Bunch of faggots if you ask me...tho I suspect most of you do this several times a week!
Are You Man Enough to Try This?
It used to be called hanging out. Now it's called a "man date" when two straight guys spend time together.
At least, that's what The New York Times. Reporter Jennifer Lee coined the term that is destined to make men squirm with recognition. Do realize, please, that every time you and your best bud get together it is not a man date. Oh no. There are strict rules about what makes it a man date or not.
First and foremost, it's only a man date when two heterosexual guys get together for several hours or even spend the whole day together much as they would with a woman--without the hand-holding, kisses, and sex. Women have been doing this since the dawn of time, but somehow when men try to do the same thing, it's considered suspect. On the downside, it's ripe with social peril and the potential to be misunderstood as being gay. On the upside, men can experience the same kind of emotional support from a friend that women take for granted.
The man date rules:
* Business meetings don't count. Neither do sporting events.
* The outing must be the kind you would arrange with a woman, such as a visit to a museum.
* Eating together if there is no TV counts. Eating in a bar does not.
* Taking a walk in the park counts. Jogging does not.
* Going to the movies counts. Going to a basketball game does not.

If you've seen the movie "Sideways," you've seen a man date--a very long and wine-soaked man date, notes the Times.
Tips for man dates so no one thinks you're gay:
* Beer and hard liquor are acceptable drinks. Wine may be risky; order it only by the glass and never share a bottle.
* Choose a steak place over a romantic Italian restaurant. Never do brunch.
* Don't ever cook at home for your friend unless you're grilling or deep-frying.
* Each man pays for himself. Don't ever pay for your friend or let him pay for you.
* Choose movies with explosions and lots of special effects. Never see a romantic comedy on a man date. You might even want to make sure there's an empty seat between you.
The golden rule of man dates: If a woman comes along, the man date can be canceled even at the last minute with no questions asked.

Thanks, but don't tell PJP! He's quite the overprotective type!

only a woman could think of something this fuckin stupid. Turning something like hanging out into a cutesy date. But this makes me laugh cuz my brother went to a wedding yesterday with his best friend. My brother asked his friend to go because his sister got busted for a DUI and had to go to some program, so his friend talked him into letting him go instead so they could pick up women. I told them both it could backfire, but they told me I'm retarded and nobody's gonna think anything.
So it's bad enough he's taking a guy as his date, but then my metro-style brother decided to wear a pink shirt and tie. So he goes to pick up his metro-style friend, who also turns out to be wearing pink. So instead of telling him to go back inside and put something else on, they figure fuck it and decide to go. Now, wearing matching attire is cute and all when you're a couple, but when you plan on picking up women at any event like this showing up together, late, wearing pink matching shirt and ties, the only thing that can possibly ensue is hilarity, which did indeed ensue. Needless to say, neither of them got very lucky last night.

uhhh... are they taking the age-old pastime of "hanging out" and making it gay by giving it a name and rules?  So, you're telling me that if a friend is a couple bucks short, it's "against the rules" to lend then the money? that's fucking retarded.
