definition of metrosexual

The one of metrosexual It is a relatively new term in our language but whose use has spread phenomenally because the manifestations of its reference have also multiplied.

A metrosexual is a man who cares and occupies a lot about his physical appearance, about his image, almost like a woman does. That is, it carries out some typical practices of women to take care of itself physically how to be: use hydrating creams for body and face, shampoos and conditioners to improve the appearance of your hair, you perform surgeries or aesthetic treatments to modify those parts of your body that you do not like, you usually go to the hairdresser to dye your hair now shake hands, she loves to go shopping and buy clothes, shoes, accessories, perfumes, among the most common.

For example, the metrosexual is always aware and up-to-date with trends, fashion, knows what is used, what is not, just like a woman, but of course, society takes as a common question that this inclination occurs in the female gender but not in men and that is why it causes surprise and sensation, especially when this situation began to be identified some years ago and the media began to spread it.

Although when this trend began to be glimpsed in men, the alarm of its connection with homosexuality appeared, that is, to the sexual preference of these men for others, it was immediately verified that it had nothing to do with it, since there are many men heterosexuals who present this characteristic of metrosexual.

It is worth mentioning, regarding this, that when living mostly in a macho society, which although it evolved in many aspects, in others, such as the aesthetic care of a man, still lives in past times and that is why it is not conceived that he may care about his presence as much or more than a woman does and then, the first response attributed to this need and preference is that the man is homosexual. Although, as we said, it has already been proven that it has nothing to do with it.

For a macho issue, men in the past have hidden this concern to look good and today they are beginning to bring it to light, they no longer take it as a taboo or that it will be taken as a gay inclination.

Footballer David Beckham is one of the celebrities most associated with this trend.
