If you live in the West, make sure you know the basic How-Tos of a car:
Change a tire
Check/fill the fluids
Push start
Jump start
and for God's sake, when you need to, go ahead and ask for directions.

Yarr!

I will need to learn this when I actually have a car. Hell, I need to learn the basics of bicycle repair too.

Carry a handkerchief. Make it a fresh clean one everyday, even if you didn't use the one you were carrying yesterday. Be prepared to give it away.

First time I'm seeing this thread, just went through all 21 pages.
Nice to learn these things from young. :)

Kudos to the OP for starting this and the rest of you for carrying it on.

A man lives with passion

and seeks to master his craft.

I just heard this and wanted to share it. It strikes a deep chord in me.

Men can speak in public while looking people in the eye. Individuals and groups are no problem for a man, he speaks clearly and succinctly in all situations. When a man speaks about something that gives him great joy it is evident to all in attendance and they in turn feel great joy.

If a person other than himself were speaking and was having a hard time a man would offer encouragement and not start laughing or cracking jokes.

Men would rather create than destroy, this applies to things as large as the planet, other life and to small things as another persons property or spirit.

A man is greater than technology and this includes his cell phone.

A man is an individual not a machine. His first impitus is to do things his own way but in a just and fair fashion.

A man sees his own path ahead through the dust cloud created by society, technology and history. His heart and mind both guide him.

Know basic First Aid.
At some point, you will be glad that you do.
CPR training is a big plus as well.

Men who care? Oh yes you can find them on Ebay; very expensive though because they're not a lot of them, except for here of course!

Men on ebay? Interesting, do I get a warranty or a 90 day return policy? Or once I open the package I'm stuck with it?

Since the man is the physical dominant in the relationship (most of the time), it is important to never use any type of physical force to restraint (or the like) of your partner in case of an argument. A real man control his temper, and are not afraid to sorry.
Additionally he knows how to ask for help if needed.

Always try to be on good terms with the girls closest friends and family. After all, they were there before you, so they are an important part of her life. However, don't try too hard, especially with her girl friends. After all, your woman should always have the first priority, and thereby the attention.

I just heard this and thought it was really cool.

Be the ride that women want to be on. Go to another country and train with actual muay thai fighters. Go study tantra with actual practitioners. Go find a shaman and study with them. Know your fear and become intimate with it. Lean into that fear and do something that scares you every single day. Do it just for the fun of it.

You are 100% responsible for all the emotional pain in your life. Whether it's from an ex wife, a girlfriend, your parents, doesn't matter. It's YOU. It's your choice. What are you going to do with the stuff going on inside of you?
When you clean up all of that emotional sh*t inside of you, you empty it all out and leave room for better things to take its place.

As much as I would like to argue otherwise that is pretty much true. Sure there can be circumstances that would make such pain stay with you than longer than you would like or even want and I sure as hell can't seem to be able to do it, but it is up to each individual to do so.
