Question:
Why do some guys have poor hand-eye coordination? Does that mean they are not 'man enough' and are losers?
2007-07-28 09:00:35 UTC
I'm a guy and I'm not really athletic. The problem with society today is that society expects guys to be sporty, muscular and have good hand-eye coordination, which I don't. My friends looked down at me when I was younger. Does that mean I'm a loser and not 'man enough', or is there hope for improvement?

There is always room 4 improvement. Are you a loser, just because you have poor hand-eye coordination. You need 2 work on your self esteem . You also need 2 get some friends some true friends.SELF-ESTEEM

a lot of people give answers that are views but not actually realistic i wonder why people do that anyway. I have friends i know alot of guys who get the piss taken out of them because of that but depending on how you take a insult can make a difference if you show people it hurts you some people will try to hurt you more its like that dont know why



if you take things as a joke and cuss back as a joke people will laugh at the cusses and the fact your cussing each other and it will be seen as fun banter



i was really bad at co ordination and sports den i took up martial arts and played alot of computer games it helped fix da problem and helps make friends try counter strike source a pc game dats online and is cheap type in steam in google download dat and buy da game i'll see you on there and help ya out



see you lata dude!!

You are NOT a loser mate ok. Anybody that tells that you are or that you are 'not man enough', or looks down at you, needs to go look in the mirror mate and look at their own faults, in particular the reasons for their own deep seated insecurities which are manifested in this way by the hurtful comments that they sling at your door.



'GIVE THEM ENOUGH ROPE AND THEY WILL HANG THEMSELVES' is an expression that is used over here in the UK because basically what you are doing is continue doing to them what and how you yourself feel you should be treated. I.e. by being nice and friendly you can make them change and over time they will see that you have something that is quite valuable. Just watch how they all fall over themselves trying to outdo each other to get a piece of you. That would be their mentality also. But at least you will have shown them that at least one decent, kind, caring, compassionate, sensitive human being (YOU) can behave in an honourable way and that it is their problem to deal with and not yours. So don't you dare let them try to dump their insecurities at your door. This sounds like what they are doing ok. You have a lot going for you, use those talents and gifts wisely ok. You just have not found the right niche audience yet where you can truly blossom, feel truly safe and above all be surrounded by people that love and accept you for who you are and what you have to offer. You are a unique individual and you need to celebrate that as well as love yourself more, give yourself more 'me' time. By doing the things that truly make you happy.



I hope this helps you mate, truly I do. Take care and best of luck with all future endeavours, knowing that you got somebody here who wants you to do well. Soapwatcher

Most people believe that once they are diagnosed with some vision problem and start wearing eye glasses or contact lenses to correct them, they will have to do so for life in order to see better. Those who want a permanent solution to improve eyesight typically resort to Lasik or other corrective eye surgeries. But you you can also improve your vision without surgery and can see perfectly well without using eyeglasses or contact lenses. You can check here to know how https://tr.im/d5f13

No,that does not make you a loser.

Find something you enjoy doing, or something you are good at and concentrate on that.

The thing that needs improvement is your self esteem.

You sound just like my husband was in his younger years.He was clumsy and not very muscular.

He was horrible at sports,but he was man

enough to serve in the Marines!!

Hold your head up and just start enjoying life.

Use Albert Einstein and Bill Gates as an example of you. Two of the most successful people in the world, yet one had dyslexia and got horrible grades, and one was considered a loser and a nerd where he was.

you need to think seriuosly about you are going to sk befor you ask question! I have poor eye to hand coordination, and it is cause by Parkinsons diseases,not fro being a " loser " I suggest that you think twice abou how your question is going to sound to others before you ask anymore questions in the future.

There are other ways to be manly. I find the author of a good novel to be very manly. A Journalist going in harm's way to report the news is manly. A faithful husband and good father is about as manly as they get.

I don't think being athletic makes you a man. What you do in life will. Look at the lives of most of the players in sports. They are bankrupt, alcoholics,divorced, and miserable.

Many women prefer a man with a large wallet as opposed to large biceps.

It has nothing to do with manhood it simply means that you have poor co-ordination.

Don't dispair sport is not for everyone.

It means your friends are stupid. Screw that macho crap. The more macho a man is, the less secure in his manhood he is.
