thIn LinE

Hello,

Met a fellow blogger recently as she happened to be in the area. We met up for a shopping spree of sorts, well at least she was in whatever limited time we had. she was frantically choosing stuff from the racks of MNG when i met up with her. She is tall, well dressed with the curves in the necessary places i might add! ( if you are reading this, i like your curves!, hope you are not too offended by my roaming eyes).

Well, i guess we hit it off ok considering we were rushing from one place to another buying this and buying that. we should really have sometime to just sit down and have a chat, i mean shopping sprees do not count as a meeting up, strictly speaking of course.

Anyways, have you noticed that there are more guys who are experimenting with the colour pink nowadays! I've seen guys in pink shirts, tees and also pink ties! altho i hafta admit, there were more misses than hits! but considering that us guys are beginning to wear pink, i think that qualifies as an achievement of some sort.

I myself wear pink as i am quite comfortable with it, for me, its just another colour, it could even be the new black! but then, who am i, certainly not miranda priestly! Anyways, i like pink, i like colour and i think pink is a nice colour. i lurve my pink shirts and i lurve my pink ties. Provided of course you mix and match. Pink shirt and a red tie is so staid. pink shirt and a baby blue tie looks nice or maybe a baby blue shirt with a pink tie is nice too, provided the hues are matching.

tight hugging shirts, buttock hugging pants, dolled up hair and accessories, i do not think if a guy who has all this attributes can be considered as a gay! c'mon people, straight guys or metrosexuals have the same attributes.

If a guys keeps himself well, by getting a haircut ( at a hair saloon as opposed to the barber)once in awhile, shaves every couple of days, uses aftershave and perfume, ( maybe goes for a facial once in awhile)wears nicely ironed shirts, ( maybe with bright or multi coloured cuff links)( and the shirts are with some colour of course, maybe pink, lilac or purple?) and pants and polished shoes and maybe with an accessory or two, ( thumb ring, anklet, bracelet or a chain round the neck)does this mean he is gay or is he just concerned with his appearance? hence the term metrosexual?

How about if a guy goes to the gym to keep fit ( yoga and pilates maybe)and have a toned body, prefers the theaters ( KLPac and Actors studio has good comedies) and musicals ( i personally found that CATS was very good!)rather than loud stadiums or smoke filled race tracks, enjoys listening to r&b and jazz ( top room and Alexis are all time favs) rather than punk rock or whatever? enjoys good food ( frangipani, Bon Ton and Top Hat comes to mind)does this mean the guy is gay or does this guy appreciate the arts? do tell?

Personally, it all boils down to the individual. A person can wear pink and be fashionable, takes care of his personal hygiene and his body and loves the arts, and still be straight!

I do not know why some narrow minded souls think when a guy who fulfills all the above has to be a gay person, hello, knock knock on those thick skulls! some guys are just like that, they care and prefer to do stuff which makes them feel and look good, is that so wrong? Heck, i even know some of them who participates in extreme sports for goodness sakes and are quite good at it. I know of a person who does wall climbing, has an advance cert in scuba diving, plays paintball at the highest level possible and used to play rugby and football and has all the above mentioned qualities or interest and he wears a pashmina to work sometimes? FYI, this guy is straight as i do know him personally and he has a string of girlfriends.

Is this guy gay? metrosexual? what people? do tell? I know its a thIn LinE, but please please understand before jumping or assuming something or another.
