1) Dresses sharp. By dressing sharp, I mean a guy who might wear a light pink shirt or tie for dinner. I think if you can get away with wearing pink and it looks good then why not! Pinks hot IMO! In addition, guys need to be more fashion conscious and we need to stop dressing like animals. Most guys don't know how to dress! They have their guts hanging over their belts while they scratch their beer stained t-shirt. Nasty!

2) Is very clean. What's wrong with being exceptionally clean? I love the feeling when my apartment and car are clean. When I clean I'm in a great mood. I hate dust and I hate clothes thrown on the floor. Why must guys or people have to live like pigs?

3) Likes to shop. I love to shop for clothes and other items. Why is it wrong for a guy to shop for clothes by himself? There is nothing wrong with it.

4) Keeps care of his body! What's wrong with having a great body? You don't have to be gay to want to have a six pack or nice biceps. There is nothing wrong with it. It seems that most guys could care less so they drink beer every night and grow a beer gut. Don't bitch when your gf/wive leaves you for the aerobics instructor. Keeping in shape and having a great body equal?s better sex!

Just my opinion. :)


1) I wear what is comfortable. Usually thats jeans and either a short sleeved shirt, or, if the weather is cold, a sweatshirt. Ties, and other dress clothing is just uncomfortable, they limit mobility, and cost too much money.

2) I am a very clean person. All my dirty clothes go into the dirty clothes baskets in my closet. They are seperated by whites and colored and get washed once the bins fill up, usually once a week. Dishes are washed before they pile up and the old food dries on. Countertops are wiped after use. The bathroom is clean, the b-room sink is always clean, and I routinely wipe down the countertop in the bathroom as well. I keep my room as clean as possible. Since dust will cause never ending problems with my allergies, dusting is a must. I try to keep all papers in the appropriate file folders in my desk drawer as well.

3) I enjoy shopping for computer components, electronics, books, and DVDs mainly, and only when I know have sufficient funds. Being able to shop without adding up everything you are putting in the cart is a good feeling. I rarely shop for clothing though. The clothing I currently have is fine, why buy more? I've done a some clothing shopping on the internet as well, but mainly for socks and undershirts.

4) I don't see how having a good body can make someone labeled gay. I work out on a regular basis myself, usually more than 7 days a week because I work out in the afternoon and late at night when I get out of work.

I'm not gay.

What Bateluer said. That sums me up too.

People label it gay because its more of a feminine trait. Thus the more feminine things you do, the more likely you will be called gay. Although i think now a days keeping clean is not longer considered "gay"

I think we're twins :Q

Or gay lovers. One of the two. :p j/k

Although I don't exactly fit any of these categories perfectly, I don't think they're necessarily "gay". Although the clothes shopping by yourself for entertainment thing... that's a little weird.

I wish in Palm Beach County...that's not the reasons.

The guys that talk about it all the time are why....

'no honey you have to have Prada with this outfit'.

'only watches I buy are IWC'

'it's the summer, why are you wearing....THAT?!?!'

that's the reasons.
