Lady Blogger Wants to Know: What Do Men Actually Want for Christmas?
I know AoM has a great set of posts on gifts for men, but there is nothing on any of their lists that my husband would enjoy. (At least nothing I haven't already gotten him.) I like to buy or make meaningful or useful gifts, but he seems unimpressed.
So, here's the question: what general principles could I use to figure out what a man actually wants for Christmas?
I'm especially interested to hear from men who are masculine, but who aren't the outdoorsy "man's man" the AoM list seems perfect for.
Thanks for all the help you've been in the past! Thanks to you, women know how to help their husbands be better dads and how to tell you when they are and are not interested. I really appreciate you helping me understand men better.

For my last birthday my gf made me a photo album of all the good times we had in the past... I was always saying that it was a pity that photo's nowadays never get it past an upload to the computer and that I wish I had those photo's in bookform. and so she made me that album!
an absolute great gift!

Instead of taking the chance I buy for myself and have my wife wrap it up. She would have a hard time finding the stuff I like...fishing equipment, watches, briefcases, that sort of stuff.
