Are Men Vainer Than Women?

September 15, 2008

O yes! Men are so vain and I find it rather weird that men are getting vainer than women. It’s a women’s prerogative not yours! I mean why o why do we now have to sit around waiting for the bathroom and have to share the bathroom shelf with BOTH of our products, its just not right!

Nothing is wrong with a man taking pride in his appearance but there are limits! The word pretty boy comes into my head yes he might be good on the eye but it can be hard work and get a little obsessive. One thing I find a huge turn off is when men stare at there reflection in shop windows, car mirrors, ext.

Here is a list of the main treatments that men tend to go for now:

Waxing (Sack, back and crack, Urgh!!!)
Self Tanning
Manicures
Facials
Cosmetic Implants

I don’t mind a man asking if he looks good in a pair of jeans but asking if his skin is looking clearer after a new moisturiser he has purchased or get ready for it using YOUR razor to shave his vile legs………pleeeease stop right now!

Ok call me old fashioned but men should be men. Women should be feminine but when it comes to men it should be more of a hard look, rough and rugged. Vanity smacks of being insecure and In a man it is not attractive. Men should be confident! I think they should still look good and dress well though!

    The male apperance is becoming more and more demanded by the women. women say they like the rough and ready look, that’s a percentage belive me, I’m constantly being told I’m a pretty boy, but deep down I know you love it, especially you Mather ha ha ha !!

    Nothing wrong with shiny balls either!!!

    I must say that i am rather disturbed by the comment made by Karl Hodgson. He sounds like a vain man! How he can say it is women who are demanding i think he does this for his own pleasure and obviously loves attention from the ladies and maybe men. It is nothing to brag about being labeled a “pretty boy” and even worse finding your shiny balls attractive, you make me sick!

    Be a man!!!!!!!!!! x

    I hate it when a man has to spend longer in the bathroom and in front of the mirror and it is so un-natural for them to have a back sack and crack wax, they look strange…. I love a man to be natural even if it does mean rough and rugged.

    Be a man!!! All MAN SWEETHEART!!! Well I belive that all men’s stlye, fashion and even appearance has become extremely demanding, can’t let yourself slide from the competion now, need to keep the standards high for the women who DO like a well kept bloke.

    Perfect example is the picture of Mr Becks above, yeah he looks good in anything, Why? That’s his stylist keeping him in lookin well groomed, he’s not complaining is he?

    Just sounds like you’ve been blown out to many times from good looking guys…

    Sorry spelling isn’t to cleaver today, busy pulking my eyebrows!!

  7. Jodie on September 17th, 2008 2:05 pm

    All man, yeah right!!! I appreciate your honesty but i believe that men who take to much pride in there appearance is because they have to make up for the package down the trousers. I think nothing is wrong with a man taking pride in the clothes that he wears but it is going to far with appearance. I think you will be surprised to know that women only like a well kept bloke if you are there gay friend not a boyfriend!

    I take it Mr Becks is your style icon??? He is not complaining because he is worth millions by taking pride in his appearance and plays on it now.

    I have not been blown out by good looking guys i just don’t have the patience and time for “pretty boys”.

    Why don’t you take some style tips from some real men you might get more attention from the women and less from the men!!! x

    Maureen…..you have that problem becuase the lads you go out with are either are Bruce Bogtrotter’s or slof from the goonies trying to look good. Find a handsome guy then….. hey presto you have more time in front of the mirror!!

  9. Maureen on September 17th, 2008 2:11 pm

    You sound like you love yourself so why would i pick a good looking guy for him to look in every mirror he walks past… I don’t like the very good looking as they have a crap personality…. Remind you of anyone (sounds like you)

  10. Karl Hodgson on September 17th, 2008 2:12 pm

    Fair comment Mather….”Pretty boys” that’s a nature look, they don’t have to spend time on their appearance or infront of the mirror, not like the guys who just want to be good looking, their the ones who try to hard and maybe the ones you feel so strongly about….I hate those kind!!!

  11. Jodie on September 17th, 2008 2:21 pm

    PLEASE Karl i have just eaten my lunch and you are making me want to throw it back up. I take it you are just one of those good looking guys blessed by natural good lucks, how much do you love yourself! I suppose when you look at yourself in the mirror you blow yourself a kiss, wink and lift one eyebrow up!

    You seriously do have to stop loving yourself and spend money on stuff what normal men spend money on like beer, football, ect not on waxing kits and fake tan! x

  12. Karl Hodgson on September 17th, 2008 2:31 pm

    Spend my money on Football, beer and then at the end of the night…”sex” like normal ugly men, because they can’t get a nice girl, because they look like a bag of sh*t!!….Well maybe get lucky and pull a minger, a minger that like the ugly p*ssed guys, whispering sweet nothings whilst eating a donner. Sounds really attractive that does, I’m missing out on all this being a man by the sounds of things….Your not tho are you Mather, right up your street.

  13. Jodie on September 17th, 2008 2:56 pm

    I think we are getting are wires crossed a little here!

    Why you think i go for men who are fat, ugly, minging, donner lovers i don’t know! Let me reiterate i like a man who maybe has a bit of facial hair (not a full on beard!), does not have a cabinet stacked with beauty products, does not shave there legs, does not wax there balls like yourself because they want them to look pretty. I like a MAN who likes to do stuff that normal men do! That still means having a wash, clean there hair and brush there teeth!

    If the roughed up look is so bad and they can only pull mingers why did Pete Doherty date Kate Moss??? She could date any man and she goes for real men not pathetic vain men!

    You are doing a lot of typing Karl becarefull that you don’t damage your manicure! x

  14. Karl Hodgson on September 17th, 2008 3:27 pm

    Kate Moss gets her drugs cheaper that’s why Mather. Remember the pictures clearly showing that she is a smack head…..WOW that’s a real man alright getting such a stunning girl to end up doing that sh*t, getting arrested all the time, like I said before I’m really missing out on all these real men you keep talking about…..Not once have you won this discussion with a straight to the point article!!!! I would give up now before you humiliate yourself even more…..

    I win you lose this game…….LOSER,…LOSER……….LOSSSSEERRRR

  15. Jodie on September 17th, 2008 3:56 pm

    Not only are you vain you are very immature! OK so i did not use a good example but she has never been pictured with a guy who looks gay!

    In my eyes i win and you are the loser!!!!! Deep down you know this.

    Hope you have a lovely evening pampering yourself and always remember to wear gloves when fake tanning it is a give away sign when you have orange hands.

    Karl this is a term for someone who is you it’s a pathological narcissist!.

    1 - 0 to me x

  16. Karl Hodgson on September 17th, 2008 4:06 pm

    “athological narcissist” relates to “power and prestige” that’s me ok thanks for the compliment, i knew you really liked me xx

  17. Jodie on September 17th, 2008 4:16 pm

    That must be what you want it to mean. The term actually means ” A man obsessed with himself to the point it becomes sick and abnormal ”

    Please see below for your records smart arse:

    Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is a personality disorder defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM IV-R), the diagnostic classification system used in the United States, as “a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration, and a lack of empathy.

    I think you had a slight misunderstanding and went for the one below:

    The narcissist is described as turning inward for gratification rather than depending on others and as being excessively preoccupied with issues of personal adequacy, power and prestige.

    Sorry Karl it is definitely the first one ;-) x

Got something to say?
