Men and Flowers

[IrradiatedFish]

I'd certainly think it to be UNUSUAL, but I'd also be very happy to receive a gift.

They're pretty and they smell nice. So long as you're not allergic and it might give you some cheer, I don't see why not.

To all those people who say that it isn't a suitable gift: Why care what anybody else thinks if it works for you?

I'm not much of a flowers guy because it's hard to find colours I like (blues/purples - most local flora tend to be sunnier colours) and I don't have a great sense of smell, but I'm not going to pretend I don't enjoy something just because there's a stigma of it not being cool.

If it works for someone and you know it, that's fine. If I received flowers as a gift though, I'd try to enjoy it, but honestly I would just be confused as to what to do with them.

Hear hear! As a photographer, I enjoy every chance I get to appreciate some natural beauty. It would be a unexpected but kind gesture.

I could care less but I doubt those flowers would last a day with me. So I would say I wouldn't due to the risk she would yell at me for not taking care of them...

If its pretty and it smells good.

Or get one of those nice steel roses. They are beautiful, and they smell nice for a whole year. Just add 2 drops of rose oil in the center.

My boyfriend brought his best friend flowers for his birthday so I guess some men do like them as gifts !

I would suggest putting them in water and placing them on your windowsill so they get plenty of sun.

Keep them healthy and they're a treat for your eyes and a natural air freshener.

 

[SageRuffin]

What kind of flowers are we talking about?

 

[AbsoluteVirtue18]

As long as they're blue, I don't mind.

 

[Nouw]

It's the thought that counts.

Just give me one of these please

Spoiler: It's my pet

It Bites. CHOMP!

 

[bak00777]

i dont like flowers, i dont think they smell good, and i think they look bad, because they die fast.

 

[Mr.Pandah]

No. I'm a guy. Give me a pack of Beef Jerky instead.

 

[Zombus]

Any gift would be appreciated as a show of affection but flowers as a gift show me you don't actually know what I like.

 

[runnerbelow]

If they were Chrysanthemums then I could give them an actual use... Like killing all the red ants attacking my house. Other wise, flowers... I don't see the point in giving them to a guy, all we do is eat the tops off.

 

[Capt. Crankypants]

Dying plants. Great.
Well, two sides of a coin, recieving flowers from someone you're already dating is kinda meh (as a boy), buuut, if you were to recieve them from a lady friend you didnt know very well, you'd feel flattered and very nicely towards her

 

[Elric Randall]

I think being broke has more to do with my answer than me being a man, but I wouldn't want flowers unless it's some kind of edible arrangement. >.>

If my gut wasn't chewing me out for not asking for food, I bet flowers would be nice. =)

 

[Not-here-anymore]

I just like gifts, pretty much regardless of what they are. Give me a piece of paper on which you've written the word 'gift', and I'll probably be happy with it. Flowers have the added advantage of looking nice.

 

[KefkaCultist]

Well if I had a girlfriend who gave me flowers I'd probably laugh a little and do all the romantic stuff, but yeah... not really a guy thing

 

[MegaManOfNumbers]

I wouldn't know, people fucking hate me.
