Well, preening is one thing. Wild and unkempt is another. Real men like real women and real women tend to like men who keep their appearance tidy, you know, hair trimmed, clean, a comb once in a while.
Not necessarily.
Some guys take a lot of pride in looking good, and buy just the right merchandise. They are the group that magazines, such as Esquire or GQ USED TO be for, before those mag became too PC.
Some Gen X guys want what used to be called a Crew Cut. When a friend of mine was seen with a Marine-like buzz cut, I figured he was either going to a staff meeting, looking for a new job, or to a school function for his kids.
Other guys (like me) only do what they have to do, and when they have to do it. I have a thick neck. I don’t like wearing ties for very long, or having that top button snapped.
