Want To Get Macho? Move To Ohio

(AP)  Guys have a reason to high-five in several Ohio cities, named some of the manliest places in America.

A new ranking says Cincinnati, Columbus and Toledo make the top 10 for manliness based on criteria such as the number of major league sports teams, popularity of tools and hardware and frequency of monster truck rallies.

Nashville, Tenn., comes out on top in the study by Sperling's BestPlaces and commissioned as part of a promotion for Combos snacks made by Mars Snackfood US.

Charlotte, N.C., is second, followed by Oklahoma City and then fourth-place Cincinnati. Columbus is seventh and Toledo 10th.

Dayton is manly enough for 15th and Cleveland ranks No. 19.

New York City finished last out of 50 major U.S. metropolitan areas.

Ever notice the overly-macho men have something to hide? Perhaps it's pink lace panties under their construction pants! Too macho or too fem can stay in Ohio....

As usual, the comments are as much, or more, insightful than the original story


Some interesting definitions about what it means to be a Man

You follow the one you think is best

But as for me and my house

Think we'll stick with the one by Rudyard Kipling in " If "

Rather than the big one hitting California, nature is just trying to wash the scum from the southeastern states.

dongo3: still stuck in 1950's south carolina?

It's wrong not to let the "fellas" in from California. They can't leave right now anyway because they're waiting to see if the liberal court is going to over turn what the voters want and let them live as man and man. I'm still waiting for the big one to hit California. One can only dream.
