" History has shown that women have faced overwhelming pressures to look and act in a particular way by the media in order to be deemed fashionable or indeed attractive. In the 50's it may have been the hour glass figure or present day the waif like figures we see on catwalks. However there has been a massive drive on male image and how we deem we should look. Men are obsessed with image more and more taking steroids to build muscle, etc....is this simply karma from the way women were treated or are we becoming slightly narcissistic? At a time when statistics show a massive increase in suicide amongst males in the 30-45 bracket are we losing sight of what makes us truly happy and simply trying to be what we percieve as desirable ? And before you start, yes I'm most happy in cargos, t-shirt and my comfy northface shoes " Speak for yourself, luv | |||

"I struggle with how younger men choose to look these days. Ok, I appreciate I come from Essex, but the amount of young men wandering around trying to emulate Joey Essex, and the like makes me shudder. Skin tight trousers, tight tops and cardigans. Whilst out the other night for a birthday in a local nightclub, I had trouble telling the difference between some of the men and women. Most shops now seem to cater for skinny men with a pre-pubescent look to them. My housemate went shopping for clothes recently after doing some muscle build up, and couldn't find anything to fit him. Everything was skinny fit. " Exactly I would look a right twat in most of that type of clothing yet some guys still try to achieve it to remain trendy or try and look younger. Them tshirts that are tight fitting with the neckline down to the lower chest look bloody awful on most men but you see so many guys trying to pull it off. And dont even get me started on toms footwear | |||

I don't watch it personally, but I work with mostly under 25's, so I feel like I know the characters personally!! | |||

"Traditionally, men were judged on their careers and women on their looks. Now women have careers as well, men don't feel like their career counts for as much and so take more interest in physical attractiveness. Something along those lines, anyway." Most intelligent thing I've read on this thread thus far. In our grandparents day, men didn't care about making themselves look pretty, what mattered was how strong and fit you were (interestingly enough, the qualities from which male aesthetics are typically derived - ie a look of rugged, robust health and strength) and how effectively you could perform in manual tasks like coal mining, building, working as a farm hand etc. Some of the most fun I've had this year was helping a friends girlfriend move house - she's a beautiful girl, just the sort who has guys swarming around her like flies to honey on a night out, but those good looks weren't going to lug her fridge freezer and washing machine out to the van. | |||
