There are several versions of this sign.
They are all out there being used by various people.
I use the first one because it is more popular where I live, but I think the second version makes more "sense."
MAN: (Version A)
The first part of this sign is similar to the sign "father" and then moves down to touch the chest.
0:00 / 0:00
(p.s. If you start this sign at the chin and move it down to the chest it means "woman.")
(p.p.s. No, I don't know where you can buy a cool sweater like the one I'm wearing here.)
(p.p.p.s. No, it doesn't matter how much you offer me, I won't sell you mine. It was a gift.)
MAN: (Version B)
0:00 / 0:00
MAN: (Version C)
Note: this version isn't used much. This third version could be used to indicate that someone is no longer a child but is a man (male + adult).
0:00 / 0:00
