He recommended steering 'clear of anything strictly utilitarian unless it is something the person has asked for'. In the days leading up the festive season, it can be difficult to figure out what to buy the men in your life Mister Manners said there's no reason to gift 'five gallons of primer for him to kickstart the house-painting project' or 'sandpaper and wood stain for the bookcase you've been hoping he will refinish.'
Examples include 'any gift that implies their home is not well-looked after, such as a gift card for a cleaning service, anything that implies that one's in-laws look old, such as wrinkle creams, are out of touch - a trendy blouse that is not your mother-in-law's taste even though perhaps it is yours - or out of shape.'
