Body builders, models, actors and swimmers all shave their chests.

My friend shaves his chest, gets manicures and massages and keeps himself very well groomed. I think it is great, more men should spend more time looking after their appearance. He must be a metrosexual, I like that term btw!

I don't think I saw any men with chest hair or body hair at the gym where my step-son works out. Underarm hair yes but some of the men didn't even have much leg hair either so I imagine they use a hair removal cream or something. So, it's not just people in the public eye these are just regular guys.

i think men also wax their chests too. as far as shaving goes i hope they are going with the grain and not against.

"Body builders, models, actors and swimmers all shave their chests."

I knew these kinds of people shaved their chests but had no idea it has spread to the general population. Is this more or less a gen-x kind of thing or what?

I don't, and wont, but I have a friend who has experimented with it in the past, just an everyday guy.

Sasman it may be the younger generation that started it but even older men are doing it too. And I see lots of men getting their nails done at the beauty shop. It's no big deal anymore.

Nails I'll do, but I can't see myself ever shaving my body.

Couple of years ago I grew a beard because I hated shaving (it was ugly & eventually shaved it off) so I don't think I'll join this trend but perhaps I should run it my my BW!

I don't shave my chest/arms/legs/etc, just keep everything trimmed nice. A massage is something I'd wait in line for.

Square, you have to find a manicurist that will give you a hand massage. I used to go have one done after work on Friday and all the tension from the week faded away. I'll admit that if I have to choose between a hand or foot massage, I'll take the foot though. You know, you don't have to find a professional to do either though. Just pick up some nice lotions or oils and have a friend or spouse do it for you.

I don't know you guys...I believe that Nathan has had girlfriends, but I also believe he's had boyfriends. The way he acted on yesterday's episode when he was in the HoH Room with Ali, and kept mentioning how she made out with all the guys. The way he talked, the facial expressions he made, the tone of his voice, his body movements, all points to, uhum, his homosexual side. I believe that when he said stuff about Jee's butt and his nipples was just in fun, but when they were in the living room and he was trying to justify he was straight, and then said "I'm straight, unlike Jee" is just wishful thinking on his part. Nathan is metrosexual to say the least, if not much more.

I managed a boutique in the late 60s when brightly colored/patterned "Tom Jones" shirts were the rage. (poofy shoulders, wide opened necklines etc).. anyway, when 'straight' guys came in and questioned whether or not they'd dare be caught weraing one of them, my most effective sales line was "if you're sure of your masculinity, you can wear anything". It was a killer line and I sold a lot of those ugly shirts. LOL

my point? I think Nate IS very sure of his masculinity which is why he has no problem being kidded about it.

I don't think Nathan is comfortable with his or others' sexuality yet..

ark, at the nail shop i go to ive seen them give people hand massages (now that i think of it) when they get manicures, but i only get a fill-in so i don't get the special treatment. but i do get a pedicure bout once a month and it is heaven, esp in the massage chair. truly a beautiful thing.

I don't have any hair on my chest, hence nothing to shave. I don't think I would shave it if I did have a hairy chest - maybe a little 'trim job' if it became unruly though! Wouldn't you end up with 'stubs' on your chest like you get on your face? Just curious..........

Does anyone know where the "metro" comes from. Do all metrosexuals live in metropolitan areas, or just ride the subway a lot?
