Nah, I disagree with the part I bolded A certain (small) level of aggressiveness can be helpful, but trying to purposely dominate a conversation will make you look like an idiot. Not only will people not include you in future convos, they'll go running the other way when they see you coming
Now looking people square in the eyes...which shows confidence...that's something I'll agree with ya on, Morph
I guess we run/work in different camps. I can assure you high powered white males are very aggressive intellectually. If you don't aggressively make your points you will not be heard.

I suppose your statement

you need to speak up loud, be aggressive and assertive
sounded to me like being obnoxious
There's a difference between being aggressive and assertive and being an obnoxious buffoon.

The differences around the world are amazing, if you go pull that on people in Africa they don't like that %%%T at all. They think the length of time Americans gaze at each other is arrogant and unfriendly.
Ha ha, yea I know about that... To be honest though, when guys come up to me and be like; "did you see the game!" I'm like, "F%%%K football, them dudes don't pay my bills!"....
Seriously, I think it's border line psychotic that guys spend so much time idolizing other guys who don't do $$$$T for them and would proly bang their girls/wives given the slightest chance.
Same here! The boss's kid is a big Jocko Johnson and was a star in high school. When it comes to being a man he doesn't know his a** from his elbow! When I have to crawl up on a 6/12 pitch roof in the middle of winter when it is covered with snow it is like pulling teeth to even get him to hold the freaking ladder for me. "I'm not going up there dude"! Wahhhhh.....wahhhhh!!!! Look out and just hold the ladder then! Geez!!!
