"Queer Eye for the Straight Guy"(New reality "makeover" show)

Bravo TV ^

[4.1O dana super trac pak]

They are the Fab 5: an elite team of gay men who have dedicated their lives to extolling the simple virtues of style, taste and class.

Each week their mission is to transform a style-deficient and culture deprived straight man from drab to fab in each of their respective categories: fashion, food and wine, interior design, grooming and culture.

It's a full lifestyle make-over--a make better show where sraight guys turn in their pleats for flat fronts, learn about wines that don't come in a jug and come to understand why hand soap is not a good shampoo (and vice versa).

When the journey is done, a freshly scrubbed, newly enlightened ultra hip man emerges, complete with that "new man" smell.

[4.1O dana super trac pak]

I don't think so.

[Cathryn Crawford]

Oh, hell no.

Actually, it might not be a bad idea. Years ago I went to a gay night club with friends a couple of times. I was amazed by how many good looking, well groomed men there were. As a straight female, I felt kind-of cheated. : ) As long as they are just helping them to be more stylish, I don't really see the harm. It's not much worse than women straightening guys out as far as all of those areas go!

[Cathryn Crawford]

I like my guy to look like a guy, not a wimpy, sissy fashion plate. Sorry.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I don't really see the harm.

So what exactly is wrong with using bar soap for shampoo?

Bar soap cleans and deodorizes all in one easy step!

[4.1O dana super trac pak]

I think I am gonna have to pass and stay the semi-groomed straight guy I am. Five "queers" hovering about, no way, no how.

[4.1O dana super trac pak]

I actually did the bar soap shampoo thing this morning. Works fine.

[annyokie]

MMMMMMMM, sweaty guy who just mowed the grass and changed the oil in the truck! Gimme more of that!

I know what you mean, girl!

[AntiGuv]

It says hand soap, not bar soap. Get with the program!

[JOHANNES801]

Yes and I could teach them to rebuild an engine,catch trout and shoot and skin a buck.

[Bon mots]

Metrosexuals?

[metesky]

This reply is exactly why there should be an intelligence test before one is allowed to vote.

[Cathryn Crawford]

I can shoot and skin a buck. And I have.

And I'm a girl!

[LanPB01]

Isn't this the same network that has the gay dating reality show? Is this whole network for homosexuals or something?

[Clinging Bitterly]

>> Bar soap cleans and deodorizes all in one easy step!

Dish soap doesn't do half bad either. And when I was a young bachelor early in my career, I had a dirty greasy job tearing down old heavy equipment for parts. Some of those machines had open gears with the thickest, blackest grease you ever saw. I always kept Boraxo, but if I was out, Comet didn't do half bad.

But don't ever try oven cleaner.

[JOHANNES801]

Yep,and I married a girl that does those things with me.

[Cathryn Crawford]

My dad scrubs his feet with Comet. I'm not kidding.

Unfortunately he passed that on to me. Dammit.

[Cathryn Crawford]

You are a smart one!

[conservative cat]

Oh, I think there is a happy medium in there. My ex was way too involved with his appearance. Any man who cares more how he looks than you do has PROBLEMS! (I also DO NOT like guys who use my grooming products. If I spent $15 on a bottle of shampoo, I don't want someone else using it!)

[AntiGuv]

Metrosexuals?

Please, don't remind me. I'm still debating whether to look up the words mauve & taupe..
