...they were better posters than you are, though...

They probably were - I put a lot more mental energy into FR back then. Now I just make short, smart-ass comments on the few threads that interest me. ;)

(apparently too many kids were given the ken doll and not GI joe)

My Pops wouldn't even let me have that because it was a doll. "You wanna play Army, git out in the yard!"

Let's add a bit of a clue for the non-locals. Midtown Atlanta has been a mecca for the queer male set since at least the late-70s. Anyone with any knowledge of the city at all, knows that.

We have more homo's per capita than New York or San Francisco. They make pretty good neighbors, though.

No comment on this one. If you want to look primped and too spiffy - forget about that date. No real woman wants to go out with an emasculated man - er, pretend girlfriend.

It's the look I aim for when I wear a suit and tie.
pun intended

How about the line for "you only live twice" where Sean Connery stops the ladies from removing his chest hair.

What did he say? "birds do not nest in an empty tree"?

I think we are dancing around one simply fact. The men who are primping like they are females are homosexuals or men who think by immitating like homosexuals they will attract women.

Such pansy boys would never (or understand about) open the door for a lady, or do any of the gentlemanly things associated with proper social MANNERS.

The Bond character had/has perfect manners (fictional of course), he would never be mistaken for a metrosexual, pansy boy, or dandy.

"Waxing makes up 35% to 40% of the business at Joq Day Spa for Men in Atlanta. 'Men are just becoming a lot more conscious of what their body looks like,' spa director Christopher Keever says."

...

The print version of this article has a giant photo of someone named Guido Amato getting a facial. No-one named Guido Amato should be getting a facial. Incidentally, the "men's salon" (isn't "men's salon" an oxymoron?) where he gets his facials is called "Wise Guys." Amato admits he's been called a metrosexual. "When I hear that word, I just think, 'a guy that likes to take care of himself.'"

Well, yeah, they fix the place up, and don't have to worry about protecting women and children while taking back urban blighted areas from the drug dealers and low-life criminals, which was the status of much of Midtown 3 decades ago, when they were really first moving in.

You probably don't want to know... but go search google, it'll point you in the right direction.

And don't forget that in urban areas there is tough competition for the "high end" women. The guys who indulge in this feel that it gives them an edge.

And to think, I've been waisting all this time thinking my incredibly large penis gave me the edge.... now you are telling me I should have been waxing my chest?

I dunno... sounds kinda gay to me... urban or rural.

I'm flanked on three sides by them. They keep me on my toes when it comes to the grass getting mown. Although, the "you need to cut your grass" sneer isn't as bad from them as it is from my 85 year old, former Marine, neighbor. A hearty "yessir" and flying my Gadsden flag usually keeps the peace between him and me.

LOL, on your approach with your Marine neighbor. Good stuff.

What range do you go to? I'm assuming you go regularly, if you're flying a Gadsden.

If it's American Classic Marksmen, ping me the next time you go, I'm always up for an excuse to head over there for some non-metrosexual activities.

I work right down the PI from ACM. I went in there once to see if they had a good rate for a corporate team outing. Then I got a new boss that's a Brit, so that went out the window.

Sadly, in some social circles an incredibly large penis is trumped by an incredibly large bank account and incredible displays of vanity.
