Explain to me why I should be a metrosexual?

[JohnKleeb]

:shrug:

[7th_Sephiroth]

1. because

you would piss george W Bush off

[JohnKleeb]

9. but isn't he a metro?

really, I think he is.

[7th_Sephiroth]

14. no, he's just rich

rich people and metro ppl act similar

[JohnKleeb]

16. I dunno

I think he just tries to go for the tough guy look and attiude.

[anonymousdemocrat]

2. men look very nice in floral prints

and exotic accesories...

:hi:

:D

[JohnKleeb]

6. hah

but I like my look which is whatever I see, I wear.

[Duncan Grant]

19. You don't know what a metrosexual is, do you?

And if you're as offensive as your sense of humor, you won't be here long. :wtf:

[JohnKleeb]

21. woops

[anonymousdemocrat]

23. How is that offensive?

And my effort to remain incognito, has, i fear, been betrayed by JK .

You do know me, and i'm a friend...

24. hi, SF

I tease my closest male friend about being a metrosexual because he has a collection of japanese shirts with gorgeous floral prints; he also tucks in his shirts, occasionally wears jewelry, and has a fondness for blazers over jeans. he is neat, clean, and pretty damn eye-catching, in a sea of baggy jeans and sweatshirts on campus.

I adore him and find him to be one of the most attractive men i have met; hence my comment today, was simply honest! i think a little vanity, flair, and "chutzpah" in male fashion is great.

31. It must be my turn to be the "lounge asshole" today. How embarrassing.

Looks like I should turn away slowly and tip-toe out of here. I've obviously spent too much time in GD reading about sin, Christians, Homosexuality, etc.

a.d. - my overreaction was to the idea that metrosexual is somehow a feminization of men (floral prints, etc.) when it's not. I'm sure you and Kleeb understand that 'metrosexual' is a marketing tool, yes?

With the hope of a quick and painless exit from this thread - I should confess that I usually stay out of Kleeb's threads and let the 'young' adults run freely through the lounge - wish I would have remembered that today.

And with copious amounts of egg on my face ( :silly: ), I offer a sincere apology to you. (embarrassed emoticon here)

[anonymousdemocrat]

32. no big deal, SF;

i know "metrosexual" is just a meaningless marketing tool/word;
i'm just being silly here, but also honest;

whatever "metro" may mean, i do like sharp dressers, who are unafraid to show flair;

too many men are afraid to, i think. & the ones who do, certainly stand out, most pleasantly, IMO. i don't consider them "feminine" in the least; although neither do i consider a feminine man or a masculine woman, negative. i find all gender ambiguity quite refreshing and natural.

cheers!

:toast:

[Duncan Grant]

33. Cheers...

I'm off to find my sense of humor! I know I put it down here somewhere... :toast:

[jukes]

27. hi, an'crat!

welcome to DU!!!

i think your comment was most appropriate, & extremely funny; bet you'll be around forever...


:hi:

[anonymousdemocrat]

28. thanks, jukes!

is a pleasure to be here, among so many like-minded folks!

:hi:

:yourock:

[liontamer]

3. don't bother

scruffy guys are often hotter anyway. Especially at your age

[JohnKleeb]

5. hah

Actually I am clean shaved right now.

[Maple]

4. You'd look and smell better

[JohnKleeb]

7. true, true

[joeybee12]

8. Because you're a trendy guy who always jumps on the most current

bandwagon!

[JohnKleeb]

13. carolina blue T's with jeans is the new look?

[joeybee12]

15. You are asking the least fashion-conscious homosexual on the planet!

Well, maybe not the least, but I really don't pay attention to stuff like that.

So, considering that, I say, go with it!

[JohnKleeb]

17. hah I only have a few carolina blue shirts though

[joeybee12]

20. Well, what do you have a lot of?

Other than time, to post so much?

[JohnKleeb]

22. other than time?

hair :D.

[joeybee12]

25. Good! And I hope you keep it!

[JohnKleeb]

26. Oh I will

I aint being cocky, they say its your mother's father who determines that, and my grandpa has his hair.

[joeybee12]

29. I still have mine, but never knew if I would--my mother's parents

separated when her father was about 30 (you didn't divorce back then)--basically my grandmother threw my grandfather out, and they never saw him again.

[JohnKleeb]

30. ahh so you never knew

Its nice to have a lot of hair but it gets too thick.

[Dudley_DUright]

10. because the manicure industry

could use a hand?

[Kierkegaard]

11. Because you could then relieve tension and travel simultaneously.

[whodiedandmadeUSgod]

12. You skin would be soft and radiant

[Dogmudgeon]

18. Don't listen to them

Be who you are. That's good enough.
