It’s Friday, and that means answer time! For those of you who have commented with questions from previous ManFAQs, thank you. I’m adding yours to the list of questions women have asked about men over the years, and I will answer them all in turn – to continue to demystify the more malodorous gender for those of the gentler. Actual questions, posed by real women, and answered by a REAL man. What could go wrong?<\/p>\n
Question:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0What’s the deal with this male bonding business?<\/em><\/p>\n Answer:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Male bonding is a euphemism for spending time in a “safe” area, by which we mean a time and place where none of our bad habits will negatively impact our chances of Hey Hey later, yet still allow for some kind of social interaction.\u00a0 We tend to pass stories, drinks, and gas while lying about how brave we are<\/a>, how virile we are<\/a>, and how the Cubs are sure to win the series this year<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n It’s a chance to talk to others of our kind, either to solicit tips about Hey Hey from guys who may have had sex with actual women, or to check out the competition, in a friendly way.\u00a0 And by friendly, I mean drinking.\u00a0 And by check out, I mean finding out if you can drink more than that other guy.\u00a0<\/p>\n It’s a chance to do all those things that we imagine you don’t like, to be uncivilized, uncouth, and generally improper.\u00a0 Mind you, there’s a very real possibility that you wouldn’t, couldn’t, and in fact don’t give any kind of a damn about any of those things we do, since many are biological and biology textbooks indicate that you do many of them yourself.\u00a0 But we need to rebel against something, and we both know it’s not going to be you, so we take a little time-out from proper society and we rebel against that, for as long as we can.\u00a0 You know, until we run out of beer.<\/p>\n Now you know.\u00a0 Please, feel free to comment with any questions you’d<\/strong> like answered!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What’s the deal with this male bonding business? we need to rebel against something, and we both know it’s not going to be you, so we take a little time-out from proper society and we rebel against that, for as long as we can.
