Men's hobbies and down time

A while ago, a few friends were over and we began debating hobbies. We started dividing up men's and women's hobbies. Clearly making massive generalizations and stereotyping.

The men's hobbies went something like this:

Fishing
Hunting
Beer making
Golfing
BBQ ing
Watching Formula one racing
Poker
Watching sport

Women's hobbies went something like this:
Reading
Crafts
Getting their nails done
Baking
Organizing
Exercise
Shopping

Forgive me if these lists are offensive or shameful, but at some level they resonated with us.
So the conversation went towards men's hobbies including downtime, so you club the ball then you walk, you toss in the fishing line then you wait, you put the meat on the grill, then you chat, you stir the hops then you wait, get the picture? Up then down, up then down. 

Whereas the women's hobbies were more social or more consistently active, there wasn't this up and down rhythm. More sustained and permanent movement. Was this just preference or do women view this downtime as a waste of time? Do women have the need to fill downtime with stuff. Yet, we discussed, the downtime really is as important as the up time. At least that's what the boys said.

We even compared this downtime to prehistoric tendencies, namely the downtime is the mental preparation for the kill. We paralleled it to war, you train, you rest.
So are men just Neanderthals or soldiers? Are men finding hobbies that fill this primeval need.

Or we're we just talking a pile of Friday afternoon drink induced rubbish?

I figure it's the latter, but I do so love these silly provocative exchanges.

Make your own observations about what the people around you spend their time doing, and see what you find.
