we know when to use that gut instinct about our man and when his habits have crossed a line. "hmm, is that a french manicure on his toes???" or "where the hell is my mascara?"

cleanliness is next to godliness. plus it will get you some serious play lol!

oh and i swear, i will let your unibrow slide or your shirt stay untucked if men LEARN HOW TO TIE A TIE...


i hear that!!! i have to tie my brother's tie all the time for interviews and what not!

and i once tied my (then) boyfriend's tie for him for work one morning... he was impressed, even gave me a standing ovation! :D

I have to tie my husband's tie. Only I can only tie it on me...so I have to loosen it and put it on him after it's already tied.

per DS's request.. lol.
 
I want my man to have nice feet. I dont want my nicely shaved and lotioned legs to be scratched up by some crusty man-feet. Talk about killing the mood.. lol.

So if you need to get a pedicure, get one. No one will question your manhood if you do.

1. How has your fashion sense changed within the past 10 to 15 years?

A lot. Considering that 10-15 years ago, I was in high school. In HS, I felt that fashion in general was a bit of a crock. I therefore avoided clothing with labels on it and wore whatever was comfortable. As I recall, my wardrobe included lots and lots of Hawaiian shirts in the year I went to public school. Before that, I went to a Catholic school where we had a pretty strict dress code... so khakis and oxford style shirts every day. I really didn't care back in those days what kind of clothes I wore.

2. What colors do you prefer to wear, what colors for you are a no...and what have you found that works best? (sidebar: when going out with a signficant other, is there a need to color coordinate with her too?)

I look pretty god in just about any color. My wife used to think I didn't look good in yellow (I have sort of olive colored skin), but I can definitely pull that off. As far as color coordinate? No, never.

3. Is there a big difference between boxers and briefs or do we just blow this up for no reason?

I don't think I've actually owned briefs since prior to middle school.

5. Any preference for soaps

Whatever my wife brings home from Sam's is what I use.

6. How do you do for smell goods (colognes)

I don't ever wear them.

7. Any guys get mani and pedi's?

Never.

8. What are some on the spot things that you keep with you when you go out that may keep you at the top of your game when in good company.

I generally travel light. Car keys, my cell phone and my wallet are generally all I ever carry with me.

9. How are you about shoes? Large collection small collection how much do you spend on a pair?

I have a pretty decent rack of shoes. I generally have the casual/business casual/formal, along with a bunch of old shoes I just haven't been able to convince myself to throw away (like my really old Docs). When in casual, depending on how casual, I wear either some NB's or my Topsiders. When in business casual or business, I'll sometimes still put on the Sperry's, but mostly, it's either a pair of Johnston and Murphy's or something like that. I have a pair of Ecco leather slipper things I try to work in occasionally. I generally will spend up to, maybe even more than $200 on a pair of shoes.

10. How important is it for men to get a haircut....


I'm sure things will change when I finish law school, but generally, I time my haircuts so that they don't interfere with my school work. I'll usually get it cut super short so that I can go a couple of months without getting it cut again. As thick as my hair is, it sort of naturally grows into a style. I'm definitely well groomed whatever my length of hair is. I just wait to get it cut until it starts to look a little shaggy.

it was drakkar i think...and he wore it with this leather jacket all the time. i would take his jacket at the beginning of the day and wear it...sigh, the memories...we are still good friends now though.

nah, never tried it on the current beau. just didnt feel right. besides, my uncle wears the same cologne and i give him a big hug everytime i see him just so it rubs off a little on me lol!

I discovered drakkar back in 1988....ah yeah.....those were the days...i went from that to obsession....I had this one girl I wore it around once and from there she wouldn't leave me alone...she stole a shirt from me....dammit.

OneTimeSBX 07-26-2007 12:51 PM

drakkar must have voodoo dust in it or something...lol!

This has been said a few times, but the point needs to be reiterated.


Clean nails are a MUST! You don't have to go to a spa and have a mani/pedi done per se. But at least keep your nails to short, groomed and CLEAN. When you guys wash the dishes *wink* have your lady/so push back your cuticles.
