@ LadyForCamus Baby Jebus isn't real so Christians are stupid unless they support my gun views ... I believe that was the general thought. I digress... I need to get back to work
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

Charles Bronson was a real man.
John Wayne was a real man.
Rock Hudson was a real man.
So were Michael Jackson, Pee Wee Herman and Liberace and Sir Elton John.
Jesus Christ? Probably not.
Fiction most likely.
Charles Bronson was a real actor.
John Wayne was a real actor.
Rock Hudson was a real actor.
That may be your hyper masculine idea of how men should behave, but it isn't reality. They are products of Hollywood.
The greatest hero I ever had in my life was my mom. And she did far more for society as a lifetime teacher than those actors.
So your mom was a real man?
....
....
I used those people by those names because I would expect you might know them.
I don't expect you'd know anyone I know personally.

Lol, that sounds about right, considering the author.

I think I'll go with "capable of and willing to beat the crap out of somebody with their bare, bloodied fists." 'Tis a silly term TBH.

To my knowledge, I've never run across a fake man. But that one experience with a fake woman was quite the shocker.
Okay, it happened twice.

Do you have a grasp on reality - that which occupies physical space?
A real man is just that.
Real.
Unlike Leprechauns, fire breathing dragons, zombies or the invisible man who lives in the sky or his bastard offspring.
Paints come in colors.
Trees sometimes have leaves.
The black mamba makes a bad pet.
And so on...

Still one of my favourite songs by Joe Jackson.
