You could say I’ve been here for 20 years already, a lurker before I dared join and speak my thing.
Born and raised under the Military rule in my country, a macho latino culture, mostly and soaked in more sensitive european culture for a few years, it wasn’t until I joined that I learned all about the Man”s Card.

It has certainly changed significantly since I joined. I learned about Political Correctness earlier on and Unicorns, Wokeness, etc. Sensitivity…
In Cmdr. Lassard’s words, many, many, factors have been affected our dangling Johnsons for the past generation or so.

What do you remember being important for keeping your Man”s Card some years ago, nowadays and in the future?

Let”s pray that twenty years from now our holsters, belts, shoes and nails won’t be required to have matching colors Wink

I do remember when drinking these was an automatic Man Card revocation.
I think it still is TBH.

You won't have to worry about Zima anymore, since it was discontinued in 2008.

I've always disliked Man Card jokes. You want my Man Card? Come & take it. You might find yourself in the hospital or morgue attempting to confiscate it.

A lot of Man Card claims leave me shaking my damn head. Making a point to match your belt & shoes is some kind of faggoty metrosexual affectation? Is it any less manly than matching the parts on your AR build?

Habitually cleaning out dirt from under your fingernails is unmanly? OK then, guilty as charged. If you ever want to touch a beautiful woman w/ her consent, your hands better be clean.

Carrying around a baby & diaper bag in public makes you less of a man? Alrighty then, you sound like a great father. Roll Eyes

“I’ve always disliked man card jokes”

You said it yourself. They’re jokes.
Nobody is coming for your man card and you won’t have to kill anyone Francis.
I’ll probably have my man card revoked just for telling you this.

I think it is where you have to get an 87 inch TV and jack the truck up really high...

Oh, you said man card, not desperate for attention. My bad.

The man card was a dumb joke that should have died out as fast as fidget spinners did. But some took it to far and saw it as a tool to try to overcome some insecurity by overdoing the man card criteria.

0_0, if the man card trope is now a thing down there, please ignore it. And hope it goes away fast.

Of course, belts, holsters, shoes and watch straps need to match, at least co-ordinate.

Not sure if you’d match the leather in a bolo tie to the other leather or if it’s more about matching your shirt.

If my grandfather was still living, I would have asked him.

Ok, thanks for the update.

Apologies if my post rubbed someone the wrong way. Definitely not my intention, just slightly disconnected with the way of things.

Got no other references to the Man Card in my world that what i read at the board.

Apologies once again. Thought it would be funny, it is not.

PS:

By nails I didn’t mean manly dirt but nail polish. No clue what is going on but I notice a lot of painted nails out there.

Don't feel too bummed out O-O. I thought it was humorous and in light of the 'what's your pronoun' identity bullshit, a real man card might not be too far off. Razz

You could have left off the smiley face and the post still would have been appropriate.

At least my holsters match my mag carriers.

Around here a major fashion faux pas is wearing mismatched camo patterns, or a Carhartt jacket that isn't covered with grease and ripped to shreds.

I’m sure we are heading to some kind of system ties to your phone which indicates to whichever algorithm is in charge, your approved and registered gender etc

This book is great, will probably send wokesters to the “Nervous Hospital” just by title alone.

If written today it would be called a “Their guide to a Person’s Person.”

Zima may be gone, but White Claw lives. And yeah, I see a lot of "men" around here wearing colored nail polish.
