A modern 21st century man does not only think about watching sports on TV during the weekend, nor does he always talk about sex with his friends or put his work before spending more time with his family. I think that this conformist, monotonous and uninterested image of life is gradually disappearing.
I have seen that nowadays men pay more attention to aesthetics, take care of their chivalry, show tolerance towards others, and are concerned about their academic, professional and technical training. Moreover, his character is more adventurous and non-conformist, with his own values.
The man in this era must be brave, humble, sincere, loyal and fight against injustice. Other traits to highlight are his good manners, his open and supportive mentality, and his ability to socialise with other people. He should always have a tolerant attitude and respects the ideas of others. Additionally, she supports a woman's choice to work and make her own decisions about her health and body.
He takes into account what a woman likes, knows her hobbies and preferences. The modern man is concerned about his family, spending time with them and that all his loved ones are well. He is also concerned about his relationship, the work situation and political issues.
Important in men is their ability to control jealousy and domineering situations in relation to their partner. By seeing these examples their sons and daughters will be less violent and less likely to commit acts of violence against their family or society when they grow up.
A characteristic of modern man is that he tries to discover himself within, and in that search he finds an innate talent that he can develop to achieve some goal.I for example discovered that I have a lot of analytical skills in the financial field, which has allowed me to achieve many personal and professional goals, and I enjoy my job very much, I feel very comfortable.
A true 21st century man does not look down on anyone because of the way he is dressed, nor does he pass judgement on the wardrobe choices others make. He understands that we all put together our image guided by comfort, confidence and our agenda.
A man must have the ability to align the goals and objectives that stand between the present moment and what he wants to achieve. He is persevering, which helps to know which paths to take.
Sincerity with ourselves and with other people is a key factor that man today applies to get what he wants, and at the same time he knows how to forgive, thus moving forward in life by getting rid of feelings such as anger and resentment.
Humour is a very important attribute that allows man to move along the path of life and overcome the obstacles that arise, joy, and positivity above all, leaving aside what is not practical.
Nowadays modernity is associated with speed and efficiency, when a man makes a decision and involves these factors he either succeeds or fails, however from this failure he learns and is able to take the right path towards the achievement of his goals.
