The "modern man" stereotype is unsettling at best, but it's popular.



IMO many modern women can't comprehend or respect a man who "knows how to do stuff."



If you're a 'successful modern man' you can afford to pay for someone else to do the stuff.



the time where a man knew how to fix $chit is over.



I did a front brake job on Ms. Gogar's Panamera for (All Pelican )cost + a few hours of my time and saved $750+ from her favorite stealership and somehow I lost relationship points for not being able to throw money down the rat-hole.



Maybe my beard isn't long enough or something.
Thuy LOVES it when I'm able to fix something and save us some $$$. Recently they AC control went out on her Van and the stealer wanted 2k plus labor. I fixed it 30mins with a $75 part from the salvage. She raves about it and all her friends think it's awesome because their men can't fix ****!
