Men often face stereotypes suggesting they are preoccupied with singular concerns, particularly related to sex.

Anyone believing that men are preoccupied with sex should actually observe men as they go about their daily lives. On work days you'll see them going to and from work, or actually performing work.

Look at websites and magazines frequented by men. They tend to be subject based. Cars, fishing, mechanics, science, or whatever it is that interests a particular man.
