At dinner the other night, my date listed the calorie count of the main entrees, raising an eyebrow at my chicken Alfredo selection after he had ordered a salad. I saw him check his reflection in the silver water pitcher three times. During dessert, he looked deeply into my eyes and told me he thought what we have together is very special. It was our third date.

It was then that I realized why my dating life has been as mysterious as the Bermuda Triangle since I arrived in Washington. This city, unlike any other place I've lived, is a haven for the metrosexual. A metrosexual, in case you didn't catch any of several newspaper articles about this developing phenomenon (or the recent "South Park" episode on Comedy Central), is a straight man who styles his hair using three different products (and actually calls them "products"), loves clothes and the very act of shopping for them, and describes himself as sensitive and romantic. In other words, he is a man who seems stereotypically gay except when it comes to sexual orientation.
?Alexa Hackbarth, "Vanity, Thy Name Is Metrosexual," The Washington Post, November 17, 2003

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.

does anyone still remember the macarana? no, and no one will remember metrosexuals either.

I agree. It's already getting a little played out. Women don't like to compete with men for time in front of the mirror

42. metrosexual
A guy that you will find in public restrooms, checking his hair, clothes, etc. Girls love them for their style, but can never figure out if they are really straight, or completely gay. They can tell you if your ass looks big in the pants you are trying on.

tricky term for a guy who's actually straight, but everyone thinks he's gay 'cause he's so in touch with his feminine side.

ha ha ha :)

I'm surprised Bdjuf hasn't been in here, to try and rip on some peeps!

Metro is nothing new! women have been trying to get guys to dress like fags for years! :pimp

BTW: I have nothing against homosexuals, lsbians, metros etc! great people! :winkwink:

I thought that South Park episode was pretty funny.

the day a man can name the ingredients in my face products is the day i remove that man from my life forever.

most people calling themselves "metro" are not even close.

just because you put gel in your hair, doesnt make you metro.

people online, (forums in general) just try to fit in, when the metro thing began here, and its spreading.

see my other thrad called "The only reason I started calling myself a metro..."

before that, do you live with your parents?

I guess for those of us who were living this way before a proper term and definition were coined for the lifestyle look at it differently.

For some it's a fad, others, well, it's a lifestyle. :)
