you know nothing about being a man. This thread would have made more sense if it was a "man" who created it

I don't think there's any problem if a man is still depending on his parent if they are rich though.

Depends the age

A real man would want to get out and get a job n move out.
Face real life .. Paying bills, working see daily struggle even if he gets help from his parents

Morality and good ethics is not limited to a gender. Every human should have good morals. Likewise arguing, fighting or keeping malice.

If a guy who's still a dependant on his parents can be said not to be a man, same too is for a girl.

Just so you know, dependence takes more than living under same roof with one's parents. A man/woman can still be accommodated by their parents but still takes care of their own bills and are self-reliant. Have jobs and earn their own money.

Your definition of a real man differs from mine.
I don't want that bossy Alpha male that would be yarping all over the place.

I want a guy that has no chauvinistic-ego like average Nigerian guys.
I want a guy that works because he's not lazy not because he want to impress society or any lady.

My husband must have the combination of Alpha and Beta qualities not an African man mentality. cheesy

The topic was directed at men quite alright but my point is all what listed can apply to women too.

My reason for picking interest in it is particularly her number 1 point. I'm not comfortable when a woman attempt to make "independence" a man thing.
