Sexuality??
For a good 4 years now...the people around me...be it acquaintances...friends (mind you...some are really good friends of mine)...and until recently...colleagues from my evergreen Saatchi Lab...have been questionin my very ambiguous sexuality...i think it's bout time i set the record straight...iron out the creases...mow the lawn...rock my boat...eh...u get what i mean...
For starters...i think there's a very thin line between a metrosexual and a fully-certified gay...people...or rather...my friends...need to understand the very basic rationale behind that...which is my sexual preference...that very conveniently happens to be una mujer...
Yes...i do follow the de rigeur du jour of cleanse, tone and moisturise...it's a habit cultivated after several rather embarrassing young adult years of walkin around with a live volcano on my face...and oh yes i do it ever so lovingly and gently...with great chutzpah and aplomb...not that im complainin bout the money spent...it's doin wonders for my skin and 'texture'...so much so that ive been mistaken for puttin on makeup...ehm...my pores are too open for you? Or do i have that radiant Oil of Ulay look? :) And no...im not gettin prettier by the day...also...no intentions to model anytime soon...
Yes...i do get my hands and feet pampered...i tell ya...nothin beats gettin your XX days old corns and dry skin deliced and deticked with some good old manicure and pedicure sessions...i mean...you SIMPLY have to take good care of em...your hands are the first (sic) part of your anatomy that greets a stranger...and those feet have to put up with your punishing strides...if u can fork out $80 for a tee-shirt...why not pay the same for your limbs? I know many women who do prefer the "Ooh-u-have-such-rough-hands-u-must-be-macho" look...but how would u like those men to caress your breasts and mons with those gruff instruments?
Yes...half the time i look like ive got lipstick on...those supple, rosy and full lips of mine look ripe for pickings...but eh...sorry to disappoint ya...it's JUST LIP GLOSS...i mean...i'm only doin my lips lip service (pardon the pun) when they're the second (sic) part of my body that greets a stranger...now tell me...do you want rough flaky lips to titilllate your thirsty mouth...or would you rather kiss smooth and moist lips? Now even if Joe-Next-Door cant kiss to save his life...if he had taken the decency to take good care of his lips...his first kiss would be the talk of Tinseltown...
Yes...i know the difference between an eau de parfum and eau de toilette...or recognise a cologne just from the scent...now is it a crime for a man to indulge in scents? Perhaps...a man's scent is the third (sic) part of you that a stranger would identify you with...and wouldnt you wana smell the part when you are dressing the part? How cool is it when you are all decked up in the nines for a College bash...only to be caught dead with a wrong scent...or...criminally...WITHOUT a scent?? Imagine...Joe-Next-Door's goin for a round of golf...and he sprays on...say...Guy Larouche Horizon....WTF?!?!!? Or...a hot date with Kristin Kreuk...without a scent when she's in Estee Lauder Pleasures? God save your soul if you dont indulge in scents...
These days men are livin it up...an extensive range of beauty products are available at their fingertips...there is a growin market for men...beauty products which were previously aimed at women have found widespread popularity with men...though it's only in recent years has this phenomenon been readily acceptable...hands up if you've nicked your girlfriend's toner after a shower...or your mom's moisturiser before you sleep...i know i have...
I hope to see more men takin good and proper care of themselves...a quick shower isnt gona suffice these days...women dont just want a man with great personality and a bottomless pocket...they also want to be seen with a man who knows how to groom himself...for...isnt it true that if a man is able to pamper himself...imagine the adulations the woman's gona receive...
