Celebration of male solidarity

One for all and all for one - the motto of the three musketeers and D'Artagnan, heroes of the novel by A Dumas Strong friendship and solidarity are still the basis of relationships between men centuries later Each of them will always lend a helping hand to a friend, understanding that in difficult times they will do the same for him On March 23, the Festival of Male Solidarity is celebrated - the anthem of community of interests and mutual assistance of the strong half of humanity A brotherhood of like-minded people and unbreakable friendship arises regardless of age and interests Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, characters in M Twain's novels, Timur and his team, heroes in A Gaidar's book, demonstrated loyalty to their comrades and their given word Male solidarity was sung in their works by D London, EM Remarque, V Kaverin and other writers Not only in literature, but also in reality, there are many examples of how a friend’s shoulder at the right time saved a life, both literally and figuratively True comrades will never hand over a friend to his wife who did not come home, citing a bachelor party that lasted until the morning Each of them will assure the friend’s spouse that he drank with them in company until the morning An army friend will never tell the squad commander about being AWOL, he will share rations and stand next to him in a wall-to-wall fist fight on Maslenitsa Borrowing money and fixing a car are more examples of mutual assistance than male solidarity And it is most often associated with the unbreakable brotherhood and unity of the strong half of humanity in deep opposition to women True friends will never betray a friend by telling their spouse the cost of fishing gear and equipment Just like a new car, bought for my wife for a few pennies Well, why should she be nervous about finding out the real cost of the car? And these are not the only examples of male mutual assistance and unity If necessary, a comrade will always “take the fire upon himself” and boldly walk headlong into the cannonade of screams of a friend’s wife, who unexpectedly materialized in the morning on the threshold of his apartment Yes, he will say, the lovely nymph was with him, and not with her beloved So what if he’s lying naked in bed with her now? They let me warm up under the blanket Before this, the husband who had had too much sex spent the whole night hugging the toilet and sleeping on the cold tiled floor Frozen We remembered camping trips, our youth and decided to warm each other with our bodies as if in a sleeping bag The holiday of male solidarity is not just an excuse to drink on March 22 in the company of fellow unfortunates who have been pecked by their other halves, worn down by jealousy and endless claims Uniting and mutual assistance in the course of confrontation with the weak half of humanity is the law if you need to “get rid of” a comrade by protecting your missus from thunder and lightning “Alager com alager,” sang the heroes of the film “D’Artagnan and the Three Musketeers” In ordinary life, fortitude and a friendly shoulder are no less important than during battles That is why the Festival of Male Solidarity appeared on the calendar
