My younger brother, Francis, is a metrosexual. While I lug around a “kikay” kit my brother is never with his “pogi” pack, a vanity case filled with his very own personal care essentials.
Metrosexual is a term used to describe heterosexual men with a strong concern for their physical appearance. Metrosexual men are often thought of as gay because of their high maintenance beauty and health care regimen and style philosophy of looking neat and polished.
Metrosexuality is a fairly recent phenomenon. Men are becoming more mindful of their looks and health, their lifestyle in general; and isn’t that a good thing? This emphasizes the fact that beauty and the desire to be beautiful is not gender specific, men can be beautiful, too!
