Adult males*

I wouldn't try calling Legolas and/or Gimli a man

They're both men, but neither of them are Men.

Why? "Men" seems more apt and inclusive. Trans men can be rapists, too.

It's an elf and a dwarf. Not men.

Yep, yeah, I don't know how I missed that. Preeeeeetty embarrassing. Definitely the kind of thing that would keep me up at night if it had happened IRL.

Boromir was extremely honorable man, but who could not fight against the influence of the one ring. Don't do him dirty like that

He had one moment of weakness and then spent the rest of his life trying to make up for it

and then spent the rest of his life

You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.

It was just that one time and he said he was sorry.
