75 Skills Every Guy Should Master

Esquire just put up a great collections of things every guy should know. There's a lot of good stuff -- some of it pretty old-school, but still spot on. Here are a few of my favorites:
  • give advice that matters in one sentence (#1)
  • show respect without being a suck-up (#12)
  • throw a punch (#13)
  • approach a woman out of his league (#19)
  • be loyal (#23)
  • jump-start a car (without drama) (#35)
  • step into a job no-one wants to do (#52)
  • shake hands (#70)
  • iron a shirt (#71)
  • sometimes, kick some ass (#53)
There's many more (feel free to add your own). Read the whole thing here.
