Most of that shit is useless!
I would just reference the Alphabet of Manliness.
[QUOTE=Beware of Doug]
Know whom to take shit from, and whom to give it to.
Know when to bullshit, and when to call bullshit.
Know what it is to work like a dog, and to play like a dog.
Know that you can learn life lessons from assholes that good people can never begin to teach.
Know when a man and a woman should approach each other as equals, and when they should do anything but.
Know when to question why, and when to do or die.
Know how to lose it, and pick it right back up again.
Know when to deny yourself nothing, and when to deny yourself everything.
Know that to defend against a hard, mean world it is sometimes necessary to be hard and mean.
Know that any life well lived is part rat race, and that to turn your back on competing and striving and achieving is to begin to die inside.

Other than the OP and what **Silenus[?b] posted a man needs to know:
You got to know when to hold them,
Know when to fold them
Know when to walk away
Know when to run…
Another woman checking in. Of the list, I don’t know how to or never tried #1, 4, 8, 19, and 22.
Not bad I guess.
[QUOTE=sinjin]
Dang I can do all the things on the original list, and I drive a stick. Do I have to turn in my girl card.

No!
You need to get yourself a really big baseball bat to beat off the suitors!!
[QUOTE=Miss Woodhouse]
Tokyo Player I believe the list means frame a wall with 2x4s, not hang frames. With that meaning, I fail to see the connection between #5 and #4.
[/QUOTE]
If you have done the crime, but don’t want to do the time, who better to frame than the wall? What’s it going to say, it wasn’t there at the time? Photoshop the evidence in.
Duh.

[old, old joke]How do real men give women orgasms?
Real men don’t care.[/old, old joke]
Woo, I can do 8 of those, what do I win? (only the 8 techie type ones. I try not to go outside, and I barely know where the gas goes in a car, let alone where the heck a radiator hose is)
I can do nearly everything on that list (a few items I’d be learning to do as I go, but I’m pretty sure I’d get them), except the one about the rifle.
But it’s a really dumb list. ‘Retouch digital photos’? -Yes, I can do it. No, it’s not essential.
[QUOTE=Lord Il Palazzo]
Seriously, I think this list is full of it. Retouch digital photos? Mix concrete? Extend your wireless network? Who comes up with this stuff?
[/QUOTE]
People who can do those things, and think they’re special.
Feed, change, and bathe an infant.
[QUOTE=danceswithcats]
Must specify. Three on the tree, three, four, five, or six on the floor, or 5 speed with a hi-low rear, or a full blown Fuller Roadranger? Left out twin-stick Brockways. They are an evil creation.
[/QUOTE]
I guess I fail, because I’ve never driven the twin-stick. I do remember the split 5 speed, or “working 4th and 5th”.
I did score 100% on the OP list.
[QUOTE=Walloon]
Feed, change, and bathe an infant.
[/QUOTE]
I tried feeding an infant once, but I just ended up with really sore nipples.
I don’t know how those women do it.
I can do/have done almost all of those things, but I’d rather not. I detest toil.
‘Patch’ a radiator hose?
:dubious:
[QUOTE=Kalhoun]
because he likes to do the torque wrench!
[/QUOTE]
This is some sort of code, right? 
That ain’t such a useful list. I dunno. What would make me feel more satisfied as a man… patching a radiator hose (a simple question of duct tape) or knowing how to move from cowgirl to reverse cowgirl to doggie style without her falling off? Would I rather know how to setup my computer to make a mirrored backup (it’s a cinch, really) or make the perfect dry vodka martini? Maybe I’m a different kind of man, but I’ll pay one of the other kinds of men $5 to bleed my brakes and fillet my fish while I give a clinic on how to undo a bra with one hand.
I’m astonished that the only skill in the OP’s list that touches on food preparation is “knowing how to fillet a fish.”
Cooking, and presenting, an edible, and appetizing meal seems much more important to me than being able to set up HDTV. (Which I’m never going to do, since I doubt I’ll ever be able to afford one.)
Being able to admit to fault, hopefully graciously, should also be on that list.

Not this back yard mechanic. I’d replace it.
Huh. I rent, and I don’t own a car. That knocks me off of most of those items. I’m pretty sure if I tried framing a wall in my apartment, my landlord would have something to say about it.
Here’s my list:
- Own a penis.

Then you leave out a lot of our transbrothers! How about:
- Identify as male.
Unhook a bra should be number one.
