    What a fucking pansy - who ever heard of a real man having a work laptop. Personally, I commute on the subway every day with my employer assigned server mainframe.

    Some men buy big trucks for the same reason some men buy sports cars or super cars, expensive luxury cars or classic cars. They’re signifiers. They signify a man’s masculinity and status, depending on how masculinity is defined in their culture. In some cultures, a big, powerful truck represents masculinity, in other cultures, where masculinity is more about wealth and class, it can be represented by a very expensive car. Cars have been used as signifiers by men pretty much from the beginning.

    Buying a car is so beta. Be an alpha and power your own vehicle with your own muscles.
