this is one of the r/malelivingspace posts of all time
Less empty = more thing
less fem = man thing
The obvious conclusion here, is a room brimming with dildos
Nothing manlier than being gay? HMMMMMM
I know several gay people WAY manlier than i. Myself being a cis hetro male.
Add some dildos to the place. Nothing is more manly than thick, juicy dicks. It’s sure to be a conversation-starter, too!
Just get one queen size.
McQueen size
Why is he Asian?
Made in china
What this guy needs is obviously a second giant skull.
Yes, but also many more skulls of all sizes, just strewn around the place, he’ll also need more shelves and things to put all the new skulls on them.
waifu pillow and film replica swords mounted to the wall
toss everything but the cat and the skull. everything you think of adding to the space, ask yourself ‘is this in service of the skull? is this in service of the cat?’
if neither, don’t add it. rinse & repeat until it looks like a Spirit Halloween to address the emptiness of the space (but know now, it won’t fix the emptiness of your soul)
Agreed. Cat and skull are doing all the heavy lifting here.
AROO, BROTHER, GET A MF’IN HOG IN THERE. CRANK THAT MF’ER ANY TIME A BROTHER STARTS THINKING UR FEMININE (not that there’s anything wrong with expressing femininity).
Put a pentagram above the bed and it’s done.
Well obviously you get rid of the skull. That skull could be male or female. 50/50 removing it decreases femininity of the room.
That just feels like some DnD
Add some dirty dishes on the floor. A bowl of spaghetti and an empty can of beer is a easy and masculine touch you can use
The way you decrease both the emptiness and femininity of this space is to get rid of all the retail mall goth shit, rev up the table saw and make some actual furniture.
If you’re committed to the black and red aesthetic go with ebonized white oak and glazed black cherry. I’d lean toward the American Craftsman/Mission style, stylish within practicality and built to last, and most importantly would look absolutely stupid in distressed chalk paint.
There’s a stereotype that men don’t understand bed frames, somebody already in this comment section has posted a bare air mattress on the floor. The other extreme is the fuckateria table on display in the original post. Looks like a futon mat on plywood? Go to a mattress store and buy something that isn’t marked down. As for a bed frame, simplicity is the order of the day. No footboard, if you go with a headboard make it functional. Should be low enough to sit down on, a bed you climb up on is college kid shit.
A taller dresser is more masculine, compared to a woman’s dressing table.
A simple rocking chair is surprisingly useful, serves as a dressing rack.
You’ll probably want three levels of lighting, mood lighting, reading lighting and cleaning lighting. Built-in overhead lights will serve as the latter.
Avoid any urge to set dress. This isn’t a film set, you don’t have to intentionally clutter tabletops and shelves with shit. Live a life and things to put there will happen to you. For the love of fuck don’t decorate with books you want people to think you read.
Ron Swanson, is that you?
Obviously needs more skulls
Replace the white closet frame and doors with natural wood. Get rid of that skull. Replace it with a taxidermy black bear. Hang a sword above the closet doors. A really goofy looking one from the mall. Unmake the bed. Throw some Cheetos on the floor.
He has to be careful to not get a feminine sword like a rapier or a khopesh
You’re missing the pile of crusty socks.
Pile of crusty socks? This is an adult. There should just be a couple of rigid towels.
The torturing rack in the corner really ties the room together
Paint the walls with Singularity Black. Cover up the colour of capitalization on human rights.
