Default Ok so this guy at my work.......waxed his eyebrows!

Yea so this guy at my work about my age waxed his eyebrows

He seemed to be ashamed of it as he wore these bug eye glasses
all night (3rd shift) till another co-worker noticed something
'different' late in the shift when he took them off.

He then confessed...

Two things to note he doesn't have a uni-brow and now they
seem kinda shaped with a bit of an arch to them

Is this the new thing with being some kind of metro(gay)sexual?

Do you guys know 'guys' who do these types of things? I mean I'm pretty sure he's not gay as he does have a wife...weird.

I have seen many desi guys who shape their eyebrows... You can tell right away... On most of them, it didn't look good.

It's not about being gay...

Yeah, tons of guys do it. I did it once many many many years ago. It hurt too much, and I care too little about my looks to ever do it again. Whether or not it looks good or not, I think it depends on how much you do it.

I would have thought that this kind of thing would be considered trying to imitate women and not allowed.

I'm glad I wouldn't have to worry about something like this, even if I wasn't against waxing.

Its nothing to do with being gay and everything to do with current prevailing trends and perceptions of what's attractive and what's not.

Many people have naturally arched eyebrows that taper off very sharply and are well defined. My own eyebrows are like that.

And that's something that people find attractive because it provides much more definition, it constitutes part of what is considered to be sharp, chiseled, dark features and in the case of eyebrows, it goes for both men and women.

The problem is - as always - self-image and what the mass media promotes as being the "ideal". It makes people become more self-conscious, and some people who don't have very strong self-esteem succumb to such popular ideals and undergo all types of procedures or systems, trying to make themselves fit the mold better.

There are men [and women of course] who will undergo all types of cosmetic procedures to redefine their bodies and faces.

Actually it is a problem sometimes.

If you're a nice or attractive looking straight guy, you do get hit on by gays. It happened to me at work and I went straight to HR and got that fag disciplined.
