Everyone has a junk drawer.

[allmost]

A man drawer? LOL!

[Mark]

But what if it is in California? Man’s drawer could be wife’s drawer. So complicated!

[Grizzled Bear]

I have a room with three full book shelves, an ancient stereo with “two man lift” speakers and my guitars and amps. I also have the basement for my exercise equipment.

The garage is neutral territory out of necessity.

I fought long and hard and will not give up one inch of territory!

[50cal Smokepole]

Ummm, I call mine the 'garage'.
Stop bothering me woman -- can't you see I'm working here? [burrrp]

A typical American man drawer.

[dayglored]

Oh God, that article nailed me to the F'ing wall. That is EXACTLY what I have in my "man drawer". The keys, the (dead, useless) mobile phones and chargers, the string, the menus.

This guy lives in my house. He has to, to know me that well.

[Steely Tom]

Yes. I have been forced to create one of these, and to move it periodically, to keep it's contents safe. In it are such things as (pencil) erasers, mechanical pencils, butane lighters, blank labels, scotch-guard scrubbing sponges, light bulbs, dental floss dispensers, Sharpie felt-tip pens with their caps still on, ChapStiks, blank CD-ROMs and CD-ROM envelopes, and other things that if left around where wife and kiddies can find them will be used once and then forgotten so that when I need them they will be gone/dry/otherwise ruined.

An essential line contained in the original article but 'curiously' omitted here  :-)

Send us pictures of YOUR man drawers to features@the-sun.co.uk and we'll print the best

A FReeper 'man-drawer' pic is just what a Brit tabloid needs  :-)

One thing they definately do not have is a firearm. There government does not allow it. Too manly,individualistic and freedom defending for the Englishman. Sad.

[Mr. Mojo]

Typical Brit “man” drawer — no firearms or knives.

The man drawer is the place you put pocket parts.

Now I have to define “pocket parts”.

When you assemble something, like a bike, or furnature, or a sink, you always have parts left over.

Every man knows that the manufacturers put extra parts in the box in case you lose some of them. Every woman knows that the extra parts are left over because you are inept, and did not assemble it correctly. The truth probably lies somewhere in the middle.

At any rate, these parts are “pocket parts”, because you put them in your pocket so as to not alarm the female supervisor in your life. Then a few days later, you slip them into the man drawer.

I don't have a man.

But I have several of those drawers.

There's something horribly wrong with that.

[irishtenor]

Man drawers? Heck, I have a man shed. 12X36, and crammed to the rafters!

[LongElegantLegs]

we will go: “Fabulous. We should immediately go to Corfu and buy milk.”

If my man ever said 'Fabulous' or instructed me to 'go buy milk immediately', I would pull the Glock out of my woman drawer and beat him with it.

[wastedyears]

Why only one? I have six

[MarineBrat]

Man-drawer shman-drawer! A man needs a garage or a workshop with an honest to God roll away toolbox.

[purpleraine]

my man

[paristwelve]

Truly a slow news day.

[BluH2o]

Except for the radiator key the author has my my man drawer nailed. Actually I have more than one drawer.
