6. Man up can also mean for an individual to be (not "act") mature, to grow up, quit being childish, to change their ways and turn around (do a 180) and to go the correct way from now on, etc...
7. Close to that: man up can also mean for someone to stop being self-centered and to look at what they are doing, or how they are acting - for them to change viewpoints, and perspective on the situation(s) and move forward in the correct direction in their life, and/or in others lives.
8. Man up can also mean for one to be a leader, to step up to the plate when no one else will, to give it your best shot, to TRY!

6. Finally at age 38 I realized that I wasn't helping out anyone else but myself when I did those things, so I (did man up) grew up & repented of my ways (did a 180 degree turn from where I was at before, to go the other way now). It took some doing, and I am still working on it, but at least my family & friends know where I stand now.
7. Yanno, I wasn't sure where I was headed, because I really had no goals in my life; but since I met her - I (did man up) am on the right path!
8. When no one else would do their duty to step out onto the Battlefield, a scrawny Private (did man up), took notice, stood up, and started working his way through the enemy lines. His initiative brought on a great victory that day, and now he is a Hero to many.

1. To acknowledge and to take responsibility for your own actions.
2. Don't blame others for your own mistakes, problems, or issues when you know it is your fault and not anyone elses. If it is someone elses fault that you are in a situation or predicament then do the best you can to deal with it.
3. Some people say it means not to cry; that is incorrect. We all have feelings; to deny them is to lie to yourself and others, "MAN UP" and deal with it. If you don't you only cause yourself physical, mental, psychological, emotional, and spiritual damage; and you also affect those around you in a negative way as you take it out on them, instead of dealing with it properly. EX: Jesus was a Man among men; he didn't "cry" He "wept tears of blood." He went to the cross, He manned up for things that were not His own.
Even if you are not a Christian/Believer you can surely admit that Jesus was not a wimp, coward, or a liar - He said it, and did it.

1. He did the right thing, he went back and (man up) told his boss the truth and accepted the consequences instead of letting his co-worker take the fall for it.
2. She accepted (man up)responsibility for the accident and told her Mom that she is the one who broke the antique.
3. I felt so sorry for the sobbing man. His immediate family died in a tragic head-on car accident because someone else was drinking and driving. Overall he is dealing with it the best that he can - he is letting it all out (man up), mourning as he should. He sure does have the right to do so.

4. It also means for a workplace, or corporation to deal with, take care of, and help those people that they have caused hurt, damage, and/or injury to.

4. The opposite would be the company fighting you in court with expensive, fancy lawyers who's sole responsibility is to twist situations/blame and/or to lie for and protect the company or organization that harmed the person(s) sitting at the other side of the table, hurt for the rest of their life. When someone does this all for money; it's NOT manning up - it's the farthest thing from it. It's all about doing the right thing... and this is not it.
5. The boss had no idea who had dinged up the car door. But she went to her boss and told her boss that it was she that accidentally dinged up the new Porsche. She is admirable for (man up) her responsibility, and she gained a lot of credibility with her boss too. She asked for forgiveness, and all is fine & well now between them. I think it may have started a new friendship between them, just because she owned up (man up) to it.

1. A "Texto-motive" is what a "Chain texter" drives to and from here and there. They THINK it is just another mobile device to be used to get a signal for texting.

2. "Text-o-mobiles" are the equivalent to a text-o-motive vehicle.

1. Man! If you paid as much attention to your driving as you do to your darn phone, your points wouldnt cost you so much per car insurance payment, b/c you wouldnt have so many accidents - you "Text addict'!
2. The lady in the left lane sat there FOREVER when there was a green arrow, no matter how much people were honking at her; she thought she owned a "Text-o-motive", or something. How annoying! My wife wanted to get out and give her a proper beat down!

1. When a person is has chirped the tires; it simply means that they put enough foot down on the gas pedal to make the tires chirp. It's not like they are smoking their tires; they just hit the gas enough to get a "chirp" sound from the rubber of the tire as the tire turns fast against the road.
1. I could not believe it! I was out with Grandma and she was driving and Grandpa and I were riding; and then GRANDMA chirped the tires when she took off! She was sick of the guy next to us cutting in and out of traffic so she chirped off and beat him to the next intersection before he could cut in front of her again. I was cracken up!

1. When a woman spills all over; it means that she is/was VERY sexually pleased that she came so hard and so much that it just spilt out, gushing all over. In other words, you just gave her a six lip smile.
