Could go down to the local truck stop and see if you can get a little bit of kingpin grease. Guaranteed, that's gonna moisturize your nut sack. Long-term, too.
Metrosexuals stink. On a more serious account: You don't need to buy moisturizers to (take) care about yourself
You stink. >:[ I'm not saying you have to buy moisturizer. I'm just saying too many men assume just because they remedy a little dry skin, that they're automatically tagged as metro.
It simply is the beginning of the end and men know this subconsciously, that's why they are afraid of starting with moisturizer (it leads to harder stuff!) :biggrin:
i had no idea that skin care was linked to metrosexuality. i always thought it was mostly about hairstyle and fashion choices.
I wouldn't even know whether I have a dry skin or not. Seems like some sort of "modern disease" to me, but I don't wanna offend the people here who are suffering from dry skin.
i don't see how a beard would get in the way of moisturizing anything other then the face? am i missing something here? not that i regularly use moisturizers, but when i worked outdoors on heavy equipment and when my skin was exposed to harsh chemicals, most of us who worked those kinds of jobs regularly used some kind of moisturizing lotions on our hands and arms.
Faelixx just gave a solid explanation why a man smearing moisturizer on himself on a regular basis is a metroman :biggrin: I like the word smearing.
for the price of a two point jar of exfoliant cleanser, i can buy a 50 pound back of rock salt, a couple of gallons of liquid soap, a bottle of cheap colone, and still have change left over for a sanwich and a cup of coffee, at $tarbux. and put it in two pound jars and sell them each for the price of making another batch. of course you still need a moisturizer after using that stuff. but one you find at the dollar store is as good as another. you can also use non-alkaline soaps that dry the skin less to begin with. but i love my paw print soap, made by contactcaffeine.com
no, you kind of said the opposite. not that moisturizing = metrosexuality, but that the two are generally associated together for some reason. personally, i never heard the comparison.
I am a metroman because I use the tube (London underground system.) My op was slightly trollish,I give you,but I also kind of meant it because I sometimes used to get dry red skin around my forehead and temples.That's when I started to use a simple everyday moisturiser.I like to have a bit of beard growth but recently haven't been trimming and it has gone slightly wild.So I'm not sure what to do right now.Moisturiser and beard? An ugly bathroom experiment is on the way.
I think if you have a rough patch of skin after shaving or just for some other reason it makes sense to smear something on it. That isn't what makes a metroman nor does buying a bottle of moisturizer for chronicly dry or irritated skin makes you a commercial turd. When you do it though because commercials tell you you are not a normal man without it or that you will feel so much better if you apply it everytime after showering, while your skin does not appear to be dry or irritated at all then yeah, you're buying into the same kind of crap that is causing those cluttered female bathrooms.
