Mancavage!!!

[Man SoloParticipant 111]

I´ve read a few good descriptions of some mancaves here on MGTOW.com and it has inspired me to rid my apartment of all female vestiges – first to go were the pink towels in HER bathroon, second was lilac paint in the bedroom, second was floral bed sheets, third was a big house plant, now occupied by a big-ass subwoofer. My goal is to create the ultimate mancave. Any hints, tips, tricks??? What have you guys got (in mind)?

You’re on the right track. Get rid of anything you didn’t choose and replace it with something that reflects your tastes and interests.

But please stop calling it a “man-cave”. We are not animals who collect bones and sleep in piles of our own s~~~ (not most of us, at least). A man cave is a room that a woman *allows* what’s left of a man to have in the house that he is almost certainly paying for to keep his things in before she manages to have them destroyed so that she doesn’t have to see them in the rest of the house.

What you’re talking about is a masculine home. A home that is designed by and for you and your needs. Just follow your gut and you’ll know what to do.

As for me, I recommend picking an era to use as a theme… something you relate to. I’m a mid-mod and tiki fan myself so my place is mostly mid-century modern style furnishings, a solid bar and a touch of tiki here and there. But if you’re into the 80s and fighter jets or the 20s and tommy guns, by all f~~~ing means, turn your pad into a top gun trophy room or a speakeasy.

Or just drive the motorcycle through the front door and disassemble it in the middle of the living room. Who’s gonna say s~~~ to you? You’re a man. Live how the f~~~ you want.

Your entire house is yours to do with as you please.
Make it awesome!
Man caves are an allotment given to a man by a woman. .
F~~~ that!
Have fun designing your place! !!

F~~~ Man Caves.

I have a man house.

The skulls are resin casts. Real ones would be in the 10,000 range.
Say hello to one of my bookshelf decorations.

Say hello to my desk buddy.

My living room / dining room is dominated by my computer rig’s. F~~~ fluffy frilly pillows with couches you never sit in.

I have one wall dedicated to my sword collection. Nothing old but all are fully functional, real replicas made from full tang heat treated carbon steel.

Hoplite sword
Gladius
Celtic sword
Medieval Short sword
Scottish claymore (big f~~~er)

I also have my well cared for M1-Garand hanging on its mount on the wall in my bedroom. My Remington 870 shotgun is on a mount next to my bed out of sight.

Friend of mine brought over his son one time to watch a Mets game out of reach from his wife and his son was wide eyed like he had died and gone to heaven. His father said the boy commented later “How the hell does he have such cool s~~~ and your stuff is all in the basement.” I spewed beer on that one.

It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion, it is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning; it is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

Chir, your skull casts are things of beauty!

Is HER still living in the apartment?

Ok. Then do it.

Have a Megalodon tooth as well. Have that under glass.

I like the prehistoric artifacts because it reminds me to be humble in the face of the powerful creatures that existed before us.

I like darker colors for walls. Weapons, games, posters of movies from your youth…

Man Solo, great name, great post, thanks!

Good point Doc Fenderson. I´d always viewed the word mancave in a positive light, most men do, thinking that it´s somehow empowering to have just one room all to yourself – in your own home! hahaha. Not anymore. Thanks for the heads up!

Just had a look at some tiki decor on google – looks awesome! I’m a surfer and a rocker so I’ll probably end up with guitars and surf pictures dotted around the place. You’ve got me thinking about a tiki bar area tho…good call.

No, while we were together she insisted on separate bathrooms. I can’t remember ever having a shower with her. Once I took her to a nice country retreat with a hot tub. I had trouble persuading to get in it with me. Eventually she did but was wearing a pair of lycra shorts and lycra top that wouldn’t come off. Sex was only ever in total darkness. This was just one of her many disorders.

Thanks Joe Bauers.

Yeah I need to darken my place up. This place is too colourful – looks rubbish.

Clear a space to work on motorcycles in the living room.

Or put a big screen television in the garage.

Either works.

If in doubt, do both.

[Man SoloParticipant 111]

Thanks Sidecar. Music is my thing. My house is fast becoming a deposit for stage equipment. I bought a huge 650W JBL subwoofer at the weekend. I tested it in the living room with a 16 channel mixing desk and another 600W JBL 12″ speaker. I liked the sound so much that I just left it there all awkward and s~~~, wires all over the place, taking up half the floor space next to the TV. If I had a woman in the house she’d throw a fit. Fortunately that isn’t the case 🙂

What would look good in a man cave with a bar or man’s garage would be a vintage gas pump with either SHELL or Mobile logos on the top. My opinion.

Meat, piles upon piles of meat!

I am a fan of Doctor Who of old, James Bond before they turned him into a weeping mess, and football. I have my area surrounded by things like that. A few posters of guitar things, pulp fiction and my wall football ranking chart (complete with miniture helmets that are placed to show ranking).

Do not underestimate the value of a beer fridge. A small fridge for the beer that gets colder and saves energy/money, from trying to make a full size fridge that cold.

I went with a 73″ television, which to my joy, every woman detests. Women get sickened by us men buying for ourselves, ha!

[Black butte porterParticipant 433]

Lilac walls. My god. I painted mine brown. Going to display Lego on the fireplace mantel too. I bought the BTTF delorean and ecto1 sets just because I wanted them. And that is the fun part. Who’s going to say no? Personally I don’t think I could ever live with a woman again. Having YOUR space is awesome.

I want to shove Ms. Piggy in a woodchipper. No quote. That's all.

The ideal man cave for a mgtow is his entire house.

If you still got the ball and chain, I do feel sorry for you, as the ma’am cave is 10x larger than your man cave.
