What cities are the most "manly" in America?
Apparently, if you are a man, the most manly city is Nashville and the least manly is New York (via Newsalert):
Having spent much time in both places, I must concur. What do you think?
Step aside men of Motown, Sin City and the Big Apple. Nashville now ranks as the manliest city in America. Mars Snackfood US announced today the release of "America's Manliest Cities" - a study commissioned by COMBOS(R) Brand in partnership with Bert Sperling, the research expert behind the popular "Best Places to Live" studies.
Via the "America's Manliest Cities" study, COMBOS(R) - the hearty, pretzel and cracker snack made with real cheese - examines what makes a city manly and then ranks 50 major metropolitan areas using criteria such as number of professional major league sports teams, popularity of tools and hardware and frequency of monster truck rallies. Cities also lose ranking points for emasculating characteristics like the abundance of home furnishing stores, high minivan sales and subscription rates to beauty magazines.
Having spent much time in both places, I must concur. What do you think?

Nashville is the most manly! Suddenly I feel all androgynous!

There's no way Milwaukee should rank above virtually anywhere in Texas. I wonder why that was ranked so high? Is it the motorcycle rally? That kind of stuff is faux manliness. Don't get me wrong, I don't denigrate it or wish to cast people that like that as "pretenders" or "posers" or anything, but it also isn't specifically manly, either. Of course, I've never been to one, so I probably shouldn't talk. But, I think everywhere in the midwest, including Milwaukee where I have lived before, is a lot more characterized by things like the minivan than not. If Texas was a vehicle it would be a Ford F150. I would say it is more manly than where I was raised: Columbia, SC, which is, in turn more manly than anywhere in the midwest I have been (Wisconsin and Ohio). (If Columbia was a car, it would probably be a beat up old single cab shortbed pick-em-up truck.)
Oh yeah, though -- definitely NYC is full of a bunch of ultra liberal weenies. They have now surpassed California in my eyes. (Maybe they were always that way and I just never realized it.) Certainly Nashville or probably anywhere in TN is more manly than that. In fact, New Yorkers are so unmanly that they seem to take a lot of pride in this fact.
What makes a man a man? Enthusiasm for monster truck rallies of course. ;)
OK. As an expat Texan (junior high in Lubbock, high school in San Antonio, college in Houston, grad school in Austin) who is now living in Milwaukee, I do have to defend my new home. I love Texas and will always be a Texan, but Milwaukee beats the pants off Austin for sure and can hold its own with Lubbock and San Antonio. Houston and Dallas are full of sissies. Do they have Harley? Or Miller? I think not, hey?
On the other hand, I am a little, no, a lot ticked that it is illegal for me to do things like park overnight on the street in front of my own house or put yard waste in the trash. I moved here from Memphis and the state of Tennessee had far more important things to worry about than what was in my trash can and they didn't tax us to death, either. (And are City of Milwaukee school any better than City of Memphis schools? No they are not.) So by that measure, Milwaukee loses big time to Texas and Tennessee, where I could put whatever I damn well wanted to in my trash and park wherever I wanted.
Okay bucko! (Feel the manliness of that one!) How about concealed carry? While you're riding your Harley and drinking a beer, I'm driving my F150, secretly armed to the teeth, fighting government oppression just by carrying, and making sure that CPS has the unprecedented authority to round up hundreds of children with little or no actual cause so that it can effectively fight the evil patriarchical forces in society. (Wait a minute. Scratch that last one.)
Wisconsin = cheese
Texas = BEEF
Now we have cheese, beef, guns, pickups, harleys and beer. Ah, the moving definition of what it is to be a man. Keep em coming!
"What makes a man a man?"
What a great question!
Strength, self control, clarity of purpose, the ability to share difficult feelings with appropriate people, the willingness to suffer for his children, good boundaries.
Well, that is a start.

Tmink:
You mean no monster trucks?
Leave it to TMink to spoil our fun. :-)
I live near and work in number 4, Cincinnati. Lots of sports, college, pro and high school. Best of all due to a large number of Catholics plus a lot of people of German heritage (me on both counts), it's a great place to have a beer.
All this macho-egotistical "manly" bullshit will evaporate as Peak Oil kicks in.
WALK IN PEACE !
Men have a penis.Women have a vagina.
I heard that in Kindergarten Cop.
alex and cham want to have a penis, too. Since they don't, they don't want men to have one either.
Why are minivans unmanly symbols? Minivans are basically rug rat transporters. Someone had to father all those kids!
What is the essence of manliness? Doing the right thing when no one is looking. Standing up to life's tribulations, eschewing victimhood. Stoicism, grace under pressure.
Women nurture, men hunt. I realize the past three million years of heredity has been suppressed by society since WW2, but there are still some of us men around. Let the metrosexuals flail about and weep. Frankly, my dear, we don't give a damn!
Um, where the Hell is Shreveport, LA, on the list? We can't go get our mail without bearing arms (also I advise a backup pistol in your boot just in case).
Also, I'd like to state the obvious now (which is a manly thing to do), and the obvious is: Baton Rouge is a lot more manly than New Orleans.
I see Cincy landed at #4 out of 50. Rock on! I mean, how can a place with the first Hofbrauhaus in the States right across the river not clock in that high on the manliness scale? When the Germans wanted to put a franchise of their legendary restaurant in a city that would support it and be a good home, they chose...Cincinnati. Those Germans aren't dumb.
Huh? The bottom of the list is dominated by coastal cities? Shocker! As a current (temporary) resident of Boston, I was shocked to see it so high at #38...
golly, tough to decide. pickups or harleys? beef or cheese? pabst or pearl?
naw, not really hard at all to decide. 4 most famous texans: william b. travis; sam houston; audie murphy and sammy baugh.
4 most famous milwaukeeans: laverne; shirley; lenny and squiggy.
the defense rests, your honor.
Ohio rules! We kick Michigan ass again. Oh yeah!
I must confess that L enjoy the high end home furnishing stores, I just got back from donating some stuff to Goodwill in our Dodge minivan. They lost me at the beauty magazine.
I took an online test that checked out my browser history and rated me quite fem. Seems foodnetwork.com is not butch.
Trey - who loves to fish but missed the monster truck gene
Things guys like:
porn
wings
breasts (or gay/bi analogue)
loud music
intoxicants
big motors
fast computers
airplanes
guns (not all of us know that though)
cowboys
You guys fill in some more.

"4 most famous milwaukeeans: laverne; shirley; lenny and squiggy"
Hilariously astute.
Cham, how 'bout you throw out some definitions aside from monster trucks? Not all men find those entertaining, really.
but Milwaukee beats the pants off Austin
Excuse me, but duh. Austin is home to t.u. and filled with girly-men trying to impress each other, only occasionally thinking about impressing the coeds who attend school with them.
Do they have Harley? Or Miller? I think not, hey?
Harley is overrated, if only because of the association with bike gangs. The average Harley rider I see is a 50-something couple attempting to recapture their Easy Rider youth.
As for Miller: Shiner >>> Miller.
Uncle Ken notes:
Stoicism, grace under pressure.
That reminds me that I occasionally say everything I needed to know, I learned from James Bond.
1. Never let them see you bleed.
2. Always have an escape route.
3. Grace under pressure.
New York isn't manly? Come to the Bronx and say that...
Nashville? Nashville?! BS. Country music is the epicenter, the hymnal creating center of "I can't live without my woman" wussiness.
Some of those ratings are wanky. While I don't doubt that LA is somewhat wussified, San Francisco is more of a manly city than LA? WTF? Unless by manly, they mean MANLY, if you know what I mean, and I think you do, not that there is anything wrong with that...
David
OK. I surrender. Texas wins. It's manlier.
I like Milwaukee, but the Texan in me is screaming. Yeah, I'm a Texan and this sissy "it's illegal" to put yard waste in the regular trash can and we have special signs in the middle of the street alerting you to the presence of the crosswalk where oh by the way there is ALSO a crossing guard is annoying the hell out of me. I mean, how stupid do you think we are?
And quit taking my money!
And no, a union is NOT manly, it is just legalized extortion.
Boo yeah, Denver, CO #5.
