Welcome to the 6th Manival!
I’m excited to be hosting this week’s Manival. Thanks to Brett, from The Art Of Manliness, for starting the Manival and for letting me host it this week.
I was surprised with the amount of submissions for this week’s event. It’s encourging to me to know that there is a wealth of manformation out there (<-- yes, I just made that up) and I’m glad to be a humble part of that.
Without further ado…I present the 6th Manival!
