understanding, truly understanding what real masculinity is. There's a lot of toxic voices in society right now that portray masculinity— they're trying to say it's masculine, but it's actually just outright arrogance and ego. It's about making everybody dominate. It's about being cold and distant. And it's like being an iceberg, and it's like nobody wants to cuddle with an iceberg. Okay? Just so you know. However, those things actually show emotional immaturity rather than masculinity. When a man is confident and strong enough to be gentle, to be protective, to look out for others, this is a man who understands true masculinity. Masculinity as God intended it to be. Sometimes it's just verbally defending things, standing up for what's right. But when you have that, that is is what sets you apart from all the other guys. That's what helps her see, again, that integrity, that deep understanding of what it truly means to be a man.
