# Not at all.
I'd never live with a metrosexual in a million and one fucking years. I think he has a clear complexion as he's generally preserved in alcohol. I don't know if you noticed the bottle of vodka he's clutching...

# I thought that was the half empty bottle of soy sauce

does he get his nails done?

# No, he has some sort of skin problem with his hands
to the point where his nails are coming off. Looks like leprosy.

# the bloke who invented the term metrosexual was the witness at my wedding
he's a friend of my wifes and spent the wedding dinner complaining how others had misapropriated his term.

# I can't remember
but he certainly gets excited by it all.

# yeah.
I find myself wandering round town shouting "PICK A SIDE!!" at people. They think I'm doing magic tricks.

# Well I do, and you're right.
They don't dress that way because they particularly want to. They dress that way because they think they should.

i've never met anyone like that who wasn't a shallow twat. They'll quite happily follow fashion and trends blindly, because everyone else is doing, and thats a seriously dangerous mentality to have.

# that's the thing though
why assign a strict label to a person?
A person may not be ready to identify themself as gay, or they consider themself bisexual, or they aren't gay at all, or they switch every 6 months, or they are a pre-op. There are a multitude of different ways of being, and it seems artificial and constraining to confine people to a given group.

# but theyre so happy to do it themselves.
It has nothing to do with a person's sexuality. It's a fashion thing.

# Fashion is just one of many things in this world that piss me off
in a totally irrational way.

It annoys me that so many people are so happy to just be labelled up, like you say. I know it's their choice and all, but it still doesn't fail to wind me up. It's like no-one wants to be individual anymore.
(I helped save b3ta! PMGT -Bacon., Sat 24 Sep 2005, 0:50, archived)
# gotcha.
but maybe some people don't think of fashion as something personally defining. They rely on their personality and mind to be unique, not their clothes.

# But herein lies my argument.
Most of them don't. I've never met a so called "metrosexual" who wasn't a totally shallow cunt. And I've met a lot of them. I go to university. It's pretty much a question of what you see is what you get. They're like peacocks. Show off your pretty colours to find a mate, and then thats it. Thats about all there is to life.

# yeah - I think it's come to mean that
but I think his original idea had something to do with a figure invented by mens magazines to sell clothes and perfume to.
