Joe Manganiello Men Quotations

I got to L.A. in 2000, when we were coming off the '90s: women looked like men and the men all looked like women.

When I was growing up, it was Clint Eastwood, it was Harrison Ford and Steve McQueen - these guys were tough. They were leading men, but they were also tough and physical.

I don’t think there’s any such thing as male objectification…I think that word exists only with women because there are societal pressures for them to behave a certain way and to look a certain way. Someone put it to me once: Women are sex objects and men are success objects. That was really interesting to me.

American comedies especially are all about these men being browbeaten by their wives and it's impossible for me to watch.

I was happier going back to my roots: training like men do in my hometown of Pittsburgh. Back home the guys in the gyms don't lift to look good; they're lifting to lift. They do it because they want to squat more and bench more.

Women do a lot of uncomfortable things for men - and I appreciate it all. I appreciate high heels. I appreciate thongs.

So listen, man, "weird" is my middle name. I'm ready for anything. The weirder, the better.
