5. Shaving Armpits
6. Trimming Pubic Area
7. Completely Shaving Pubic Area
8. Cosmetic Surgery (to improve facial appearence)

[DebbieL]

I found this on the internet in a blog and thought it was a pretty fun list to compare to...

Which of these beautifying steps are too girly for a man?

It was a list for gg to respond to and almost all gg thought if men were doing many of the below, they are definitely very girly and well, not quite manly :)

1. Pedicures - Lovem
2. Tanning Salons - Spray on
3. Using Concealers on Face - Done it - even as Rex
4. Shaving Legs - Done it, also waxing.
5. Shaving Armpits - Done it
6. Trimming Pubic Area - Done it
7. Completely Shaving Pubic Area - Done it
8. Cosmetic Surgery (to improve facial appearence) - Electrolysis, waxing, laser..
9. Plucking Eybrows (or at least trimming to giver neater appearance) - both pluck and trim, to fine lines.

As for which is to girly for men to do - none of the above. I know men who do some or all of the above.

[ReineD]

!. Pedicures - No, although I do occasionally apply toe polish in the summer.
2. Tanning Salons - No. I care about the effect of aging on my skin.
3. Concealers - Yes, on occasion.
4. Shaving legs - Yes, although not so much during the winter months.
5. Saving Armpits - Same as #4, but then hair growth is very slow there.
6. Trimming Pubic Area - No.
7. Completely Shaving Pubic Area - No.
8. Cosmetic Surgery - No.
9. Plucking Eyebrows - yes.

So if I give myself half a point for each #1, #3, #4, & #5, according to your list I am only 4 out of 9 points girly, which is less than 50%, which is interesting for a GG who sees herself as being very feminine. :D
