    Theres supposed to be a word for everything, right? If so, what is the word/term for someone who is "obsessed with apperance". I thought vain, but thats not it, or narcistic, but no. Anyone got any ideas?

    A narcissist is the term, is it? Although that's more so someone who loves how they look. Vain is probably better.

    I was just talking abut me being narcissistic. Vain is the obvious word with looks, fashion etc.


    Metrosexuality is caused by vanity.

    a hair dressing chain with a sinister plan to make mullets and femullets cool. I think they do something to your head while your in there to make you think that mullets are acceptable.

    On a semi-related note, have you ever noticed how all of the once-popular-male-clothing stores have gone...... well.... metro now? Pink everywhere, light bules and yellows and greens and whatnot. I can't shop in these places anymore. Time to find new clothes stores methinks.

    Ah well, black is good I guess. But I don't want to end up looking like one of those lads who hang out under bridges and don't shower for weeks on end. I need variety - but not metrosexual-borderline-gay-clothes.
