My feeling is that it appears to be harbored in a few areas. A false pride spill over from misguided father figures, a mis-perception about what it means to be a man, and media stereotypes. Do what you want, life is short. As for as the nail polish, I ma not there. For me it is not my cup of tea. Thanks for the reply. Dan John.

Why are men afraid to take care of themselves and do a little 'fixing up' to look and feel better? It's obvious that it works for women. Men sometimes have high-stress jobs, so all the more reason to relax, unwind and enjoy some personal care. My wife managed to talk me into my first pedicure five years ago while traveling. Maybe the new venue allowed me to relax enough to try it, but whatever the reason, it got me hooked instantly! It made my feet feel and look so much younger that my wife even bought me a new pair of leather sandals to wear during the rest of the trip. I have noticed that there is more noise about men getting polish with pedicures and clear seems to be the most common color, though french and dark colors have been mentioned as well for men. I am intrigued by this new style but haven't gotten up the nerve to try it yet. I wonder if any readers or the author have any more experience with this.
