Im being serious... Is it wrong to go Metro?

Im being serious... Is it wrong to go Metro?

Usually cheaper than taking a cab.

I imagine its like the Gay version of Wiggers.

I dont care what people do.

I just dont want them to tell me how dirty my nails are. Thats a one way ticket to the floor ;)

^Except I probably couldn't throw them down.

Besides, we can see for ourselves when our own nails are dirty, eh? :p

I just hate getting scolded for not using lemon verbena exfoliant. :D

Im being serious... Is it wrong to go Metro?

Very.

Metrosexuality is a lot more wrong than homosexuality. At least homosexuality is always optional, except in the prison, in the army, and in San Francisco. But with metrosexuals around, I'm always afraid that one time I'll meet a woman in a bar, we'll get drunk, and, after having some anal sex with her tonight, the next morning occasionally grab her handle and discover she isn't quite as female as I thought.

That's a drag queen not a metrosexual.

Very.

AAAAAAGH! Metrophobe!

Youre thinking of transvesties, not metroes.

No, I know what drag queen is. I know what a tranny is too. And I know who metrosexuals are.

But with their clean shaved faces and pounds of makeup, how am I to tell a metrosexual from a woman?

No, I know what drag queen is.

I can very easly.

Most of them dont wear that much makeup either.

I'm pretty sure you can tell by the fauxhawk.

Metrosexuality is not manly. Men are not supposed to be like women. Plain and simple.

wtf is metrosexuality? need more input!

I can very easly.
Do they have facial and chest hair? Is their perfume called "a bit of beer I've spilled on myself this morning"? Do their once-white T-shirts say "NASCAR ROCKS"?

If no, how do you tell one from a woman?

Real men don't even know what makeup is.

Ryan Seacrest.

AAAAAAGH! Metrophobe!

Not quite. I just dislike those who are posers, which metrosexuals most definitely are, dressing up like the laughable stereotypical gay person yet not actually be gay. How gay is that?

wtf is metrosexuality? need more input!

When straight men put as much effort into their appearance as homosexuals are stereotyped to do.

I always rather liked Purple Rain.

Can women be metrosexual?

Can women be metrosexual?

Hillary Clinton.

Hillary Clinton.

I think it depends if metrosexual means acting like a stereotypical homosexual, or acting like a stereotypical male homosexual.

Can women be metrosexual?

Janet Reno

Metro's are not wrong, they're just annoying, mostly because of the sheer number of times I've tried to flirt with them. :$

janet reno

epic win!

Janet Reno

*googles*

She's like the US version of Ann Widdecombe.

metro whatuality?

Foppishness; displaying the traits of a coxocomb.

*googles*

She's like the US version of Ann Widdecombe.

Though nowhere near as hideous.

It's very ungoofballian. That doesn't make it wrong, just wrong for me. *nod*

Because those crazy phycologists that say homosexuality isn't a choice are wrong, but that belongs in another debate. So more on topic, why would metrosexuality be wrong? People don't say being goth is wrong, they might think it's weird, but not wrong. It's like saying because you don't like the way a person dresses, or their level of cleanliness males them wrong.

I can be very Metrosexual a times, especially when going out.

I do get a lot of shit for it from a few people I know, but then I say what is wrong with streaking your hair wearing good clothes and styling yourself? I tend to laugh it off before checking myself in the mirror to ensure my hair is the way I want it.

Yeah i look metro when I wear the clothes my Icelandic friend picked out for me. I do admit it has gotten me laid.

Im being serious... Is it wrong to go Metro?

I happen to like the metro. Paris's is confusing, but once you get the hang of it, moving through the French capital is a breeze.

Yeah i look metro when I wear the clothes my Icelandic friend picked out for me. I do admit it has gotten me laid.

You let a friend pick out clothes for you? Dude, that makes you 98% metro.

Do they have facial and chest hair? Is their perfume called "a bit of beer I've spilled on myself this morning"? Do their once-white T-shirts say "NASCAR ROCKS"?

If no, how do you tell one from a woman?

Rub their crotch before you go to bed with them.

Roflmao!

Metro... sex.. I can think of a few more romantic places than that :p

Yeah i look metro when I wear the clothes my Icelandic friend picked out for me. I do admit it has gotten me laid.

Why else would I do it? Apart from knowing I look damn good and it feels comfortable.

Oh and putting up with the "(Blouman) you're pretty gay hey?"

You let a friend pick out clothes for you? Dude, that makes you 98% metro.

A lot of married men have their wives picking out clothes for them?

But then again I'm not married and either go shopping for myself or run it though a few girl friends before deciding, it helps to know if people think you also look good in something.

Why else would I do it? Apart from knowing I look damn good and it feels comfortable.

Oh and putting up with the "(Blouman) you're pretty gay hey?"

Her clothes feel no where as comfortable as my baggy jeans with a plain oversized Tshirt. but that's just for going to class. going out i wear the nice stuff even if it fits too tight (what she calls right)

You let a friend pick out clothes for you? Dude, that makes you 98% metro.

Always have your female friends pick out your club clothes.

We're here! We're not Queer! But we're Close! SO GET USED TO IT!!

What's this about homosexuality, heterosexuality and metrosexuality? Sexuality just is, and I see nothing wrong with it.

Just grin and bare it (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4i5rnAI_e4), huh?

Metrosexuals who A. either want to enjoy the gay lifestyle without the intercourse, or are too afraid to take that last final step into the gayness.

Either way, they're idiots.

I wonder when it became such a bad thing for men to do things like...care about how they look.

People can overdo it.

IMO, sexuality is a hollow basis for a lifestyle - hetero, homo, metro, whatever. Find something that's got more substance to it.

Real Men (TM) know that personal hygiene is for sissies! :p

and how to rebuild a carburetor by hand. Blindfolded. While fending off hordes of rabid weasels.

How is it of any concern to you how much time someone spends on his own appearance?

It's not, I'm just expressing my own personal opinion.

That's a pretty critical life skill, to be fair.

xD

this was probably the wrong topic for you, buddy ol' pal

I wonder when it became such a bad thing for men to do things like...care about how they look.
Since the dawn of time.


Real Men (TM) know that personal hygiene is for sissies! :p
The only personal hygiene for men is a shower. A proper high-flow shower that uses enough water to last a European family a week. With soap, not that silly gel lube.

Using deodorants is unmanly, and even touching perfume is outright gay.

Thats homophobic.

...It's alright to hate metrosexuals because their not really people.

there *dum dum dum* liberals.

Thats homophobic.
Nah, I'm OK with gays. They know who they are, we know who they are.


...It's alright to hate metrosexuals because their not really people.
Indeed. Who are they? They're not women. They're not men. They're not gays. Are they people? I don't know. Do they themselves know who they are? Probably not.

LOL, that pretty much describes me...

OK, I use deodorant when I'm going out

Yeah, who the hell uses KY gel for showering?

It should be tight, how else are you going to show it off?

Waita minute why did I have the impression that you were in your late 30's early 40's?

Either way, they're idiots.

Cheers man.

What about cologne?

Dude, you must reek.

I can very easly.

Most of them dont wear that much makeup either.

And you'd know how exactly?

I'm finding it difficult to type a proper reply to this thread because I'm worried I'll accidentally smear my recently-applied moisturiser all over the keyboard, and maybe my nice designer shirt, too.

That's a drag queen not a metrosexual.

Meh.
I'm sure that metrosexuality is against Milan City Police code. Expecially art.71, which specifies that nudity and obscenity on public transportation isn't allowed.

Edit: by the way, metrosexuality should mean "sex of the mother" ("metro-" stems from greek "meter", that is mother). Is this a thread against preggo pr0n?

Usually cheaper than taking a cab.

thread should have ended here tbh

HUsh you, the media came up with this word, it is not up to them to worry about what words really mean but rather what catchphrase works best.

What about cologne?
About what?

Real men think it's a French insult.

So that's how the mysterious metrosexual gender is born...

I'd go so far as to say that metrosexuality isn't just not wrong, it is one of the single greatest forces for good in the universe. Here's why:

Guys who flip their shit about the horror of metrosexuality are, without exception, lousy lays. I know this because of a highly scientific anecdotal study.

Those metro-hating dudes might otherwise actually manage to take a girl home and have really bad sex with her. But now, because metrosexuality exists, all a gal has to do is ask a guy about his feelings on metrosexuality and hey-presto! Disaster avoided.



In all seriousness, though, metrosexuality is great. I like when people let their own personal sense of style, and not society's rules about "make-up is for GIRLS," decide how they're going to preen. Lots of guys look damn hot as metros, so you boys work that shit.

I doubt you'd persuade many men to wear make up. What's the point of it anyway? Most birds look beter without it. Or with very little.

I doubt you'd persuade many men to wear make up.
I doubt you get out much, if you think I'd have to "convince" them.

Hell, after the first Pirates Of the Caribbean movie came out, you couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting a hot straightboy in eyeliner.

Should have said guys that don't do it anyway. I know guys who wear it and there sexuality is... questionable. Most of 'em are open about being gay/bi/curious. I've worn it, that don't mean I'm gay, does it?

I'm not interested in convincing anybody, male or female, to dress a certain way, particularly not based on something as stupid as their gender.

And no, wearing makeup won't turn you queer, nor is there any connection between wearing makeup and being gay. (PS: "questionable" is only a good word to use about somebody's sexuality if YOU are the one asking questions about it, and the only reason you'd be asking questions should be if you're interested in fucking them, so just think on that a tad.)

And just to take it the next step, do remember that cross-dressing is more common among heterosexual men. So wearing a skirt won't just not make you gay, it might make you straighter!

Sure you're not talking about emo's here?

EEEEEEEEW, I'm quite positive. Emo is easy to identify because it includes coloring in one's fingernails with black pen and wearing t-shirts for intentionally terrible bands.

True, but a metrosexual does not necessary wear makeup or eyeliner. They would be using many beauty products but doesn't mean they will use eyeliner. And imo some emo's don't look to bad.

Please stop trying to make me look gay. I've worn a dress too. *Buries head in hands* IIRK(in a play).

True, and I don't believe I claimed otherwise.

On this we must simply agree to disagree. But that's probably because I have a particularly violent gag reflex associated with people who stare mournfully across a lake whilst looping Matchbook Romance on their Ipod.

I'm not quite sure that such a thing as an Emo exists?

I mean I know there is a genre of music called emo, but do you mean fans of this genre? I quite like reggea, but does that mean I can be labeld as a reggea?

Please let this catch on. Please let this catch on.

I've long insisted that the great failing of Western society is our practice of hiding male legs from public view. Granted, some guys don't have nice legs (just like some girls don't), but the most responsible course would be to CHECK to make sure in each individual case. Hence, all men should wear a gown slit up past mid-thigh at least once to allow us all a chance to evaluate his gams.

True, and I don't believe I claimed otherwise.

No I don't think you did, apologies. Sometimes I just say stuff for the hell of it :)

Of course and I won't be trying to change your opinion at all. I'm not saying I like the style but some and only some do.

I believe it is the same as grunge, in which their is a way to dress emo and grunge. Now in regards to reggea it is not the same as you can't really dress up as classical but I believe emo is a style as well.

I don't think I know what a metrosexual is. Is it someone whose sex life consists of imagining an underground train going in and and out of a tunnel?

No, it's someone having sex with a free (as in gratis) newspaper (http://www.metro.lu/).

Well you know I was just being pedantic. However I do like emo music, I get that some of our youth have head problems, and I just don't think taking the piss out of somebody because of the music they listen to, the way they dress or the fact that they may be depressed is a good thing at all.

Well I must admit I like some of the music too. And yes I think sometimes they do deserve the piss taken out of them especially when their so called depression is only because it goes with the package or when they talk about being an individual and how the poor schmucks around them are all conforming, this coming from people who are wearing the same thing as all their little friends are.

Heheh! Metrosexual is just a strange label to use to mean a man that looks after his apperance, wears nice cloths, uses product (which may or may not include makeup for men), and finds his image to be of higher imprtance than lots of things.

I'm a strange old bird, I have never been botherd at all about any of this, so to me metrosexulality seems a strange and facinating thing.

Ahhh you mean typical teenage behaviour? I think that it is inevitable that differant teenagers will clash and take the piss out of each other.

For an adult to take the piss though, well it's not very grown up is it.

True, but I am still young enough to be able to get away with it. Not to mention I think if they can give it then they are old enough to take it. Especially if said teenagers are 17-18.

Heheh! Metrosexual is just a strange label to use to mean a man that looks after his apperance, wears nice cloths, uses product (which may or may not include makeup for men), and finds his image to be of higher imprtance than lots of things.

Who get a lot of shit for doing so, but as I said to my mates who had been giving me shit all day about it, Saturday, You are just jealous that you don't look after your appearance as much has I do and wish you looked this good.

Especially since the money spent making oneself look pretty could be far more positively spent on beer.

Heh so taking your words in your post above, and the one above that, what do we see? Hypocrisy in action ladies and gentalmen.

It's fine for you to take the piss out of emo's, but you don't like it when people take the piss out of you?

But with their clean shaved faces and pounds of makeup, how am I to tell a metrosexual from a woman?

Girls have boobs. Problem solved.

Yeah that sounds about right haha

But as I say I can give it so I expect to get it back and should be able to take it back. No I still don't like it but that's why I try to come up with something to throw back at them.

Girls have boobs. Problem solved.

I still think my suggestion is better.

Excuse me, but WHAT?!

I was specifically and clearly told that getting older means I get to rag on the young people and their hair styles, clothing, rock music, and other various youthful foibles.

If this is not the case then I simply refuse to continue aging any more.

That is a privalige of age, this is true.

Personaly though the way I approach life has much to do with the golden rule, and specificaly how I treat the youth is I remember what it was like for me to be one.

I just could not in all good conciousness treat them in way that would make their little hormonal heads burst.

Sorry now that you have gotten older the rules have changed. Goalposts have a habit of changing in the middle of the game of life.

What though when you 'give it' to those unable to 'take it'?

Well as I say I only give it to those who can take it, and I think if theu can give it then they can take it.

So if they aren't ragging on me or one of my mates then I am not going to bother myself with ragging on them back. Unless they say something stupid in which case I will attack their statment rather than them
