Man Leaves Wife After Years of Belittlement Over Not Being 'Manly Enough,' She Changes Her Tune After Seeing Him Happier and More Relaxed Without Her

Welcome, tea-spillin' sisters. How do you define manliness? Your answer will likely be incredibly different depending on your age, your culture, where you live, and personal preferences.

There is no less manly man than one who refuses to bake or do his daughter's hair because his ego is too fragile.
