    Because of a Recent thread that shall not be mentioned. I have decided to post the MAN LAWS.
    Designed by a panel of men consisting of; Chuck Norris, Bruce Lee and a platoon of Army Rangers they are the laws of the manliest men.




    1. No wasted beer in the name of humor.

    2. It has been made official that under no circumstances should the male have to pay for birth control

    3. If your best friend is dumped by a girl it is a 6 month waiting period till she can be touched. If he breaks up with her its a 6 day waiting period.

    4. If two or more males arrived at a party by a single car, and the driving male is hooking up with a girl, it is the responsibility of the other males to find other ways home.
    (The exception to this law is if the driver is hooking up with his own girlfriend, the law is then void and the driver still holds full resposibility of driving his frinds home)

    5. Short shorts have been banned.. unless in a participating in a sporting event that demands shorter shorts. Also no real man should be allowed to pop his collar.

    6. Every man shall allow one empty urinal of separation in a bathroom with three or more urinals, law is void if there are dividers in between each urinal.

    7. If a girl and a guy are not officialy dating then it can't be considered cheating. However...if the guy cheats with a girl that is less attractive to the one he is originally interested in then he is either... A) Drunk or B) Dumbass. This then gives the original girl the right to either get mad or laugh at you.

    8. No one should ever steal a man's alcohol from that man's cooler...this is the only law that suffers the penalty of death.

    9. When bringing condoms to a party it is a man's responsibility to pack two in his pockets and one in his car as a spare incase a friend is in desperate need.

    10. No heavy fornication in a friend's bed. Or just wash the sheets.

    11. No man shall every use a rolling backpack. If you can't carry the bag then your not a man.

    12. If another man's fly is down, you didn't see anything and may not make a comment about it.


    13. When a man is borrowing a buddies tool or other equipment, if the borrowie puts any scratches or brings it back with any noticable wear, then he is required to do one of the following: If the item costs under €50 , you are required to replace it. If the item costs over €50 , you are required to give him a case of beer, because hey...who wants to spend more than €50 on something that isn't yours.

    14. When your friend picks up a hot girl...however the hot girl has an ugly friend...it is only right that you operate as a wing man doing whatever it is you gotta do to help your buddy have some time alone with the hot girl. As men we are obligated to sacrifice and pay it forward for each other knowing that the favor will one day be repayed.

    15. When calling shotgun, all riders of the car must be outside, and shotgun can only be called when the car is in view. Riders in the car are not allowed to run to shotgun and steal it before the person who called and deserves it arrives there. The driver of the car has no authority to decide on who gets shotgun. If a legitimate confrontation comes up where the rightful owner of the shotgun can not be determined then it will be decided by one round of paper rock scissors (with no shoot). If the two contenders tie 5 times in a row then the rightful owner of the shotgun is to be decided by a UFC cage match in which the first blood drawn decides the rightful owner of shotgun.

    Addendum to Man Law No. 15:
    If at any point during the process of determining the shotgun rider a hot girl hints that she would like to sit up front the driver has the sole right to declare her the shotgun rider and depending upon the situation may even deny rides to all other passengers. However, if said hot girl is an ex of any passenger they may overrule the driver's decision and make her ride in the back. Additionally, if all passengers happen to be female then revert back to original method of deciding shotgun rider substituting mud wrestling for UFC cage match. The winner then gets either a cold water hose down or shotgun the next ride unless the car is really ****ty and the owner doesn’t care about muddy seats.

    16. It is PAPER, ROCK, SCISSORS with no shoot. If you must say shoot, it has to be agreed apon by both men and a witness has to be present and somewhat sober.

    17. When toasting with beers you clank with the bottom.

    18. You poke it you own it.

    19. The head nod is an acceptable way to greet another guy when simply walking past. No words are needed to be said. An upward nod is for friends, a downward nod is for fellow men.

    20. If a man is on vacation to a state that does not border his own, or any other country, it is not considered cheating if he so chooses to engage in sexual activity with a girl other than his girlfriend. Although he should be fully aware that his girlfriend may not see eye to eye if she was to ever find out.

    21. A man should not masturbate more than 3 times in a day to insure being ready for any unknown or known late night action. Assisting Girls does not count.. rule is in exception if male party is in a bet to set a record of number of times in a day.

    22. A man shall never wear any article of women's clothing (I.E .. Girls Jeans/Pants!) unless they are the loser of such a bet.. or if a man is figuratively in a girls pants.. (or any other article of clothing).

    23. No man in any circumstance, unless mocking a violater of this law, should pop his collar.

    24. A man should never be denied the right to adjust himself or place his hands down his pants under any circumstances.

    25. BEING GAY IS NOT ALLOWED... EVER, NO EXCEPTIONS. All gay "people" lose the title of man, and should never be referred to, in any context, as man.

    26. All men must eat meat. A ****load of meat. If not borderline carnivore. For no reason should a man ever be a vegitarian, or eat sick **** like tofu. Also no man should consume any food with the terms "diet", "fat free", or any other healthy suggesting terms for the sake of "watching his weight" or dieting.

    27. Every man is required to learn some form of Poker before he dies.

    28. If a man ever does something wrong a simple "OOPS", "My Bad", or any variations of cuss words that get the point across will suffice, no need to say "I'm Sorry"

    29. No man should ever hook up with his best friend's girl, no matter how hot she is. This is in effect while they are dating or "together." If they are seperated refer to Law 3 for the proper way to handle the situation. (Side Advice: Less guilt is involved if she comes on to you.

    30. Under no circumstance should any one man cockblock another mans attempt at getting some tang. Lets just leave that up to the tangs fat friend. Please note that cockblocking will result in a suspension of your Man status and its privileges, and will result in the title Manbitch.

    36. In the court of Man Law the statement "I was Drunk" will have the same effect as an insanity plea (reduced punishment) in standard court provided the defendant's blood alcohol level exceeds .10.

    37. If any male is caught violating a Man Law in serious context, as a form of punishment he should be disowned of his manly name, only to receive the title of "Manbitch" from his peers and colleagues. Forgiveness is pending the severity of the broken law...or a case of beer to all his offended peers as a token of respect to what is manly...and what is not.

    38. Any man that is old enough and is not in the army should at least support the troops, even if you dont agree with the war they are your country men fighting to protect you and you should show them your support

    Too many rules. And whats with the references to the war and the troops? Give me some Irish rules.

    Also, what does pop a collar mean?

    And be nicer to the wimmens. There's a difference between being manly and being an a**hole.

    The list is American so is therefore not without it's flaws. A good start point nonetheless!

    2. It has been made official that under no circumstances should the male have to pay for birth control

    9. When bringing condoms to a party it is a man's responsibility to pack two in his pockets and one in his car as a spare incase a friend is in desperate need.

    Bit contradictory.

    Way TL;DR.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,466 ✭✭✭Blisterman


    Might I add to the list of times a man can cry:

    When a best friend/parent/dog dies.

    And even then, only a single manly tear is allowed. No sobbing. Vengance is allowed, and encouraged.

    I think what was meant there was the "contarceptive pill",
    C'mon!..i honestly dont think that any man actually expects a girl to have a pack of condoms on her the whole time!
    the way i see it both should be responsible, the woman for the pill, the man for johnies...am i right or am right?!

    good read by the way. any criticism about how long the post was shouldnt be counted simply for the fact that there ARE quite a lot of rules to being a man.haha

    didnt like number 3 though. any bird that has been with your mate is a "no go zone" for you ever! UNLESS... it was just for fun and your mate has made that perfectly clear. theres plenty more fish in the sea lads, and a mate is a mate. birds just confuse things.'nuff said.......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,905 ✭✭✭Rob_l


    Your all missing the key factor in why this list is just plain wrong(and stupid),

    Men dont need a list of rules

    Real men make their own rules!

    FACT

    I think it should be null and void if he never slept with her himself.



    ......I know someone who wouldn't see it that way though... :D

    Well ya, i totally agree!
    and also with the last part!we all have those friends ot there that just dont get the offence of getting with a girl that a "good mate" has had shall we say "intimacies" with. they'll just never seem to get it though,doesnt mean they're not friends..you just simply cannot trust them around your girl(trick is getting a girl you can trust;)) The only way to deal with such friends is to take them for what they are...

    as to the remark above(still cant multi quote,must learn how to sometime!) yes it is silly and all but tbh,i think its only a bitta light hearted fun..your comment was smart though haveta say:p
    no one tells me what to do:mad::mad:
