The Real Man Test

understanding men and enriching their own lives if they
carefully review the "C" answers.
1. Alien beings from a highly advanced society visit
the Earth, and you are the first human they encounter.

poverty, and permanently eliminating oppression and
violence all over the entire Earth.
You decide to:
A. Present it to the President of the United States.
B. Present it to the Secretary General of the United
Nations.

5. You have been seeing a woman for several years.
She's attractive and intelligent, and you always enjoy

of you are taking it easy. You're watching a football
game; she's reading the papers when she suddenly, out
of the clear blue sky, tells you that she thinks she
really loves you, but, she can no longer bear the
uncertainty of not knowing where your relationship is
going. She says she's not asking whether you want to
get married; only whether you believe that you have
some kind of future together. What do you say?
A. That you sincerely believe the two of you do have a
future, but you don't want to rush it.
B. That although you also have strong feelings for her,
you can not honestly say that you'll be ready anytime
soon to make a lasting commitment, and you don't want
to hurt her by holding out false hope.
C. That you cannot believe the Broncos called a draw
play on third and seventeen.

dinner.

say her name, and when she turns to you, with the sea
breeze blowing through her hair and the stars in her
eyes, you tell her.
C. Tell her what?

and asks you to get your three children ready for
school. Your first question to her is:

C. "There are three of them?"
8. When is it okay to throw away a set of veteran
underwear?

developed new holes so large that you're not sure which
ones were originally intended for your legs.
B. When it is down to eight loosely connected underwear
molecules and has to be handled with tweezers.
C. It is never okay to throw away veteran underwear. A
real guy checks the garbage regularly in case somebody
and we are not naming names, but this would be his wife
is quietly trying to discard his underwear (which she
is frankly jealous of because the guy seems to have a
more intimate relationship with it than with her).

explanation for the fact that Moses led the Israelites
all over the place for forty years before they finally
