Someone prefers to give original presents, someone prefers business ones, and some women prefer to make them with their own hands. If you are one of those who believe that gifts should be exceptionally useful and not lie idle on the shelf, then this collection is for you.
Stand for a laptop
The phrase "You sit at the computer all day!" it sounds less and less like a reproach - in the company of gadgets, almost every person spends a huge amount of time. Someone works, someone plays games, and someone relaxes and watches TV shows. If your man is just one of those who does not part with a laptop, he will definitely be delighted with a convenient multifunctional stand. It can be cooling, with a soft bottom or with a built-in mouse pad and mobile phone stand.
Electronic book
A great gift for those who love to read, who have to do it for work or school, and those who spend a lot of time in lines. For a brother or boyfriend, you can take an advanced e-book with the ability to watch photos, videos and surf the Internet via wi-fi. It is better for a more adult - and even more elderly - man to give simple model with a good screen, backlight and font enlargement function.
Annual supply of socks
Finding a pair of socks in the morning is a real challenge! Either they come across exceptionally different, or they are frayed or even full of holes. You can solve this problem for at least the next 365 days with the help of an annual set of socks. In a special case, a man is waiting for several dozens of absolutely identical socks, and you can choose their color and number of pairs yourself.
Wire organizer
Looking for an inexpensive yet useful gift? Give your man a cable and wire organizer that will help you keep all the cords you need and don't need at the moment in order. Most of these organizers are the following types: rubber clip for several cables, plastic or wooden block with separators, small magnetic design.
Board with containers
The idea that men can't cook and don't even want to go near the kitchen is a real myth. No wonder they say that it is from men that the best cooks are obtained! You can please a fan of cooking with the help of a special cutting board with containers. The thing is very convenient: in the drawers under the board, you can both lay out chopped food and throw off waste that only interferes on the surface. Another plus of such containers is that when shifting to a frying pan, into a saucepan, or a bowl, not a piece will fall on the floor.
Portable speaker
Who doesn't love good music? And good music sounding from a high-quality speaker is doubly beautiful. That is why the wireless portable speaker will impress any music lover. For those who like to sing in the shower, you can choose a waterproof Bluetooth model, and even a professional musician will appreciate the famous Marshall speaker.

As for “your” men, study them throughout the year, listen carefully to what they tell you. Perhaps you will hear what they would like to purchase, but it doesn’t work out in any way (there is no material opportunity or time to search for the desired thing, or it simply refers to those that “you will never buy yourself”).

9th place
Usually on Defender of the Fatherland Day, alcohol consistently ranks third among gifts after socks and razors. But just handing drinks is no longer so relevant. The girl under the nickname iren_moren decided to “mock” her man a little by locking a bottle of whiskey in a cage:

1st place
Well, and the leader of our top 10. The main trend this year is what a huge number of women have tried so diligently to make - a sock tank:
Ladies, there is very little time left until February 23 and it's time to actively start preparing for this holiday. Every year before us, girls, rises complex issue"How to please and surprise your loved one?". I don’t know how anyone, but I immediately start sorting out what he has run out or is running out of: razor blades, shaving gel, perfume, something in the car, and so on. But then it turns out that the most simple and obvious gifts, the men brought in the "black list". I present to your attention the TOP 8 worst gifts for February 23, compiled on the basis of a survey of representatives of the strong half of humanity.
1. Hygiene products
In the honorable first place in the ranking of the worst gifts for February 23 is shower gel. A man can buy this hygiene product for himself. In second place is shampoo, especially if it is for dandruff. Any hint that you need to wash, shave, and so on is perceived negatively.
2. Unnecessary things
A gift from the series “On you, God, what is not good for us” always upsets the recipient and spoils the image of the giver. Such gifts include broken items (be sure to check everything before delivery), a gift with a logo that is clearly free or received at some kind of draw.
3. Alcohol and tobacco
Oddly enough, but men do not like gifts associated with alcohol or smoking. By handing over a lighter, an ashtray or a bottle of alcohol, the giver hints at bad habits, which can be misinterpreted.
4. Feminine gifts
Even if a man likes to spend his leisure time preparing a new dish in the kitchen, this does not mean that on February 23 he is waiting for something like an exclusive pepper shaker or gravy boat as a gift. This also includes sweets, flowers, various certificates for beauty salons.
5. "Troublesome" gifts
It is not very happy to receive as a gift something that will bring unnecessary trouble, even despite their cost. For example, a car wash for a person who does not have a water supply and drain in the garage. To use this gift, you have to work hard. Doubtful pleasure, isn't it?
6. Clothes that need to be tried on
It is very easy to miscalculate with such gifts that require the direct presence of the recipient: outerwear, shirts, ties and cufflinks, perfume. Underwear and hosiery also made the list of "forbidden" gifts, especially if they are in humorous prints and cheerful colors.
7. Unnecessary souvenirs
It is not very pleasant to receive an unnecessary souvenir as a gift, such as figurines, caskets, magnets. Periodically, we all clean the apartment from junk. And then the moment comes when you want to throw this souvenir away, but it's embarrassing ...
8. Gadgets from obscure manufacturers
If you decide to give a man any of the gadgets (flash drives, drives, external drives, mice, keyboards, phones and accessories for them), remember that here, as well as with clothes, it’s easy to make a mistake if you don’t agree on the model, dimensions, etc. nuances.
The first line in the hit parade of the worst gifts for February 23 is occupied by a shower gel. Believe me, he can buy it for himself. Shampoo, especially if it is for dandruff, we will give an “honorable” second place. In general, any hint that you need to wash, shave, in 99.99% of cases is perceived negatively.
So you can safely send offtopic a razor (electric and dangerous), and all kinds of brushes, even if they are from a cool barbershop, shaving gels and foams, replaceable blade cartridges, aftershave lotions, colognes, and a trimmer. However, a trimmer and a special comb for a mustache and beard can be very useful if your man is going to grow a beard, and you yourself are not against his decision.
2 Unnecessary souvenirs
It's a shame to receive unnecessary items like souvenirs (figurines, caskets, framed paintings, magnets). From time to time, any person gets rid of trash in the apartment. And when you pick up that same souvenir, you want to throw it away, but it's embarrassing ...
3 "Troublesome" gifts
Even more offensive, getting something that will bring unnecessary trouble. Moreover, these things can be quite expensive. Let's say a car wash for a person who has no water supply and drain in the garage. In this case, to wash the car, you need to buy a tank, a canister and manually bring water from home. Pleasure is doubtful. And, the question is, why spend a lot of money?
4 Clothes that need to be tried on
It is very easy to miscalculate with such presents that require the presence of the recipient. Type outerwear, perfume, ties, cufflinks, shirts, baseball caps and T-shirts. Men’s clothes are generally called a sore subject and they are urged not to play “dolls” in absentia. Lingerie and hosiery also included in the banned list. Especially if these items are with humorous prints or cheerful colors. In short, guys are advised not to even think about shorts and socks.
5 Gadgets of obscure models and manufacturers
The history of gadgets is very similar to the saga of outerwear and ties. Flash drives, drives, external drives, card readers, mice, keyboards, phones and accessories for them, styluses for tablets - these are things that are easy to make a mistake if you do not agree on the model, volume, connector and other nuances.
6 Feminine gifts
It does not fit into the format of a male gift and any item that gives off femininity: chocolate, kitchen utensils like a pepper shaker or a gravy boat, flowers, a certificate for pedicure procedures with the “use” of garra rufa fish. The men we interviewed used to receive such gifts, and were by no means happy.
7 "On you, God, what is not good for us"
Any thing from the series “On you, God, that we are not good” upsets the recipient and spoils the image of the giver. This can be a broken item (check if it works before handing it over), as well as an item with a logo, obviously free and received at some presentation or draw. In short, getting a branded diary, a mug or a beach bag, you won’t even squeeze out a “thank you” from yourself.
8 Alcohol and tobacco
Oddly enough, everything that is associated with drinking alcohol or smoking is often annoying. Handing over a bottle of wine, a beer glass, a lighter, an ashtray or a smoking pipe with a set of brushes for cleaning it, you are not acting too delicately. hint at bad habits may be misinterpreted. And, finally, it's easier than ever to be puzzled by a postcard: there is a postcard, but where is the gift?
