Assalamu alaykum,
well, I hang out with friends---even if they're non-Muslim I try to keep it halal (go to restaurant to eat or watch a play). It is hard, Ima admit but keeping good company helps!
~~~Aslam Alykum, I am just wondering what everyone here does in their free time to keep busy and not sin? I mean, I live in Canada where if you go outside your bound to see some harem things no matter what you do. So I personally have gotten into bodybuilding. What do you do?

Surprisingly yes! That is actually how I became practicing few years back----also you have a chance to influence other people when the strength of your Deen shines through. You cannot be lonely or isolate yourself from the society, you gotta have fun (halal fun). Try doing fun activities with brothers at the Masjid or something of that sort.
^ salaam,
Bro volunteering is good! It is very important to get involved with the Muslim community. " I think gender plays a big difference on the idea of going out with your friends. I think it is better for men to keep it to a minimum in this society." It depends on who those friends are, if they're practicing---well, you got nothing to worry about. Your "hang out places" is mostly at the Masjid, playing some sort of sport, body building (I know many brother enjoy that) and whatever comes in between. You just gotta find people who like the same stuff.
I work 2 jobs so not much time for haraam things.
I read a lot =)
