    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.

      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.

        If you like earth tone soaps and are particular about scents, I’ve learned that making your own soap is pretty easy. I made my first batch a year ago and haven’t looked back.

        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.

      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.

        It still can be. The fun dad with tactical gear will reveal his fun-ness quickly enough. If the baby’s binky is tactical black, but the multi-tool is Barbie™ pink, it might be a clue.

          Heh, very true. It just messes up the first impression which is where the clothing jokes have the best impact. Never as fun if people take time to get to know you before getting the joke your appearance made.

    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.

        According to my proctologist, we Americans are cruel to our butts with over-use of toilet paper.

        Never wipe but dab. Use a bidet. Start with a travel bidet, which is $5-$20, and you can fill them with warm water. Rinse liberally and dab, repeat until clean.

        Don’t worry about manliness. Being nice to your hemorrhoids is the adult thing to do.

        Dude, bidets and ass showers in combination with shaved butthole is a hygienic must for hairy folks.

        Dingleberry cultivation is no involuntary hobby anyone should have.
