So what is a Metrosexual.....
I have actually been given a book on this.. why?... Maybe people are trying to tell me something??? Anyways: defined in this book...
METROSEXUAL\ me-(.)tro-seksh-(e-)wel/ n: 1: twenty first century male trendsetter 2: straight man with a heightened aesthetic sense 3: man who spends time and money on appearance and shopping 4: man willing to embrace his feminine side
So when I was in San Francisco last December having dinner with my cousins and this term was introduced to me, I was quite baffled. I find it strange that will all the media exposure and interaction with daily life that I would encounter this term that I have never heard of before. Definitely something that you would not find in a dictionary... But as I begin to expose this term to the people I know, it seems that in society and television and media, the Metrosexual man is making its way out... Still confused about what this exactly is??? not a fag, but not a man man.... so what, a girly man?? What every it is, it seems that the Metrosexual man has emerged in the twenty first century, and here in 2004, he is soon to become the pseudo icon of our modern time...
