Real Men Moisturize." So begins an article on "Sharp Dressed Men" that appeared in a State Department funded magazine aimed at youth in the Arab world. The magazine, called "Hi" is published in Arabic and English. A State Department website explains that Hi is published "with the hope of building bridges of greater understanding among our cultures."
The article continues: "In fact, some of them, like Michael Gustman, a 25-year-old public relations account executive from Boca Raton, Fla., even have separate moisturizers for the face and body. Facial pores can clog with too heavy a salve, it seems. Not long ago, these and other habits would have been considered odd for a male. Gustman exfoliates. He gets manicures. He gets pedicures. He gets facials. He gets his hair done every two weeks. He accessorizes. He puts effort into getting ready for a date. He loves cooking complex dishes. He's a refined, evolved, sensitive guy. In a word, he's a metrosexual."

Gag. My tax dollars at work.
But once he marries, he probably won't even want to bother shaving :-).
I thought the "MetroSexual" was dead? Or was that just the DNC grassroots?
Oh foo. I must've been so busy scheduling my next manicure that I forgot to use the search function.
I would have expected this kind of drivel from the Administration of Pres. Howard Dean, America's first metrosexual president.
He'll shave as often as his wife shaves her legs. :-)
LOL.
Did I mention that he'll probably also take to wearing worn out t-shirts?
In two words, he's a pathetic wuss. I'm almost too disgusted for words.
I'm glad our fire dept. is devoid of those creeps. That's one place I can always go to do some down to earth stuff with down to earth people. But I guess you won't get many "metrosexuals" in county where your largest town is real small.
Heaven forbid you damage a nail by excessive use of a keyboard.
They still sell Hi Karate?
Give you one guess at what kind of salve gets stuck in these guy's pores.
Still are buddy.
Well you know how fragile those nails can be. I would absolutely die if I broke one.
I use a blend of WD40 and Hoppes #9.
