what do men really want as a present?

Bright Smile

a clichéd question, but what would be the coolest pressie a guy could get? what do men really want in the line of xmas, 21st birthdays and general birthdays?

frodi

It will vary from bloke to bloke. For best results get thm something that they wouldn't get themselves. Things like flying lessons, one day rallying, that type of stuff. Fellas love it but seldom spend their own money on it.

DerekD Goldfish

it would probably be better suited to after hours as its not really a personal issue

but the awnser is sex

Winters

Yea, crazy stuff like flying lessons, or maybe a bungee jump [if they are brave enough] would be a good idea. Maybe a racing driving lesson [if they have a full licence] would be a good one actually. Most blokes will however settle for a condom and a promise.

Urgh, threading on thin ice there though... what if the person had a horrible accident while bunjee jumping and YOU were the one who bought the ticket! :eek:
I just wouldn't feel right.

Very true Derek. In the absence of that though, and with a slightly lower budget, DVD and CD stuff always goes down well. Ive been hinting for the Seinfeld box set for weeks now and if I get it, I will be extremely happy. So depending on budget, CD/DVD stuff or if you have the extra bit of cash, then as suggested, racing car lessons at Mondello, flying lessons etc.

Just not clothes or aftershave/deodorant et al.

We need those things, so we buy them ourselves, albeit with better taste.

Something that needs a power supply , in silver, a remote and has loads of buttons !!!

Can be anything once you stick to these guidlines and you can't fail to impress.

I guess I'd like something I might not buy for myself. A rad DVD box set, flying lessons, diving lessons. As for the sex thing it's not really something I'd like instead of a pressie but my gf is really good to me in this regard for special occasions.

Please realise this question could be about Bright Smile's father / brother / uncle / etc.

Tbh if its your gf buying it for you, chances are youre already getting sex most of the year anyway, so more sex for crimbo is gonna feel like a rip off.
In a word, men want GADGETS. The shinier the better. Get something really cool like the new PSP (if theyre available on import, not sure bout that) or a nintendo DS. Failing that, DVD's games and booze ALWAYS go down well for me at christmas. So you can play your new games, then get drunk watching your new dvd's.

Sex.
Lesbian sex.
More sex.
Actually blokes are really easy to buy for. We tell people what we want all year - we jsut get ignored. And personally, I have no objection to socks as a pressie. Socks, cd's, books, films, it's easy. If you're stuck, just ask "what's your favourite film/author/actor/director/band" and then look through the shelves for what he hasn't got.

Tommy Vercetti

Yes it is all about the sex, if my better half got me a good whore for an hour, I simply couldn't be happier. Unless there was a case of beer too. Either way, your crappy aftershave is never going to give him what her really wants.

oq4v3ht0u76kf2

Slutmonkey speaks the truth, socks can actually be quite cool. Really, anything you buy us we will like as it will make our lives easier (in the case of socks, deoderant sets, etc. - the stuff I seem to get every year!) or better (DVDs, CDs, flying lessons, etc.). And if you're in any way close to the person then you can get away with even more 'cos even the most generic thing will have that "X gave this to me." appeal.

Win/Win really.

Gadgets! It has to be gadgets! The more buttons it has the better! You just cannot go wrong. If it also comes in 100's of parts, thats even better! Hours of time spent putting it together, just to realise you left the critical part out, and to put it back in, you have to take it ALL apart.

At that stage, it usually becomes an expensive paperweight

A lovely woolly jumper.

Alternatively, an in-car GPS system - months of fun as they shout at it and disagree with its instructions and abuse it from a height.

Or gadgets - don't have to be expensive, just cool. For instance, the SoundBug is fun - it's a mouse-sized yoke that you stick on a window or table or any flat surface, and it turns the surfact into a speaker.

A binary watch, so they can really show off by telling the time in binary. Very alpha geek, and truly silly.

Oh, wait, I want all of these things too. And the woolly jumper should be hand-knitted by the loving hands of the giver, and have lots of cables or Fair Isle patterning.

back to the topic, actually many men like a good eau de cologne, "Kenzo Refane" smells really nice! it would make a good present

No. They want a remote controlled vibrator.

Ok, a proviso to my socks comment: Socks are ok If you're a dad. When you have kids you grow to really appreciate the complex things in life, like the ability to reach into a drawer and have a sock to put on. Prior to dadhood, it's a bit naff I suppose. And post-kids, sex is an even more impressive present because you don't get it the rest of the year.

If the car's not his don't put a cd player in it. The car owner will turn up one day and drive the car and player away. Tears will ensue.

yawnstretch

I agree with whoever said PSP: I would marry any girl on the spot who got me one of those for Christmas!



On a side note - not a chance in hell you'll get one this Christmas unless you've a ****load of cash. Even though its cost nearer to 200 euro you'll pay 500 for one on ebay now!

Luckily I pre-ordered mine in August
(Still not sure if Ill get it in time for Christmas though)

Yes I know this doesnt help - unless you can find someone with a pre-order or you get one on ebay or something!

CJ_Will

I'm going to have to echo what I already see here. Anything electronic would be grand. Or anything to do with anything electronic. Maybe even anything remotely to with anything that may be connected to something electronic. Perhaps even just something you place in something with electricity. Yeah, that would be nice too. Did I mention it should be electronic?

Blitzkrieger

There is no one answer. I have to buy a girl a present and I have no idea what to get her. I tried asking my few female friends and the first thing they did was bombard me with questions about what she is like. It's the same with men. A particular gadget might be a quick and easy answer but he might already have one. It's the same with CDs/DVDs/games.

In the end, you're on your own. We could give you ideas all day for what we want.

CyberGhost

If you still can't decide just give him a gift voucher, for like 50 euro, and let him choose what he wants, IMHO this is the best present!

ven0m

For me it's one money can't buy; someone special in my life & for them to be around on my brithday or christmas..... never been with someone on either day & they're within 3 weeks of each other.....

Blowjob vouchers.

I'd say lying naked on a bed with a big ribbon coming up between your legs, and the cross of it over your breasts with a big bow in the middle (all covered) would be a good present to unwrap.

Order of things for men...

Sex
Shiney things

Maybe I have low expectations- I'd be thrilled to get a voucher with something along the following written on it:

"This entitles the bearer to X numbers of breakfast in bed."
or
"This entitles the bearer to assistance with tidying the house and laundry"

Pressie does not necessarily have to be a physical gift- sometimes the little things- spending time with someone, or doing things together, can mean far more than any gift you could possibly hope to buy in the shop.

Re: CD player for car- Kenwood have a distributor in the Robinhood Industrial Estate that sell one of their systems for under 200 Euro that plays MP3s and has really really decent sound. Do shop around- and get advice, there is no point in buying the first system you see.

I would have to go with a voucher for some type of alternating Sex,

something like, beeing his slave for a day,
I wen't with the threesome thing with a girlfriend, and I must say, t'was the best pressie ever

I picked up an MP3 car stereo recently on Pixmania, 'twas delivered within a week (so in time for Chrimbo). Tis rather cool and the missus thinks its great 'cos she can get 10 or so of her Diana Ross, Dido etc albums on one CD and not have to change CDs all the time.

This is such a relief. I always wondered how to find my true sexuality; now I know it's my taste in woolly jumpers and gadgets.

/me stares out of window at schoolgirls. Damn, not a flicker. Oh well, bound to happen if I wait long enough and wear woolly enough jumpers.

And I have a pair of boobies, not too big, but boobies. So yah boo, sucks (as it were) to you.

ShiverinEskimo

Threesome would be the ultimate. but obviously can get messy. (i mean bad-messy).

But is that cat wont fly, for any man, a miniature fridge. pain in the hole to have to go to the kitchen to get beer.

Or imagine wakin up hungover with the taste like a badger's arse in your mouth and turning over to a miniature fridge filled with cool, crisp, refreshing bottles of <insert fav bottled water brand here>.

I'm telling you, he'll be thanking you <insert number of nights out a week> mornings a week for the rest of his life.
