My father is a good man. He is devoted to his family, works hard, and clearly loves my mom after 28 years of marriage. He is caring, compassionate, and a good friend as well as a good dad. He is our rock. My fiance is a good man. He is a bleeding heart in a lot of ways, but he possesses an inner strength I envy.
I think what makes a good man are traits that make good human beings, regardless of sex: caring and compassion for others, interest in life and the wider world, consideration for others, empathy, good listening skills, inner strength, supporting those you love, the desire to make a difference, etc.
Who can men look up to now? I think there are some great male role models right here on TFP, men who embody the traits I mentioned above.
