Being a metrosexual has gone to a whole new frightening level in the 21st century. So frightening, that I seriously believe that if we do not do something about it (whether scientifically or psychologically), the male gender is going to obsolete its own balls and grow a vagina instead. Don’t believe me? Tell me, how many of you guys do these… :
Expensive shampoo or conditioner for hair
I’ve seen some guys discuss their shampoo preference openly. You know, split ends, dry hair, dandruff. What kind of extracts from which type of exotic plant it has. I do not know since when do guys worry about these petty stuff. What’s wrong with ordinary shampoo??
Expensive facial treatment
It’s also equally disturbing to know that some pussy boys pay to have their face washed for 2 hours. The end result? Still the same face. These metrosexuals don’t seem to be able to understand that our face secretes stinking oil/grease every fucking second and no facial treatment could prevent that from happening (unless of course, if you’re a corpse).
Manicure
I heard this on the radio the other day, that Pietro guy went to get his nails done. I was like, WTF??? It’s unbelievable really. Why would a guy need to get his nails done? Fucking escapes me. To enhance the experience of scratching their man-vagina perhaps.
Powder on face
I kid you not, my wife once saw a Malay neighbor (who’s a doctor) powdering his face inside his car with an applicator (which looked something like a miniature Roti Naan). He’s probably on his way to get his annual pap smear, I guess.
Trimmed eyebrows
There’s a rather effeminate guy character residing in our HR department at Company X, who had his eyebrows regularly trimmed thin like he’s auditioning for a drag queen contest. But that guy’s a guy though, because everything else looked normal – except his pair of fucking ridiculous eyebrows. So damn fucking pondan-ish.
Hand lotion
The only justifiable excuse for a guy to use the hand lotion, is when he needed to lube his dick for an aggressive session of anal sex with his girlfriend. Other than that, it’s just inexcusable. I’ve blogged about this before here.
The list goes on. Those are the disturbing ones that I know. Maybe only the tip of the iceberg, there are probably more disgusting ones that I couldn’t imagine. Like I have said, man we should really do something to change these pussy behaviors lest we’d all evolve into one common androgynous specimen…
if u r real man also will know hand lotion as lub for anal sex is not suitable lar…
I actually saw one using a lip gloss. And the lip gloss color is pink! Surprisingly, it doesn’t make his lips any more ‘pinker’.
Hahahah, I think I can still remember the dude from Company X you are referring to. :)
naeboo – If you really know men, then you should be able to figure out that at times of desperate need for an anal sex, a man would use ANYTHING to lube his dick… (give me cooking oil, I’ll use it)
Jase – I think he might be applying a lip balm to treat his chapped lips… but being pink is equally pussy. You should probably discriminate him.
Shar – Oh yeah. The infamous HR pondan. A plump toad in his 30′s, thinning hair and smells like a zoo compound.
guys doing facial treatments are acceptable….
just because mostly they’re hidden under facial mask etc.
and hey~ guys need to look good sometimes
but manicure! urgh…… no matter how that’s presented, it’s not man… at all
Yucks, Pietro went for manicure? He should go for slimming treatments instead la :P
I once accompanied a friend (a male of course!) to a saloon to get his hair trimmed. He was so particular with his hair that it took him 15 mins to explain to the hair stylist how he wanted it to be and he wants it EXACTLY the way he had described. And all along whilst his hair was being ‘styled’, he was holding this huge-ass mirror and trying in vain to make sure his hair is done the right way. Jeez…..it’s just a fucking hair! I wonder whether he has hia pube-hair trimmed like tat too! So, is that considered overly-metrosex?
kate – Ugh… facial treatment for guys is so ‘not acceptable’ to me…
hellokitty – I think he looks fine with that size… Very few women like skinny ass guys…
Quinn – I think you should buy that guy friend a handbag (or a box of tampon) on his next birthday. He’s going to like it.
So far I only use moisturizer, that’s it.
who needs shampoo, only soap will be enough… have short hairs will prevent split ends..
The problem with soap is that I have to rub the damn thing so many times before I can get enough sud to clean my hair.
Many of my male students carrying girly handbags and they trim their eye brows as well. I have a lot of guy friends who use lotions and spend like hours choosing clothes before going out with friends. I felt abit weird at first but after that just got used to it because toooo many of them are doing it right now.
metrosexual men are taking gender-equality to a whole new level i guess. i used to have a metro wannabe housemate who commented on the way i iron my work pants. he said “the pants are crying because you’re ironing them the wrong way”…WTF just as long as my pants are not crumpled then i don’t fucking care how the pants are ironed.
The shampoo and facial thing are acceptable, since hair is like skin and different people require products that suit them and make them look better. I think there is nothing wrong in making yourself look better by protecting your skin and making sure you have good hair. This is after all, the 21st century and appearance matters a whole lot when it comes to almost anything at all, be it presentations, dating, work etc.
Your appeareance just goes to show how well you take care of yourself, not letting yourself go or appearing like a slob. Using lip balm/gloss and some make-up is ok IMHO. How do you think male models/celebs look so good? They take good care of their skin, hair and the way they dress. I’m not saying that everyone should look like a star, but the point is do what you need to so that you look presentable or good in general. Taking care of your appearance will automatically make you feel better about yourself too.
Having said that, too much of a good thing can be bad and I have to admit, some people DO go a little too far. Powdering the face and the manicure is kinda pushing it =P
pedicure i can accept.. cos most guys have stinking feet!!!
skin care, ok lar.. still can accept… cos i would kiss a guy’s face with smooth skin rather than the one covered with pimples! YUCKS!
but cosmetic??? no no! it’s something guys bring out the cash for the girls not something guys spending for themselves :P
on the sidenote: most of my guy friends who are metro always ended up gay… it just happens
Whatever you mentioned so far are acceptable by certain ppl (but definitely not guys laa). Anyway, there provide tanning service & also full brazilian wax for guys you know. (:
