Modern society is gradually blurring the lines between things that used to be considered strictly "masculine" or "feminine", both in the professional and personal spheres. What was taken for granted half a century ago is now certainly being criticized and rethought.
We must say that men still remain more conservative in this regard: while enjoying something "typically masculine" for a modern woman is really cool and always worthy of support, many men still perceive "typically feminine" activities as guilty pleasures. But the situation is gradually improving.
One day a thread appeared in the AskReddit community, where the topic starter asked: "Men of reddit, what's something you enjoy that's considered unmasculine?" The thread collected nearly 1.2K upvotes and over 2K different comments, where men revealed their most diverse activities and hobbies. We have to admit that it turned out very interesting and really informative.
Bored Panda made a list of the most popular and original answers from this thread for you, so feel free to scroll to the end of this compilation. And if you are a man and you did not find your hobby in this list, perhaps you will share it with us as we highly appreciate this.

My girlfriend regularly buys me a women's shower gel called "snow fairy", a pink product that smells *amazing*. She knows it's my guilty pleasure and I don't care that I'm a tall, burly guy in the army.
Nobody messes with my snow fairy.
Kathryn Baylis 3 years ago (edited)
My husband, also a big burly manly man, has a similar “guilty pleasure”. He likes to soak in a hot bath, using the sweetest smelling bubble bath he can find. He. Does. NOT. Care. What. Anybody. Thinks. About. It. See, he injured his back when he was in his twenties, and in his forties it started to really ache if he overdid it. He soaks in the hot baths to soothe his aching back, so if he also wants to smell flowers/citrus/vanilla while doing it, that’s a privilege I wouldn’t dream of taking from a good, loving, hardworking man like him. Besides, it makes the bathroom smell good for me too!

I buy my husband (who is super manly looking men ) a shower gel called Sugar Cookie, it does smell amazing and just like it sounds. So if you like to smell like a sugar cookie or a lavender honey or a unicorn fart- it doesn't make you less of a men or unmanly, all it does it making you smell great!

Female metalhead nearing 50 here 👋🏼 (and for many people being a metalhead isn't feminine!) I don't think that these things are not masculine.

Baking, its science you can eat!

Absolutely-cooking is an art, and experimentation with flavours and textures and times is good fun, but the chemical reactions that are needed for successful baked products need precise measurements of specific ingredients, volumes, times and temperature.

Women who don't understand that forcing men to act "masculine" are robbing them of living completely human lives. Men should be allowed to cry and laugh and love fiercely without judgement because those are HUMAN experiences. If we don't let people express their emotions honestly and openly, they turn into incels. We have to start young, letting boys express themselves, so they will have better emotional regulation as adults. Women can be powerful and effective leaders and men can be nurturing care-givers, and frankly, we need to let people use their strengths regardless of gender or race or religion or sexual orientation or gender identity.

Now they do it together. My husband does almost all financial stuff, because he is better at it. However, I am a bit better at small details - so I check everything over. That works for us.

Many of the stereotypes for “masculinity” would plunge us into a downright uncivilized existence if they became the guide for everyone’s life. The world would be in continual chaos, we would never have advanced beyond cave life, it would be a nightmare for women, children, animals, and the environment (even worse than now), and we would eventually kill each other off in stupid scorched earth pissing contests (wars). We need to evolve, not devolve, make those negative stereotypes a thing of the past, and work on becoming the truly civilized and enlightened society we have the capacity to be.

First of, thanks for this question. I feel like it's an important one for men to read the answers to.
Now for my own answers:
I love when people play with my hair. It was one of the reasons I grew it out back when.
I'm very keen on physical contact (with permission of course), like hugging, people touching my shoulder while talking to me or vice versa...

Yes! Many mammals have grooming rituals that bond them together, and privates have particularly strong needs to touch and groom each other. As long as the touches are consensual, it's comforting and good for our relationships!

My husband loves to play with my hair, and undoing whatever made-up thing I worked 15 minutes to do, but he doesn't like to be touched on the head for some reason. BUT I can touch anywhere else! And it doesn't have to be sexual either. Sometimes the need is just there; we pass by each other in the hall, or go to the kitchen at the same time, etc.

Animation is the medium, and there's so many genres. It's not all for children. Watership Down? Black Cauldron? Secret of Nimh? These were rated G when they first came out, but would you really let your kids watch it the first time alone when they're 8 or so? Fritz the Cat, South Park, and others are made specifically for adults. Like...whatever floats your boat my dude, I wanna watch the 1991 version of The Little Engine that Could again, but nobody has it on Blu-Ray. Just the gross CGI one.

I love people wanting to say hello to my dogs! I think they're the cutest dogs there are (just like all dogs are of course!). Though when my tiny dog was a puppy she was mobbed by a large group of children wanting to say hello (she was that cute and only the size of a guinea pig!) but they didn't ask permission and give me the chance to say 'one at a time'. The sheer number suddenly descending on her scared her badly. Since then she has remained nervous of people she doesn't know. So you are right to always ask 👍 My other dog would be in ecstasy having someone new to say hello to and he adores children (though he can't eat a whole one - sorry old joke!) 😆

Some men see it as feminine to want to have nice skin.

Can feel too much effort, can't it? Though on days when you are wavering about 'is it worth it', try to go for it. There may be times when it could give you a little boost. Or least, I've found that to be the case. Depression is hard, I hope you are in a good place right now.

Talking articulately about feelings. Also, related, talking with people where the point is to get to know someone and develop a bond with them, rather than to exchange factual information to get a task done. And yes, I'm aware that the latter does create real bonds between people, and can be an awesome solution for men who are not comfortable talking about their feelings. But I prefer to skip this "pretend we're actually only getting together to do stuff" part and cut right to the getting personal part.

Talking about my feelings, It took a bit to be able to do it but now I can have conversations with my friends a majority of them being girls about how I feel about things or how I am doing mentally. So many guys don't understand the benefit of just venting away frustrations, ever since my bros and I have been having deep psychological discussions about how we feel we have changed so much. we are more responsible and level headed and we know that our plans our big and that it is taxing mentally and that sometimes all you need is a hug and a good talk.
