"What's your vice?" ManWall.com wants to know. From sports and hot rods, to grills and hot girls, the new guys-only social networking site boasts a safe haven for hen-pecked he-men to revel in all things dude away from the prying eyes of the woman folk on the web. But is the concept destined to be a place for boy bonding and cultivating a new network of buds, or is it just another budding soft core porn site, prime for trolls and spam?

"The site has several “walls” on various topics where users can post pictures, videos and other content. Topics include: humor, entertainment, UFC results, fishing, funny photos, cars and hot girls," according to Social Times

"Users may either register and log in or post anonymously which, according to the press release, gives men a freedom them don’t have on sites such as Facebook: “This means no more judgmental looks from your Facebook-savvy grandmother at Thanksgiving or squabbles with your girlfriend over your collection of Megan Fox bikini photos.”"

The site's terms of service note that members may not "
Post content which we find objectionable. This includes, but is not limited to, pornography, illegal content, hateful content like anti-Semitism, threats, spam, and content which encourages unsafe acts. ManWall will determine what’s offensive at its own discretion". 

But who's held accountable when an anonymous poster, another feature of the site, shares sexy photos from an unknowing girlfriend or bedroom pics of a bitchy ex? If one anonymous account generated from an anonymous email is shut down or blocked, how hard can it be to create another of each, after all? To that end, what's to stop ladies from joining and investigating? Deception regarding age is prohibited by the site's terms, users must be 18, but how are both age and sex verified aside from checking off a box? 

Not that there aren't plenty of URL's hosting ugly acts of debauchery, deception, and over-sharing. But offering it explicitly seems a bit, well, unseemly.  

Is building a “virtual wolf pack”, as the site calls it, a positive step, giving guys a safe space to let it all hang out? Or is a specifically sans lady destination a potential Pandora's Box?
