The Metrosexual Male

The Metrosexual male...all about him and what it means to be him. The term Metrosexual has a lot of stigma attached to it, but most of it is completely un-true and down right ignorant.

Not only do you have a right to look and feel good, but you should! Looking good, having style, a nice haircut, and sexy cologne has nothing to do with your sexuality...if fact it has more to do with the kind of guy you are.

What kind of guy are you? Are you a self loathing pig? Do you sit around and do nothing with yourself all day and wonder why women are not attracted to you? Do you make excuses for everything and take no responsibility for yourself?

OR... do you exercise..even a few times a week, do you watch what you eat....do you take note of the details of your body? Do you notice that the bathroom does not magically clean itself? Do you attempt to organize your room? ALL OF THIS reflects in how you look, smell, walk, talk and eat!

Metro-sexual men LOOK GOOD! But it does not stop there, you have to maintain your cleanliness in areas other than just your cloths. If you wear a pair of Guess Jeans, a nice styled Affliction shirt and a nice pair of squared toed boots...great! But, are you just wearing the "I look good and care about myself Uniform"? Or do you actually live that way. WOMEN will be able to tell...and usually very quickly.

So, lets start in the bathroom. You take your cloths off and your standing at the bathroom sink with the mirror in front of you. What do you see? Look at yourself and exam your face to start. Don't just look at yourself in terms of recognizing yourself... look at the details of your face. Do you have black heads or white heads? Are your pores big? Do you get razor burn when you shave? Is your skin oily or dry? Are their lines or wrinkles anywhere?

Look at your eyebrows. Is there one big eyebrow or are there two like there should be? (Remember, do not pluck your eye brows... only remove the hair that is between the eyebrows, above the nose...plucking your eyebrows is totally gay and very unattractive...unless of course your gay, which then it is all good). Women do not like plucked eye brows, but they do like stray hairs in the middle to be cleaned up.

If you have white or black heads, buy a face wash that will remove them. Typically a facial scrub acts as an exfoliate. Exfoliates open your pores and remove all the dead skin and black heads.

You can also squeeze them out yourself by getting a mirror that enlarges your reflection so you can see the pores more deeply...they are very cheap. Once you clean the pores, use a good face wash that is also a moisturizer. This is very important!!! Your skin, especially your face, must be moisturized.... it will make sure you age slowly and give you a nice healthy look.

If your pores are big, you can buy a facial wash that minimizes the pore size. This is good! No one wants to see huge hole's all over your face.

If you get razor burn when you shave, buy 10 packs of disposable razors and get shaving cream for sensitive skin. The disposable razors will help reduce irritation because each time you shave, you are using a brand new razor. There are aftershave lotions that will reduce the redness from the aftershave burn as well.

If your skin is oily, buy a face wash that is for oily skin. There are a ton of them that will help moderate oil on your face while still moisturizing you. There are also blotting papers you can use throughout the day to remove oil from your face. If you have very oily skin and acne, you may want to see a doctor to get some antibiotics to clear you up.. If the acne is severe, dont worry!...there is accutane which works every time...especially for cystic acne.

If you have lines or wrinkles around the eyes, get an anti wrinkle eye cream and a face cream for wrinkles. Even if you do not have wrinkles on the face now, start using something NOW before you do get them. Moisturizing is key. When the skin is dry, and you smile or frown, the expression lines start to stay because there is no elasticity in your skin so it can't bounce back.

Now lets talk about your mouth.:) You have to brush your teeth every day! I know that seems obvious, but a lot of guys think they are fine or are running late and they just leave for work. This is completely disgusting and even though you don't think so... everyone notices!!

Brush your teeth all over for at least 2 minutes. Make sure your toothpaste has Triclosan in it. This will keep bacteria and infections in and around your teeth away. It will also reduce your gums from bleeding. I recommend Colgate with whitening. It has all the ingredients you need plus whitening. Brush at the minimum when you wake up and before you go to bed. Get a teeth whitening kit. Women do NOT like to see yellow or brown teeth. Would you want to kiss a girls mouth with dirty brown and yellow teeth? NO. You should floss after eating as well...food stuck in between your teeth will cause bacteria and start to smell. No one wants to kiss booty breath. ALWAYS keep a pack of strong peppermint gum or Altoids on you.

The hair. Make sure you get a modern hair cut. Keep up on styles by observing guys in public, but especially on TV...not that you care what guys on TV look like, but SHE DOES. You can choose so many different styles AND colors... yes I know that scares some of you but trust me, some of you will look a 1000 times better with a lighter or darker hair color to go with your new white teeth and cleaned up, moisturized face.

If you are unsure what to get, go to a salon like Aveda, or google salons in your area...do not visit a "barber". That is just a butcher shop for regular, BORING, un-attractive, simple guys that do not care about themselves or how others view them...especially women. Tell the stylist you would like something new and modern...with some texture...kind of messy but still stylish with the right product. They will know exactly what to do.

SWEET. So by now you should have a hot hair style, clean, clear, tight skin, two eyebrows, white teeth and some nice, styled cloths.

Underneath all that.Now we get dirty and a little explicit.

Pubic hair! Yikes! LOL. OK, first things first. You can shave it all or just trim it up...but you can't do nothing! I know you may think different but women and men both are pretty grossed out when you go down to give a little lovin and you have to stop a bunch of times because pubic hairs are in your mouth or in your teeth...AND, when your down there, no one wants to smell anything except maybe the body wash you just used to scrub your ass crack, taint and under your sack. PERIOD. Un-managed pubic hair and foul, sour smell coming frumunda is completely out of control and I would stop right there and call someone else to get freaky with.

Guys you have to use a hand mirror.... put it on the floor and squat down over it so you can see what you look like from your balls, and your taint to the inside of your ass cheeks. This is very important...it is what she will see! If you are very hair, you need to trim. Get a beard trimmer for 15$ at Wal-Mart. They usually come with attachments. Put a number 4 on it and go to town. Put a number 2 on it and do the area below your stomach. Trim down the hair on your balls and around your dick and then use a razor and shave your balls. This will not only look good, but it makes it a lot nicer for the person going down on you.

If your hair all over your body, use the number 4 or 6 and go to town. Women do like like hair...but only some of it. No one wants to have sex with a gorilla!

When you shower...lift a leg and make sure your cloth, hand or loofah are very lathered and wash your entire crotch area, including under the balls, the taint area and your ass crack. This is not the time or place to cut time!!! You have to go over it a few times, use your bare hand and feel the sides of your ass crack, make sure it is completely clean, really rub the taint area and under your ball sack and the sides as well. I know this seems obvious but guys quickly do a run over or assume the running water along with the soap from washing their hair is good enough since it passed over the area on the way down. NOT good enough guys... you have to get in there.

Hands and Toe Nails.

This one isn't too complicated. Just trim your hands and toe nails. But look...don't do it in her bathroom, or if in yours, do it over the toilet so the nails fall off in to the toilet so you can just flush it after. Pick up the left over ones and make sure you flush them too. Don't clip your nails on the couch or in your recliner... don't leave your nail trimmings on the coffee table...DON'T leave ANYTHING that she will have to clean up. Trust me...all the things she has to do around the house is filed away in her brain and she will use it against you at times of war...they are VERY good at this...YOU must NOT supply the ammo.

Women typically go and their nails done, and/or get pedicures. I know this is free time for you since she is gone, but go with her once in a while. BE A MAN, not a pussy. It takes a MAN to sit in a chair with her, regardless of what anyone thinks and get a pedicure with her. Listen guys... NO ONE CARES...trust me. Women think it is so sweet and wish their man would go with them too...this makes you look VERY good :) And seriously... pedicures and manicures are amazing. You get an awesome massage on your feet, calves and forearms and you get a glimpse of what women go through to look good. Hey, you love the way the nails feel on your back right? She works hard to keep herself up...even if you don't have too, she does and you know you like it... all women want is for you to NOTICE it and appreciate all the hard work they go through.

Remember, she will not want to be sleeping next to you and feel hammer toes with claws and calluses all over your feet, rubbing up on her soft legs and feet. It will turn her off. The SAME applies to your hands. A lot of guys get very dirty hands and nails... girls dont want your hands and fingers going in certain places when your hands and fingers are dirty or when your finger nails arent trimmed! Think about it. You know how a women's apartment or house always feels so much cozier than yours? Every blanket feels incredibly soft... the pillows melt your brain...everything smells like heaven... think of their minds that way. When they fall asleep in that soft, warm environment, they feel that way too...their bodies are that soft and warm too... and believe it or not, they want to feel that when they cuddle up with you...why do you think women like other women so often?

A lot of women will not ever say anything because they are sneaky...they want to wait a long time before they start telling you that you STINK and have bad breath and you don't take care of your body...but eventually, they will. They are always thinking it...but they rarely say it. They are hoping and waiting for you to grow up.

Metro-sexual men, look good, have style, smell good, and make an attempt at the very least, to understand their partner. This is key, especially with women. The house doesn't clean itself right? Food doesn't jump in the pan does it? Do your shirts walk to the washer and jump in? Chances are, she is doing A LOT for you, in addition to her own job, school, kid(s), etc. She's not asking for a metal, just for you to recognize it, verbalize it, appreciate it... AND SHOW IT! A man would want a metal, a women just wants the meaning of the metal....what does that mean? It means she is a creature driven by feeling. Although it is completely unimportant to you, it is extremely important to her.

Guys, your private parts are on the outside. Hers are on the inside. Remember that, because that is how it works with their feelings. We can stick it anywhere, get off and be satisfied. She needs to be satisfied on the inside first, then she will want you sexually. If you do the things mentioned above, take care of your body, think about more than a video game, show your feelings, appreciate what she does for you and TELL her... you will have a much smoother relationship and a lot more sex.
