What is cool?

I believe that men should be tough and strong. But I also feel that it is okay for them to show other sides of their personality in public. Men have always been known as strong and protectors of their families and women. Our culture is changing though, and women are becoming more independent. Women are starting to have some of men's characteristics and are getting more rights.

To me there is no such thing as cool. What is said to be "cool" in America changes over the years. Things go out of style and aren't considered "cool" anymore. I don't think men should always try to project the current image of "cool". I feel that every person in this would should be their self, a unique individual.

I think that being "cool" is liked to how manhood gets defined in American culture. If a man does the "cool" things, then they are usually considered manly. Men display their coolness by being physically fit, having a lot of girls, a nice car, usually athletic, and being popular. Sometimes people get the wrong impression and feel that to be "cool" drugs and alcohol have to be involved also. Cool is just an term that doesn't exist to me. Everyone should be their self, regardless if they're "cool" or not.
