A few more of these posts will redeem the "women" posts.. bigsmile laugh


I have no need for redemption, just thought it would be funny, and I noticed something else about guys from posting it.

Nobody has replied to this thread saying "I drink apple martinis and I don't consider myself a sissy",, ,, just saying.

Get out your apple (vodka) martinis and throw on your dance clothes, it's time to go out and chase some tail, have some fun, get lit and throw caution to the wind trying to pick up some gold digger at the club and trick her in to going home with you, right?

Waste of time.

What happened to the rough and rugged men of the past, who played cards and drank whiskey and smoked and chewed and shot guns and worked for a living? Nowadays I don't know who's more "girly", the women that I meet or the men that they go after.

You'll pack yourself into a gym 5 days a week for a 2 hour workout but you refuse to do any job that involves actual work. "I'm too smart to be a construction worker," or is it "I'm too lazy?"

I have a bunch of peers who got laid off 2 months ago (1 girl and about 10 guys, isn't life fair?) and NONE of them have found another job yet. Don't know about everyone, but my butt would be doing something other than sitting around waiting for another engineering position to fall in my lap.

Where's the woodworking and beer drinking gone? Why do men try so hard to keep their hair neat and their fingernails clean nowadays? Where are the real men?

Why do I care???? I don't really:laughing:


I work in the film biz as a special effects technician. And THAT will often mean that I'll have to work with fire, as well as high-power explosives on a quasi-regular basis. Some of the shows I've provided my services for are "The Unit", "The Agency", "The Drew Carey Show", "Internal Affairs", as well as various religious-themed productions as "End Of The Spear".

As such, I often have to shove around equipment and materials that often weigh as much as I do, if not more. I often have to put in eighteen hour days in the LEAST. I've often come home a complete mess, either dirty as hell or looking like a mud monster.

In short, I'm hardly what you'd call a "girly" man. Not in the least. And I'm sure there are plenty of other fellas out there who could say the same thing.

I don't really know how manly I am, I'm not too much on the self embellishing, but I guess I did cut down a tree recently, and been chopping it up and burning when I'm onshore, and I do work on an oilrig. So I guess I'm close, lol.

Are those valid criteria to base an assessment of whether someome is a "real man" or not?

Maybe they are, to some.

Personally, other than working for a living, I don't find any of those things interesting or fulfilling at all. I haven't touched alcohol since I was 22, I never will again, and I prefer not to deal with people who do.

So that disqualifies me from manhood? OK. If you say so.


Where's the woodworking and beer drinking gone?


I have to admit, I'm really puzzled as to this apparent connection between drinking and manhood.


Why do men try so hard to keep their hair neat and their fingernails clean nowadays? Where are the real men?


Sleeping it off in an alley? Dead in a ditch after a car wreck? I don't know.

Ah, an artist, now that is what the world really needs more of, if you check out my profile there's a plug in there for my webpage, all of my stuff is sketches and webcomics (at least what's posted on the site).

In the midst of everything else I do I also like to get a cold one and sit right there in a bar with my sketchbook. Screws everybody up and throws them off. laugh

Now that I actually come to think about it, I guess I do kinda like my life. It ain't so bad. Long as I can smoke and drink and burn stuff I got no problems...
