Metrosexuality - Explain it to me

[soad]

Some say there are blokes who like to enjoy the things normally associated with girlies. You know what I meant - massages, face masks/peels, manicures, fake tan sprays, moisturisers and the like.

Some perhaps take it too far (I’m not hating) with eyebrow plucking/shaping, dodgy hairdos. Even laser hair removal.

I blame beauty salons for all the available choices.

Is it okay for blokes to appreciate some of the above these days and not be vain about it?

Views/opinions, please.

Over to you folks.

Yours truly

You pretty much explained what it is above.

massages are awesome (those without extras)

It's all about Attitude.

Is that a statement, or a question?

If it's a statement, then we've already lost you. You're on the other bus; the one heading for Minceville.

If it's a question, then no, no and thrice no.

Real, proper blokes need no more of a "regime" than a bar of Coal Tar soap (Shield or Imperial Leather at a push), a wire brush and some Dettol.

Anything above and beyond this is borderline you-know-what.


Cheers,

Except when they elicit the intense, urgent, painful-to-suppress desire to pop-pop.

Purely a question! I was simply curious (not in that way).

I have all the treatments you speak of.

I enjoy being pampered and looking good.

+1 nothing wrong with getting a lovely lady rubbing me with oil, we have a woman come to our work place to give us massage's, one of my favourite job benefits!

Maybe they are all like Patrick Bateman?

Perhaps your OH is a beautician.

In that case, try starting it "Is it", rather than "It is".

Thanks.

I've let rip before

the hardest part is not laughing when you let go

Metrosexuals are what we used to call bisexuals, that's all.
If you are a man having a facial, or going on the sunbed or shaving your genitals bald is identical to wearing leather trousers with the arse cut out and a t shirt with a downqard pointing arrow on the back and a sign saying "come and get it boys"

Too far? I have 2 options: Monobrow or Tweeze. I'm happy to tweeze.

And there's me thinking metrosexual was sex on a bus. The rush is incredible.

Doh, how did I miss that? Edited my opening post now.

What about having an enema? Is that metrosexual?
