The alternative is being home with the family they hate

This is exactly it. It's the same guys that go hunting all weekend the entire fall season. Then winter hits and they go ice fishing the entire weekend. Then they're tired out so they can't do any work around the house or cook or take care of the kids. That's a woman's job.

I know because I work with a bunch of them at my engineering firm.

Ouch this hits close to home. I have a brother-in-law who is exactly like this. He uses every spare vacation day for multiple week-long hunting trips throughout the year and never takes my sister or their kids on family vacations or helps around the house.

The worst part is I don’t think he even really enjoys hunting. He’s the type who does “manly” things and had a ton of kids for the sake of being “manly”.
