I am capable of holding the quote-unquote 'title' of leading man. Leading man just means people want to see you and assume that you can hold a film, carry a movie.

Men are like lions. We hunt.
I'm a whopping 5 foot 4 inches tall. I'm not going to get any taller.
I didn't work hard to sit down and not work.
