Ok, so some of my girl friends have told me that I'm metrosexual. I was like wtf and they're like," It's a good thing." Now, is it really a good thing to be called metrosexual by girls?

Women say this to tell you that you are starting to take on the habits and charcteristics of a female - you are a few steps from a homosexual!:(

Don't listen to puertorican_lover he has no clue what he is talking about....

Being metrosexual is VERY good, we are talking metro not homo.. A metrosexual is a man that cares for his own exterior and self. You could define a metrosexual as an upgraded male if you ask me. See I trim my eyebrows, I have a nice 130$ haircut, I dress sharp, I know what colours that match and what doesn't match, I use lotions etc to keep my skin nice etc etc. Now I am in no way gay but do I look better? Of course I do, why? Because I care alot for how I look and this is being a metrosexual. Girls LOVE it. The only males opposing metrosexuality are males that do not understand it and that is afraid.

A metro, to put it simply, is a man that looks gay, and has all the gay habits except that of browning his meat.

KC, your definition is accurate however the predominant misunderstanding of the term can lie anywhere between PL's definition and Engetsu's. It's funny that long ago guys that kept a proper demeanor and dress were referred to as Don Juans.

Ugh, please. I don't oppose it because I'm "afraid", I oppose it because I feel that wasting money on 130 dollar hair cuts and all sorts of lotions is POINTLESS and that knowing what the difference between pink, mauve and salmon is is a waste of brainspace. I have better things to think about, like my studies in school. Upgraded male? Hardly. Just a different sort.

I always thought being metrosexual was bad, but I think I'm probably more that since I do watch my dress and hair and all that. I thought all guys did that, but some just in worse taste than others.

I guess the key is to watch what gay guys do, since they seem to have a good grasp of fashion and stuff, and dress like them but don't act like them.

I am a self admitted caveman and i probably tap more ass than all the metros.

Women want a man. Plus i look better than any sissyboy!! I look like a man. Thats what women want. Women know i can protect them and sense my alpha maleness. The metros know i could ***** slap them any time and take their women.....the women sense this. women want big, strong, rugged MEN. Metros are not masculine...they are feminised men.

Plus i am a monster in bed. I have fuked many women that go with metros...they dont go back.

I'm not sure it's necessary to be either/or when you're talking about a man vs. a metrosexual. A "man" who is all masculine can dress really nice, and still not lose his manliness. It's not as though men who are all rugged dress nice and then suddenly transform their personalities into some flaming gay dude.

You have to dress nice, but act the same as you would if you didn't have the clothes to match.
 

What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.

You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.

See when I get a new haircut and anew hairstyle I feel good, it's nice, I like some small change and I actually LIKE hairstyling, dressing, clothesshopping etc. I get constant comments on how good I dress, how cool my hair looks (females even notice the different styles I create) and I've got tons of comments on my perfume etc. Does it make me less manly? No I'm still as much a player as anyone else (I've actually been called Don Juan by several girls, how many here can actually say the same?).

If people here think I'm gay or whatever just because I care how I look just come visit me and we'll go out clubbing and lets see :)

Metrosexual is definitely more a style than it is anything else. Anyone who thinks that a guy who dresses well is gay is jumping the gun big time. You can be conscious of what you wear and how you look, but as long as you don't go overboard with it and get all SELF-CONSCIOUS about it, it will be ok.

Look at Ryan Seacrest the host on American Idol. He tends to be pretty stylish, but it's a good example of how a guy can go OVERBOARD with it, because it looks like the guy checks his hair every 5 minutes. That's just pathetic to me.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
It depends...are you just being stylish/concerned with your appearance, or are you becoming OVERLY concerned and crossing over into the effeminate?

You might want to ask one of your CLOSE friends, the kind who won't make fun of you for asking. :)

I had a friend who, by the way he dressed & ****e when we went out, seemed a little "metro," but believe me, he pulled ALL the honeys.

Metro sexual. I hear this term and I find myself thinking that someone has come up with another term to encourage men to spend money.

Guys, if getting your hair done, and buffing your nails via manicure helps you get tail, go ahead and do it. Me, I'm going to take the same 130 bucks you'd spend on clothes and buy a power tool or two.

I have a flat top haircut. I've had the same cut since many of you were born! It works for me. I don't get tail every weekend like some of you guys, but I'm a bit more picky than most. I can afford to be.

Being older, I've got a better feel for assessing the ladies interest in me. If she's interested, it's because of who I am. My values, my character, my work ethic, my personality. It's not going to be because of my sweater matching my socks. I'd also say it isn't because I'm so good looking. I'd say I'm about a seven. The girls I get range from 6 to eight. 8.5 on a good night.


I'm fairly certain someone already covered the topic on personal hygiene, so I won't repeat it. On a personal note, I think that if a guy is spending that kind of time on himself and his clothes, that's fine. Me? No way. If the well runs dry, I may consider it. But until then, I'll get it like the cavemen got it.
 

Peace and Quiet

If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.

Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.

This will quickly drive all women away from you.

And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.

As long as you're getting it on with girls and you're not gay, don't worry. It just means you're well-groomed. Do worry, however, if girls stop being attracted to you.

My first post was referring to men who are OVERLY concerned with their appearance (as Squirrels stated) and tend to freashen up as frequently as women, and spend a considerable amount of money on lotions, facials, and manicures etc. than they do on tools!

Kinetic, I don't believe you spend $130 on a haircut. That must include other sevices. Unless you have the mane of a lion:)

You could get the same cut for $15.

Well I'm comfortable being a metrosexual, fun thing is I can get a bunch of nrs, girls all over me sitting on my laps at parties, clubs and what not without even saying more than Hi and maybe dancing some and I never go for girls below 8 so Have fun in your little fairytail world where a man is a hairy bastard that doesn't know what a shave and nice shirt is.
