Do I lose my man card if I go to a Taylor Swift concert?

What about if I'm taking my 14 year old daughter, do I then get to keep it?

If so, but I enjoy the concert, do I have to give it back again?


With the concert this Friday, I'm really concerned I'm going to be emasculated for the weekend. And I had such big plans with the wife. Oh, the troubles of a first world middle aged man...

Carry on.

    Keep the man card. You are being a great Dad to your daughter and that is awesome. And I would think at 14, she is beyond polishing your fingernails, putting makeup on you, and/or putting hair ribbons in your hair, so be grateful. :wink:

    I saw a guy on the train this morning with bright yellow nail polish on his toenails. I have to assume he has a daughter, because other than that he looked completely normal.

    Nope. In fact I think you get to upgrade your man card for taking your daughter to a T-Swift concert. :drinker:

    ^ This.

    When I was younger my dad took me to a Spice Girls concert. We still talk about it.*




    *Although usually it's about how awesome it was being one of the only men around all the hot moms

    Dads who do stuff like this with their daughters are beyond cards. You've levelled up.

    It depends on the post-concert reaction.

    Do you plan on spending the next day driving your friends insane as you hum "I just wanna know you, wanna know you, know you, better now" all over the golf course?

    Do you plan on shouting "I knew you were trouble when you walked in" every time someone enters the living room?

    Is your wife going to ask you to take out the trash and you get upset and tell her that you're "never, ever, ever" going to do so?

    If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, hand it over now. Don't even wait for the concert.

    You are definitely a good dad and do not lose your man card; that said, could you do a better job of teaching your daughter what good music is? :laugh:

    Not relevant. Even if she did have friends her age, and I assume she does, having father-daughter time is a very, VERY good thing.
