If you like common sense things and are a guy (remember there is a difference between guy and male) this site will be a great exploratory journey. Keep in mind, the Euphoria link is a satirical slant, written by the Mayor’s production engineer (Kelly)
Be sure to check the link to the GL lexicon, if you don’t get a kick from these, you’re a Metrosexual.
BTW, if someone lives in a rural area and wears special boxer shorts, lather the OIl of Olay, carries a mirror, etc what is he called?

Whats whit the link.
Looks like some adverting to me
with
no Gator, not advertising, just a link to anyone that wants to check it out. I like links to sites from Dopers, they’re usually stuff I’d never find on my own and they’re generally informative/entertaining. Don’t want to check it out? Don’t click. Won’t bother my quality of sleep tonight
I didn’t take the test, but am sure I’d qualify:
I regularly attend the symphony. So what? I like good music, and my wife looks fabulous in a gown (I look pretty good in a tux, as well).
I use moisturizer. So what? I don’t want chapped hands or skin. It hurts.
I can cook really well (and not just grilled cheese sandwiches). So what? Good food, good wine (yes, I know how to order wine), and good conversation are all simple pleasures.
I have nearly 20 pairs of shoes (with shoe trees). So what? I take care of my belongings (shoe trees make the shoes last longer) and have have shoes to wear with different suits, or for different circumstances.
I pluck my eyebrows. So what? If I didn’t, I’d have a uni-brow and that looks ridiculous. My wife doesnt’ like it and neither do I.
I have alot of clothes. So what? I can dress myself and know what looks good on me. I want to look my best - who doesn’t?
I know how to decorate a room. So what? Who doesn’t want to be in comfortable, nice looking surroundings?
I also drive a pickup truck, regularly operate a chainsaw, can change the oil and spark plugs in the truck, fish (yes, I clean my own fish), hunt (not so much anymore, but sometimes I still go squirrel or rabbit hunting and clean and cook what I kill - usually I fal asleep sitting at the base of the tree), do all the repairs around the house (unless I know I can’t - then I call a professional. They need the work more than I need the aggravation), watch baseball (go O’s), and, if needed, can butcher a steer, fix a hay bailer, and dig post holes (you do have an auger, don’t you - I don’t do that shit with post hole diggers anymore).
My point is - labels of any kind tend to miss a tremendous amount. That’s why I don’t subscribe to labels and couldn’t care less whether anyone thought I was heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual (DING DING DING - we have a winner), or metrosexual. I’m just a guy.
Now that “metrosexual” has been used as a source of lame jokes during a recent run of “Mallard Filmore” and has even turned up in bad humor columns in my local paper, I think we can declare the term has hit cultural overload and is on life support.
I first heard of “metrosexual” in a Sunday NYT article earlier this year around the time Queer Eye For The Straight Guy debuted. It’s just another cultural or fashion blip in pop culture before the next one comes along. Just like the whole “wigger” nonsense; the fratboy attitudes, shitty tattoos, and crooked mesh ball caps of Ashton Kutcher and the “Jackass” set; or teenage girls wearing cheap tacky gold necklaces with their name or “#1” hanging from them and neon colored belly shirts with logos like “Porn Star” or “Hottie” on them.
I agree that it’s a dumb word. As others pointed out, ‘metrosexuals’ have been around for hundreds of years. “Fop,” “Dandy,” and “Dapper” are adequate to describe the phenomenon.

***I’ve gone five nights hiking carrying all my gear and food, without washing or shaving. I’ve spent four nights on the ocean in a sail-boat–with no fresh water for showers or a proper toilet. I’ve walked up a mountain, waded through swamp water and hiked under hail. ***

Dude, that sounds fun and all, but come on - it’s time to shower, dammit! We can smell you over here!
If you did screw the pasture, would you be a meadowsexual?
I hadn’t heard it until I saw Leno interview the Fab Five from “Queer Eye”.
I scored a One…because I need to use hairspray whenever I head out the door.
Best I could do was 2 out of 12, and that was by saying that I moisturize daily when I don’t. But hey, there’s nothing wrong with moisturizing. It helps maintain a youthful appearance, and with all we hear about discrimination against older workers in the corporate world, maintaining youthful appearing skin is worth doing.
Agreed. You know, I’ve seen gay domestic disputes on Cops. They weren’t exactly fashion shows. Torn, beer-stained t-shirts tended to be the norm.
Some straight people like to dress nice. Some gay people like to dress nice. Everyone else is a slob or somewhere in the middle. How does this relate to sexuality? Hell, to be honest, I think most of the clothes worn by the “fashion expert” on Straight Eye are downright ugly. My wife agrees.
I didn’t bother to take the quiz. As someone who buys his clothes at Wal-Mart and Target and doesn’t even use shaving cream, let alone moisturizer, I already know what I’m going to get.
Wow, I never thought someone could completely lose any chance of getting my vote so easily.
