Sani, a fine friend, and the nicest non-metrosexual you will ever meet (sorry, buddy -- that's the truth, and you know it! :) ), posted a very relevant point on the topic of the "Value of a metrosexual":
"Just a bit off topic, with all this focus on metro sexual man what bout 'metro sexual' women? A women who can clean the toilet, fix any electrical and plumbing problems in the house, keep their car well maintained (that's more then just bringing it for regular checks at the workshop), and do basic carpentry? Not assuming here, if you can good for you (give urself a pat on the shoulder), if you cant do the above, then the next time you speak of the metro sexual man, think bout what I just posted. Equality works both ways."
Why are husbands expected to change their wives' flat tires? Because its the "manly" thing to do. Why is it that when there is a "noise" downstairs, its the husband who needs to wield the baseball bat and check it out? Because its the "manly" thing to do.
Logic goes to reason that if there is such a thing as the "manly" thing to do then there must be things which are "womanly". Its all about function and roles, specialization and efficiency.
