Keeping Childhood Toys?
2018-09-08 11:02 pm
Can someone help me understand this. When guys move out of their parents parents house, they usually move out stuff they’ve kept from their childhood such as matchbox cars, diecast trucks, G.I. Joes, or other childhood toys they had. When girls move out of their parents house they only move the necessary items like a bed or a desk or something like that. Also girls usually have given away or thrown out their toys. My question is, why do guys keep their stuff and most girls do not? In all honesty I’ve seen a girl break up with a guy because he still had some of his legos and other stuff from his childhood, granted, he was still living at home at the time and I thought that was so wrong.

A combination of things:1) Memories
2) Guys never really truly grow up
3) Those toys have been known massively appreciate in value over time
4) While girls tend to blow a small fortune on stuff like clothes & shoes + various other things for vanity regardless of whether they need them or not and often get in a right mess with credit card debts, guys tend to be more frugal and some may see keeping their old toys as a way of saving money when they eventually have kids themselves (and probably also why guys often seem to end up with additional collections of stuff from normal collectables to random bits of wood that might come in handy for something one day).

Because they could potentially be worth lots of money.
Guys never really grow up. Look at the gamers. Most of them are adult males.

Do you know the story of Peter Pan? Girls have to be grown-ups, if they leave their parents house. Boys are never getting adult.

Most women are successful and can find self-gratification in other items of sentimental value. Some men are unsuccessful and need to look at 'that time I built a space ship out of Legos' to feel good about themselves. Also, toys are ******* cool man, why wouldn't we keep them?

Some women actually do take some of their old toys from childhood with them when they move out, either as collectors items, for mostalgia, or to give to their future kids. I’m a grown woman and I still have some of my old toys from my childhood.

Why? Females grow up and move beyond their childhood toys (except a few to give to children) but Guys NEVER grow up! I still have a few toys from back in the 60's that I've kept. My new toys get more expensive. I'm old and retired, but not too old to play! Some Guys don't really play with their toys, they "collect" things like matchbox cars or other items that often go up in value over the years.

When my brother had children, I gave most of my old toys to them.
Just as my mother's younger brother had given them to us. Just as my mother gave her old doll collection to her nieces. Just as my Dad didn't give us his comic book collection, because his mother had tossed it out.
That seems normal if you grew up on something besides cheap plastic junk and video games. I've met women who collected dolls, barbies, etc... just as I've met men who kept their collections of action figures and collectibles.
As for your claims about girls moving out.
Most of that is knowing that their parents will store things for them, because they'll be moving back if they break up with someone or lose a job.
Guys know when they move out, they're moving out. They won't be expecting their parents to store their memories for them.
And as for legos. There isn't a kid alive who liked legos, who didn't at some point wish he had more of them and the new ones still work with the forty year old ones.

It’s fine. Give them a break.

Some guys probably want to save stuff to give to their kids.
