I thought this would be more constructive than the previous posters post.

1. Playing video games.
2. Watching movies.
3. Racing cars*
4. "Pimping" cars*
5. ....I guess there's really only 4.


*Hobby might be appealing to women of certain American sub-cultures.

I think the fifth one should be Airsoft or paintballing.

Agreed, and I know plenty who love to go paintballing, hunting, and racing so yeah. No point to this thread IMO.

Agreed.
Sure, you'll never get a plastic-barbie type girl with those hobbies.
But not ALL girls are like that.
Good to see the stereotypes are still flowing freely.

I didn't say girls don't like watching movies. I said it was a hobby that generally doesn't impress them.

Perhaps to a handful of woman. However due to the large percentage of single men on dating sites who list watching movies as their hobby, I am not convinced that most women consider it an impressive hobby.

Heres another hobby that isnt impressive:
Playing solitaire(my mum has been doing it for years on the computer and I dont know why she is still interested in playing).


Another hobby that isnt impressive for most women is programing at the computer. Apparently there are some people that do it as a hobby.


ps: maybe the watching movies should be swapped to watching james bond/indiana jones/other movies aimed towards males.

Dont worry Im also a minority here, I ejoy watching romantic comedies and I hate most adventure films(luckily after twilight I stopped reading "romantic" novels which is probably an improvement).

Most of us support neurodiversity and I dont see how someone that supports that expects another person to be a stereotypical male/female

I would be very impressed with a man who had knitting as his hobby!

very tiny print: as long as he wasn't better at it than me

As for loitering, it depends on the kind of loitering! I love to people watch. That's a kind of loitering, right? :wink:

You could talk to my ex-wife and probably round out your list with hundreds more...
