    Why do MMA fighters always have super thick obliques?

    So there are really very few Jewish men, for example. Just the tiny group in Jews for Jesus.

    I mean seriously, this is pretty much the only answer that makes any sense to me so far. Or at least 'had a penis and balls', I think people who are in horrible accidents are still men even if they lose these things.

    Or are we trying to find out what a good man is

    or a mensch

    or a 'real' man.

    Some answers seem to be about what a good husband is.

    Oh, I see lori also nailed the answer.

    1) punches involve twisting motions and these muscles are critical.
    2) real men like to breathe and these muscles help block punches that might inhibit breathing.
    3) I think the obliques would also provide some protection to the kidneys, and gosh it feels bad to be kicked or punched in the kidneys.

    Hmm, I dunno.
    I've met a few women that quite like breathing too.

    Ah! - that makes a male. But is not a man a different beast? What doth he do, that separates him?

    But if you're searching a more realistic answer:

    Man
