guy talk

Men's casual conversation

Guy talk is conversation stereotypically associated with men among themselves—discussions of sports, cars, women, or crude humor that men might avoid in mixed company.

The term implies a relaxed, unfiltered register: Once the wives left, it was all guy talk.

Sometimes used dismissively to characterize shallow masculine discourse.
