What a caper

[Mottie]

I think there could be more to this than meets the eye. Perhaps this wasn't a 'first offence' type of thing from this crotch grabbing macho president and other offences may have had little or no proof and just maybe they could be using this as a reason to get rid of him?

macho

In my eyes, "macho" is a quiet self-assurance.
Not someone who acts like a hormonal teenager, insulated from consequences by their "authority".

I've always thought different. The Oxford dictionary appears to agree with how I see it.

Thanks.
I didn't express myself correctly.
"Macho" used to be portrayed as a trait that men should aspire to, and women would find attractive.

What women would find attractive, in the opinion of men?

Burt Reynolds was "Macho", Jimmy Dean wasn't.

Going by how corrupt Fifa are and the other footballing governing bodies.
I'd have a guess that he's done alot worse that warrants his resignation.

Don’t forget Sean Connery.

Don’t forget Sean Connery.

I class "Macho" as a negative character trait (on the basis that nobody except themselves actually likes them), Burt Reynolds persona is amongst the top scoring on the "Macho" scale, while a character like Tom Selleck would score pretty low.

Jimmy Dean is pure "cool".

I don't class Sean Connery as "Macho" & he certainly isn't "cool". . . So, what is he???

A wife beater?

A wife beater?

The circumstances surrounding the words wife beater & Sean Connery are well documented, I suggest you read some of them.

Incidentally, he was a very formidable man even in his 80's, when I dare say that you wouldn't have broached the subject of wife beater with him personally.

Dead.

But he would happily hit a woman if she got too mouthy - you know, when they just won't shut up, a good slap is deserved.
That's pretty macho, isn't it?

This longer version even mentions macho

I'd refer you to my response to Mottie, but you aren't even a pimple on Mottie's @r$3 are you.

No, that is not something I aspire to.
