Has it already?

Can Hatrack overcome the hurt feelings, overlook the fact that person 'A' feels this way about The Gap while person 'B' feels the other way about Pierre Cardin?

Have people left as a result of the recent uproar, already?

Or, is this community different?

I honestly want to know.

No clever googling, and no cod.

I win.

[Smile]

Besides, it's not a metrosexuality thread unless you mention exfoliation.

I've become less scornful of meterosexuals as of late. I bought a turtleneck and even tried out a loofah.

Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :

What's wrong with turtlenecks? [Mad]

Posted by imogen (Member # 5485) on :

It's cruel to the poor neckless turtles?

Posted by Frisco (Member # 3765) on :

Storm, you meterosexuals are all the same. Shouldn't you be shopping at A&F, anyway?

I tried to be a metrosexual, but have you priced makeup recently???? Let alone the hair care products! Whew!

Besides, most of this stuff interferes with my diet. I mean, by the time I was done using styling gel with apricot, and the oatmeal face scrub, I was thrown right out of ketosis.

And I'm sorry but thong underwear on men is meant for special occasions only. [Wink]

I bet you don't even shave your pits. [Roll Eyes]

You have to pluck to really get it right.

Posted by Frisco (Member # 3765) on :

Nah, I just have the lady that does my Brazilian wax do them.

Posted by Chamrajngar (Member # 3242) on :

lol. anyway, i don't think all that may people left. And if they did, they're probobly just uncomfotable about themselves. Did that sound gay? [Frown]

lol.

So if you're a girl and don't do any of those things, and you have safety glasses, are you just a tomboy or does metrosexual apply?

Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :

Girls doing metrosexual things just makes them girls. Girls not doing metrosexual things makes them in need of a sex change operation.

Storm, someday we're going to see that in the quotes sections of Readers Digest.

Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :

I tried sex on the metro once.

It tore me apart from Hatrack for 2-10, with time off for good behavior.

Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :

You know how some people call 6:30 Half-six? And Scottish people say their short i more like a short e? So there was this scottish girl visiting my in-laws. They started calling it 5:90.

Thank you very much for progagating sterotypes and gender roles. After all, females are allowed to be like males, while the opposite isn't allowed. Females can wear pants--males can not wear dresses.

Are you serious? [Eek!]

I have never heard anybody say that.

I so very much want to see more kilt-wearing. There is little that can be more attractive than the full regalia on a guy.

Please, Men of Hatrack, explore the kilt option.

*waiting expectantly for my hugs, please [Smile]

I'm at Carnegie Mellon... our marching band wears kilts.... so they're quite in style here.

Posted by ClaudiaTherese (Member # 923) on :

Ah, then I must arrange a visit to Carnegie Mellon.

(I mean, seriously. Got any conferences on healthcare coming up?)

A style for all men. But there is nothing quite like a strapping young man in a kilt with good manners. The lad with good manners, that is. [Smile]

Kilts can be formal or casual, and are suitable for all occasions, from a bonfire to a wedding. From Dads taking the kid for a stroll to attending wild parties (with Hawaiian Punch!), men of body types great and small look good in the timeless kilt. For those of you with Scottish ancestry, find your tartan today. (I proudly wear the Cameron plaid of my beloved's family.)

Wear a kilt today! [Smile]

Mmmmm ...
