Be A Man
Be Real. Be Bold.
Welcome to Be a Man
My buddies and I had a realization over the past year; there's a whole bunch of dumb assholes who think they are "The Man". From Frat Kids, to emo snowboarders, and guidos to gamer nerds you can find idiots who do a whole bunch of talking and not enough walking. We're here to change that. For some reason over the years, modernization of our culture has turned a bunch of us into pussys; 10 years ago every guy from age 4 to 18 played baseball during the spring and now we have professional gamers? Fuck that. It's now ok for a guy to get his hair fucking frosted and go tanning? Fuck that. We're here to end that shit. Being a man is about being yourself, being confident, and realizing failures are just steps to success. We're not asking you to be like us, because you will never be as awesome as us, we're just showing you and updating you what's going on today in a Man's world. After all nobody can keep up with everything, well except for us. We're gonna be talking about sports and lots of them. We'll talk about the newest technology coming out, from cars to cellphones to big TV's. Girls? You fucking bet we'll be taking about girls, the good the bad and the ugly, mainly the good. You know what else we'll be taking about? Everything. We're gonna do whatever it takes to make sure we cover everything about being a man; from fashion, because you have to look fresh, to politics, because you have to know what is going on around the world. No one likes a bullshitter.
I personally like to think of it as the James Bond approach, he was good at everything. Making drinks, picking up women, driving cars and kicking the shit out of people. He had wits and charm. And while most people can't be good at everything, we're not asking you to be like most people, we're asking you to step away from those idiots stuck in mediocrity.You wanna be man? Then step up and start taking notes. This is the start of a revolution.

Manly Shit of the Day - Travis Pastrana's rally hillclimb up Mt. Washington
Manly Shit of the Day - Travis Pastrana's record breaking run up Mount Washington. He sited the course with his co-pilot the day before then shattered the record by 20 seconds. On another awesome note, his car was like all of Subaru's Rally Team cars was built by Vermont Sports Car, just another notch on their belt too.

How to tell if she's into you
Source
So Asylum.com has posted "A guide to reading flirting body language" and here's an excerpt.
In this photograph, the woman's right foot is pointed in, taking the weight off her right hip and causing her left foot to support all of her body weight.
She's non-consciously drawing attention to her neck, which is a bit of an invitation," says Hogan. "That, combined with her very off-balance posture, could be interpreted that she likes you and trusts you."
Now before you guys try "reading" every girl with Asylums How-to-Guide. You need to remember two things.
A.) Context is everything.
Just because some girl is tilting her head back exposing her neck doesn't mean that she's into you. Instead, use your instincts. Unless you have no game at all, you should be able to tell if a girl is flirting with you or just talking with you because her hotter friend is talking to your hot friend. Trust yourself, don't get caught up in semantics. I've seen nice guys get sucked into what I like to call the I need attention syndrome that girls tend to exhibit when all the guys are talking to her friend. The nice guy starts the conversation, then buys the girl a drink only for the girl to say "Thanks" and walk away. Don't be that guy.
B.) Eye Contact is everything
While body language is a great indicator for how things may be going or whether she is interested, you should be so focused on what the girl is saying and looking in her eyes, that you should never notice what the hell her foot is doing. Get it? Be a good listener. The best way to force yourself to listen to whatever mindles dribble she may talking about is to look into her eyes when she talks. This doesn't mean shoot lasers from your eyes into hers, don't stare her down. Let her know you're listening and focused on her, not the other blonde 4 seats down the bar. If she's smart she'll do the same when you're talking. If she doesn't feel free to move on. Just remember as always, trust yourself.
Be. Bold.

We're Back... Again
Wow, it's been a while huh?
First, you know how it is over here, Quality over Quantity, all day everyday and twice on Sundays (as chays would say). It wouldn't be fair to you guys and girls if we just dished out rehashed content from other websites. So, rather than post old news, we took a break. We had other things we needed to take care of and I apologize, but I hope you're all excited as we are.
Second, we finally have a new writer, look for his introductory post later, but as a heads up this guy will be blowing up our Style Guide as well as our Music section.
Thirdly, as much as I hate it, we have joined Twitter. http://twitter.com/BeezyatBeManly Now hear me out, not everyone should have twitter; no one gives a fuck if you're a regular Joe Schmoe and you tweet about how you hate your new haircut. (Which by the way I had the worst fucking hair cut ever two days ago. I mean, I'm a guy, I'm not getting highlights or layering my hair, how hard could it be for you woman? Well me being an idiot I didn't want to wait a week for my mop to be cut by my usual barber Tony, so I went with this other girl and sure enough I ask for a 3 on the sides with scissors on top and she gives me one of the baseball buzz-mohawks. Really lady? This is your job and you can't even do it right?) With us though, this is the best way to share stories on the fly. As a note and a promise, you won't be seeing us "tweet" status updates like those idiots on Facebook who are crying out for attention. We're all business. Lastly, thanks for all the support. This is a side project for us, you'll see us constantly changing things around, seeing what works and what doesn't. If you have tips or suggestions let us know. We're working hard to deliver the best content around so sit back and relax. In the end, we're here to have fun telling the truth. Remember that.
