Is your boyfriend’s behavior starting to worry you? Has he used disturbing language around the house, like “comfy” and “tummy"?

Does he know the names of more than seven colors?

Has he ever complimented you by saying, “What a great top!”?

Are you able to discuss redecorating with him without it becoming an argument....

Mr. H.R. calls the color magenta, "red" the color burgundy, "purple", and admits to everyone that decorating decisions are MY call, not his. His hands are rough and chapped, and I just love him.

One of the many unfortunate things about modern culture is that it has categorized all men as either homosexuals or boors.

[BlueLancer]

My wife just calls this "well-trained".

Thank God my wife still categorizes me as just a "dumb ass."

I call it "homo"

Unfortunately, for us single guys, we have to adopt metrosexual tendencies as we get older.

We are expected to dress like we have a woman with taste picking out our clothes. We are expected to have a home that doesn't scream "bachelor pad". Women DO look to see what our fingernails look like, so most of us need a manicure because we are clueless about nail care. Women encourage us to get highlights or lowlights in our hair.

If women want us to stop acting like this, they need to stop expecting us to.

Spoken like someone who recently had his 'dude card' pulled.

I say this often to my wife.

Mainly when she isn't wearing one.

They used to be called sissy. It was a good description, it didn't need to be changed.

"Women encourage us to get highlights or lowlights in our hair."

What "women" are you talking about??? That's disgusting!

[KarlInOhio]

Women encourage us to get highlights or lowlights in our hair.

Nature is starting to put some highlights in my hair and I don't like it one bit.

Unless you’re a botanist, bok choi and arugula are the same thing - lettuce. Bok choi or arugula? The answer is steak.

The true difference between us and THEM. :)

Despite the jokes your boyfriend hears on Will & Grace, a metrosexual is not a refined and sophisticated man. A metrosexual is a doormat.

Women stand up for things, gunslingers stand up to things, face to face, while the shopkeeper cowers behind the counter hoping no one breaks his bottles of white zinfandel.

LOL.

Nice article.

When I was young they had metrosexuals, but they didn't call them metrosexuals. They called them wimps.

Shalom.

Mr. Wonderful You know honey, why don't you just relax and let me make dinner tonight. The ball game isn't really that important, I'd rather spend time with you. Why don't we go to the mall, didn't you want some new shoes? You know, I think it's really important that we talk about our relationship You've been on my mind all day. That's why I bought you these flowers. Here, you take the remote, as long as I'm with you, I don't care what we watch.

Trolling for website hits....

Well, let's see: most of the great painters, composers, writers, chefs were/are men, and most lived before the term 'metrosexual' was invented. I think 'metrosexual' is sneaky term for co-opting the achievements of great minds and claiming them for soft minds.
