B: " Huh? What men? Superman? What is that? I don't know-lah "

A:

The conversation above is an example of how majority have in mind about metrosexual men. Most of the people are not familiar with the term metrosexual men. Basically, metrosexual men are men with very clean image, very concern with their own appearance and willing to spend an amount of money and time on their appearance.

According to Wikipedia, the term "metrosexual" was created by Mark Simpson in his book "Here come the mirror men". Normally most of us will misunderstood metrosexual men as gay. But the fact is that metrosexual men are not gays!


They are just men who are a little bit of feminine and masculine at the same time. In other words, they are straight men who are over the top in appearances.

Let us give everybody a clearer picture of the differences between a metrosexual and a non-metrosexual man.

obviously, he's a non-metrosexual ...

... while he definitely is one.

A very good example for metrosexual men is the ever so famous David Beckham.

Yes guys, David Beckham is a metrosexual man !! *gaps*



. . . . and so is Jung Ji Hoon aka Rain from Korea !

..... and so are many other good looking celebrities ! Are you amazed?

We guess you all by now have a draft idea what are metrosexual men. So, what do these metrosexual men do when they are free? They go to the nail salon! We are not kidding you. Men these days are doing manicure like the ladies. We discovered from here that 64% of the male in North America regularly paint their nails with a colored polish!

Other than that, perhaps they might be busy shopping in the malls. Do you know that men these days love shopping as well? According to About.com, men make 3.6 shopping trips per week while women are 4.1 . The shopping gap is not that far away between two genders after all! If you ask them,they can easily name all of the designers' name and crave for their products. Or you might spot them in this particular boutique as shown below in South Africa that caters wardrobe for them.

The traditional definition of men are slowly fading away. As we defined earlier, metrosexual men are very concern about their appearances unlike non-metrosexual men. So this explains why metrosexual men too shop for care products when they are free.

What we mean by care products are hair care, skin care and beauty products as well. Here are some examples.

Men's skin care to avoid them looking like the moon's surface.

Men's perfume to ensure they attract the butterflies instead of flies.

Men's hair care product to avoid them visiting Yun Nam Hair Care.

We even found there is men's cosmetic concealer stick !! It is call The Men's Pen.


Now, who says make up are only for women ?

We actually did a lot of research on metrosexual men and some of us even asked her best friend for her opinion in metrosexual men. What we can conclude is that girls like to be friend with metrosexual men because they think that metrosexual guys can share their knowledge on face wash, skin care and fashion with girls because they are just like ladies spending time on shopping, facial and spa. This is perhaps what motives them to be more metrosexual than before? We're guessing it is ! Well, there are a lot of advantages to have a metrosexual boyfriend.

1. They are clean. You do not need to shout them for dirty underwear or socks on the bed.

2. They can cook! And they will clean the table and wash the dishes after dinner.

3. They can dress up with own personal style.

4. They will have brilliant ideas of surprises to you for all the occasion!



5. They live quality life.

6. They actually remind you when MEGA SALES is here !! and date you for shopping !

Ladies, are you hoping for miracle one day hoping your partner changed into a metrosexual ? Well, fear not ! With the upcoming trend of metrosexual men, we think that your man will soon become one ! ( at least that is what we think! no guarantees provided from us !)
