    If you have to ask, you never had it.


    The idea of man card is the dumbest chit ever.

    How the hell did your anterior deltoids get so big?

    lol thanks dude!

    Got it.

    I can keep the card as long as

    1) I don't sing along (noticeably).

    2) I don't buy a t-shirt or a poster

    3) I don't tell all my friends about it at work.


    But I'll never be able to get deltoids like jdm_taco if I go.

    I think I can handle that trade-off.

    I once went to an Nsync concert with my girlfriends when I was 23, and I lied and told people I was there with my little sister, who must be around somewhere. I am an only child. :)

    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.
    This concerns me somewhat but I'm willing to let it go this time.

    If the only reason you are going is to supervise and escort your daughter, you're good to go; you're just being a good daddy. If you enjoy yourself and Taylor Swift music...then, yes, you must return your man card. I'm sorry but that violates the man card rules--especially if you're carrying a murse.

    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:

    LOL, I second this. My dad introduced me to lot of great music I still listen to -- Elvis Costello, Tom Waits, David Bowie. I'm glad he rescued me from my Echo and the Bunnymen phase...

    Actually, JDM_taco I want to know that too! Nice arms! :drinker:

    Dad card trumps man card 1000%

    I happy to say I play with my little ponys and dollys with my little girl. I would do it in front of my buddies too. Its part of being a dad and I love it.

    I think she is hot in a year old filly mixed with golden retriever kind of way.

    You may lose your man card, but you get to keep your dad card, and that's more important. Good job!

    I think taking your daughter is just a despicable excuse so you can go and think lecherous thoughts about TS without being seen as a pervert, so no, you don't lose your man card, in fact you get a man medal for being inventive and making women go "Ah, what a good Dad he is" :laugh: I wish I had an 18 year old daughter................... but I have to put up with watching young ladies like TS on TV whilst making disparaging comments like "Look at that, what is modern music coming to..." or "What on earth is she wearing, totally disgusting, you can see right up her....." to throw people off the scent. :blushing:

    Trade in the man card for a "real man" card. It's for your little girl. Dude, it's all good.

    I raised three girls. I've been to concerts so "sweet" I got cavities just buying the tickets. But, I wouldn't have given up the experience for anything.

    I think they double your man points and send you a 6-pack of beer and some beef jerky.
