[quote=PINETREE ,25967]I supposed men being physically stronger, started off protecting the weaker sex. But physical attributes may not be the only reason for a man to be a Man. As MAN move up the civilisation ladder, they gradually shift towards more astute values. A man became more of a man not just via his physical strength but his attitude, behaviour, mental prowess, etc. These seem to be reserved more for the man than for the women who has always been playing more of a shadow role in society. The decision maker tends to be the man.For China who always prize education, the men were the ones who received education in preference to the women. Generally there were 2 types of men - the strong ones ( with physical attributes - eg workers, military men, etc ) & the scholars. The scholars were deemed to be the preferred men for most upper class women to seek after - they represent the mental prowess of a person. These scholastic men in those days were actually physical weaklings who couldn't do anything other than recite poems, write & reason. Probably they were the more romantic ones, too. Their most important attributes were the power of knowledge and reasoning.These were the heroes of the day & gals would swoon over them.I think the western world never encountered such a state - physical power seems to be the order of the days past and present.What do u think ??[/quote]
