I'm a homosexual man who spends very little time on his appearance. I spend more than I used to (I actually moisturize my face, use gel and conditioner, and take a weed wacker to my pubes every once in awhile now), but still very, very little.

What do they call that?

We don't have the Metro here, but we do have the Subway. And yes, I use it. You can say I'm a Subwaysexual.

Sexual weed wacker? lol

While I'm no Prince, I found out certain things (like solarium) can actually be quite nice. I used to laugh at beautyfarms, but now I'm kinda curious about them. What is it that they do in there though?

I am not sure I fit your profile of a metro man. I use creams and I trim, I shower and use deoderant. I would go to the gym if I had one, but I have not been in months!

Everyone makes their own scented dryer sheets, right?

It seems the term metrosexual isn't commonplace yet:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w...etrosexual says:
"The typical metrosexual is a young man with money to spend, living in or within easy reach of a metropolis – because that's where all the best shops, clubs, gyms and hairdressers are. He might be officially gay, straight or bisexual, but this is utterly immaterial because he has clearly taken himself as his own love object and pleasure as his sexual preference. Particular professions, such as modeling, waiting tables, media, pop music and, nowadays, sport, seem to attract them but, truth be told, like male vanity products and herpes, they're pretty much everywhere."

I'm less of one now, since I stopped with all the fancy hair.

I've been called one before. But it was always in humor....

I like to smell good, and I wear one ring on each ring finger (wedding ring and college/etc. ring).

That's about as close as I can get to being metrosexual.

only with my hair and facial toner products.

Never had my nails or toes done. Actually, don't dress 'expensive' either. It just seems impractical. How does a guy get ANYWHERE on time if he has to do all that?

I think we're called Tomboys. At least that's what I refer myself as.

I used to shave my underarms and manicure my pubes, but not so much anymore. I still trim the crime scene but I don't spend as much time on that these days. lol

Still, I like to dress nice and I use moisturizer and conditioner, so I don't know if that qualifies me.

There's no such thing as metrosexuals. That was just some bs companies came up with so they could sell lotions and what not to men.

And it's a joke for anyone to label a guy as something freakish because he actually dresses like he wants a job.

It's funny, I never thought i was until someone told me that I care about my appearance and that made me one.
