Oh, this is definitely bordering on being a metrosexual thread, but I'll play along anyway,
1. How has your fashion sense changed within the past 10 to 15 years?
It hasn't really. I'm a basics-and-classics kind of guy.
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 tend towards blues, greens, whites and greys, with some other colors thrown in here and there.
Color-coordinating with the wife is just a little too cute. They write SNL skits about people like that.
3. Is there a big difference between boxers and briefs or do we just blow this up for no reason?
Yes, there is a big difference. I go for boxers or boxer-briefs.
4. Shaving......simply discuss....
I always shave in the shower. I use shaving soap and a brush, no shaving cream. I tend to skip shaving on Saturdays unless something will be going on that day (including a "date" with my wife) that calls for shaving.
5. Any preference for soaps
Ivory. I don't want any scents or perfumes in my soap. I'm not allergic or anything, I just hate the smell and I hate carrying that smell around. (I remember too well the awful time that I used, without looking at it, the new soap my wife put by the lavertory -- my hands smelled like pomegranite and mango all day.
)
6. How do you do for smell goods (colognes)
Never use them. Ever.
7. Any guys get mani and pedi's?
Hell would freeze over first.
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.
A comb in my pocket. That's it.
ETA: I forgot, I also usually carry around some Bert's Bees lip balm -- my lips burn and chap very easily. The comb is mostly out of habit.
9. How are you about shoes? Large collection small collection how much do you spend on a pair?
I'm not a shoe horse. I have about 7 or 8 pairs for different needs (dress, casual, athletic, etc.). I look for quality, but I'm not going to spend an arm and a leg on shoes.
10. How important is it for men to get a haircut....
Very.
