We all joke about boys and their toys, but why is it men are so attached to their gadgets? <br /><br />According to new research, two thirds of men like being in charge of big toys or machines. Nearly a third of them think it’s manly, a quarter of them say it makes them feel powerful and important- but most of all, three quarters say it all comes down to it being good fun. <br /><br />But despite the fun side, the study from Kärcher – the world’s leading pressure washer manufacturer – shows men do take their toys very seriously. More than half say they wouldn’t admit to their partner if they couldn’t use a piece of technology. Nearly a third of those say they’d rather struggle on regardless than admit defeat and two thirds say they’d work it out in the end! <br /><br />In this video, racing car driver Jason Plato talks about the research and also reveals what his dream gadget would be.
