Man of Honour

Man of Honour: a mafioso, a "made man" in one of the Italian-origin crime families. So-called because one upon a time they considered their 'profession' to be an honourable one, providing service to their communities in exchange for 'Pizzo', protection money. As they now mostly scam and squeeze people, it's become a dark joke.

Paulie: "That rat bastard Marco still owes me $200! I'll fuckin kill him!"
Joey: "hey hey hey, forgettaboutit! Marco's a [Man of Honour} now, cross him and you'll be sleeping with the fishes"

Man of Honor 

This will not be funny, but you should read it anyways, I honestly advise you.

Please don’t discount this because of the archaic gender specificity.

A man of honor is someone who keeps their word. Who treats it like it means something. They respect themselves, enough to be chiefly interested in two things: self-improvement and honor.

It’s difficult to convey the emotional significance of words in text, so I ask that you view this with the lens of a kind, good human, not your internet facade nor who you reveal yourself to be to others. Read this with the eyes of the only person who knows you best, and who doesn’t lie within.

Self-improvement is a matter of two things: respecting yourself enough to want to make yourself better, and respecting others enough to know that their advice holds a kernel of crystallized experience, experience that, no matter how far above them you think you are, cannot be denied. Everyone has something you can learn from. Life isn’t easy; is it really so strange everybody picks things up along the way?

There are many more things that bring a man of honor really mean. All of these, though, are not things I can tell you, but things you have to learn through reflection and humble perception.
And don’t try to learn alone. If you want to truly understand, you have to talk to someone you respect and whose opinion you value. Have a conversation. I guarantee, as long as you take those words to heart, you’ll be a better person for it.

You are a man of honor, just in that you have read this, and I respect you for it. Now go all the way, and learn what you can.

Man of Honor 

An honorable man; a gentleman.

A true man of honor feels humbled himself when he cannot help humbling others.

Man of Honor 

When a bride picks a man instead of a woman to be her main attendant in her wedding. His responsibilities are similar to what a maid of honor’s might be, with some exceptions, depending on what he and the bride may or may not be comfortable with. (Example: He isn’t going to be holding her wedding dress up when she’s on the toilet.) He may also opt out of slipping a dollar into a male stripper’s thong the night before the wedding, but if he’s into that, by all means bring him along! If he’s a big guy he might also be able to move heavy stuff and double as your bodyguard if any ex-boyfriends try to crash the wedding. All in all, an excellent idea, whether you have women you want on your side as well, or if it’s just going to be the Best Man and Man of Honor.

My wife doesn’t have any female friends, but her Man of Honor was an amazing guy!
