Ok that fair enough. What about men without monobrows, whats their reason for plucking them?

What I'm doing right now is probably in the spirit of this thread so...
I've just shaved very carefully using my new razor, lather and brush
I smell like the man your man could smell like
I've put on a freshly ironed shirt and trousers, coat, tie, pocket square and brogues...

Guess where I'm going tonight?











That's right, Tesco.:cool:

They won't be over-grown? at least that is my reason :smile:
And guys complain about the amount of time girls take to get ready...

Sigh.

And they STILL ID'd me when I bought whisky. Probably shouldn't have shaved.
There is no link between men pampering themselves and their sexuality ha, it's the same thing with women.

I'm only messing with you, I'm not a stereotypical dickhead :smile:


Normal eyebrows=ones that aren't plucked to hell, just the middle bit gone.

Thanks for the reassurance.

Yo, i am starting to develop abit of a pot belly due to eating too much takeaway and zero exercise (on PC and Xbox all day).

Any ideas on how to get rid of it without excercising?

Would turning vegan for a month help significantly?

Also you mentioned moisterise and exfoliate, what are they?

The effort you put in is sexy.
I think it shows you're not lazy nor cocky (i.e you actually work to improve your appearance and not just walk out with your chin up thinking every girl wants a piece of you).

I for one cannot go a day without a shower, I pluck my mono brow and clean eyebrows up slightly, I trim 'down there' and shave around the edges, I trim armpits (IMO there is nothing worse than a tuft of hair emerging from your t-shirt) and I moisterise (sometimes even tinted), body brush, exfoliate,keep my facial hair trimmed and always have a nice fragrence on.

I'm confident in my sexuality (straight) 100%.


It's good to take care and maintain yourself. Everyone should do it. In my experience, most girls won't mind it and some even get amused by it.

I tend to take care of myself as I often work close to 100 hours per week and at all hours of the day due to the nature of my work which requires me to be in conversation with people all over the world.

Used to maintaining myself, my mother used to run a company that imported a certain brand of cosmetics and also ran a chain of beauty salons. Always had the chance to use various cosmetics.

I shower twice a day.
I don't pluck brows, prefer to use wax.
Rest of body, I go for a full wax job.
Face.... shave everyday.

Face maintenance :-
Wash 3x, once in the morning, when I return from work and before I sleep. I use a very good cleanser. Every 3rd day I use a scrub.
Before sleeping I use a toner and apply some eyecare serum.
Morning I use a moisturiser.

Body maintenance :-
Shower twice daily, morning is just a quick shower and then a normal body lotion.
Evening shower, use a body brush and exfoliate and apply a body moisturiser, in the colder months I apply it in the mornings as well.

It takes around 30 minutes to do everything.

I do use fairly good cosmetics, usually those by Dermalogica and La Mer.

Been doing it since I was 15, as a result most people tend to think I'm at least 10 years younger than I really am. In some places I still get asked for ID to buy alcohol or enter clubs. :tongue:

I think you should just eat 3-4 meals a day, only protein/carbs/fats (natural fats such as nuts and oils). Be the best way really. If you get hungry, just snack on nuts instead of chocolate or crisps, you'll see the fat falling off of you mate.
