Generational Gaps & The Best Gook

Survey of Men 20 vs. 50 years old pop culture, sex, opinions
I found this article in Esquire this month to be really neat. The basis is to ask and get opinions of 20 year old men and compare them to the answers and opinions of 50 year old men. Below is why they chose these two age groups. It's kind've like the generational gap on paper.
'Fact: Among the total population, there are more 50-year-olds in America right now than any other single-age group, and the second largest single-age group (not counting the stragglers around 50) is 20-year-olds. Fact: If you're looking at only the male population, there are more 20-year-olds in America right now than any other single-age group, and the second largest single-age group is — wait for it — 50-year-olds.* Fact: This is pretty cool, and after commissioning a nationwide survey of men born in 1960 and 1990, we learned just how far apart today's 20-year-olds and 50-year-olds are in their attitudes, expectations, and beliefs.' Below are some of the 50 questions asked.

Below is Esquire's list of best health and maintenance products for men to use from lower cost to big spending items. I consider a cheat sheet when this stuff comes out each year. The Gillette warming scrub is legit by the way. If you buy the new Gillette Fusion razor it comes with a free sample. Enjoy
