    As a woman, I'm ambivalent about the metrosexual male. I don't know what to think. Take my feelings about NFL QB Tom Brady as a case in point. Sometimes, I feel he is not representing the New England Patriots with the ap...read more

    It seems to me like more and more men are becoming overly concerned with their looks. I'm not saying that all men need to be unshaven slobs with stains all over their torn t-shirts, but it's a little weird for me when a g...read more
