocks from my apartment. Not a hairdresser, but a barber, an important distinction.

    I should go in and get a straight razor shave. Always kind of wanted to.
