Someone who wouldn't make the following mistakes:
The "Dear editor" entry for the definition of "man" endorses descrimination, despite quoting the rules: "Entries can document discrimination but not endorse it".
"90% are useless, worthless arseholes" - that applies not to men, but rather to users of urban dictionary, which is a small subset of "people".
The entry is also duplicated several times.

an interjection that is used in situations of surprise or dissappointment. Used in the place of "damn" or even "whoa". May be considered regional and more so used in the Texas or Louisianna and surrounding areas. Can be cross used with "meng" esp. when stretched in its use (example 2 below)
Person 1: "Yo, you see my car with the new candy paint?"
Person 2: "MAN!"
Person 1: "She just bitched slapped her man in the face!"
Person 2: "MAAAAAN!"
Person 2: "MAN!"
Person 1: "She just bitched slapped her man in the face!"
Person 2: "MAAAAAN!"

1. One who takes responsibility for their own actions.

4. One who fears nothing.

I am a man; I am also male. In this definition, a child may be a man, a woman may be a man (there are plenty of examples of this), and one who is a man by gender may also not be a man (there are plenty of examples of this, too.)

A man is not a man until he has accessed his raw, untamed energy and taken pleasure in his capacity to fight and defend himself. Only then can he transform his blind rage into the power to commit himself, to handle tensions, and to make difficult decisions. A feeling of inner security also develops; it is based on his realization that, whatever happens to go wrong, he can get help from his inner resources, from the basic energy of his aggression.
Getting in touch with masculinity and mastering that power is what enables a man to penetrate the world of women, literally and figuratively. As long as a man believes cloying sweetness or blind violence is his only means of defending himself, he cannot enjoy a complete relationship with a woman. Before he can give himself up to the intimacy of a couple, he must be able to survive rejection
and he must make the break himself if that proves necessary.
