Be a man,
They are told as they weep.
Be a man,
Society scoffs as they play with Barbies and “girl toys.”
Be a man,
The world utters when they take their first shot, their first hunt, their first woman.
Be a man,
In the face of your fear of heights, your fear of water, or your fear of the dark.
Be a man,
Be a man,
Be. A. Man.
But what if…
What if “being a man” was just society’s cruel judgment system?
Be a man,
And cry if you need to cry—sometimes life is sad.
Be a man,
And play with all the dolls because toys are toys, not gender identifiers.
Be a man,
And say no if tequila, killing, and women aren’t your thing.
Be a man,
And be scared of heights, water, and the dark, because being a man has nothing to do with those things.
Be a man. If that’s how you identify.
But, most importantly—
Be you.
