    Only classic rock, country, and blues are manly? I didn’t know metal, rap, and military marches were for little girls

    They do the same exact thing in the pink aisle in the supermarket.

    By making everything more so called feminine, and now more so called masculine, companies realized they can charge a premium and people will fall for the packaging gimmick.

    That’s all I think it is.

    I do like the man card bottle opener though. Would be a fun thing to bring to parties and holiday gatherings.

    “A man’s music collection should consist out of classic rock and country. …… oh yeah and also blues. See we ain’t racist we added black music”

    Lol bet they mean Eric “non-whites should be deported” Clapton and not BB King.

      The whole tactical-style-for-not-tactical-thing makes me rage. Not because it exists, but because it’s been picked up by the wrong demographic.

      That sort of thing should belong to the realm of the ironic, and be worn by the person who has a bad joke to go with it.

      Tactical baby carrier should be for the fun dad who uses it to make jokes about how you otherwise might notice the baby, and not the fragile guy who needs a shield to defend his masculinity in the face of raising his children.

      It’s like so much of these things started as a gag, and then got picked up by people who aren’t in on the joke.

      Duke Cannon has some cringe to it, but they are surprisingly crunchy when it comes to the ingredients they use in things, including the aluminum-free deodorant that I like.

      That’s a very dumb name, but I really like the simple design and earth tone color of the bar itself.

      On the other hand I don’t think I’d like to smell like beer.

        Bought beer shampoo for my dad once as part of a joke gift. It did not smell like beer, but did not smell good either.

    I saw MAN CARD in the thumbnail and legitimately thought it said MAN CHILD and didn’t even question it.

    Can’t stand any of these masculinity targeted products. Also don’t flush any product down the toilet other than toilet paper. Those wipes clog sewers.

    Being a man is when you conform your freedom of choice to one of a few acceptable choices.

    Expressing yourself, showing who you really, standing up to peer pressure is for pussies, you wouldn’t want to risk people accidentally mistaking you with them sexually liberated folks by admitting you like electro-swing over country.

      Let’s not forget that they probably don’t listen to much non-commercialized country and when they do the highly left-wing, union supporting, feelings having message probably goes right over their heads. I mean it has to, they’d necessarily throw a fit if they knew what they were listening to.

      Real men are like a bison bull, hairy smelly and they roll around in dirt.

      The sad thing is that only bison cows are into that.

        rolling around in dirt would be an improvement, dirt is honestly fairly hygenic especially compared to enclosed sweaty skin where bacteria has a great time
