Gay ???? Sissy ????

I think a lot of guys out there have a misconception of what a manicure and pedicure is. This is what I gather after hearing some of the guys comment on males having their manicure and pedicure done.

If you bother to find the meaning of the word manicure and pedicure in the online dictionary, it actually means this:

From Marriam webster dictionary online,

Manicure: from
Latin manus hand + French -icure (as in pédicure pedicure)

2 : a treatment for the care of the hands and fingernails

Pedicure:
from Latin ped-, pes foot + curare to take care, from cura care
a: care of the feet, toes, and nails

So normally, if a guy said he did his mani and pedi, you will most probably hear this:

"Eeee... He/ You very gay le !!!" or " He's such a sissy!"

As a matter of fact,

GAY = happy
SISSY = timid or coward

Being happy aka GAY is never an issue with anyone is it? On top of that, how can an attempt to keep your hands and feet clean and hygienic be a sign of timidity and cowardice?!

By the way, calling someone GAY and or SISSY is so rude !!!

If I were someone who likes my gender more than the opposite gender, I would very much be preferred if you call me a homosexual (gay = happy as I may be, it's not your business to begin with). To clear things up a little... I am no homosexual. I still prefer men despite the fact that I love myself to death!! hahahaha

Another note, who in the world is not 'sissy' for your fears ?!! Some people are afraid of heights, some insects, some death and so on. I'm sure everyone has fear or weakness due to their past experiences but they may not be sissies, right ?

So so so.... GUYS!!!! It is perfectly alright to have your manicure and pedicure done. It's like such a sweet thing to do together with your girlfriends, wives and gal buddies.

But I guess an advice will be to not have like colored nail lacquer on you fingers or toes. Colored as in reds, pinks, silver, gold, etc. Like the so-called 'girly' colors. I think colors like beige or brown depending on skin tone is alright if you want to have colored nails or even black for a gothic look!

Normally my guy friends
just stick with the basic topcoat or nail strengthener or even just 'buff and shine'. Basically, have the nails look clean and well trimmed. (FYI....they love women and are quite M.C.P. Yes, they started to do manicure and pedicure.... due to my influence and they fact that I dared them and force them the first time round... hahahaha)

I guess I prefer guys who like to take care of how they look and give a good first impression. Imagine this:

2 Guy walks up to you and tries to befriend you and asks you on a date.

Guy A:

Hair: Messy, oily. Looks like just woke up kinda look.
Hands and feet: Long nails with black grim in them and super duper dry and chapped
Clothes: Total mismatch for color and style. Like beige (maybe too old), stained singlet with tattered bermudas, not those kind that were deliberately tattered kind, you know what I mean.
Face: Oily and super shiny, uneven stubble
Body: Flabby aka FAT

Guy B:

Hair: Well cut and carefully styled
Hands and feet: Clean, neat, short nails. Smooth shiny skin
Clothes: Well matched and for the occassion. Like nice cleaned T-shirt or shirt with jeans and stuff like that
Face: Clean and well shaven
Body: NOT flabby or fat

So who will you choose?

Verdict:

For me, I will choose GUY B. Yes yes I'm superficial but who is not?! Well, if you chose GUY A then all I can say is good luck to you and I wish you all the happiness you can possibly get.

Some people say you cannot judge a person by their looks but look at their heart and love them for who they are inside.


For goodness sake....!!!!

How do you even get to know a person or his heart even if he repulses you even before you know him ?!!!

Logical isn't it? If a guy does not even bother to look good for himself and love himself, do you even think he will give a damn about you? Humans are selfish, it's only natural instinct that they love themselves more than anyone else. So how can someone know how to love and care for you when they are not even apt to love and care for themselves?!

Maybe many people may rebuke me or say I'm superficial and materialistic but to be truthful, I do not lie to myself, I love myself to death and that's why I know how to love someone and pamper them, just like how I dote on myself.

So lastly to sum up after such a long long post,

Girls, those who like boys, men. Choose a guy who knows how to love themselves but still love you more than themselves.

Guys, do not complain about not having girlfriends. Make the girls swoon at your feet. Do something about how you look. First impression counts. Another personal piece of suggestion: Be well dressed and DO NOT come up with some cheesy, corny pickup lines, just walk straight ahead to the girl and talk to her.

That's all folks!!!
