Things you're man (or woman) enough to admit

Submitted by jrt336 on

We had a thread kind of like this one for music a week or two ago, but what do you do that is considered "girly" that you're man enough to admit? It could be TV shows or movies you like, drinks that you enjoy, books that you've read, etc.

I too tend to cry when I watch Extreme Makeover Home Edition.  Something seeing those families and the excitement of getting those homes really gets me.

Then, I think about their new property tax bills... and it makes me cry even more!

I found myself welling up watching that show one day and I don't really watch TV ('ceptin sports). Some big fat people who had taken in a million kids and their house was (natch) falling down. When the big bus rolled up and everyone ran out and then got told they were going to Disney, well. . . I cut loose. Then I felt totally manipulated. But I liked it.

The movie "The Devil Wears Prada". Also several other chick flicks, I usually balance these out by watching Blade Runner or Kung Fu movies. I also happen to like "girly drinks" better than "manly drinks". But hey, orange juice is good shit.

I'm not afraid of putting a Mike's Hard Cranberry Lemonade Light on ice when it's 90 degrees outside.

I'm also not afraid to put that shower body wash on that little fu-fu spongie thing that my wife has in the shower and scrub away

I also am not afraid to sing along to Le Rouge's "Bullet Proof" with a crown on my head while freely displaying jazz hands and spinning air keyboard while dancing with my 4 year old daughter. However, I'm man enough to admit that I do this (but without the crown) sometimes at parties or get-togethers (after a few Mike's Hard Cranberry Lemonade Light on ice)

It's usually the International one that gets me all bent...

"Julie is a single professional looking for a ocean front home in (insert exotic island location) so she can enjoy the ocean view while working on her laptop."

or

"Biff and Sally are looking for a second home in sunny (insert exotic island name) that's big enough for their 10 children and 40 grandchildren to visit."

My wife loves Property Virgins. Those people are clueless. I want a 5 bedroom houuse, with 4.5 baths, new construction, a big yard, granite countertops, and 40 foot ceilings for $150,000.

Good luck with that.

Also, in no way is Holmes on Homes girly.

that was a couple that lived in San Francisco looking for a weekend home in Napa Valley with a budget of $2M or something like that. Wanna be my friend? Wanna be my dad???

Also, do you think they air US House Hunters in other countries and call it House Hunters International?
