Ryan Reynolds because he seems very charismatic and charming. He also seems like he is authentically himself, a goofball that doesn’t take life too seriously but cares deeply for the people around him.
Leonardo Dicaprio for not giving a f what people think about him and doing his thing dating women he finds attractive even though people say it’s weird because of an age gap

Brother - he’sbeen through the emotional ringer and still holds his head high
My dad - after having me and my two sisters he came out of the closet and lived his truth. He wasn’t the typical straight masculine man, but rather adore nuanced gay man

No one in particular that I can think of, but I really admire men that are comfortable expressing themselves emotionally, but are also very respectful of other people’s feelings.
Someone who has clearly defined boundaries and can communicate this to others with any uncessary conflict.
Someone who really wants to make the most of their life and others around them, but isn’t self righteous about it.

My male role models are typically film actors and directors. I like that they have vision, are able to execute it, and work well with other people.
My friend Ben is a bit of a role model, he is completely himself in all situations - he doesn’t act as he thinks others should see him

My male role models are people that have a true work life balance. People that can still have fun while working and having a long term committed partner

It’s weird as after all this reading on here, I have assumed role models, but who the hell knows if they actually are - lot of my life was spent with celebrities, and whilst as clients, not intimate friends, the little I learned is that they, like us, as not as you think the idea of them really is… so can easily think of role models of men as I think I see them - but don’t know any of them intimately enough to properly say they are ROLE MODELS for me… I’d basically be choosing based on perceived masculinity and sexual attraction, which isn’t really the point is it ?
i wouldn’t have a particular role model in a life sense, however in the sporting sense i will
Character in books whose internal monologue seems to be organized and authentic. It’s hard to identify with these characters as I think my own internal monologues thoughts can be much more chaotic.

My friends. They are each so different, yet each of them are totally themselves. They bring different energies but they are all energies that attract other people and make them feel comfortable.
I have 2/3 really close friends and I admire them for being who they are, open and honest. They are all funny and have loads of charisma, but all in different ways. I envy their ability to not give a shit what others think.
