Do you think of yourself as a man? Well, obviously if you are female, then the answer is hopefully “No.” But you can just substitute the appropriate ‘woman’ for ‘man’ throughout the blog.
So, do you think of yourself as a man? Well, I don’t. I am 28 years old, and I still think of myself as a boy, or even a young man, if you will. I know by societal and let’s say “nature” standards I am a man. I know by responsibility standards I am a man. But it still just sounds weird when someone calls me that.
I don’t know if it is my innate desire to always be a Toys ‘R Us kid, or if I just need something big in my life – like having a baby – to change my feelings. Maybe it is the fact that my wife says I constantly act like a 4-year old. Either way, don’t be surprised if you call me a man and I look around to see who you are talking about.
