metrosexuality
Stylish urban masculinity
Metrosexuality is a man's embrace of grooming, fashion, and aesthetic self-care traditionally associated with women or gay men.
The term emerged in the 1990s to describe urban heterosexual men who spent significant time and money on their appearance—skincare, styled hair, designer clothes—without implications about their sexuality.
His metrosexuality showed in his immaculate eyebrows and coordinated accessories.
