Exactly. I got the upstairs, the bar, and pretty much our backyard. My man cave has a ton of stuff I do not want for the Fed Ex men to see in our living room.

Kids have whatever.

Wife makes our house look good. I sure as shite cannot decorate. So, she gets bedroom. Guestrooms. Bathroom. Kitchen. Her way. I am okay with it. Never raised an issue about it.

Sounds like she’s the boss and you’ve accepted your place. That’s pathetic.

Guys, it's OK. Enjoy your man caves. Own them. Just admit, though, that they represent that you've ceded the rest of your homes to the women in your lives. You know, happy wife, happy life, huh? It's not that you're unable or unwilling to stand up for yourself, it's just that you don't want to rock the boat.
You've obviously never touched a breast in your life.

Not reading all the replies and I’m probably echoing others... but if someone has a ton of sports memorabilia, or hunting trophies, etc, it’s nice to tuck that away in one place.

I imagine he and his wife spend 95% of their time eating popcorn on the couch while watching either lifetime movies or house hunters marathons. They have sex once a year on his birthday. He get's to grill out when the mood strikes her for BBQ...he is man.

My man cave is bad arse.


Mine too. It is on my ground floor and in it there's a 48 inch HDTV, stereo system, private bathroom, adequate seating for company, 2 dart boards and a ton of exercise equipment in free weights and various apparatuses.

It also acts as a pantry that I store canned goods I make from my back yard garden and also a large frost free freezer for food storage. Oh, and last but not least, a beer fridge for keeping adult beverages nice and cold.

Not bragging, just stating fact.

I've not relinquished any part of my house except the bathroom in the morning when my wife is getting ready for work. Being retired now, I pretty much take care of everything that goes on in the house and don't mind one bit doing it.

I've been cooking for over 50 years and my wife doesn't have to touch a pot or pan unless she wants to. I also have no problems doing laundry and cleaning the house since my wife is gone from 7:45 till 5:30 Monday-Friday. If I'm home all day, I can't see her dealing with that crap when she gets home.

Now, my wife's favorite hangout is on the 2nd story back porch overlooking the garden while sitting on the porch swing sipping her glass of Chardonnay and keeping up with family and friends on her cellphone while smoking an occasional cigarette.

Like you said, "Happy wife, happy life".

Surprised you wouldn't have commented on the cheap welding machine, then again, I guess when we need something major we call someone like you.
