What do men want

I don't know what guys would even want for Christmas. Girls are easy, just throw them a bath bomb or some perfume, but guys? It's a mystery. Please help, or I will assume I have to buy power drills and raw steak.

            Steroids definitely, a fleshlight, a gift card for a brothel (there's a novelty gift XD) and maybe a cock ring.

            That's what doesnormalmatter's letter to Santa says XD

Jesus christ man let me make my comments however damn long I want and don't be such a hypocrite like that uggggg it grinds my gears sooo bad!

    Hahahahaha! Steak as a gift... I'm a guy, I love steak and barbecues, but I would be very weirded out if someone just gave me a steak as a present. Just put a raw, slightly bloody, floppy steak in my hand.
    It would definitely be a gift I remember XD

    Also a warning when it comes to power tools. Know what tools your man needs, don't get him a power drill if he already has 2 of 'em.

    Here are more gift options: Good bottle of alcohol (it can be anything), cool T-shirt of something he likes (sports team, car make, meme...), videogames, good aftershave, a book, or even a scale model of something (cars, planes, boats, robots, whatever), fishing lures (if he likes fishing), or anything else he likes.

    Or just ask him. I hate picking gifts, so I just ask people what they want and go buy it for them. The only time I spend brainstorming on gifts is for Valentines day and my girlfriend's birthday, cause she loves sappy gift surprises.

    Many things depending on what one likes.

    If I like sports, I'd want something to help me practice, like sport shoes or sportswear, or dumbbells etc.

    If I like Batman, anything Batman related from a shirt to a cup is something I will appreciate.

    If it's your boyfriend, a nice day with you in a special place (amusement park, beach, jacuzzi, theatre etc).

    My favorite meal would be great too.

    An item I wanted for a long time but never bought for some reason.

    There's a lot of things a man would like depending on his personality.

    Please ask me if you have more questions or want more suggestions.

          Of course not. But because men like it in general, it is something for the OP and for many women to seriously consider.

            Yes, but why tell me specifically. I would never be intimate with anyone outside of a loving, committed, monogamous, longterm relationship. Also I don't just randomly cook for anyone.

            For example I would much rather cook a steak, and give it to my neighbor's Golden Retriever than to just some random guy.

            • Bazinga

              Well, if you re-read the post, the OP is looking for a Christmas present for guys. If she is like you, she probably does not want to give anyone of the male gender, other than her Dad, anything at all. If she wants a more personal present, I am suggesting a steak dinner. If she is enamored with the guy, it goes without saying, that hot monkey love is on the agenda.

              My point is that firstly, guys are likely to enjoy experiences more than concrete things. And secondly, that finding the degree of personalness of any gift can be tricky. Some women are good at making hot monkey love very personal. Others are not. For this reason, I offered an open ended idea for general discussion. Your suggestion of cooking a steak for the Golden Retriever next door is actually kind of cute. The OP's male friend just might be an animal lover.

  • Boojum

    I'm a guy and a terrible person to buy gifts for, since it's been a very long time since there was ever anything I desperately wanted. I mean, I'd like a forty foot yacht tied up to a private jetty just outside our front door, a private jet and crew on-call 24/7 and a bigger house with gardening and housekeeping staff included and that kind of stuff, but there's nothing I really want that's within the available budget.

    Some people have this idea that if they care about someone and know them really well, they should be able to come up with a gift that the recipient immediately recognises as the one thing that's been missing from their life, and now that they have it, they can die content in the knowledge they've had a beautiful life. But some people are just a pain in the backside to buy presents for.

    This is why gift cards were invented. Many people think they're cheating, but they're a hell of a lot better than a pair of socks or yet another power drill (that probably won't be the one they would have bought for themselves in any case).

      I like gift cards as well. People never know what to buy me. And it's like if you insist on buying something for me against my many protests just get me a gift card. That way you can be certain I'll get something I want and appreaciate. Really I hate gift exchanging all around

      Comment Hidden ( show )
    • SwickDinging

      This is great advice. I don't know why people are so down on gift cards as presents. I love to receive gift cards for my favourite shops. It's still thoughtful because you have to think about which shop the person would like to go to. If I want new clothes, for example, I would much rather be given a gift card to go and choose things myself and try them on, than be given some clothes that may or may not be to my liking, and that may or may not fit me well.

      In buying me a gift card for a shop which I really like, you have bought me an afternoon of "me time" where I get to choose some nice things for myself. It's an experience.

              And you don't know if she's buying something for a relative and even if she ever had sex.

        Special car tools are stupidly expensive. A Mercedes interior trim removal tool set (12 pieces) costs like 40 Euro.

        Good toolbox (200-250 pieces): 250-400 Euro and that's for the affordable ones... Luckily I got mine at a massive discount for 100 bucks XD

        Tools are ridiculously overpriced. I get professional, super durable ones you need if you own a business, but surely for the average DIY guy it shouldn't be that expensive.
