" we men ain't we ?...ain't we men"?

Question

considering the context of the time , what is the significance of this statement

Answer 1

Think of the question, are you a man or a mouse?  There's a bit of fear in this quote in relation to that question - we men, ain't we?

To be a man, you must move forward through your fear, this quote is the struggle between the fear of moving on and the fear of not being considered a man.

Answer 2

You haven't given the time context to consider. I doubt that it would have any bearing anyhow, as the statement seems to me to be self explanatory.

Answer 3

well i i'm a guy for sure..lol!! I think it means that fear changes who we ought to be, I maybe wrong, but that's my answer.

Answer 4

a male looking to his comrades  for confirmation and recognition  that they are righteous and deserving of the common regard men should hold for one another.

Answer 5

the first one means the person who is asking the question is not sure he's a man. the second means the man is showing his supremacy over some other creature.
