This discussion might have already been posted, but given the number of discussions, it is hard to tell.

So here goes:

I want to initiate the ultimate list of Manly Things. 

Add to it, or even disagree with something someone has added, but NO DUPLICATES (that means, you have to read and pay attention to what has already been listed)

Does not have to be physical things, can also be activities, etc.

I am interested to see if we can reach 1,000 items;  shouldn't be that difficult.

Here are my contributions for the first 25:

1.  barber shops

2.  coin collections

3.  stubble

4.  Aqua Velva

5.  briefcases

6.  wing tips

7.  pin up posters

8. beer mugs

9.  Right Guard

10.  cigars

11.  camping

12.  betting shops

13.  toothpicks

14.  chewing tabacco

15.  wanking

16.  whiskey

17.  hairy pits

18.  hula girl lamps

19. English Leather

20.  boxing

21.  cowboy boots

22. jockstraps

23.  pipes

24.  shoe shine kits

25.  money clips
