Metrosexual Man?

Recently on my way to work I noticed a young 'lady' get onto my carriage. Now I say lady, but I spent most of the journey trying to work out if it was a man or women. The person in question had skinny jeans on, longish hair, clean shaven. Now normally the hips, or the signs of an Adam’s apple would be a giveaway, but both were absent from this person. It got me thinking about the outward appearances of men & women, and how these have changed dramatically over the last 25 years. There was a time where you knew where you stood. Men had beards, facial hair, maybe the occasional earring, chest/body hair, and clothes that were vastly different to their female counter parts. A defining point and change in the landscape was the event of the New Romantic movement. For the first time men wore make-up, & wore feminine, flamboyant clothing. But the major defining moment was the arrival of culture club, and one Boy George, back in the mid eighties. I can still remember the newspapers the next day, as the media, and it seemed the whole country was trying to work out if Boy George was a Man or women. From their we have progressed quite a way. We now have make up for men, products that can aid a man to remove all (and i do mean all) his body hair. Health companies now offer waxing for men, and their have been cases of men, like their female counterparts, developing anorexia. Also it is now persona non gratis to sport a beard. What is wrong with a man looking like a man? I don't have a problem with men who have facials, massages etc, or who use moisturisers, as Black men have been using these for years. But shaving your body hair, and wearing make up and sarongs? What's funny to me is that the women that I have asked the question: Do you wear make-up for your self, or for men, and would you stop wearing it if your man objected?, have all replied that they wear make-up for their own self-confidence, and they would continue to wear it regards of a mans opinion, are often the same people who voice displeasure that a man is sporting a beard., or has body hair. I think that every man that can grow a beard should do so. Regardless of the feminine reception they receive. If you don't like it kool. At least you have the balls to grow one, despite the public/feminine reception you may illicit. It seems to this man that the whole anti-man movement has been pushed by a media that doesn’t welcome the differences between the sexes, and women who like feminine looking men like Brad Pitt. Where are the real men at?
