Many men are stunned when asked about gift wishes. Especially in the older generation.

Beard oil. Chilling sticks for beer glasses. Steak knife with wooden handle. Magnetic bracelet for screws and nails. Shower gel in a motor oil bottle. Whiskey crystal glass. Easy-care “male plant”. Football fan chappli. Carved grill gloves. Sock. These are the gift tips for men that will hit the internet and our mailboxes this December. If you want to give something to a man for Christmas – his father, his brother, his father-in-law, his husband – you need to have something I can trust. I’m completely suspended in the air. It is difficult to give gifts to men.

The recommendations already show this, their message is clear: Man is a pathetic creature. If you want to make him happy, you should turn to the category of the horny buffalo who likes to spend his evenings with his friends in the sports bar or hobby cellar, coming only to order himself a glass of whiskey. in his worn leather chair. Women’s situation is better.

“Men have a hard time”

Tips for them prevent engraving. These are sensual items like an alpaca wool blanket, a vintage gold chain, a Berber rug, a wellness trip to the mountains, the hottest novel of the year, or a museum pass. The consumer industry also recognizes that women are fascinating people. I am interested in various things. Aesthetic. You don’t even have to come to them with nonsense like cocktail kits or beer mugs with selfie prints on them; These will eventually end up in the garbage bag.

Of course, advertisements want us to believe things that have little to do with reality. Men are not one-dimensional and dull. But some seem to. Herbert Grönemeyer sang it like this in his 1984 song “Men”: “Men have it tough, take it easy / Hard on the outside, so soft on the inside.” The guy’s a hard-core nut when it comes to Christmas. What do you want it for? Even this question makes some people sweat. Especially old people. Including the kind who shrugs when asked about their grandchildren. Or always give the same answer: I have everything. I don’t need anything. The winking classic: my peace. Some gentlemen look featureless.

Women’s issue!

It is easier with children and women. Over the year they drop sentences, signal sentences!: “Wow, I like this! I’ve always wanted something like this!” Men are less likely to say this. If you ask him about a concert, a match, a meeting with friends, what it was like, he will answer: “Good, why do you think that?” These are symptoms of the problem that Grönemeyer summarizes: “As a child, you are already ready to be a man.” Generations of men have felt that a real man does not show what is on his mind, does not cry because he is strong. Emotions – they are not for men. Those that are specifically for the beautiful, those that are for the beautiful in general for – women’s clothing!For gays only!

Well, admittedly: I’m exaggerating. A lot is changing right now. A new generation of men is coming. On December 1st, the first of the 24 packages of the advent calendar sat on my kitchen table. Handmade. My loved one had originally prepared an umbrella. He noticed that I often ran in the rain without me because I lost everyone. Of course it didn’t stay with me for long either, I left it on the tram the same day! One thing’s for sure: That man had two dozen ideas for gifts for me. On the other hand, embarrassingly, I Googled it first.
