MACHO Or NON MACHO - What am I ?

in #macho7 years ago

Ok, where do I start with this macho - non macho story. Today I was on the floor on my knees with the vacuum cleaner in my hands and I thought to my self how unmacho is this !!!!

Then I started to think why this should not be macho, it relaxes me, the house is cleaner and my wife is happier. On the other hand, I was thinking how many of my male friends are doing that and what would they think about it.

Then I realized that most of them think that this is NOT macho.
I said ok, this is something to discuss with my Steemit community and this is going to be my series for a while.
It is not going to be only vacuum cleaner story, but staying at home with newborns instead of a wife, or whose job is to cook, or other taboo for the macho man.
You see, many ideas and stories came to my mind while cleaning.
I know many of my countrymen will call me a pussy, gay or something worse, but what can I do :) I just love cleaning!

The question of what is macho and what is not, still remains unanswered and I am sure it is different definition for the mail and different for the female readers.

Here are some funny definition and quotes of macho man that I find on the Internet

  • Male who cannot "lose face" in front of his mates or women. most macho men have the emotional range of a teaspoon and have enough empathy to fill the ink tube in a pen.
    -Macho does not prove mucho. *Zsa Zsa Gabor
  • Art is based on emotion, but being macho is based on ego! *Miguel
  • I've always had a problem with the average macho man - they've always been a threat to me. *Kurt Cobain
  • I don't like being called 'macho.' Macho basically means stupid and a real Italian man is not macho, he's smart. That's smart in both senses: elegant and clever. *Andrea Bocelli
  • Some men are so macho they'll get you pregnant just to kill a rabbit. *Maureen Murphy

Of course you are macho. Do it more often! 😍

Yes dear😍

That's good question! If @rita404 was extremely rich businesswoman with private jet, and if you were her househusband, you wouldn't even bother to think what is macho and what is not. Being househusband of extremely rich woman is my dream... so I'm pushing my wife to play lottery :))))

Winning the lottery is for you guys double win situation :) WIN - WIN!
I wish your dreams come true :)

It's about perspective :D if you ask your wife/girl she'll say you're super macho. Ask your male friends I'm not sure they will say the same.
But the main thing is not to make your 'better side' mad so... Decide by yourself haha :D

When you put it like that, there is no dilemma anymore:) :)

The most macho thing you can do is clean the house and cook lunch. You look like the most macho man in the world in those photos, just keep up the good job and macho it away. And do not forget, spread the message to all other men on the planet, this is what we want. The more men you will get to clean and cook the more macho you will be too.
Thank you.

Glad to hear opinion from the female side :) Somehow I knew that you will appreciate it, I was afraid of mail comments ;)

It´s ok to vacuum clean from time to time, but don´t believe this "the more you vacuum the more macho you are"!

Hahaha, I think you are right :)

Ma rodjo samo usisavaj da pomognes malo obitelji i skratis im muke, naravno ako imas volje i vremena, preko k ne ide nista osim zna se :D

You're a normal person! :)

I would say it depends on the Watt a vacuum cleaner has: Everything below 4KW is clearly pussy. On the top end, there are industrial vacuum cleaners with 12KW. Some of them even come as small tractors! If you get into that league you can use it as often and where ever you want. You can't be a pussy! Maybe you'd need a bigger apartment for that...

Considering the EU intending (or already having) limited the power of vacuum cleaners to 0.9KW it seems they want to turn all of us into pussies. This should concern all of us;-)

Hahahah, So only solution not to be a pussy is to bay bigger apartment and tractor vacuum cleaner :)
Just need Steem to rise to 500$, hope will be sooner than EU start with this regulative.
