Real men?
What happened to the men who knew how to change a tire? And fix shit around the house?
Do yall exist anymore? Rugged mountain men? Well not quite mountain men but you catch my drift.
I remember walking through the mall with an ex...we walked by one of those pottery barn type stores...in the front window is a bakeware set, one of the pans (like a cup cake pan) is on display, the cupcake resovior is in the shape of a flower. This nigga says:
"I wanna get that." -Him
"For what?" -Me
"To bake! Make some little petite cakes and drizzle a sugar glaze over top while its still warm." -Him
:crickets:
"What?" -Him
"NIGGA THAT'S GAY!" -Me
"No it's not!" -Him
Needless to say it was downhill from there.
Seems like all the men I meet are metro sexual or leaning HARD to that side. I mean...you get manicures more often than I do! You sit at your desk at work buffing your nails! You suggesting how I should wear my hair...I'm not talking about suggesting I wear it curly or straight, I mean broke wristed suggestions like:
"Get some highlights in chestnut and maybe low lights in a mahogany."
or
"A nice asymmetrical cut would look good on you."
I do not want my man to know what highlights and low lights are! And damn sure don't want him suggesting colors to me! No, no nigga. Leave that up to my hairdresser Twan, Kay? Thanks.
If you have more clothes than me...we have a serious problem!
I'm not saying you can't do metro sexual shit. Getting pedicures (no polish) shows me you care how your feet feel when you rub them on my legs at night but just don't be extra with it.
Just like a woman should be dainty and feminine, a man should be strong and masculine. And if you plan on being my man, I expect nothing less from you than to embody that role.

That's what it is these days. And that's what you have to keep your eyes open for. The baking tho, I don't really had a problem with that. Nor do I have an issue with a man getting a pedi or having more clothes than me. I loved a man who knows how to dress. But I would be turned off by the highlights thing.
@Nightfall YAAASSSSSS! We love boondocks round these parts lol!
@Krissy I don't have a problem with baking but...going out your way to make flower cup cakes? Nuh uh lol. I love a man who can dress...but some of them...are TOO excessive with it. Like if we moved in together he would need the big closet and that just simply won't work for me lol
Shiiiiiiit I could use a SPa treatment my damn self. But I dont know nothing about hair highlights and baking. I just wanna be fresh and clean thats all.
@Miss bee PREACH! Let the church say amen *fans self with MLK Jr. church fan*
@Nightfall ain't a dayum thing wrong with that lol
