I thought I just invented a word, a portmanteau of man and answer: manswer. This word would indicate a man-standard response to a given question. Thus,
Question: “Honey, do these pants make my ass look big?”
Manswer: “Baby, you look great in everything you wear.”
or
Question: “Want another beer?”
Manswer: “BELCH.”
Turns out the word manswer already lives at the Urban Dictionary, and has so for a couple of years. Must just be a case of delayed subconscious parallel invention hoo-ha.
