Society doesn't teach men to express themselves, but Saturday Night Live has a solution. Welcome to "Man Park," a place where straight men in serious relationships can talk to literally anyone besides their partners — you know, like a dog park for men.
The sketch starts out with statistics about men who, instead of having close friends, have most conversations and connections with their female partners. Pete Davidson and Alex Moffat play the excited partners of Ego Nwodim and Heidi Gardner, respectively, rattling off facts at them the moment they come home and pushing the women to find an alternative.
Man Park is the perfect place for dudes to rise and grind, fight about their favorite teams, and find a best man based on a single mutual interest. It has IPAs and "Mr. Brightside" singalongs and even areas for some light roughhousing. Masculinity makes intimacy hard, but Man Park makes it look easy.
Saturday Night Live airs Saturdays at 11:35 p.m. on NBC.
