What Men willing pay for, time and money

Obviously sex and related stuff (pornography, strip club, prostitution, etc.) get men excited and willingly pay for. Show of physical power and control draws men, too: boxing, wrestling, monster trucks. I'm not sure what attracts men to certain music (because the girls are around?) but some are more masculine than others, I'm sure -- I prefer pre-Classical music and "new age" (more accurately instrumental popular music, regardless of 'genre') so it's hard to say what attracts other men.
