When will this "Metro" age end

When people realize that they have been duped by the rampant consumerism in a society where big corporations are king, they may begin to change these ideas. However, that will likely take a long time and a lot of luck.

Good call.

This is a great thread, in general.

My undergrad is philosophy--nice to see so many "meatheads" engaging in what the public thinks requires a pencil neck!

i think dressing good is one of the most important things a man can do. i always make sure that i am groomed from head to toe.
i have gone tanning, had body hair waxed at a spa, had high lights put in my hair at a salon and yes if i see a really nice shirt or pair of jeans at a store you`re damn right im going to tell my girlfriend or one of my buddies about it.
some people just have more style than others. thats ok, thats the way it should be. but please dont hate on the dude at the end of the bar just cause everything he has on matches, can tell you about Polo`s new winter line and the score of the yankees game, and that his shoes were prob more than your whole outfit!!!!!!:afro:

Simple answer is he hasn't undergone the maturation process and the underlying definition of identity that is inherent in this discussion.

If you listen to Elliott Smith and know the Polo lineup, you're either a fratty fucko who thinks a song will make you cool, you're a lifetime subscriber to Details and all of the other trash mens-mags, or you have never clarified the line between image and substance in your mind because you never knew it existed beyond the ads that sell you your mentality. Either way, you're so far from a real understanding of self that you're asking people on a bodybuilding board to make you feel alright for wearing whatever mask fits the occassion, a social doppleganger who needs anonymous reinforcement.

But you're not emo, you're pink shirt doesn't make you "metro," and the fact that you get laid doesn't make you well dressed.

You lift weights, your clothes match, and you get laid. Woo-hoo. You're about as unique as I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. This discussion is about something well beyond your vanity. Next?

BTW: Pimpish? WTF dork-ass **** are you spewing? And that's rhetorical, so save your response for your English teacher.

If you had half the ability to write a sentence that I had at half your age, I might have laughed at what you said. I just get a kick out of taking potshots at dumbasses late at night, to be honest.

The fact that I haven't been bitter in decades wouldn't matter to you, nor would the fact that I stopped being someone like you when I was 16, b/c you're are still caught in a game where you think you can define your masculinity by assuming the correct pose, vocab, style, and swagger from Details magazine.

And while your NRA jab, if you can call it that, was certainly heartfelt, i can only imagine how naive you are, based on that response. Let me guess which major city you reside in, and sway cultural tastes? Oh wait, that's not you is it? No, you're the guy who regurgitates everything he hears, while I'm the guy fucking YOUR girlfriend b/c she realized how stupid you are.

So you appropriate style, opinion and voice. Meanwhile, I create it. That's the first thing that makes us different. The other is I have killed people like you for fun. Sweet dreams, patty cake. You always looked nice in Pink.

I'm whatever makes you feel good about yourself, holmes.

I don't hate you. I feel sorry for you. I study people like you, and I fail people like you everyday.

Let's just do everyone a favor, and you stop pretending like you're some misunderstood metrosexual, and I'll stop picking on you, b/c we both know you're just a waiter in Texas who wears pink shirts and thought this thread was about you.

Yeah, my mommy is my 22-yr. old g/f and my "daddy" is my guitar that I play five nights a week. I went to college on an athletic scholarship, and I have two degrees. I stopped wearing pink shirts b/c they're fucking ugly and out of style in real cities, not b/c they make you gay.

Not that it matters, but you thought attacking me would somehow invalidate what I said about you. You never really refuted any of my points. You just shot back with fifth grade locker room rebuttals. I didn't expect much, but I thought you'd at least understand how debates and arguments work. Ho-hum. Have fun waiting tables.

P.S. Maybe this will explain it--Have you ever watched a cat play with a dead mouse for hours, just for fun? That's what I do when I'm buzzed.
 
Can't resist, but talk about irony...you're dissing me for calling your ass out on your bullshit "love me I'm cool in my pink shirt and fratty paddle" comments, and you're the one posting nude pics on a fucking steroid board. God damn. Good luck, son.

There's nothing wrong with having style otter, it's the attitude, the whole package that's in question. I like to look good, my clothes are always coordinated unless it's laundry day. Being interested in fashion is to me no different than any other interest. It's the totality of a person's bearing that we're talking about. I wear loud colors too sometimes, mostly because I know women tend to like a bolder style. There's just a palpable difference between masculine and feminine men, and you can't always put your finger on the specifics but it's there. No hating, just wondering what the hell is up and why a lot of women seem to prefer pansies these days. Like I said, it's a whole attitude thing.

There's a point I dont want to cross in gaining weight, but I'm nowhere near it... and I cant comprehend someone wanting to look like a drug addict. I like nice pants or shirts as much as the next guy; but commenting on fabrics? thats gay... SERIOUSLY

As for girls liking the whole skinny thing... they can have it. Any kind of change I make to myself, I do for MYSELF. In the past I've had the vanity of wanting to improve my image for others... well its not worth it. Why bring myself down to their level when I worked so hard to get to the level I'm at now? :head:

I am happy to say that my girlfriend and soon-to-be-fiance (I'm buying a house now, so it may take some time to scrape up the cash for a ring) loves my being muscular. She doesn't just like me muscular, she likes the Jay Cutler look. She likes 'em HUGE. MASSIVELY HUGE. When I told her I wanted to be a bodybuilder and get mega big like the mass monsters out there, it was like a dream come true for her.

What can I say, I'm a lucky guy :)

Good posting CDB. I really liked your point about divorce laws. My uncle's wife wanted to divorce for "irreconcilable differences" and kept his house and kids because she didn't work she also got a good chunk of his paycheck. He basically married a woman who turned into a bitch even though she was well taken care of and had a good father for her 3 kids but she wanted to see other men too. Chris Rock said it best, I'm paraphrasing here "They say life is short but it will be real long if you marry the wrong woman"

I think me and otter are kind of in the same boat, except where he wears "gay" clothes, I listen to "gay" music.

I am listeing to Phill Collins right now, "easy lover" to be specific. Normally, I would think this is homo-metro behavior. But, I close gripped 275 for 3 reps today, a career hi, if I got it the 4th time the roof would have caught on fire :woohoo: .

Anyway, you cant call a dude gay based on one aspect of his life. Do I listen to homo-metro music, yeah I probably do. Does otter dress like he belongs on stage with N'SYNC, yup. We make up for it through our bodybuilding and other man type stuff.

CrazyOtter, Metro isn't manly. It's the opposite of manly. So if you dress with style and look manly, you don't have the metro thing going.:cheers:

Personally, I find that metro stuff totally insane. Men were brutes in the past. Men didn't respect women. Now these women who like the metro think that getting men who don't really look like men will respect them more? These guys don't even respect their own gender. These women are just brainwashed that manliness is evil and these pussies CONFORM to the lack of true understanding of the sociological origins of the conflict between men and women.

I look like a brute even in my stylish clothes. I am sensitive, caring, gentle, respectful and very strong-willed, just as a man should be. But I look like a brute and don't get half a chance with some of the more sensitive gurlz out there because they can't see beyond skin deep.

I don't need them. The lady who will be smart enough to see the gentle kindness behind the muscles will get me, because she DESERVES me. When you start looking at things this way, you're glad you did. :head:

Its already been said, but I think it comes down to attitude more than anything. Some guy spending $100+ on a pair of overpriced jeans will raise a few eyebrows within a lot of the bodybuilding community. But, spending as much as we do on whey, on supplements, on cycles, vitamins, etc, will probably cause a lot of people to do a double take as well. It goes both ways.

Some people can't see beyond the muscles, some can't see beyond the clothes.

There's a big difference between kindness and spineless. Respect and kindness are good things, Otter. Don't think anyone would say otherwise. We're talking about a social dynamic where a whole lot of women prefer a heterosexual guy whose pinky flies high when he's taking a drink, who looks down on more traditional guy values, like being strong physically and mentally, stolid and aggressive. These are guys who would pass out at the idea of playing a game of grab ass in the backyard after a bbq, who could maybe tell you the finer points of making a latte but couldn't grill a decent steak if their lives depended on it. Guys who are afraid to get their hands dirty because it might screw up their manicure. Now, nothing wrong with a good manicure, I've had a few myself and women seem to appreciate it. But I wouldn't let preserving it keep me out of the garage or out from under my car if I needed to do an oil change.

Call it metro if you want, what it comes down to is the image of the traditional man has been stripped of its positve aspects and turned into a negative stereotype of a grunting, barbaric pussy hound. And what's considered the modern, more desirable model of a man by most people is in the end just a pussy. Waify, emaciated, rib cage baring twirps with a mental stature to match the insubstantiality of their physical stature. 'Men' of such wishy washy character that they trail suds wherever they go. Guys who you would not want to get stranded on an island with, or lost in the woods with, unless you needed bait of some kind for dinner.

Wear pink shirts. Hell, order the fruitiest drink you can think of and stick an umbrella in it. It won't make you metro Otter, because you seem to have balls and thats what "metro fruitcakes" are lacking.
 
Two things come to mind when I look at the state of the 'general and average' male.

"She only got half my money, but she got all my pussey" ~Richard Prior
"Pretty women walking with gorillas down my street" ~Joe Jackson

There was a time that man dominated the roles and characteristics in a relationship. Women were to be submissive, obedient and content with whatever the man 'secured' for her. If she was a looker...bonus. If he was a pig. No matter. She was a grateful gender.

Todays women can sustain their own now. She is not dependent on man for her sustenance. She is educated, employed, empowered. She has her own money and she still has all the pussey. If she is a looker...well than she has the world by the balls.

Men and women have evolved...on a primal level. Women dominate the species. The smart ones let the males just think they do. As long as a man finds his self-esteem and worth in having a women at all cost...she'll lease it to him. At a very high price. Metro males are just an adaptive creature in need of a woman.

"Pretty women walking with pretty men down my street" ~B5150
 
:goodpost:

OTOH How many times do you see absolute cuties walking around with 2-legged garbage bags?

I still see plenty of that. :frustrate
 
Yeah. I agree w/ the last 2 posts. I totally can relate to it being an adaptive/evolutionary thing. Women, in general, have more power than at any point in history and have finally started to wield the "power of the vagina" LOL! But, and this is a big but (MMmmmm...big butts...)I do NOT believe that women are the dominant species...yet. They are well on their way but if it was already a done deal, you wouldn't still be seeing size "0" models and women are still making less $$$ than men.
I think this whole "metro" thing just served to weed out the already femme. I mean, since the whole thing started the only thing that has changed about me is that I have to pay more for jeans and I can't seem to find clothes in my size. Dressing/smelling nice has nothing to do w/it. James Bond and Donald Trump are always fresh-dipped and I think they are masculine. Barischnykov (Sp?) was a friggin' ballet dancer for cryin' out loud and he is masculine. How you handle yourself, your responsibilities and deal with adversity are the true measures of a man. Being a drunken trouble-maker, bully, not taking pride in your personal appearance or the fact that you can drink a case of beer doesn't make you a man or masculine.

not to sure. I have seen so many 'masculine' men still have to ask permission from their wives to come and go, spend on this or that. I see this from 16 tp 60. I laugh at them. Again, they traded one thing for another.

Right. Just a fat drunken slob. Been there..done that (less the bully part). I am surrounded by these sort of males and they are the least masculine of males...IMO.
 
Whoever said being a violent, slovenly drunk is masculine? That would be what a lot of people who hold traditional masulinity in a negative view would characterize as masculine.

As for women being independent, yes and no. I of it's true women can earn their own bread these days and have a much greater degree of independence. But they still need to take time away from work if they choose to bear children. Or, they need the government to force their employer to pay them even though they aren't working while they are bearing children, if there's no other income to rely on. And I'm sure most of those independent women, if they had to walk through a dark alley or parking lot at night, would definitely prefer one of those metro waifs to a guy who looked like he wouldn't jump on a chair if he saw a mouse.

The independence of women is a social construct, it comes crashing down real easy, as does the supposed independence of men. Two sexes exist for a reason, both have aspects of themselves they're supposed to contribute to society. However civilized the world may get, it's fairly easy to strip that crap away and see that brute force is still one of the main driving energies of the world. Men have the upper hand there. It's just as obvious that kids are not so easily raised without a nurturing presence, and women have the upper hand there. There are areas of grey, there always are. What strikes me is the more people claim things have changed, the more they haven't.

As the women who love metro guys mature and realize that despite the best rhetoric of the feminists, it ain't so easy or that good of an idea to raise a kid without a father, their tastes will change. If they don't want kids they need to think how much they'd like living the rest of their lives with another woman, which is essentially what a metro guy is. And little metro Billy living in his mom's basement because he can't afford an apartment due to his wardrobe budget won't be so attractive anymore. Same goes for men who go for women who aren't ladies. Sluts make bad mothers just as drunks make bad fathers, and party animal women however faithful they may be don't demonstrate the necessary level of responsibility for long term relationships, especially those with kids.

They can only hope that when they come to these realizations that there are still some marketable alternatives available for them. Late comers don't get the best pickings.

You misunderstood C. I'm basically saying what you just did. Those things, that the man-bashers like to point out, are not what make you a man or masculine. Let me put it out there like this...some guys are just soft. Period. And that's fine. And the women that like those frosted-tip having, girl-jean wearing, thong showing, lip-gloss having guys...they'll come to their senses once the **** hit the fan.
 
1 - This thread was fucking hilarious
2 - CDB rules
3 - You can't judge a person based on whether or not they fucking wear lipgloss, have stylish jeans, or get manicures at the spa. We grow out of the fratty college style for 2 reasons: 1 - we grow up and realize other things look better, like our true selves, not what A&F thinks we look best in, and 2 - the arms on the fucking pink A&F polos are like 15", and that's on the fucking XXLs!!! That's why I stopped wearing mine! ;)
 
Just heard on the radio that Metro Sexual is OLD school.


What is in is UBER SEXUAL. A man in touch with his feminine side buyt still does manly things like go mudding and hunt.

great post

great post CDB...men should be caring and respectful to women...they should take pride in their appearance b/c they expect women to..however, they should also act like men....no pedicures or manicures. they shouldn't hesitate to change a tire or do some sort of physical task b/c they might chip a damn nail or mess up their hair.

hell, i shop at banana republic and i make it a point to wear nice shoes...fact is, women do notice this and it's an initial attraction or first impression that sparks someones initial interest. if you look like a slob, good luck getting a good looking women to notice you...especially when she has 10 other gusy drooling over her. however, it's how you act after that initial impression that makes you a man....open doors, listen to her problems etc....real men can do this...this doesn't mean cry and complain or spend so much time on primping yourself that you spend more time in front of the mirror than her. there's a limit.

you can be 150 pounds or 250 pounds and still be a man.
