May'be, may'be not.
Some women like rough, rugged type men, with stubble.
Some women like abusive men, some like tall, some short.
And alot of women like smooth, sexy, clean cut, nicely dressed, guys who smell good, aka, "Metros".

I go to page 12 but my eye are starting to water. Just want to throw in my opinion:

To me metros are guys who are trying to get noticed, real men just don't care.

Personally I think Tom Selleck would be a good example of a Manly Man. Can look just as comfortable in a tux as he is in torn jeans and a cowboy hat. It's all about attitude and again, metros are "Look at me" and men are "what the f*ck you looking at?"

Also, if I hear "times are changing" again I am going to actually do some work.

does this mean that women who only like metrosexual guys are feminatzis? refusing any sort of traditional values and refusing to do housework and would feel uncomfortable with a guy fixing a car?

How odd, KarenMarie, that you haven't taken 91TTZ to task, also, for his blanket statements about what is and is not for everyone.
[/i]
i am unsure on why you find it odd that i responded to something and not to something else. not that i need an explanation or anything... but perhaps i did not read every statement by every poster... perhaps i did not find anything else worth replying to. perhaps i read one blanket statement by one poster and responded.

i find it odd, aidanjm, that this is such a cause of conern for you that you are reading more into it than there is.

Help me figure something out: Are you gay also?

I find it interesting that the gay (or mostly gay) guys in here consider normal men "neanderthals". As if being gay is sophisticated, and being a straight, normal male is completely unacceptable and uncivilized.

I'm a straight guy who acts and dresses like a straight guy. That doesn't make me a neanderthal, it just makes me "not gay" and "not metro".

i've been accused of being a metrosexual. but rest assured i don't own any hair products. a straightedge razor, shaving cream, a toothbrush, bar of soap. that's all. i just tend to dress better than the camaro driving mullet heads this hairy-twatted woman is after.


I feel ur pain my friend and as far as I am concerned if this chick wants to deep throats skin and hair weekly thats fine, if she would prefer a big nasty sweaty man beast on top of her while making love that is also fine. It gives guys like me the opportunity to send out less fortunate, not nearly as good looking friends over to run control while we I get her hotter friends (the chick who does shave her crotch) number.

What makes you a neanderthal is your need to condemn or ridicule or put down other straight guys, who are not exactly the same as you.

I'm never going to act like a fruitcake, get over it. That's not the future. A bunch of homosexuals aren't exactly qualified to give advice to straight guys. I know you're an opinionated, vocal bunch, but what you're saying is as ridiculous as it's always been.

So far in this thread the main resistance I got was not from people considered metrosexuals, it has been from homosexuals. Call me insensitive, but I really can't take your opinion seriously. I'm not looking for better ways to act gay, sorry. If a guy takes your fashion advice, they're going to be very successful at picking up gay guys.

" I'm no metro, but this skank doesn't sound like the kind of quality woman that I'd date. She sounds like trailer trash. "

What a crock. General consensus around here, is that girls sleeping around is perfectly OK. Tattoos and piercings are "hot", as opposed to slutty. Yet, this girl is trailer trash because she doesn't like womanly men? Typical ATOT hypocrites. :roll:

heh. You guys are great. I like the way you insinuate "rough-rugged-abusive" goes together and is the opposite of "smooth-sexy-clean cut". :music:One of these things is not like the other...:music:

Not to mention "traditional-neanderthal-restricted-warped".

I'd have to agree with this:

Problem with "women I know say they like guys who take care of themselves (ie. "metrosexuals")" is that women say a lot of things they don't mean. Cosmo says they want nice, sensitive, well-trimmed, intelligent successful men, but in reality they want guys named Spike who live out of their car or in a trailer and couldn't count to ten if their lives depended on it.

Sorry, had to toss out the smelly asshole look from my closet. I smell better and the girls seem to like it better now too. /shrug

There's a difference between showering every day, and spending hundreds of dollars and hours each day on beauty treatments.
