What qualities make up the "ideal" man? Let's look beyond the obvious stuff like being a professional blogger with a receding hairline and an arsenal well-stocked with empty beer bottles and endless fart jokes. That stuff is too easy. If we step off that pedestal and study the everyman, what jumps out as the real intangibles that quantify the ideal that is "ideal?"
If I were to go out on a limb, namely a limb with a mirror on it, I'd say that items like athletic prowess, a sense of humor, sex appeal, style, presence, and the ability to quote at least 5 DeNiro flicks would have to be considered.
GQ appears to agree. That is why, I'm guessing, they have created this video to share with you, the reader viewer. In it you will find the attributes they believe create said "ideal" man. You will also find a bit of language that is probably not safe for work. That would be the DeNiro part.
On that note, I give you the "ideal" man (NSFW-ish):
