The purpose of this directive is to provide a clear and formal framework for how men shall relate with women in society. The directive recognizes women as critical participants in social, professional, and familial spheres, while emphasizing that men, as leaders, are expected to exercise judgment, restraint, and taste. This document aims to balance support, presentation, and financial responsibility with the preservation of dignity and adherence to natural norms. While it may appear comprehensive, each section is carefully crafted to prevent men from being overzealous, misled by marketing, or tempted into indulgence that is neither necessary nor tasteful.

Men are expected to lead with clarity, responsibility, and foresight. This involves recognizing that women, while autonomous, may occasionally seek guidance — preferably the kind that aligns with natural aesthetics rather than passing fads.

Honor and Clarity

Men must maintain decorum in all interactions with women, ensuring that communication is unambiguous, polite, and considerate. Failure to do so may result in social confusion or, worse, embarrassment..

Promotion of Natural Alignment

Men should encourage women to pursue grooming and presentation that enhance natural beauty. Artificial distortions, excessive modifications, or fleeting trends are discouraged..

Sustainability and Balance

All engagements and sponsorships should be proportional to income, social context, and long-term goals. Overextension in service of novelty is counterproductive..

Prudence and Discretion

In all matters, men are encouraged to employ judgment consistent with both personal and social responsibility. Decisions should be rational, documented where appropriate, and reviewable..

Conduct with women requires not only civility but an acute awareness of social cues, context, and timing. Hosting, gifting, or engagement must be measured, predictable, and thoughtful, ensuring that generosity does not resemble recklessness.

Courtesy and Reliability

All arrangements, whether informal or formal, must be communicated clearly and honored promptly. Deviations undermine credibility and trust..

Grace and Reciprocity

Appreciation must be expressed appropriately. Entitlement is a social contagion that men must resist spreading..

Honesty and Safety

All interactions must preserve dignity and consent. Coercion or manipulation voids any purported achievement..

Hosting Standards

Men are encouraged to host within means. Elaborate displays that serve spectacle over substance are strongly discouraged..

Men may sponsor or influence grooming and presentation practices, but only within parameters that promote natural alignment, personal dignity, and social propriety. The following subsections outline approved practices and explicit restrictions.

3.1 Hair Styles

Men shall support hairstyles that are neat, culturally acceptable, and functional. Cornrows and ponytails are approved for their simplicity, elegance, and ease of maintenance.

Approved. Cornrows, Ponytails.

Discouraged. Heavy extensions, frequent dye cycles, wigs/weaves that distort natural hair appearance.

3.2 Nail Styles

The Board frowns upon sharp and excessively long nails. Evidence from WHO guidelines underscores that long nails may serve as vectors for harmful microbes and increase the risk of accidental injury. Bubble Bath remains the approved standard — understated, neutral, and safe for both host and social environment.

Approved. Bubble Bath.

Discouraged. Neon finishes, glitter gradients, ornate art, sharp or excessively long nails.

3.3 General Grooming

Men are encouraged to sponsor clothing, accessories, and grooming that reflect practicality, dignity, and modesty. Designer labels and conspicuous fashion statements should be avoided unless they demonstrably serve the natural alignment of aesthetics.

Approved. Simple, neat clothing; culturally respectful accessories.

Discouraged. Conspicuous branding, vanity-driven fashions, trends that exhaust financial resources.

3.4 Scents & Perfumes

Scent may be an area where personal preference allows for wider discretion. Men may sponsor perfumes and body mists they personally enjoy, provided these do not overwhelm the environment or draw attention from substance to spectacle.

Approved. Fresh, woody, floral, or otherwise dignified scents personally appreciated by the man.

Discouraged. Overpowering or novelty-heavy fragrances purchased purely for status or label recognition.

Financial support is an area where men may exercise both generosity and prudence. Expenditures must be proportional, purposeful, and dignity-preserving.

Support Within Means

Men should sponsor only what their income reasonably permits..

Priorities

Health, essentials, and professional alignment take precedence over trends, labels, or non-essential embellishments..

Restrictions

  • No installment plans for fleeting fashions
  • No recurring commitments that exceed income
  • No indulgences that undermine self-respect or dignity

Documentation

All sponsorships and agreements should be clear, documented where appropriate, and reviewable. Transparency is preferred over improvisation..
