Man caves
 

ugh. Only worse term is "manctuary."

But--cool idea if you're not the smoking jacket and den type. They had a tv show about 'em--but they only redid one cave that I could see and kept rerunning that show.

Anyway, here are some pics. You guys got one to share?

Cloud I'm not being a hater here. And I'm not criticising your thread.
But seriously:
Grow up and get some balls and reclaim it then.
Funny. Women don't get one of those. And don't anyone dare say it's every room! Can you imagine how (rightfully) annoyed men would be if women demanded a pampering room to which no man was allowed and the men had to look after the kids when she fancied going in there?
Okay, for me it would be my own bathroom - soundproofed so I couldn't hear HM playing the guitar and singing at the top of his voice, oh and he couldn't hear me having a poo (SUCH thin walls!) with a bookcase, a chaise longue and a mini-bar cum cheese fridge.

Please don't let my grumpy attitude stop any Dwellar posting their Man Cave/ Manctuary. Cellar men are real men, so I expect they're worth seeing rather than self indulgent hidey holes :)

women have them/want them, too, SG. Sometimes it's the living room or kitchen. If they're lucky they have a "craft" or "sewing" room.

Everyone needs room for their hobbies.

You could say the garage is Mr. Clod's man-cave, I guess, in that it's full of all his tools and crap, and I pretty much avoid going out there unless there's a truly dire need. But he honestly doesn't go out there much, either. Certainly not to relax.

put a tv and a beer frig in there and he's good to go.

I'm probably coming at this the wrong way because British houses are so much smaller. A man who insists on a hobby room here would usually be taking space meant as a dining room, a study, a garage or a bedroom.

As you were :)

My man cave consists of about 10 square feet of the top of my computer desk, and four square feet of night table by my bed. The rest belongs to the Mrs. :-)

and hey--you can all put compact flourescent lights in them!

My husband has a computer, stereo and beer fridge in our garage, if there was a bathroom and a bed, he'd live there

ya know why women's feet are smaller than men's? so they can stand closer to the stove.

we have an adult cave. it's co ed.

It's dark, dank and nasty and I spent most of my time here. Internet, cable TV, beverage*, etc**. The lights dim and I aim at foes in Battlefield 2. Sometimes the girls are watching American Idol or something like that and I resort to headphones.

*beverages from greater to lesser probability: ice water, ice water with a little lemon and sugar, fresh ground/brewed coffee, milk, beer, vodak drink, wine, tea, orange juice

**phone charger, fan, candle, bookcases, dog bowls, dead electronics, obsolete live electronics, DVDs, dank, and nasty.

I don't need one. I don't have to be in a different room to be on a different planet.

(I've heard "man cave"--dopy. "Manctuary" is just ridiculous.)

Good.

At least now I know I'm not the only one.

I rent a 5 room house with 2200 square feet. the rear right room is my Man cave. No, it's not a bad term, it's an excellent term.

No estrogen allowed. My mac, my books, my gear, gadgets, and weird projects. My space. The only room in the house that Houshold Six can't tell me how to keep.
