What makes you feel manly?

Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. Hear the lamentations of their women.
isn't that what is best in life? 
for me, it's walking down the road with my wife holding hands, know that there are guys looking at us and saying, wtf he's punching way above his weight etc
plus managing to fix an issue at home is pretty good.
Being a desk bound IT manager, it's hard to feel manly while complaining that the office is a little cold and filling out a spreadsheet I have no interest in but someone at head office in another country told me I had to. I have to get my manly wins in small petty ways. Some recent examples:
I got the power tools out at the weekend. Talked about masonry bits and managed to erect a dual reel washing line and dart board in the man cave.
Out accelerated a much nicer and more exotic car the other day in my pesky little pretend M car lite hatch.
Drank a strong Belgian beer and scoffed at my Carlsberg drinking mate.
Reverse parked my partners friends car for her when she pulled up in my street and couldn't seem to work out how to get on my drive.

Playing table tennis on the patio against my wife and four children, beating them all soundly, lining them all up in front of me with heads bowed, raising my arms in the air and shouting, "yes I've still got it "!
