Men and their top 10.....

Metrosexual doesn't have to be a stigma, it's a reality and we love it! We embrace our men's sense of style; we love to breathe it, glance at it, and hug it. GQ was a godsend, even though we could use more about men and fewer women in it.  Even though half of what they say is pointless and raw, it still has a very accurate and simple guide to follow to achieve a decent style.  We hate, with a capital "H", sloppy.  There shouldn't be an excuse to wear your team's jersey unless you happen to be at least 50 feet away from the actual team, you are under the age of 10, or you are at the Milwaukee airport. There is absolutely no excuse for the stained, the baggy, the wrinkled, the pleated, the checkered, the stinky,  the oversized, the mismatched, the outdated.  Men are responsible for beauty as well.  We were created equal, they say. Equally beautiful in our own ways; so embrace it, live it, believe it.  We don't believe there are ugly people in this world, there are merely sloppy people in this world. Everybody with a good attitude and a good shoe can make a remarkable entrance.  Anybody with a good cologne will turn heads. It's not about what you spend it's how you spend it.  It's all about pleasing our senses.  It's not all about the hard-to-grab muscles, hard-to-lay-on-while-movie-watching muscles.  It's about what we smell, what we touch, what we feel, what we see.  Pamper yourself to something beautiful; we will enjoy it too!  Pretty please with a cherry on top..........
