Its A Guy Thing
Even thou we all love or even need to express our Fem side we do live in a world that knows us as Male. And since we do live part of the time as our male selves there are things that we do that is considered a male thing. This here is a list of things that I likeand do that would fall into that area. some of these are serious and some (OK most ) that are for fun but they all have something in common they are part of me and for that reason they are here.
Pipe Smoking   I grew up in the 1950's and there was something that I notice from TV and the movies that the tought guys smoke Cigarettes, the rich and powerful smoke a Cigar but the men that were smart and knew what was best for everyone always smoke a pipe. Look in the movies the scientis who save the world or finds the cure for something seem to always have that Pipe in their mouth. On TV just about every dad from Beaver's to Dennis' to Father Knows Best all smoke a pipe. So it seem to me that pipe smoking was a sign of someone you should listen to. Now I am not saying that everyone should smoke but back in the 50's no one thought much about it or what it would do to you. During my teens I never took up smoking mostly because I did not think it was a good thing to do. So when I went to collage I ran into a woman who was not like anyone I known before. First of all she like me ( I never had much luck with the girls I guess because I did not act like the other boys) and I had my first real sexual experience with her. She was also Bi and that help me learn that there are many different people in the world  9She was the first person that I ever told about my need to be a woman but that another story ). But the other thing that she did for me was to introduce me to pipe smoking, you see she smoke a pipe and I found that interesting about her. I found it to be something that we both could do together and I enjoy it. To this day I still enjoy a good smoke every once in a while but now I do it wearing a nice skirt and a blouse.
TV Remote   To the modern man this is one of the most powerful tools that we have today. With it a man can control his environment without having to get out of his chair. the remote is like the scepter of thay man's castle, for that reason the man does not like to give up control of it to anyone. A man will "Channel Surf" through 100 chandles for over an hour look for something to watch and never stay on any one station for more then a few seconds and then do it all over again. In todays world they have remotes for just about everything such as VCR's CD's and DVD players, there are even remotes for things that you would not think needs one. There is nothing worse for a man then when he cannot find the remote in fact they now have remote's to help you find the remote. Takeing away a man's remote is taking away his power
The Barbecue   This is anothe place where a man feels like he is in control. You would be hard press to get a man to cook inside or even make a ham sandwich, but let him cook out side and it is a diferent thing. Somehow when a man is cooking outside he links himself to prehistoric man, to him there is a connection to them cooking a Macedon leg over an open fire and him cooking up those Ball Park Franks on a gas grill. Men cannot even deceided what barbecue is and just how it should be made, and of cause everyone thinks that how they do it is the right way and will be glad to tell you that it is. You know that outdoor cooking is a man's thing by the fact that there are so many things that a man can buy for the sole purpose of cooking some meat. There are outdoor grills that are bigger then the stoves that are in the house and with the outdoor sinks and refrigerators they will never have to go inside for anything.Just the accessories that they can get will drive you crazy, they even have the tools comming in there own carrying caseso now he looks like he is going to peform surgery. But that is not as bad as how a man acts with the next thing on my list. 
Tools   As anyone who has ever watch Tim Allen in Home Improvement would know that men just love there tools. They will buy them even if they do not have a need for it just to say that they have it just in case. Men will go to the home center and look at the tools like they were looking at artwork in the museum. They will aet up a peg bord on the wall with spaces for all of there tools and pity the person who does not put them back in the right place. Yhe man will go crazy if they see someone not using the tool in the right or if they do not know what a Philips head screwdriver is. They will keek there tools clean and read to to work on there most inportant possession
The Car   Why is it that a man who does not have the ability to hang a picture stright think that they can go ahead and tell someone what is wrong with their car. On Saturday's you can always find that one guy working on his car and his buddies standing around telling him what is wrong with the car. they always say that they can tell what is wrong with it by the sound that it makes but that same guy does not understand what there wife is talking about. Cleaning the car is just as inportant as fixing it,you will see men looking in the car care asild the sane way a woman does in the makeup dept. Men also name there cars and called it there baby,girls when was the last time they call you that.They go as far as to carry a picture of there car in the wallet and do not have one of the kids.Now this can only lead to the real guy sport.
NASCAR   You can talk about Baseball, Football or Basketball but the fans of NASCAR are the best (or the worse as you look at it) fanns in the world. Tell me what other sport do they show up on Wed. fo a rece on Sun.? Football might have tailgaters but in NASCAR they take it to a new level. They will live at the track for the week of the race in their mobile homes and some will even travel on to the next race like a sport version of the Dead Heads. The fans will not only know the stats of their favorite driver but also the stats on the cars, the tracks and even the sponsors. But you can see a change comming to the sport, when they first started racing back in the late 40's and the early 50's the only thing that was on the car was the number and the name of the driver. Now there is a fancy paint job and the logos for all the sponsors, and it is fun to hear the driver trying to get the names of all there sponcers in when they are interview at the end of the race. You know things are changing because of who in now sponcering the care, it used to be Beer and CarParts now it is Cell phones and Viagra. And as the sport get older I can just see the winner of the race pulling into the winners circle in his number 22 Ford and saying the he would like to thank his sponsors Preparation H and Depends for helping him get through the long race.
Now I am just having some fun here and I do sometimes see some of this in myself no matter how hard I try not to. I guess 50+ years of trying to act male some of it had to rub off.But I just wanted to add some fun here and weather or now I did is up to you . I hope to add some more things here in the future so come back. And if you have any ideasfor this page or just want to tell me off please E-mail me or if you see that I am on line IM me through Yahoo. But please take the time and Sign my Guest book I do want to hear from everyone.
