So, fair play since we keep hijacking the girlie thread.

Guy stuff I am into: uh, football? Farts are funny..... I don’t know too much about cars.

Not really, my dad wouldn't let my sister get her driver's license until she could change a flat, and check/top off all the fluids under the hood.

I love those double edge razors!! But only with those excellent Wilkinson blades so I don't cut my legs so much.

I'll have to see if I can get these here. I've been using Astra Premiums. Those are supposed to be beginner friendly. I tried a couple of other brands but they tore my face up. That Premiums are also 100 for $10, which is great.

Hmm... I know how to change a tire but I've never changed the oil. Cross "knowing cars" off my man checklist.

Sports... bleh. Sports are meant to be played, not watched. Paying a bunch of guys to play a sport is like paying the next door neighbor's kid to rollerblade so you can watch.

Grilling out I have never seen the attraction of. It tastes better fried in a skillet on the stove and I don't have to go outside and stand in the heat/cold/whatever. The only thing that tastes better cooked outdoors is anything barbecued.

I'm no good at swinging an axe or running a chainsaw, so you'll have to split your own logs. I can use power tools but I lack any of a stereotypical man's fascination with them.

Let's see, what else? Politics, right, that's something men sit around and talk about a lot. I never have figured out why. All the talk I have heard about all the politics in the world, and it hasn't changed one single thing. It's just a way for old men to vent about things they get upset about.

I guess that leaves computers. I know computers. Why is that a man thing? Well I have never met a woman who was a major nerd. I mean I know they exist, but I've never met any. All the computer nerds I know are guys. Right, computer nerd stuff is a guy thing. There, I can prove I'm a guy. :D

Leave me alone, it's all I've got. Stop looking at me that way.

I can't believe I forgot to add grilling. I do prefer the taste of meat grilled rather than using a skillet. I have a grill pan I sometimes use, but it's not the same. I'm a noob at it, though. I usually do cuts of meat that don't need to be marinated or anything like that. I can get away with salt and pepper on a lot of the stuff I grill.

I was hesitant to mention nerdy stuff like computers. I guess more men are into that sort of stuff, but I don't see it as particularly a guy thing. Luckily, I am finding more women I know are into sci fi or video games. A couple of years ago, I sat and listened to a couple of ladies talking about how excited they were for episode VII. It was pretty awesome. Stuff like Doctor Who and Harry Potter help this? I know way more ladies into Doctor Who than guys.

And now you've got me wondering how well these babies would maneuver around one's kneecaps...
Is that trying for the upper lip? I can get it with this guy, but occasionally nick myself there. Alum block helps with the bleeding. :p

One time I was making a carpentry project. I cut the wooden pieces, used sandpaper, varnished some and painted the rest. I used wooden glue to stick them and create my project. I had to use measuring tape, worked outside with tools I had never used before. Thanks to my stepdad. At the end of it all, I felt like a total tomboy! I had completed a wooden project!
Ironically, what I built was a doll house. :LOL:

I'm not sure if the masculine wood butcher offsets the feminine jammies and romance novel (especially when chai tea is added in).

We may need to vote on the revocation of the man card here. :D

Do I get to vote? Or is it just for men? In that case I’ll have a swift, temporarily gender (or sex as some is advocating here) exchange to cast a vote... you know, a means to an end and all that lol.

Praise God for manly men (and brave women, too) who can get rid of spiders. I'm not one of them.
