Mancation is a word used to refer to a male-only vacation, or “when normal males engage in ‘guy’ activities that involve sports, camping, gambling, chasing women and most of all drinking amongst their all and only male friends. No wives, mistresses or girlfriends allowed. Done in order to get in touch with their male-primal roots.”

The word is not trademarked, but is believed to have been coined in 2002 when Larry Meadows started using it to refer to his yearly vacation with his male friends. At a wedding reception, his wife suggested to Larry and Bill Holycross that they should go on a golfing vacation. Larry looked at Bill and said “mancation.” The term “stuck” and spread throughout the nation.^[1]

During the summer of 2006, the word grew quite popular as actor Vince Vaughn used it in the romantic comedy “The Break-Up,” stating: “I’m excited. I look at it like I’m on a mancation.” ^[2]

Another slang term associated with these getaways for groups of men is “mancursion.” ^[3]
