And, they might have what comes out of the North bound end of a South bound horse for brains :lol: :!:

Seen a lot 20, 30, etc...somethings that weren’t men yet much less gentlemen.
There’s lots of reasoning that being a man automatically comes with age, I’ve seen 30 year old children.
It doesn’t come with education or wealth with possessions or even making a baby doesn’t make you man either.
It’s a switch that has to be flipped in your head.
Putting others before yourself. Standing up for what’s right even if it’s against popular opinion.
Shouldering responsibility and giving what you do 110% even when no one seems to notice and never quitting.
Being a father and setting a quiet example others would follow. All that doesn’t happen overnight but that mindset can happen in an instant when you get it. At that moment though when it does,for you, your a man.

From what I have seen most of the "true gentlemen" I have known are farm boys, that while they may not live on a farm were raised on one or in the area of a lot of small farmers. They are the ones that help a neighbor without being asked, or practically anyone they know for that much. They open and hold a door for a lady (generic term), or for a senior citizen or a disabled person. Unfortunately I fit into the last two classifications.
If you are not part of the solution,
you are part of the problem!!!
