The Modern Man Has Come A Long Way
Women are usually upfront about their perceived imperfections, their lack of knowledge and self-esteem issues.

Some men freely admit that they worry about their looks, whether they will keep their hair, and if they are able to provide for their family.
Like women, men have also had to suffer with issues of weight – being labeled as fat and jolly, when in fact it has really hurt deeply.
