What is a medrosexual?

Metrosexual (a portmanteau of metropolitan and heterosexual) is a term applied to a heterosexual man living in an urban area who spends a significant amount of time and money on their appearance and style of living. The term was first used in 1994 by British journalist Mark Simpson, who defined a metrosexual as "a straight man who cares as much about his moisturizer as he does his bank balance" and someone "who goes shopping at Prada or Diesel, reads Wallpaper magazine, is into interior design, and has just bought a subscription to Sky Sports".

Metrosexuality is often associated with a focus on physical appearance, fashion, and grooming. Metrosexual men are typically well-dressed and stylish, and they often spend a lot of time and effort on their hair, skin, and nails. They are also likely to be interested in the latest trends in fashion, music, and art.

In addition to their focus on appearance, metrosexual men are often seen as being more sensitive and emotionally aware than traditional masculine stereotypes. They are more likely to be open about their feelings and emotions, and they are often more comfortable with physical intimacy.

Metrosexuality has been criticized by some for being superficial and narcissistic. However, it has also been praised for challenging traditional gender roles and for promoting a more inclusive and diverse view of masculinity.

Ultimately, metrosexuality is a personal choice. There is no right or wrong way to be a man, and there is no single definition of what it means to be metrosexual.
