Since when am I pretty boy? Oh yeah, and Details is gay. Not metrosexual or any other markerting term. No one wonders about Details, we just accept that its gay. So what if I like colognes, you girls suck. Always complaining that we smell bad but then don't like it when not. You don't even know what you want half the time so just give us hell for taking showers.

Look, if you have to label him a metrosexual . . he's just gay and needs to come out of the closet. Or really effeminate, and I am not completely convinced that you can be really effeminate without somewhere deep down liking the dick.

Its mostly body language. There are men that dress exquisitely well that are extremely masculine, you wouldn't think of them as Gay, Metrosexual, or effeminate . . . they just dress well.

Then there are all the rest, the ones where their body language and vocal expressions leave you wondering.

i'll date a metro guy anyday. its like the best of both worlds- you get the (stereotypical) style, class, interests of a gay guy, but in the body of a totally straight guy. sounds good to me!!! shopping, anyone?

Until you're married with a kid, and a second on the way, and a week before your 5th anniversary, he decides to come out of the closet.

I don't think metrosexuals are such a bad thing. We have a couple fraternities here on campus where 99% of the guys in the house are like this, and they're all beautiful and I love it. But then there are always a few of those gross "frat boys" in every house that go and ruin it for me...but I digress.

The only thing that kind of weirds me out is when I go tanning, and I'm waiting for a bed and I'm the only girl there! I like beautiful men, but I guess I'd just rather not see how they become beautiful you know? :D

Their hair is perfect. They have more clothes than most women. They use cologne and moisturizer and hair products. They go to the gym daily. It's been going on in New York for years. A man has to be well groomed and well dressed in NY. :)




I dont understand, if I do these things you mentioned in your post....does that make me feminine? I dont think I'm that way at all...but I do have 12 different colognes, use hair products, shower gel, sometimes I get pedicures, have massages and I go to the gym all the time. My girl says I have more clothes than her and that I shouldn't need to go shopping for at least a year. At the same time I sometimes come across to people as a dick, which isnt being a pretty boy or feminine at all. My girlfriend plucks my eyebrows, but that isnt feminine. I know lots of guys who pluck their eyebrows to trim them. I think metro-sexual is just a term some woman made up to call a male who is hot, but only she didnt want to swell his head or his ego...so she coined metro-sexual.

Don't get me wrong, I love to see a guy alld ressed up, in a great suit or nice slacks and a shirt.
But I also think it's sexy when a guy throws on a pair of jeans, a t-shirt and a ball cap.

I couldn't deal with a guy who was concerned about his appearance 24/7. I'm not like that. I'm the jeans a t-shirt kind of girl myself. I prefer to be comfortable, I'll dress up when I need to (or want to) but not all the time just to impress people I don't even know.

Metrosexuals are too high maintenence. That's not me and it would be too much for me to deal. By the same token, I'm probably not their type of girl either, so it's all good.

ETA: For me, it's not so much what guys wear that make them hot, but how they wear it.

You say exactly what I'm thinking all the time! Stop it!! ;)

I've never been attracted to a metrosexual type (but I'm also not attracted to the manly manly I'm going to scratch my balls and throw a steak on the grill guy either). I just don't like it when a guy is really concerned about his appearance -- he should be cute, but not because he makes an effort.

Well you know what they say..."great minds think alike!" :D
