Simply being aware/sure of yourself internally without the need to 'flex' or seek outside validation from anyone, woman or man, is what I believe really gives a man a presence that makes women (not girls) go crazy.
Western masculinity and it's extreme yang principles are imbalanced.

Look at Joon, the last guy at 2:39, I believe this is what a more balanced human being that's in touch with the feminine aspect is like. I'm certain that he's not outwardly someone that feels the need to 'act tough', nor is he 'beta' in any sense. But it's undeniable Joon is one of those guys that women flock too.
I guess what i'm saying is, you're strong and you know it. People will test you because they aren't confident of their own strength, it makes no sense for you to play into the insecurity game with them.
This sounds like feminist propaganda. :: Kanye shrug. ::
How many times have you ever respected a man that didn't intimidate you in some way? Like Sarge said, there are universal natural laws that guide everything, and we have a tendency to trick ourselves into thinking we're above them.
No one respects the weak. In a boxing class, allowing yourself to become the butt of everyone jokes because they hit you hard and you take it in of "zen" isn't going to garner you ANY respect.
You know what did garner some respect? When that kid hit me, giggled and I threw the prettiest overhand right ever and laid his ass out. And then, after that, this other kid decided he wanted to spar and then had his friend RECORD the fight? Why? Because he thought he could beat me and decided he was going to have something to put on YouTube and brag to the bitches.
Guess what?
He got an overhand right too, although I pulled the punch significantly because he was controlling his contact -- PLUS, he's a genuinely cool dude and a good fighter. On the flipside, you're going to learn from experience or from force that you're not going to push me around--
I mean, seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you guys? Are you so brainwashed into being "zen" that you'll ALLOW yourself to be bullied by everyone, lose all respect from everyone (and yourself) and say, we'll it's A-OK, because I got my pillow made of zen, tears and impotent rage to comfort me at night!!!!
