8 things to master before you’re 30
Before you get all huffy and emasculated (“Why is a girl giving advice on a men’s Web site? On how to be a man?! WAH! WAH!”), let me give you a behind-the-scenes look on how this list was concocted1: eleven guys, three girls, ranging in age from twenty-two to fifty-one, all consuming cold beverages2 on a Sunday afternoon. Each point was discussed, dissected3, nodded at proudly, and amended5 with stories—including one of a man-boy shitting the couch. But that tale is for another article. So go ahead, call me sexist for being a kind, blonde soul and doling6 out some advice. Or just jerk off to a picture of the chicks’ shiny tits in the sidebar, release some pent-up rage, and hear me out. The most popular points of what to know before you’ve reached the big 3-0.
