WaTimes reports Manly Men Are Back
- Harris Survey (commissioned by Dodge trucks)
- 75 percent of women said their ideal man buys his grooming products at a grocery store or drugstore, not a salon Like American Crew pomade? Or body sprays? Tons of fruity stuff at Walgreens
- 2 percent of women said their ideal man spends his free time doing home-improvement projects Like finishing that goddamn kitchen
- 47 percent of women said their ideal man spends his money on electronics, compared with 9 percent who answered "designer clothes." And the rest said he stays at home finishing that goddamn kitchen while she can go out shopping
- 90 percent of women said they prefer low-maintenance, easygoing guys Like a good appliance
Challenged by Reason‘s Nick Gillespie
- Fashionable and dependable is a false dichotomy
- Masks 2 conservative messages:
- Metrosexual threatens the Right because it is proof men acceptance breakdown of traditional gender roles
- Reinforces Red/Blue State Beer/Lattes NASCAR/Yoga dichotomy
- Equals: Liberal/progressive men are effete and afraid to grow up
