I just buy my dad a tie in a flamboyant color. That way he's forced to go to work in bright magenta or orchid.
Have fun with your gift.

BJ's always demanding I bring him a "horn of ale" so he's getting a drinking horn.
Socks
Tie
Wallet
Watch
Are all insanely lame and generic gifts to get a man imo. I would only get a guy a watch if I could afford a really amazing one and if he'd wear it, but most guys I know don't even wear watches.
I generally just get my dad, brother, and boyfriend clothes. However for my dad, I got him an RC plane that he can fly because he likes those. For my brother I'll probably get him a nice sweater of some sort since he likes to be cute and only if he gives me my friggin' car back. Otherwise he gets nothing. :colbert:
My boyfriend, he wants clothes, but he also likes cute things. Not sure what to get him other than clothes because no video games he wants are out right now. He is also not traditionally in to "man things" as is apparent by his taste in music, movies, and shows. Would be nice to have a few ideas.
>>> Cologne.
Real men doesn't bathe..:luca:
Video games, of course. Or books. Or tech stuff, or anything you put actual thought into.
I usually get my dad something he needs (like gloves), related to his interest (like something to do with cars), or TV series I know he will like (Thankfully, in that regard we are mostly similar).Quote:
Andladiesmen, what do you buy your menfolk for Christmas? I'm at a loss here! Grateful that I don't have a boyfriend to buy for this year though. :cool:
As for my guy friends, it is basically whatever is on sale on Steam and is on their wishlist.
And my boyfriend, probably something he can use since he's that type of guy (thinking of Outlook because he was bitching about the lack of it in the Office Home & Student). Maybe a little Sonic figure because that's the only geeky thing he likes. Thought about getting him a watch for our anniversary but he only likes to wear one for work because "it looks more professional" than actually enjoys wearing them.
Personally Im happy with anything as long as its not something that looks like you're trying to change me.
Beard oil.
Put a can of Guinness in the stocking. My Nan used to do that for my Grandad and it made his morning every year!
General things I like to get:
-Craft beer gift set
-Electronics
-Gaming paraphernalia (tshirts/manly cactuar stuffed-doll/collector item)
-yoyo
-something to pass the time at work
-book (sadly last WOT book comes out after xmas)
.... and I'm out of ideas at the moment!
A t-shirt of a band/sports team he likes is always a safe bet.
Miriel's post is strangely sexist.
