Who do you think is the most unique, or "non generic," middle aged white male character?

Kinda inspired by 7.

Well, I'd argue that Tolkien's men tend to have traits that would be very outside the stereotypical masculine ideal these days.

They are emotional, and in fact softness, kindness, compassion are valued traits in middle earth. Faramir is the ideal, not his brother who is a bit more of the stereotype. And one of the traits that makes it clear Aragorn is royalty is his healing abilities.

slightly off topic but I really liked the fact that Boromir was NEVER "haha, Dad likes me better!" he was always "cut him some slack, Dad, he's doing his best under difficult circumstances"

Yup. Honestly, I love Boromir. He's one of my favorite characters, both on screen and in the books.

Boromir's so human.

[philstar22]

Yup. He was tempted the way many of us would be. I love that the Ring didn't use evil desires to tempt him, it used his desires to protect Gondor.

Aaron Hotchner from Criminal Minds. By outward appearance, middle aged white male g-man, but he's easily one of the most sensitive, intuitive male characters I've seen in mainstream media, ever. The whole cast is excellently written in terms of characterization (the earlier seasons, at least) and work together really well as a team with Found Family elements. Hotch is a great example of this - a lot of traits people associate with alpha male including the physicality, confident leadership, etc. But at the same time, he's not afraid to be the team's emotional center, and they clearly look to him for that quality as well.

Hannibal Lecter (Hannibal), maybe.
