5 Signs To Know You Are Becoming A Man by Rapmoney(m): 12:35pm On Aug 16, 2015
Whenever the term 'being a man' is mentioned, especially in the societal sense, some folks erroneously think it entails having a bold or bass voice, big manhood and surplus beards like that of Rick Ross!!! wink. Far from it!!! There are so many guys who, societal-wise, can hardly be referred to as 'men' due to certain characteristics or traits that surround their lives!!! cool

Becoming a man is a different issue entirely. It entails that a male folk should be in a certain stage of his life where he would be a able to take important decisions in his life and have total control of his life too!

5 Signs To Show You Are Becoming A Man:

1) Paying Bills: When you start paying bills such as house rent, light bill, cable or decoder fees, security levy, refuse disposal fee, etc, you should know you are becoming a man. It means you have started taking charge of your financial responsibilities! You now have the capacity to determine what and how you should or should not buy...again, it is not by big manhood or empty swagg!!!

2) Decision Making: When you cannot take charge of your life or make decisions that affect your life, you are not a man yet. You are still a boy. If others, such as relatives and friends still control your life and influence your decisions, you are very far from becoming a man. It doesn't have anything to do with your age here wink. If you like, make your bia-bia long pass Third Mainland Bridge sef! grin. A man takes major decisions that shape his life. He must not wait for people to come do that for him.

3) Independence: This does not just mean being free to galivant, drink, smoke and chase big buttocks!!! No! It means being able to cater for most, if not all your needs. Though, seek help from friends and family members sometimes, but it doesn't mean we should depend on them for virtually everything! I know grown folks who still collect cash for clothes, shoes and haircut from their parents and they are above 30!!! After u go come public dey come make mouth! U dor pay light bill before? Or even refuse disposal fee?
When you start becoming independent, you are becoming a real man.

4) Being Able To Cater For A Woman: I know some dudes would want my head on a platter of gold for this one but it is the bitter truth! Any guys who is not capable of catering for a woman, not just financially but emotionally and spiritually too, such guy has not attained the level. Catering for a woman doesn't entails feeding and clothing her, buying all and all for her, but there are certain things a man should initiate and handle in a home wink Some guys go about chasing girls in an indiscriminate, annoying and shameful manner instead of concerning themselves with how to make money! If she get belle now, u nor go fit even buy baby food...u go run go hide for Ogbomosho grin. When you are able to support the responsibilities that come with a woman, you are becoming a man cheesy

5) Discipline: When you start applying discipline in your life, you are turning a man. If you can spend your entire salary on prostitutes and buying drinks for fair-weather friends, you are yet to be a man. Again, nor be by big voice, big manhood or long bia-bia!

Happy Sunday...cheesy
