Rewards...

More than that...it was funny. Wow uptight. It was kind of an obvious joke guys, relax...

If i didn't know better i would say that you all being SO uptight about that might mean you have something to hide *nods at the closet*

:D
 
I was thinking the gay thing too...

'cause, come on...it's a bag.

But if you're hitting the gay thing from the angle of just because we like to shop for ****, well, then you're just plain wrong. I don't shop in my pink polo shirt, I shop in my underwear, with one hand scratching my nuts and the other hand killing bulls, while I use my beard to browse for leather jackets (which is true).
 
One of my real good friends is going through problems right now becuase of something like this. Sorry if I was an ass.
 
Well, in Derwydonn's defense I was sort of thinking the same thing. :p
I like my men to act like men dammit! Not pink shirt wearing metrosexual fashion queens, but hey, to each their own. :)

Does acting like men mean we have to wear dirty workboots and grungy t-shirts??

I personally prefer a more stylish, casual look; as opposed to a casual, casual (too casual) look.

*shrug* everyone has their own taste...
 
Well, it's all a matter of what a woman finds sexy. Personally, I prefer really masculine men. I guess it's a bit regional too. You would be hard pressed to find a big hard working man trotting through the mall enjoying shoe shopping like a woman - sort of an alien thought to me. "Oh, Bill, these shoes are just divine!" ;)

and yes, I like work boots on a man, and his hands should be rougher than mine. My husband wears work boots, comes home covered in oil, and makes 6 figures doing it, so yeah, I find that sexy as hell. He cleans up quite well and can actually wear a tie at times too (gasp)

As for the original post... those are kind of odd shoes, but that seemed to be your preference, so way to go on your reward.

what mall do you go to? there havent been bulls in my mall to kill since '95.
 
I dont do shopping.
As long as I have 1 suit for weddings, one for funerals and 2 nice shirts im fine.

My therory is that I wear crap clothes all the time, cos I just dont give a damn. Then if I go out I wear my nice jeans and a shirt. If I meet a girl I'll wear the other nice shirt on the 1st date.

Then the 2nd date will be a trip to the Mall. I give her a wad of money and she sorts me out with a new wardrobe.

sorted!

Girls love shopping and money - I love girls - I have money and need shopping done. Its like the circle of life or somthing.

I wear a shirt and tie to work, i come home pretty clean, unless i accidently write on myself with a pen or something. I make excellent money (not 6 figures, but its only a matter of time, i graduated from college last year). and i wouldn't say "I clean up nicely" because i'm usually pretty "clean" all the time.

don't get me wrong, i don't wear mesh shirts and girls jeans to "look nice". I'm pretty comfortable in a decent shirt/sweater/hoodie and a nice pair of jeans that are clean, (not covered in dirt or oil). If that makes me girly, then so be it...

haha well if we're going to have a discussion about what women find sexier then I have to say that a person who dress good have way more success in that aspect.

I have a good friend who was over at relatives in the states not long ago and he got a lot of attention from women walking up to him when they went out drinking. So his friends said "its just because your Swedish" - hmmm.. he's part Iranian so hes not exactly the typical blonde guy stereotype lol but guess what, he does dress nicely[u/]. Something it seems to bee a shortage of overseas.. and the women seem to like well dressed men there aswell :eek:

For me tho its more than everything about liking clothes and accessories, dont care a second about the brand but about the quality and design. Compare a cheap shirt with a more expensive one and quality difference is just enormous - why go buy shirt that look like a bag of **** after 1wash when good quality ones can be washed a hundred times while keeping its shape /color and looking good! Watches however is where my real interest lies.

ps. what's you definition of "masculine" then? for me its doing what you want and not giving a **** what people think, not being a sissy who goes around worriying about being seen as gay.
 
You're right Markus. Women don't know what they want, so you're better off just convincing them whatever it is you want them to want.

Junkfood, I was talking about shopping online. I've also got like a million bulls at my house that I like to kill whenever the mood strikes me.

...Which is like every other second.

I'm not a huge fan of malls because, as I stated earlier, I get uptight and sweaty, and that fact that pants and shirts are requirements makes me even more so.

This is so FUNNY!!

OK, Markus, you stepped right into that one! Not only did you know the label (and you claim to care about brands! uhh, sure...) of the bag, but you said you almost cried. AND the bag is a reddish hue, which is typically more feminine than masculine. You made a joke, the other dude made another joke, and now this thread has morphed into a gay thing! LOL

Thanks for the laugh!!

Here's the thing: don't give a **** about what other men do, how they dress, and what they think is manly. You reap what you sow, and there are perfect matches for men that are oily or grundgy or crisp or clean. Above all, take ANY man, put him in a sharp dressed suit, and he's alot more attractive than a pair of jeans and t-shirt. But none of those fancy clothes are gonna matter if you don't have the proper attitude to compliment the look. A jerk in a suit is still a jerk.

/end tangent

As for rewarding myself: I thought it would be great if I gotthose new Nike 360 running shoes, and get a great deal online on eBay. Well, I got some for $87 shipped, and boy! were they knock off, pirated, counterfeit pieces of crap! Got my money back, and I'm gonna wait til Xmas.

I love girls too......I hate shopping.
 
LOL i'm sorry i started all this... i just thought it was funny that he would cry over a purse.

er... bag

Don't be sorry. It's a light hearted "debate" and it's fun. :) Nobody's mad or anything like that (at least I don't think so).

RLewis - it sounds like you have the perfect plan going on. You basically set yourself up to be a hot chick's Ken doll - it's a win/win situation.

Just to clear up my particular point of view -
I like that my husband uses both brains and brawn to earn a living and actually breaks a sweat (keeps him in pretty good shape too). Then when he comes home all hot and sweaty and yummy, and.......(ok, focus), he cleans up and puts on nice clothes for going out to dinner/church/occasions/etc.

I guess most of the men I know spend their free time doing things that are more the stereotype of manly things - like hunting, fishing, fixing stuff, building stuff, all those types of things (hence the need for the pickup trucks)- and only shop out of necessity.
 
Ok ok... back on subject. We've established the fact that sara doesn't like my shoes and deschain likes manly men.

I actually got the 180's a few months back for the nike+ technology available. They're pretty cool, and its a nice way to track runs and progress. I personally like the moire's the best though...

how could you tell they were knock offs?
 
stop making **** up?


AHAHAHA! its a oxblood colored briefcase dumbass, very popular for men in the late 40's/early 50s, but yea 50's men were real pansies right?


aparantly you care a whole lot

How did that happen? I didn't originally post those things. I'm not even sure I quoted those things from someone else's post, although I'd have to check.

Anyway, just thought I'd clarify that.

Please don't get angry. I don't believe anyone was actually challenging the sexual preferences of anyone here, just playing around. :)

As for my own rewards? hmmmm....well....I guess I would have to actually stay on track long enough to earn one. When I ever do I'll let you know what I get.
