    well all i know is i cant watch rte 2 (network 2) around 6o clock. have missed the beginning of the Simpsons more than once because of the ingratiating goose-bump inducing twats presenting around that time.

    No man should spent more than 10 minutes getting ready.
    Shower , dressed, gel, boom done!

    Gel!!?? Well, la di da! Real men shave their hair so they don't have to do anything with it! :pac:

    Never kown a guy to get his eyebrows waxed or get a facial and I know a lot of metrosexuals, I sort of am one, sort of am not. A lot of the fella's in the gym I use go to the sun beds next door, fairly normal thing.

    I got my teeth whitened recently, don't see why it isnt just a normal thing. They werent bad to begin with but when you can have really nice white teeth why not?

    I can be ready for a night out in 10 minutes easy, trim the beard, shower, throw on me, job done. Got the head shaved into a 1 all over, so no effort there.

    I put the effort into looking after myself, work out, eat well, teeth whitening, moisturiser etc etc. I would never use fake tan, the stuff is one of the most vile inventions ever to come out. But this whole 'real man' thing is a load of ****e if you ask me. Congrats you have a hairy chest, ill still bench more than you! (Thats probably a lie)

    Women are llokin more butch and men looking more like wimmin every day . Hipster culture has a large part to play in it,

    Gone are the wonderful days when you knew a woman was a lesbian by her short hair and check shirt. And men looked like men, and if they didnt you knew they were gay.

    Can we just have the 1950s ideas of social norms back please

    Trim the beard? And you have a 1 all over the hair? So ether your a zach galifianakis look alike or by trim your beard you mean trim your stubble which again is a faily douchey thing to do.

    you still wearing your confirmation suit EC??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,710 ✭✭✭Balmed Out


    I dont understand it all. I have never seen the need to do more then shave, shower and wear clean clothes. These days young people seem to either be girls or really really ugly girls. I mean hair gel ? moistureiser? do the not have any self respect?

    I moisturise, you have no idea how bad your skin is until you start using the stuff.

    Not really, the majority of the males there are using it, that makes it relatively normal. Its quite commonplace. Bit of a tan or milk bottle colour skin, say what you want but its obvious which will pull more women.

    I meant stubble, how is having stubble douchey? So the only options are clean shaven or a full on beard? Full of ****e you are

    These metrosexuals aren't real men. They are in fact women.
    I enjoy looking at my hairy ass chest in the morning in front of the mirror, sometimes I give a tiger growl.




    GRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrr



    Also women who are into metrosexuals are paedophiles IMO because they are riding hairless boys


    Hair - FTW

    The majority of men in your gym are using tanning beds? That is messed up. It is not normal. Nobody I know does that. You're hanging out with the wrong crowd. Run away very fast. It's a tanning cult.

    Milk bottle colour skin? Aren't milk bottles the colour of milk? If not, do not drink that milk, it has been contaminated/tanned. Run away very fast.

    So meterosexuals are women?
    And other women are pedos because they want to ride them?
    Doesn't that in fact make them lesbos instead?
    Don't you like lesbians?

    A question for the women:do ye prefer men who dress up in red chinos or other eccentric coloured chinos and wear low cut tops showing their nipples or men who dress casually and not big into fashion?

    Sexuality has nothing to do with one's personal upkeep, cleanliness or fashion sense. I know one or two gay guys who have no fashion sense whatsoever and zero knowledge of good colour combinations. It's quite frustrating actually.

    "Dressing casually" is not an excuse to dress like a slob though. Wearing the same tracksuit bottoms everyday is probably not going to endear you to the classy wimmin.

    I like my men hairy but well groomed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 353 ✭✭yizorselves


    As a hairy well groomed man I say yes

    Traditional masculinity is going nowhere and has been in crisis for quite a while. Trust me, i'm good at spotting these things. We just dont live in a world that has a need for male dominance, we've dominated as a species, we've tamed nature. Now traditional masculinity (physical strength etc) is somewhat superfluous. Maybe part of the reason we had a construction boom was to preserve the masculine tradition. (construction being a male dominated industry) so bring on metrosexuality and enough of channeling the dying remnants of traditional masculinity into avenues which cause more harm than good. I'm Toddy Doody.

    Choosing the name Toddy Doody was a good start.

    The name's ironic. (i'd choose 'big larry' if i could do it all over, again)

    I've heard Beckham is to be included in the GB Olympic football squad. Team manager Stuart Pearce initially had no intention of selecting the overrated metro but apparently the president of the the FA the Royal horseface Wills requested that the plebiscite be included.

    I use a non alcohol based deep pore cleanser because alcohol dries out the skin and makes you look older.
