"What can you do when you have to be a MAN?"

(1955) One famous line from my favorite Hollywood actor, James Dean, asking his father in confusion after engaging himself into a chickie run that led to a tragic accident which killed his teenager archrival.

Most of us had asked ourselves this question at one point in our lives or maybe everyday. What does it take to be a man? • Is it measured by the number of fights you've won, be it physical or intellectual?
• The face you give when you're looking at defeat, fear or rejection?
• How you react to a tickling world of temptation? …the number of girls you slept with?
• Does giving in implies cowardliness? ...or a domineering “Mine, mine, mine” sounds very suggestive?
• Or is it simply how to deal with your inevitable self? …controlling one self to any situation you'll get into.
Yes, I only have the questions. It's for you to answer…
