"Manly" website starter pack

Why is an image of someone sharpening a kitchen knife called "obscure and outdated"? Is everyone out there just using shitty dull knives now? Lol

Sharpening and caring for your knives is hardly an outdated skill you'll never use. If you're not regularly sharpening your knives, you're doing yourself a major disservice.

If y'all still out there shaving with cartridge razors you're wasting so much money on getting a shittier shave.

But, yeah, "Art of Manliness" and their ilk do try to capitalize on a call to return to old fashion things by selling jazzed up overpriced safety razors and brushes.

You don't need fancy shit to get a better cheaper shave.

Can we start making websites/forums devoted to just regular individual wholesome dudes and characterize them as peak masculinity?

I need to sharpen my knives

Wetshaving seems fancy but honestly its the cheapest, fastest and best way to shave, that i have found.

Okay, but knife sharpening is not outdated since everyone that cooks needs sharp knives. Bad choice. Shoulda been something like starting fires with wood friction.

So many people are freaking out over the knife sharpening. A) you're in this picture and you don't like it B) hand sharpening on a whetstone isn't necessary for home cooks. Other tools will get you to adequate with a lot less effort, both in learning and using the tools.

It's ok to not optimize everything in your life. It's ok to put your knives in the dishwasher. It's ok to shave with an electric. It's ok to not look like or dress like how these sites say you should.

Edit: jeeze, apparently it's not ok so much so that it's ok to imply violence is acceptable against people who put their knives in the dishwasher. I'm pretty grossed out by this interaction and at the people that insist their way of doing something is better, easier, whatever, when I've already said no thanks. Ew.

Rolex 🙄 no thanks. Not interested in overpriced, obsolete jewelry. Let’s just call it what it is 🤷🏼‍♀️ Casio digital, ftw 🙌🏼 bc I actually like to know what time it is.

Haven’t purchased cologne since I was probably like 20. Dudes really go ape shit over that creed stuff, ay?

Since when is sharpening kitchen knives obscure? Have you guys never used a sharp knife before? Are you cutting food with dangerous and dull knives??

I recently got a set of knives that are sharper than I have ever seen, though one is kinda dull. I plan on sharpening it soon, just waiting on getting my wetstones in the mail.

And above all, everything is brown for some reason.

With the exception to the rolex and “10 things she wants to see you wear”, I like the things here.

Sure, all of that and then you go out with an half windsor, like a schoolboy

I use a pair of bose like that when I'm at work. The Noise Cancelling is really good.

“Alpha”

When you drive the the circus and all the clowns are dead

Say what you will, but that's a nice looking jacket.

Wetshaving?

The whole idea of "manliness" is kinda bullshit, but if we're gonna roll with that, the most "manly" thing to do is not shave at all.
