I (along with most of the men here) am Retrosexual and proud of it.

Ties of any sort just feel unnatural to me. A Stetson or a ten star straw hat just seem to be something that you should never leave the house without. They'll handle the rain and keep your head out of the sunlight better than anything else.

I've never got around to cutting hogs or sheep, calves are another story. Buckets full, more than the dogs could eat in one day, at least if I expected any work out of them tomorrow. Somehow Saturdays just never ended up being a cuttin/branding day so the dogs stayed slim. LOL

I suspect you prefer blondes with big boobs and no brains. A woman with intelligence and a strong personality with a well defined conservative belief system would be too intimidating for you. I also suspect you are an Army ROTC graduate. At Quantico we were taught to be an officer and a gentlemam.

Just two quick notes:

If you could find a jury of twelve retrosexual men, "He just needed killin' ..." would be a legitimate defense.

My boss gave up long ago on getting me to keep my sleeves rolled down. How can you do maintenance with your sleeves rolled down? (This doesn't apply to welding, grinding, etc, of course)

It's all relative to your lifestyle. I won't leave the house without a do-rag. I wear a warm leather one in the winter months, and linen ones in the summer months. I kind of like cowboy hats, but they fly off my head once my bike crosses 20mph.

As a Retrowoman, I applaud Retromen, and loathe sissy-men. A word of warning though...don't become a neandrothal while the pendulum is swinging. Try to hit middle-ground please.

Hate to borrow the Marxian dialectic - but it IS thesis, antithesis, then synthesis. That means we preserve the most enlightened elements of the original male, the current male, and put'em all together.

On the other hand, this isn't the total "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus" (and John Gray is from Uranus) abdication that the little wimp recommends. Women need to step up to the plate to absorb all the responsibilites that come with all the privileges they've demanded, and had handed over.

I suspect you prefer blondes with big bellies and a sarcastic mouth. A woman with looks and sex appeal would be too intimidating for you. I also suspect you are a Quantico graduate. At ROTC we were taught to not be a pathetic panty waste p***y.

Well folks, I'm off to watch Band of Brothers on The History Channel. I'll grace you with my presence later.

Some reasons a Retrosexual can cry include (but are not limited to) death of a loved one, death of a pet (fish do NOT count as pets in this case), loss of a major body part.

In addition, Retrosexuals are permitted to shed tears (subtle, no sobbing) at military funerals during "Taps," and while watching Episode 9 of "Band of Brothers," or the end of "Saving Private Ryan."

I am a retrosexual living in a blue state. Retrosexuals here are incredibly outnumbered by metrosexuals, homosexuals, bisexuals, and whatever sexuality one would use to describe Bill Clinton types. Of course the birthrate is declining drastically which would cause our population to decline if it weren't for the flood of illegal immigrants.

HunH? Wyoming is a metro/homo/bi/trans state? I live in Montana. I can't see that unless you live in the Jackson Hole area, where all the Hollywood types hang out.

I was born in Wyoming and I am proud of it. I am too ashamed to fly the flag of the liberal state that I live in.

Suggesting that you treat women well is NOT feministic. It's traditional. It's what most parents taught their sons. And they taught their daughters to be ladies.

It's about respect. The fact that you don't understand that shows your immaturity, and lack of proper upbringing.

I can't handle a four-in-hand rig. I can hunt supper, fix any machinery, do plumbing and carpentry work, lay brick, pour concrete, do electrical work and defend the homestead. Am I qualified?

You betcha. Driving four-in-hand is not a prerequisite to being a retrosexual, but defending the homestead is. And all the other stuff you do speaks very favorably of your testosterone level.
