Now, it can be argued that all three of these characteristics work together in defining a good man. But, if you had to chose one characteristic that defined the true measure of a man, what would it be?

There is no right or wrong answer. This poll is not meant to become a divisive debate where people square off and take sides. Your decisions will be based on your personal perceptions, with deciding factors such as gender, culture or age, to name a few.

Again, this is not an argument for or against any of the three choices, you are just stating your personal preference. You do not have to defend your personal preference or debate it. The choices are further broken down by gender, so make your choice accordingly.



The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

~Martin Luther King, Jr.

My personal preference, the quote by Buddha, defines the most important quality of a man, it's not his strength, but his strength of character.

I'm heading to bed now and I will join you later in the morning. Post your preference in the comments. Remember, there are no right or wrong answers, only a preference. wave

Haven't got a clue what constitutes a real man, that's for others to decide but it's no fluke that I've had some incredible romances, so I must have been doing something right.heart beating

That would count a lot for me too

How a man treats those weaker and more vulnerable than himself , whether human or animal, is
very telling for me.

And some mothers create psychological traumas, to their young kids,
and most of those trauma's,remain for life.

I'm enjoying all the answers. There are many qualities that add up to the total of what makes a man. It is interesting to see what quality stands out above the others, is subjective, according to each person.
