Why? Because it’s becoming more prevalent. When men start caring more about video games, porn, moisturizers, hipster beer, the shoes on their feet and the clothes on their back, they’re no longer men IMO.

IMO women wanted to mounted/loved by strong manly men who talk about chains saws and torque wrenches. So women don’t find this out until the lights go down or the car won’t start.

They're still men. I find men who define their sexuality by what they do or what they know as pretty pathetic, IMO.

I talk about torque wrenches (and *gasp* even own a few...that are housed in my bright pink toolbox ) and I can fix my own car, thankyouverymuch. I don't define a man based on how much he knows about cars...that's like saying if a woman can't cook a 5 course meal from scratch without help she is no longer a woman.

Interesting how you equate love to mounting. You're off by a long shot in my book.

You’re not being trolled.

If passive lame activities like video games and porn are pursuits less becoming of a man. IMO so is the relentless pursuit of becoming a hipster/metro sexual.

Besides I’ve noticed an overwhelming amount of d-bags wearing salmon shirts vs. a bog standard Carrhart shirt.

Wha? I'm not super huge on porn, but I like video games, and I have to use moisturizer on my hands because they get dry and crack. Oddly enough, I can still hold a burning cigarette against the callouses on my hands and barely feel a thing.

When I bust my hand open under the Jeep cause a stupid box wrench slips, I still stop the bleeding by rubbing caked up old engine oil from the bottom of the block in it.

Can I have my card back now?

Depends on the brand of wrench you were using, and what model of jeep.

Look dude, I hate hipsters with a burning passion, but just because some kid wears a lumberjack shirt, tight jeans and a mustache doesn't make him less of a "man." You have to define the terms first. What is a man? Who has authority to say who is and who isn't a man? Even the biological argument isn't watertight because so many people now are transgendered. How much of the difference between the sexes is socially and culturally influenced and how much of it is hardwired? It's not as simple as one's choices in clothing or beer.
