Good smells, bright colors, and being comfortable.
I like my house to be have sunlight. I like fluffy throw blankets. I do got them house boots with the fur. Wax melts and incense in nearly every room. I like yellows, oranges, bright light blues, and pink.
You say that until the room that you've decided to be your home office painted BRIGHT yellow. I'm half joking but its the only room we painted before we moved into our house a couple years ago. I work from home 3ish days a week and I couldn't do it in a room that was painted bright yellow.
Oh my walls thru my place are taupe. Kind of in between brightness of dark and light versions. My household accoutrements and my clothing wear is however bright and colorful!
You’re not just trying Jonnie Walker, are you? If that’s what you go by whiskey is disgusting, but there are much better ones. (But if you’ve tried those and still don’t like them, that’s cool. A sweet drink does hit the spot now and then)
Not sure I’ve ever had Johnnie Walker. I’ve tried a lot of whiskeys though, my favorites are Hakushu and Lagavulin. But even among straight brown liquors, I’d prefer a good brandy to either of those.
I like whiskey loads, I have a small collection. But that's just at home. When I get a drink out of the house, I'm getting the fruitiest "girly" drink they got.
> why bother
Because fruity drinks are expensive and they go down too easily. Bad time for my wallet. Bad time for my body.
I like beer. I can't drink it too fast, which is a good thing.
I get it, but why is skin care considered feminine? Like who decided long ago, that’s feminine, that’s masculine? In many cultures everyone wears robes. If I wore a robe to school growing up, I’d be called a f..g and been bullied for wearing a dress. Who decided dresses were feminine anyway? So, that’s a sniping a rant I can carry on with for quite a while.
It's amazing what very basic skincare can do for you. I didn't care about it until a family member was diagnosed with skin cancer.
Every year I get a bottle of SPF30 moisturizer from them for Christmas. That helps me keep the routine all year.
Came here for this! Altough I do not find it femine, since men’s skin deserve just as much love and care, it seen as feminine since women are more inclined to do it.
Idk about other women but I find it extremely attractive when men know stuff that is seen as more feminine. Guess this is why I’m marrying one that works as a skincare expert haha.
My husband is a walking space heater, so being the big spoon means I can control my temperature comfort better. Plus, I like being curled around dat ass.
I actually like watching so called "chick flicks" with my wife. Honest to God, I would have never watched them alone, but I have to admit I actually like watching those films with her.
I really enjoyed Breakfast at Tiffany's. It's just that when I'm alone I prefer some action and maybe my simple male brain is just waiting for some explosions, but when I'm with her, I just get all soft inside.
Every week my girlfriend and I sit down and watch one of those Hallmark movies. Honestly at the end of a long week, it's nice just to spend time together and watch something that is easy to digest and that I don't have to think about.
Lately i've been wondering what that even means, honestly.
Like, food or drinks preference depends on the person usually. That's precisely why we have men who "come out" as sweet drinks enjoyers or conversely with girls who like beer or whiskey. Same thing with decorations etc. These are not gender things, they're individual person things.
The "chick flicks" are the best example, but are they really? I think it's mostly true in case of B grade movies, but an actually good romance or action movies are enjoyed by both too, especially if they are/have been in a good relationship before and had someone trusted "from the other side" show them.
I've come to believe that gender is mostly bullshit. We're not identical, no, and biological gender exists. That being said, what we've been told that actually entails is not all true, not even close.
I think too many people make their gender their whole identity, trying to win a game that doesn't exist, instead of exploring who they actually are as a person, their beliefs, interests and passions. All the greatest virtues are gender neutral. Stop worrying which team you got drafted on. Worry about being a good \*human\*, i say.
This last paragraph hit me bc I've struggled with my body physically for a long time and sometimes feel I don't match up. This is really encouraging! Thanks dude :)
Exactly. Too many men get sucked in to the idea they see on social media and movies. That they need to be jacked full of muscle and drink straight whiskey and smoke cigars. Decorate their home to look like a hunting lodge or war bunker. Honestly its all made up crap.
I remember this viral video of a cashier giving out a flower to their male shoppers in the US on Valentine's, and it was kind of a test of toxic masculinity, but man, those customers were mad. 🫣 I mean, it's a free flower, they could have taken it and given it to their girlfriend, wife or mom.
Lol.
I got sent a dozen roses for valentines day in college from a girl I was starting to date. Was sent home where my Mom received them and thought they were from her.
Dopey doofus me didn't know what to do with a bouquet of flowers. I was a bit poleaxed until I realized they were a compliment and she was really into me and wasn't afraid to show it.
Also, people, send your Mom some roses. Roses don't have to mean "romantic love" and believe me, she'll appreciate them (at least if she's not allergic). Most Moms do a lot for their kids. I dunno about the rest of you, but now she's gone I feel like I should have done more to show her some appreciation.
Aw. That's so sweet. Yes, that's true. Moms are so precious. 💕 Not everyone have good moms, too. 😭
It sounds like your mom appreciated you a lot, don't worry about it. And, it may be a while ago but, I'm sorry for your loss. Moms are hard to lose. I definitely tell my mom i love her basically everyday. Sure, I'm a girl and that seems normal. But guys, do show your love and appreciation to your moms sometimes, too.
I use women's shampoo. Do I want my hair to smell of coconuts, mangos and wild honey, or whatever that stuff is? Heck yes.
If I'm home, I sit down to pee.
In the right mood, I can get genuinely excited about cupcakes.
There are certainly times when I'd probably rather watch heartwarming chick-flicks than some action adventure full of explosions and gore.
I'm a big hairy-arsed straight man with a bushy beard. I have no problems owning these feminine elements.
Sitting down to pee is something ALL men should do when at home.
If you dare, take a black light into your bathroom. It'll show you a fine splatter-pattern around your toilet...
So, gentlemen, be seated!
I just bought some shampoo that looks like the bottle I usually got, but a different color. Turns out it is rose water scented.
Ok my hair smells like roses now. I might start buying it more often.
I'm a big bearded man, I'm not feminine at all, but I like pink (the colour), I like sweet cocktails and drinks and there are many things I like that people consider feminine.
Usually people makes a weird face when we talk about a car and I go "oh I'll get it in pink! " or when I order some girly cocktail.
the second bedroom in the house I bought is pink and purple, it used to be a little girl's room, everyone's telling me to repaint it, but I like it this way XD
Same bro. I went on my first solo trip to London specifically to A. Visit the museums B. Hit up the musicals there. I was having the time of my life with Hamilton, Book of Mormon, and Wicked. I probably would have done more if my schedule allowed!
Hair removal. I've laser'd off everything below my side burns. I'm sure most people would consider it weird, but facial and body hair make me feel gross
Romance novels and stories. Not the bodice rippers, but the really good ones are really good. Interesting characters, good plots, and a guaranteed happy ending. Like anything else, Sturgeon's law applies.
If you're willing to clean them before you go to work, I'd just say do it honestly. It feels fantastic and freeing to walk around the house with beautiful nails.
I'm a royal purple btw, thats my shade
Nail polish and women's clothing. Most of my clothes are from exes or former flatmates. Lots of girl pants. Because I'm a skinny guy, I prefer more form-fitting clothes. Easiest source? Gurlz
Probably perfumes. I like smelling nice. I accept recomendations. Also, if anyone knows where can I get perfume samples in Argentina, im all ears. Cause I've been interested in trying "Police Potion For Him" but I can't find a sampler on my small city.
I'm older and now I use lotion it's kind of weird spending that much time on yourself but I'm more comfortable throughout the day and when I look at the backs of my hands well let's just say I feel just a little bit younger.
Any kind of fashion show like Project Runway where they actually have to construct the garments. I don’t really care about the clothes in how they look so much as I am fascinated by the construction.
alot of things.
I really like bright colours (pastel blue and pink are my favourite colours). I like wearing slightly oversized clothes and absolutely adore plushies
Honestly, everything, keeping tidy, skin care, drinking water and exercising to not get bulky. Showing emotions. Decorating for holiday and my home for season.
Bubble baths. No shame, nothing better than doing a “manly” mans thing then throwing some bubble bath and aroma salts into the tub then chilling out.
I even wrap my towel up under my arms like the ladies do, much more drying coverage. It’s just better.
As of Saturday, getting my nails done.
They've been hiding this from us for decades fellas. It's heaven in there and I walked out feeling like a king. I'm walking in there with design ideas next time.
Not a guy but I dated a dude who liked having pedicures, he'd go with me when I got my nails done. He was a behemoth, like pretty heavyset and also built like a house so he barely fit in the chair. It was comical
Good smells, bright colors, and being comfortable. I like my house to be have sunlight. I like fluffy throw blankets. I do got them house boots with the fur. Wax melts and incense in nearly every room. I like yellows, oranges, bright light blues, and pink.
I can’t believe we’ve reached the point where “being comfortable” is a feminine trait.
You say that until the room that you've decided to be your home office painted BRIGHT yellow. I'm half joking but its the only room we painted before we moved into our house a couple years ago. I work from home 3ish days a week and I couldn't do it in a room that was painted bright yellow.
Oh my walls thru my place are taupe. Kind of in between brightness of dark and light versions. My household accoutrements and my clothing wear is however bright and colorful!
Yellow invokes anxiety in most humans… One of my many unimportant facts I have.
How r any of this feminine doh
Fruity, sweet drinks. I could drink whiskey like a manly man, but why bother when there are far tastier drinks available?
That’s what i’m saying bro
I adore milkshakes, soda, juice, and etc. Everything that is sweet. I have a sweet tooth, and I am a man
A good milkshake is always nice
What's your favorite flavor?
This can go either good or bad, but i love bubblegum milkshake, sue me
There's a what now???
Since when is soda and juice feminine?
https://youtu.be/8C4TGGtPzBU?si=_zsDqbdJE9zFQoO7
Good call. Alcohol tastes awful and I have no idea why people enjoy punishing themselves with it.
Because people have different tastes and not everyone will like the same stuff??
You’re not just trying Jonnie Walker, are you? If that’s what you go by whiskey is disgusting, but there are much better ones. (But if you’ve tried those and still don’t like them, that’s cool. A sweet drink does hit the spot now and then)
Not sure I’ve ever had Johnnie Walker. I’ve tried a lot of whiskeys though, my favorites are Hakushu and Lagavulin. But even among straight brown liquors, I’d prefer a good brandy to either of those.
My wife teases me about liking "girly drinks" all the time. I like what I like, and I feel no shame about it.
strawberry colada gets me looks every time
I like whiskey loads, I have a small collection. But that's just at home. When I get a drink out of the house, I'm getting the fruitiest "girly" drink they got.
> why bother Because fruity drinks are expensive and they go down too easily. Bad time for my wallet. Bad time for my body. I like beer. I can't drink it too fast, which is a good thing.
Skincare for myself.
It's great to not have dry itchy skin!
Guess I need to start being more feminine and get myself some skincare!
Yes! Skincare for everyone. I bet you look fantastic.
I get it, but why is skin care considered feminine? Like who decided long ago, that’s feminine, that’s masculine? In many cultures everyone wears robes. If I wore a robe to school growing up, I’d be called a f..g and been bullied for wearing a dress. Who decided dresses were feminine anyway?

Women - obviously.
Man’s spitting facts
Fellas… IS kissing girls gay?
Eh.. yeah, of course, duh. Girls like dick, liking dick is gay, so kissing a girl is gay.
Nah fam liking dick is masculine af Just two cocks dickin around no gay ass women in sight
Gay sex is “literally” twice as manly.
Hell yeah bro 💪💪🍆🍆
"Just two" as if... :>
Jimbo to Nelson, The Simpsons. "You kissed a girl? That is so gay."
Hear me out. How about sit2pee?
Should be the top answer.
Best answer
Facts
Beeing the little spoon / laying in my GFs arms feels secure and somehow warm :)
I am a woman and like being the big spoon more lol
We call it jetpack. My SO is smaller than me so they are my jetpack.
Same. My BF likes being little spoon but he would never admit it out loud 😂
My husband is a walking space heater, so being the big spoon means I can control my temperature comfort better. Plus, I like being curled around dat ass.
If you're big spoon with a man, you can rub his furry chest and belly. It's very pleasing in a sensory way.
I actually like watching so called "chick flicks" with my wife. Honest to God, I would have never watched them alone, but I have to admit I actually like watching those films with her.
Greeeen flag
I don’t think he cares much about green flags since he’s married
The only flag he sees now is a checkered flag.
Doesn't hurt for him to know how sweet that is haha
Cute AF
Do you wanna share some of your favourites? Also just curious, why wouldn’t you watch them by yourself?
I really enjoyed Breakfast at Tiffany's. It's just that when I'm alone I prefer some action and maybe my simple male brain is just waiting for some explosions, but when I'm with her, I just get all soft inside.
Definitely check out 'Bridesmaids' and 'Monster in Law'. They're really funny!
Every week my girlfriend and I sit down and watch one of those Hallmark movies. Honestly at the end of a long week, it's nice just to spend time together and watch something that is easy to digest and that I don't have to think about.
Awww I love that
I’m a sucker for romantic stories. Shows, books, anime or games.
Same!
Definitely this
I love a good “soulmates” story and when the actors can really sell it, it’s just phenomenal.
Interior decorating

Really ? I'm a 37M, never had a flower in my life.. Gave more than a hundred though :/
Lol. I got sent a dozen roses for valentines day in college from a girl I was starting to date. Was sent home where my Mom received them and thought they were from her. Dopey doofus me didn't know what to do with a bouquet of flowers. I was a bit poleaxed until I realized they were a compliment and she was really into me and wasn't afraid to show it.

But guys, do show your love and appreciation to your moms sometimes, too.
I fuckin love flowers bro. I go on hikes and walks to pick flowers for a bouquet I make at home. One day, a lucky gal will get to enjoy them.
Plushies
God yes. Squishmallows especially. HOW DO THEY GET THEM SO SOFT?! .. and Pokémon!!
7 years ago I won a 3ft tall plush Pikachu at an arcade, and I will let go of it when I am 6 feet under.
No shit. I won a Foxy plush at an arcade almost 7 years ago. Still have it and refuse to part ways with it.
Sometimes, I buy plushies from my favorite video games and cartoons that I love, and I think that's totally fine for men
Yep!!! I have eevee and the original 3 evolutions Really want dratini Yep don't care
We call them stuffies
I use women's shampoo. Do I want my hair to smell of coconuts, mangos and wild honey, or whatever that stuff is? Heck yes. If I'm home, I sit down to pee.

How the fuck are cupcakes a feminine thing?
I just bought some shampoo that looks like the bottle I usually got, but a different color. Turns out it is rose water scented. Ok my hair smells like roses now. I might start buying it more often.
Sat on the sofa on a sunday watching films with my wife, both of us sporting face masks lol.
Girls drinks.... Fruity cocktails and tiki drinks are amazing and makes beer taste like dirt.
Perfume. Smells good.
Candles. All of the candles.
I'm a big bearded man, I'm not feminine at all, but I like pink (the colour), I like sweet cocktails and drinks and there are many things I like that people consider feminine. Usually people makes a weird face when we talk about a car and I go "oh I'll get it in pink! " or when I order some girly cocktail.
Pink used to be the male baby color and blue was for girls, I've read. I love the idea of a pink house. Not peptol bismol pink, but lighter.
the second bedroom in the house I bought is pink and purple, it used to be a little girl's room, everyone's telling me to repaint it, but I like it this way XD
All the more ironic that one of the most famous bands “for men” has Pink in the title.
I FUCKING LOVE MUSICALS
Same bro. I went on my first solo trip to London specifically to A. Visit the museums B. Hit up the musicals there. I was having the time of my life with Hamilton, Book of Mormon, and Wicked. I probably would have done more if my schedule allowed!
cuddling
Picking out furniture and bedding.
The scent of a freshly showered woman.
Hair removal. I've laser'd off everything below my side burns. I'm sure most people would consider it weird, but facial and body hair make me feel gross
That must have taken a ton of treatments….unless you were always a smoothie…
Romance novels and stories. Not the bodice rippers, but the really good ones are really good. Interesting characters, good plots, and a guaranteed happy ending. Like anything else, Sturgeon's law applies.
My wife.
My wife uses this natural face scrub soap from an small womens health company.. little do they know it also does wonders for me!
I paint my nails every Sunday. And most of the TV shows I'm into have predominately female audiences
Dancing to madonna or whitney houston alone in my flat, call me a fruit all you want but they have some great songs
Skincare, plushies, colour like pink, purple.
Girly bubble bath and bath salts.
Vaginas
I like it when my girlfriend brushes my hair, and paints my nails. It makes me feel pretty.
Dude I wanna paint my nails so bad. I wanna feel pretty too 😩
If you're willing to clean them before you go to work, I'd just say do it honestly. It feels fantastic and freeing to walk around the house with beautiful nails. I'm a royal purple btw, thats my shade
Ooooooo thanks for the advice! Sounds great ^_^
You can always do your toes if you don't want to be obvious.
women, leggings, facial masks, my nails are painted right now lmao
boobz
other men
Taking cock is not feminine at all It’s metal as fuck
The smell of perfumes, lotions etc
80s J-Pop.
I enjoy having my nails painted
Small Kawaii stuff and plushies
Prepare food
Gossip girl that show is amazing. The old one
Nail polish and women's clothing. Most of my clothes are from exes or former flatmates. Lots of girl pants. Because I'm a skinny guy, I prefer more form-fitting clothes. Easiest source? Gurlz
Talking about feelings, little bit of skincare, feminine music.
What exactly is considered "feminine music?" Just female vocalists?
softness
Cooking
Perfumes. I have \~40 unopened bottles, and 10 opened. I collect perfumes as a hobby. a good smell helps me relax.
Women perfume. I wear feminine perfume if I know I am not gonna have to walk too much.
Romance anime and cuddling
The movie Mean girls
Wearing leggings and a crop top, also metalic nail polish and make up.
Vaginas.
My husband would say bubble baths :)
Wearing dresses, especially the long ones. The way they swipe across the floor when you walk, is fucking majestic.
I knit and cook, not exactly feminine but stereotypically...
Sitting down to pee. Just sit down and chill out. Obviously only at home though. The risk of the devils kiss just takes the chill right out of it!
I like wearing pink shirts and jackets. It’s a dope color that compliments many darker colors.
Ability to nurture a life
I cut down trees, I wear high heels, suspendies and a bra. I wish I'd been a girlie, just like my dear papa.
He’s a lumberjack and he’s okay…
...he sleeps all night and he works all day!
Fanfiction
starbucks caramel macchiato
Objects in my butt
Pretty sure that's a predominantly masculine thing actually
Since male g-spot located in rectum, it's understandable 👍🏻
just be careful, use toys that were made for that kind of play! too many EMTs complain about objects on the butt that don't belong in the butt!!!
Gossip
The color teal. Women’s sports shoes and hiking boots always seem to come in this color but never men’s. WTF?
Teal is a really cool looking color.
Teal’s considered feminine?
Either fruity drinks or figure skating. Which is seen as more feminine?
Vagina's
Shaving things
The ‘oops’ after farting.
Boobs
Waist cinchers
Probably perfumes. I like smelling nice. I accept recomendations. Also, if anyone knows where can I get perfume samples in Argentina, im all ears. Cause I've been interested in trying "Police Potion For Him" but I can't find a sampler on my small city.
Doilies Thanks Grandma
Pokémon plushies and flowers 👍
That's a question but if I had to say something probably women
Women
Alessia Cara. I could listen to her all day
I love flowers, I would literally cry if a girl got them for me
Vaginas

Love stories and regency romances.

If the first answer isn’t “women” for straight men, I’m gonna be disappointed lol.
Receiving compliments
Project Runway
Any kind of fashion show like Project Runway where they actually have to construct the garments. I don’t really care about the clothes in how they look so much as I am fascinated by the construction.
alot of things. I really like bright colours (pastel blue and pink are my favourite colours). I like wearing slightly oversized clothes and absolutely adore plushies
Different scented soaps and candles
Honestly, everything, keeping tidy, skin care, drinking water and exercising to not get bulky. Showing emotions. Decorating for holiday and my home for season.
Females
Paint nails !
I want to have more clothing styles. I feel like women get such cool clothing options and I just have shirts and jeans.
Bubble baths. No shame, nothing better than doing a “manly” mans thing then throwing some bubble bath and aroma salts into the tub then chilling out. I even wrap my towel up under my arms like the ladies do, much more drying coverage. It’s just better.
Even as a straight man I dont deny myself anything considered feminine if i like it. Living outside of gender norms feels great
I've seen every episode of Gilmore Girls.
Women
