History Series / Manswers

* GagBoobs: In one episode they go on a search for the woman with the biggest boobs in the world. The woman they end up finding is apparently named [[MeaningfulName Maxi Mounds.]] Also, in another episode a woman crushes an empty soda can... with her breasts.

* [[AllMenArePerverts All Men Are Perverts:]] A basic assumption of the show.
* AwesomeButImpractical: Most of the answers on the show.
** There are even a few that are completely useless unless you were okay with doing something illegal. (Hell, there are a few that REQUIRED breaking the law and being sent to prison before they could be put to use at all.)
* BuxomIsBetter: Just count the number of questions that begin with the narrator saying "BOOBS ARE AWESOME!"

* MundaneMadeAwesome: Trivia on just about anything (though usually . . . [[AllMenArePerverts guess]]) answered by "experts" of varying levels of credibility, presented by an announcer [[NoIndoorVoice who thinks the viewer is at the opposite end of a football field]] with more fanservice [[UpToEleven than one would think possible.]]

* DumpsterDiving: According to one episode, the easiest way to get free beer is to search for unopened cases at the dump.

''Manswers'' was a show than ran on Creator/SpikeTV from 2007-2011. Its format consists of asking a series of questions that the (college-aged male demographic) viewers presumably want to know, though viewers are also encouraged to send in requests. Thus, the questions generally involving sex, alcohol, animal attacks, or some combination of the three, though slightly more "cerebral" questions occasionally creep in. A season subtitled "Harder Faster" focused more on [[SexSells sex]] and less on . . . everything else, and a season subtitled "Shock and Awe" focused more on war and military related topics. No matter the season, though, explosions and volume are in abundance. And {{fanservice}}. Did we mention fanservice? 'Cause there's [[CaptainObvious a lot]] of fanservice.

* TricksterMentor: One particular manswer outlines a number of ways to fool a Breathalyzer by using various things to alter your breath. Notably this is one manswer that ''doesn't'' have the DontTryThisAtHome label, despite that it supposedly encourages drunk driving... because ''[[AllForNothing none of the methods work]]'', as the end segment reveals that despite its name, the Breathalyzer analyzes the air in your ''lungs'', not your mouth or even your throat.[[note]]A basic function of your lungs is to remove carbon dioxide from your blood, and alcohol is also removed this way, which is why the lungs are tested. In fact it would be infinitely more worrisome if you ''did'' somehow fool the Breathalyzer after having a few too many beers, because that means your lungs are failing.[[/note]]

* {{ShownTheirWork}}: The show has a surprisingly about of creditability which in every episode they back up all their claims with facts and interviews with various experts in fields that their topics are covering.

* AManIsNotAVirgin: Sure enough, about 1/3 of the Manswers involve getting laid.
