There was a time where a man would tell you to your face what he thought of you, now you have men gossiping like women.

Once upon a time, men would tell you directly what's up. Good or bad, a man told you to your face what he thought of you and kept it moving. Those times are long gone because you have men gossiping like women about other men. That's not the code because men don't concern themselves with what other men are doing. Men keep it moving; they tend to their own affairs. A man that's on his grind doesn't have time to gossip about others because that sidetracks him from his purpose. I've had dudes gossip about me, but I could care less because I'm not what they speak about, and two, I'm not defined by what others think or feel about me even if they mean well. I appreciate well-meaning people, and those are the ones I rock with. These salt-shaking, gossiping like women dudes I have no respect for, and they have the nerve to call themselves men. If gossiping like a woman is what manhood is about, then society is in trouble. Men need to tighten up & stop gossiping like females because it doesn't look good on them. Don't let a man have the woman every guy wants, because you'll have back-ups getting in her ear about how he ain't nothing, he (the other man) can treat her better than him, etc. Depending on her loyalty, she may or may not be receptive to the gossip. I have little to no respect for men who gossip like women. If you have something to say about a man, bring it directly to him.
