Why are men considered gay if they shape their eye brows? Either pluck, shave, or wax them to clean them up, or create a total new look with their eyebrows. Like a pencil thin arched brow? Or when shaving their face and head they shave their brows off also? And the last part is, Why is it wrong for a guy to shave his body smooth, like arm pits, legs, chest, and belly and wrong for a woman to leave hair in those places. A woman with a hairy body is considered gross or lesbian. So why the double standard? Isn't a sexy smooth body male and female both sexy??

Because it is traditionally gay to primp you body like you are a woman. This isn't the only double standard between the sexes. You'd better get used to it.

I've been told that I'm metrosexual. I'm one of those that plucks my eyebrows, shaves my body hair, gets manicures, and has my hair done at a hair salon. Most of my male friends joke around and give me a hard time about it. Female reactions tend to be mixed, they either really like the fact that a man takes great care of himself or they think its a turn off and think that I'm 'high maintenance'.
Either way, be what you are. Stop worrying about what other people think.

I don't know about the other girls out there, but I appreciate a well groomed, yet still rugged looking man. A proper amount of man scaping is important to me, I do not however want to fight for mirror, have my man prettier than me or to obsess about his looks. As far as the hairy woman thing...I think that is really unattractive, I am not a lesbian but I think that it is a sign of hygiene but then again, I am a girly girl, to each his own. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable with yourself.

Try metrosexual. Women love a well groomed man, who is still a man. I know.

There's nothing wrong with it. It's who you are. It doesn't make you gay. Most people are just extremely closed-minded.

It's called stereotypes. But not to worry. Be yourself.
