I think this is from a survey, so keep in mind that its people reading and answering questions. Some number of people always interpret it a different way or misread.
A lot of cryptobros claim to have gotten rich, or seem likely to be flashing their money around. If someone is throwing money around, why not be somewhere you can catch some
These lists make the most sense if you just imagine the stereotype the hobby exudes. Woodworkers are rugged, work with their hands, have a bushy beard and smell like fresh cut wood all the time, meanwhile someone who's hobby is watching porn is overweight, hasn't showered in a week and will have unrealistic expectations of you while struggling to perform in bed himself. But someone who makes porn is buff, squeaky clean and knows his way around a women's body.
I think it's collecting vs reading. I'm a lady and read comics, well graphic novels, I don't buy the individual issues. Half my bookshelf is graphic novels trade paperbacks. But I do not collect, trade, sell, I don't think of them like that, they are for reading and enjoying.
Collecting I can see as an unattractive trait because it's too close to hoarding.
Manosphere is (to my understanding) Andrew Tate, Joe Rogan, etc. Basically content that promotes men acting like Neanderthals. Why any percentage of women found that attractive is beyond my comprehension.
Are you sure it’s not the part of a car engine collecting exhaust from all cylinders into a smaller number of pipes? Because I can use my ignorance of that and play up my environmental credentials as owning an EV
No, no, you're thinking of a manifold. A manosphere is an orb that keeps track of how much spellcasting energy you have left, next to your healthsphere.
Ok, but most of those shouldn't even be considered hobbies. Like poker can be a hobby but if your hobby is just "gambling" then you probably have an issue. I guess your hobby could be porn if you're in the kink scene and into making porn or something, but while watching porn is ok, if you consider watching porn a hobby then you may have an issue.
There are plenty of people who go out for a drink after work. I don't think they'd describe it as a hobby though, and if they did they probably wouldn't just call it "Drinking".
I do have a cocktails hobby, but would file it under "cooking". Not being drunk as a hobby but creating something delicious is so satisfying. I don't enjoy being drunk but do like a drink, make one 1 to 3 times a week for me and always something great for parties/entertaining.
I almost think it insulates against alcoholism the same way caring about good and delicious food insulates against overweight - I don't really ever drink just to drink, or eat mindlessly. I make intentional meals, intentional drinks, and enjoy them.
To be fair, I enjoy both these things but I don't know that I would classify them as hobbies, more as something I do to wind down. I can see video games going into hobby or even profession territory but THC is just a medicine for me. A hobby is something that needs to challenge me, in which I learn things and get better at it.
