I really enjoyed reading this.

I come from a family that has more males then females in it. And whenever we get together, I love how my male cousins, brother, dad and uncles all razz each other on any number of subjects. From things that happened as we were kids (or when my uncles where kids) to just being the poor guy that was the last one to arrive late with his family. It’s an awesome thing to see. The heartfelt male bonding, the hearty laughs that inevitably follow and the playfull comebacks that get batted around throughout the day. My one Uncle use always go tell all the boys in the family to “go take a nap” in a kidding way. Even today as adults, the guys will banter with each other to “go take a nap”. Among some other fun catch phrases that stuck with our family.

Funny. I was just thinking of writing an article about my “dude moment” every Sunday.

It involves ripping down the hill from Santa Teresa on my bike and barreling out to Ipanema and back, as fast as I can go, listening to ’70s crap pop and ’80s punk rock on my MP3. No helmet.

This really scares all the women in my life to no end, but it makes me feel terribly free.

I must be a terrible person. I read on the toilet too. I don’t understand the big deal, I don’t use the paper/book “for anything else” and I wash my hands.

These girls sound like they never got over kooties.

I guess a guy thing I do and it bothers my wife is that I still tuck a paper napkin in my shirt collar during most meals. I am a good looking, athletic 32 year old guy and I am not a nerd. I grew up in a household where our strict military dad required us kids (4 boys) to protect our clothing during meal times by tucking a paper napkin around our necks. This was not optional and I guess I don’t trust myself eating spaghetti or other messy stuff without wearing a napkin bib. I don’t see what the big deal is. I would rather have any sauce or stains landing on the paper and not my shirt or my tie as I tend to buy expensive clothing.

I’d have to say that my fav. guy ritual is definately masturbation. No matter if you’re gay, str8, bi or anything in between, we all know that every dude does it and only dudes do it the way dudes do, so I feel a connection and bong with all other guys, knowing its what we all do, even if some of us don’t talk about it or want to admit it. And, what the hell, it’s a pretty fun thing to do…so go rub one out and enjoy yourself! Peace out, bros…

I really enjoy the visceral , the sensual and the cerebral in equal measure. Riding my bike hard enough to crash but not hard enought to keep me off it. Fixing or building something with tools powerful enought to maim you. Spending a few sweaty naked hours with an enthusiastic and beloved woman. The smell of my children and the strength of their hugs. A David Lynch or Christopher Nolan film or a Neil Stephenson book. I also really love being doted on by women in very small ways by women who are not my wife making me a plate of dinner or making me a drink. Crying because I don’t have a father. It’s all part of being a man.

During the Jewish high holidays, before the person playing the Shofar blows each note, the congregation calls out the name of the sound (it’s not a jazzy call-and-response; the requested sounds are in a specific sequence). Throughout the year, when I’m alone and let out a truly excellent burp, I honor it by calling out the name of a nearly corresponding Shofar sound.

Mowing the lawn.
And when it’s done, take a deep breath of air that smells of grass clippings, survey the results, mop my brow and enjoy a large glass of iced tea.

Shaving, too. Hate beards.

As a female to male transsexual, I think about stuff like this all the time: I’m literally going through my teenage years as an adult (acne and squeaky voice at the age of 25!), and I have to figure out things more on my own than a biological male. I have two favorite rituals that come to mind.

1. I love practicing my Maury-style ‘You’re Not the Father’ victory dance.
2. Using the excuse ‘I’m gay’ to my female friends’ significant others to prevent them from getting jealous when my friends hang out with me. Though I’m not technically what they think of when they hear this, it’s not a lie, either. (I’m primarily attracted to men, with some exceptions, but I’m still not after my friends.)

Shalom Y’all,

Fixing anything.

My grandfather could fix anything he could touch, even though his formal education stopped around the 8th grade.

He and my father are amazing men.

B’shalom,

Jeff
