We could buy brushcutters, hammers and cable ties at the same time as we ate good food and got pedicures. I'd love that.

Maybe the first time around. I guess my husband would fail Combos' test for manliness since he decorated our house, loves sushi and his favorite cupcake is red velvet (minus bacon), and I love me a good steak. Unlike the marketing team at Combos, neither of us are so insecure that we have to define our identities based on food preferences (and doesn't that just create ANOTHER unhealthy relationship with food? we definitely don't need more of that).

Glad you liked the post! @Jennifer - agreed! Seeing the stereotypical manly stuff as the ideal makes it pretty tough for guys who don't conform to gender norms. @Statistical Freak Well, if you could buy them at “Alex’s Genderless Dessert Cafe”, you might be able to convince me to go for some bacon cupcakes.
