Manicures and Pedicures......

[Zoley!]

I didnt know were to put this question. Should men get manicures and pedicures? Do you like men to get them? And does your man get manicures or pedicures? Do you think they should wear clear polish? How do you feel about men in the nail salon.

Hmm..sounds 150% gay to me :icon_eek:

[Arch_Angel]

No Chico. That's not right. Why are you saying he is 150% gay? I don't understand you.
That should be 500% gay. :rolleyes:

No, I will not be getting any kind of cure and I don't think men should be getting any kind of cure. Maybe if they were going on a big date and they really have some course and dirty finger nails, MAYBE!!!

For a guy to do that on a regular basis, if any at all, lets just say he is in more contact with his female side, if there is such a thing. :icon_eek:

[Drew]

come on guys. so what you telling me, guys mustn't take care of their bodies also. i think its ok if i guy wants to do mani & pedis if he wishes. there is nothing wrong with taking care of your body wether male or female.

its like when you go to jencare and get a nice massage and facial, everyone looking on you like your some form of an alien. i like to keep myself looking clean and respectable, i don't do my nails but i think that you should try and look your best.

[Greatis]

100 degrees lean :icon_lol:

hmmm guys that responded hmmm did you read as to who the thread was directed at. :eusa_sile

Alright forget the jokes seriously.

Think about it a guy gets is toe nails and finger nails cut right. So if he does why not have it done by a professional who's trained to take care of them (A Waste of Damned Money). I mean I can't see a guy getting nail polish but a simple manicure and pedicure cool. Facials and Spa Treatments. How yuh mean. :eusa_whis

[Arch_Angel]

Oh yeah, didn't even see it was directed towards the women. Oh well, forgive us ladies. :)
But isn't it a bit metrosexual to do that? I mean, you can stay home and cut your nails. You really going to go out and pay someone to cut them? Maybe if I am trying to impress my girlfriend, but not on a regular basis.

[Drew]

oh yea, didn't realise that at all. :eusa_doh:
yes it is being a metrosexual, but there isn't anything wrong with that is there.

[Cocoa]

Being a metrosexual is quite fine. In fact, alot of women wished their men would take care of them selves some more. Nothing is wrong with taking care and now and then getting a pedi and manicure. Its almost like getting a massage and going to the spa.

Take care of yourselves whether male or female...don't be a loose person with kuru kuru under the fingernail and kneading the dumplin at the same time....be clean and neat and look after you.

So men, let the other men laugh at ou when you walk in and out of the salons..cause you are bringing all that sharpness home to a woman who don't mind.

[Drew]

thats wat i'm talking about, thanks cocoa. :cool:
felt like i was alone on that one. phew. ;)

[InkyP1]

I think its cool. Hey some guys want there women to do it anyway so why not let them go to the salon and get it done. Feet! :eusa_snoo

[AngelsKiss]

IMO - nothing wrong with a man getting a manicure / pedicure and I think its actually good if he does. Nothing like clean hands and feet. As with everything else its when you go overboard then it becomes a problem. As far as am concern, if a man is secure in his masculinity then he won't be concerned about what others think of him getting a manicure / pedicure.

[Greatis]

security in masculinity has nothing to do with how people see the man. ;)

[philben]

It takes more than doing a mani and pedi to determine if a guy is gay - the feminine ones you see them coming from a far! I'm sure you'd all agree.

My take on it is that it is alright once he's not competing with me, and once he does not act feminine.

[Drew]

ok, so let me ask this. what do you consider going overboard??

[philben]

putting on red nail polish, getting a french manicure!

[Cocoa]

putting on red nail polish, getting a french manicure!LOLOL that crossed the line and walking in the direction of name calling.

[Drew]

LMAO. :icon_mrgr but wats a french manicure?? :icon_neut

[Cocoa]

French manicure is when you have the nail polished clear then put on a white tip on the end of the nail or some other designed in white.

[philben]

ok drew, you need to learn about these things - for your woman's sake!

simply. it's nail polish on the as well, but there is a different colour on the tips - it is usually white.

[Drew]

oh i know what she's talking about, i jus didn't know thats what they're called. learn something new everyday.

yea i see it all the time. now i know.

[AngelsKiss]

I still maintain if you are secure in your masculinity then you have nothing to worry about. Why worry too much about what others think if you know within yourself that you are not gay?

Someone ask what is going overboard and another responded by saying its wearing nail polish etc....that I agree with :)

[Arch_Angel]

But if a guy is secure in his masculinity, why can't he wear nail polish? Why can't he go to the extent of getting a french whatever you call it? As long as he knows he is not gay, then he shouldn't have a problem. He shouldn't worry too much about what others think, right?

Or is there a limit to the security a guy can have in his masculinity? :eusa_thin :confused:

[AngelsKiss]

I didn't say he couldn't do that either. I just think that it would be going overboard since the tradition is for women to wear nail polish. However, the issue of a manicure and a pedicure to me is more about cleanliness and not sexuality.

[Gillion]

Personally it is always good to get a manicure and a pedicure.

I usually here my sistrens' complain bitterly about the men they have with scales for feet and ugly toenails that look nasty when they come out of the shower or wear slippers.

ewww

The polish thing is too much.. but not a thing is wrong with a good nail buff and a cuticle push.

[Greatis]

So AngelKiss could you ans this question for me? You at know time matter what people say about you?

[AngelsKiss]

Greatis...for the most part no I don't worry about what ppl may say or think about me. There will always be the positive and the negative. If someone says something negative, I examine it, see if there is any truth and try to fix it if I can, simply because I believe that we should try to grow as individuals. Also, I recognise that I am not perfect and will always make mistakes. IMO, its how I deal with my mistakes that counts, not so much what others think.

[Greatis]

Well I watch what people say about me simply because. I would not like to be waliking by KFC and have everyone calling me gay :eusa_sick

I would be embarassed and the consequences it could have. No sah.

[Drew]

you both have valid points. i wouldn't want the same thing myself greatis. however if you keep caring what people say about you, you will not be yourself and will be unhappy.

[AngelsKiss]

Life is too short to worry about what ppl think about me, worst if its not some one I care about. If someone wanna call me gay, then thats there business, I know am not gay so I am not gonna worry.

If I was to respond it would be you are entitle to your opinion and since you are not a factor in my life then your opinion aint worth a d*mn to me. The truth however, is that I wouldnt waste my time to respond to something like that. :)

[Drew]

well i know that i love my life. so i don't want anyone to call me gay fi come kill me. no sah. and you know how the people out here stay already.
