Would it, then, make me more manly since the mower was incapable of mowing the lawn, so I spent 4 hours cutting it with shears by hand, only to then mow it afterwards. I'd be interested to know how manly this is... oh, I normally undertake this activity wearing shorts and flip-flops only.

Though the lawn mower should have a gasoline engine, the engine should only power the blades, not the movement of the mower itself. Men who use the automatic pull feature, while still engaging in the Mantivity, experience a deduction in the Mantivity rating system. Thank you for your vigilance. Excellent point, James.

When a mower has the automatic pull feature, it's best to not use it. I'd even go as far as to disable it. What do y'all think, lower score or no score for using this?

Imagine someone clipping the lawn of the White House with a pair of scissors. Very time consuming, and a little embarrassing. So not very Manly. Actually probably not.
