ots of times, females are confused on what to get a guy for Christmas. This is why a bro, like myself, came up with this comprehensive list of 5 gifts "us guys" would probably like. Hopefully this leads you ladies towards a direction on somewhere you could go to for Christmas this year:

1. Exotic Meats

Let us be honest, us guys like meat. We are carnivores for almost any non-domesticated animal on four legs. Getting us a meat crate isn't a gift most of us would say no to. It is also definitely something memorable. Imagine you expecting your girl to probably get a card or something and it is welcomed by a bunch of jerky and a meat crate. Sites like ManCrates sell items like these all the time, and if you wanted to save money you can get a big basket and pick different jerky or meat at farmer's markets.

2. Gaming Emulator/Handheld

Lots of guys such as myself, love portable gaming emulators or things such as a portable Sega or NES. Now since lots of these consoles are being released on sites like Amazon for the nostalgic value, it would be nice to play some of our childhood plug and play games in our hands. Plus the memories it would bring would definitely make this gift something a guy would probably remember. Portable arcade emulators or open source micro-consoles are also good too.

3. A Game Table

My mother got a full size ping pong table, an Air Hockey Table, and a Wooden Crafted Foosball table all for under $100 before. If you use sites like Craiglist, Facebook Merchant or just go to garage sales, you can probably find a table for around $20 to $40. You would just need some help moving it. Anyone can just pay a lot to order a new one online but you can get one that looks new, pay literally a tenth of the price and surprise your guy just by having you and maybe your dad or someone help move it. Just be careful when buying stuff with strangers, and always accompany yourself with someone when using sites like Craiglist.

4. Any novelty item that may involve beer

Usually this is something that doesn't involve effort. It can be a handcrafted beer mug, a beer canon, a custom beer tap, or even a novelty game. Just make sure the age range is appropriate and the gift is nice for the person you are giving it to. This is usually a gift given to a guy either in his early 20s or late 30s.

5. Attention

Lots of us complain all women want is attention, but get this, we also want attention, but in a different way. Lots of times, the things we do are taken for granted. For example, one time, I worked at 3 a.m. just so I can spend some time sitting down and talking to a girl I liked. She never knew about things like that, and always argued that I did nothing.A different girl before this one, I spent nine hours editing and creating a special video for her birthday, and she acted like it was no big deal. Lots of times, many guys like myself end up single or relationships are destroyed is because we end up being unappreciated or undervalued for the small or sometimes big things we do that go unnoticed.Sometimes the biggest gift at all isn't something monetary, but rather righteously caring about the person, a simple I love you, and spending some special time outside with that said person.That can be even more remembered than exotic meats.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
