You forgot a big one: acting gay with each other.

Hey! I’m a girl and I LOVE ribs and chicken wings, too!

And also, with #3… do guys actually love skidmarks, or is it that they are just not aware how gross they are?

Otherwise, I agree most with #5 and #25.

I also love: 6, 14, 19, 22, 27
and I don’t think those are particularly “guy things.”

Well yes, definitely some girls like wings and ribs, but DUDES LOVVVVVVVEEEEEE THEM so much more.

Oh my gosh… Number 13!!! Every single guy I’ve ever met LOVES weapons… my roommate’s fiance visited her while we were in Spain, and I took him out shopping while she was in class, and all he wanted to do was look at butterfly knives and guns. Wtf? We’re in SPAIN!!

Oh, and my bf is more interested in locking up his gun than his laptop while we’re away for Christmas break. Again, wtf??

I’m totally guilty of #s. 2, 18, 22, 25, and 28.  #17 boggles my mind, though.

I’ve read a few articles and talked to a bunch of guy friends and the consensus seems to be that they like to look at fake boobs, but touching them sucks. I’ve never felt a fake boob, but they say you can tell they’re unnatural, and it usually takes them out of the moment

i don’t know if guys love skid marks, it’s just that they have them…or so I hear…thankfully it seems I’ve been with guys evolved enough to not have them.

...and I happen to think #17 is a nice time out of sorts. gives me time to read magazines.

I’ll go along with everything but #27.  And #5 - fun to admire but in reality…not something I look for

@Kiki T I personally enjoy #17 as well, on occasion. But ALL DUDES take long craps. All of them.

Okay, I like ribs, I even had them for lunch today. But half of the items on this list are are just stupid. Paris Hilton? Who cares. I don’t. Jean-Claude Van Damme? So 80s.
Nascar is only cool for the accidents. Car Shows are boring. (Okay I’ll admit it my thing is airplanes not cars.)But come on this list reads like an episode from Beavis and Butthead. Yes, I have seen AC/DC in concert. Three times.

@HereComes
I definitely prefer real, fake dont interest me in the least, looking at our touching. I want a women and what she came with originally =)

I take these lists in jest now because I know they are working off of a stereotypical view of men so I try not to take offense. I have to say…wow…what a shame=). Not that I am knocking you Amelia, simply love your posts but this article is laughable so Im hoping thats the point =)

I think it’s assumed that women will like some of the things on this list, just like some guys will like stuff from our list. It would be boring if every guy and every girl liked and disliked the same things!

Herecomesthesun; Fake boobs are weird. My friend had implants and they look amazing but they feel like bags of sand with skin on.

22, 25 and 29 are all my sometimes guitly, sometimes necessary pleasures. But what is it with men and watches?!

I agree anchor licious, the only thing I can remotely agree with on this list is ac/dc. They are a good band in my opinion, the others though sound tailored for a 4 yr old and NO not all us men are children. =)

As a gay man I will have 6, 14, 15 and well… 25. Those are hot. But I’ll leave 5, 9, 16 and especially 3 to my dear straight colleagues. *hoots*

Fake boobs? No thanks. Gimme an A, gimme a B…gimme, oh hell, anything more is wasted on me. And as for #17; that’s how we get peace and quiet. Duh.

All the rest of them are a no-go for me, except AC/DC.

Almost none of those match up to me. (a guy)

I like video games. I’ll listen to AC/DC every once in a while and well fart jokes can be funny, honestly. I know it’s super weird but me and my girlfriend have made a game out of farting in front of each other. But I digress…

This sounds like certain guys I know but not all guys…

you forgot “their boys.” 

i suggested to a male friend once that to be a responsible pet owner he should neuter his male dog, (who was unusually randy and impregnated a neighbor’s poodle…unknown if it was consensual).  you would have thought i’d suggested he shoot himself out of a cannon or marry his mother or marry his mother while being shot out of a cannon…naked.  men are very attached to their little “friends”...even when it’s their dogs wearing them.  i daresay, they may be their very favorite things….

Just an FYI for everyone:

Skidmarks from spinning tires, burnouts, etc.  Not underwear stains.  Ick.

this list is WAYYY off for me, but that’s probably a good thing.

7,9,13,14,,17,18,22,24,27, and 29 make sense.

But I despise implants, NASCAR, WWE, Paris Hilton, I don’t watch stallone or JCVD movies, i don’t play videogames, i’d rather NOT mow the lawn, don’t play slots, AC/DC is irrelevant.

most of this list seems ver “high school male.”

Then again I can think of more than a few guys my age that love the stuff I despise.

but ninja warrior is fun if nothing else is on.

i must be a rarity in the world of females then… because honestly i find many more [most actually]of these things more appealing than i do those on the list, supposedly, appealing to my own gender. for one, i love videogames, my username actually happens to be my gamer tag. =P
