I'm probably defined as a metrosexual, but god I hate that expression.

There shouldn't be a stigma attached for a guy looking after themselves.

Same here, people would probably call me a metrosexual if they saw me out but to be honest I think its a bit pathetic calling myself a metrosexual, I'm just me ... ya know

ps. not saying that people that say they are metrosexual are pathetic, its just not my thing

i agree completely...it should just be something people do because they give half a shit about themselves...

Yeah, I'd much rather call non-metros yobbos, bogans or slobs (slang in Australia for your red neck types) than call people that look after themselves a title.

That makes sense for sure. I don't know why everyone feels there has to be a classification for everything. I don't go around calling myself a metro, but I definitely fit into some of the categories that "define" it.

guys ur misin the point - its not about definin that some of us r metros and we call ourselves this way every day... no its not like that... the word metro is more kinda a cover up coz in todays ignorant society every guy who starts tryin to look better and comfortable with his body get labeled with the annoyin "gay" tag...
also i think it helps a lot to the guys who thought someday that maybe they r gays after they discover their love for fashion and stuff...im tellin u once i thought i m gay, seriously, but i couldnt understand it coz i like chicks and i date, make love and pamper them a lot... so as for me it helped me a lot after i learned that im actually in a metro-thing - it made myself really more confident...
but dont think i call myself metro every time its not about callin yourself amth but tryin to know as much as possible about your character...

too many guys claim to be metro when they really ARE NOT.

Holy Shit. I never thought I'd see Cobalt post in COR. You must be bored bro.

im sorry but is this refer to my post???...

regarding the hair thing - i was lucky to be born to not so hairy dad so i dont really have that problem... im 20 and i almost dont have hair on my chest just a little bit... chicks that i was in bed with them told me they liked my hairless and smooth body...
if we r already talkin about it i shave my armpits usually - it makes me feel more comfortable especially here in israel when we have summer most of the time [+27 and more] and the humidity levels r very high so it takes a couple of seconds to start sweatin when u go out on a hot day...

ps: always forgot to ask u guys [refer to metros] - whats up with your folks with the fact being u a metro? as for me - my parents dont really realize that they cant try to do it - actually they r too conservative to talk to them about that i m pretty sure they consider me gay sometimes when they they see me goin out with some "bright colors"-wear or smth... my dad probably feels smth wrong about me - he always wanted me to be like the typical macho-man... thats why most of the time i am tryin to stick around with my mom... thats why i think my dad will never understand me [yea my dad-som relationship is not so good as it should be... we r kinda faraway wrom each other in our opinions and outlook...]

was wonderin if some1 here also has that "prob"...?

edit:
was thinkin about it yesterday and... there is smth in callin yourself metro - an effort to try not to be like every1 else in our structural world when ppl r afraid of being sm1 what they feel they really r... so there is actually smth in realizin that u r not like the majority btu smth different and special...

^no i wasnt referring to ure post.

i just meet a lot of ppl at work and other places, and a lot of guys tell me they are metrosexual yet they look as if they just came out of the hospital after being hit by a train.

was goin home by a bus yesterday and heard accidently some buisness-man (yea funny he was in the bus) but anyway he was talkin about openin some new cosmetics-chain of many shops and stuff like that for the metrosexual society... he said smth like "i know its a concept of the 2004 in us and i have alot of material about it..."
lol seems like they r doin good since guys like us started to go shopin...

^That business man sucks, he needs to do his homework. He's obviously never heard of Jean Paul Gaultier; mens makeup;
