Male Grooming

[Arvaos]

Men, you won't get anywhere with women unless you start grooming.

That means getting your haircut at the Turkish barbers to get your hair trimmed and shaving your body hair.

Make sure you hit the gym and get a nice suit too.

I see so many guys on here complaining but if you want to meet a girl, you have to show some effort!

They said never judge a book by its cover but if the cover is all you have to go off of then don’t be surprised.

i have really long hair, I am never sacrificing my long hair and getting it cut short.

That's up to you.

Some women like the long hair look as long as you are hygienic with it.

Everyone is different.

Buzz the back and sides down. Best of both worlds.

What if you go bald? You may not have that choice.

I’d look like maynard james keenan if I did that.

Ah, so you believe that those roots are and should be still valid? Fine, I have no problem with that. So then homophobic means: you are a man who is afraid of other men. And transphobic means: you are afraid of what is on the other side. So afraid of death or spirituality I guess?

I’m pretty hygienic with my hair, always shiny, it’s kinda thick though.

You make a lot of good points but this one is pretty silly.

You make a lot of good points I happen to agree with but this one is pretty silly.

First, by your own argument it would be Androphobic which is being afraid of men. Homophobic is being afraid of that which is the same, so maybe you have a fear of twins or something. >_>

Second, word forming roots have relatively little to do with this particular argument. They're insightful, but I'm more concerned with what a word means when it is inducted into our modern post-shakespearian English language.

Third, when I said always, I meant always. You can cross reference with more recent dictionaries if you like[www.thefreedictionary.com], but really, the language has changed little since the early 19th century, if at all.

Fourth, Apollo702 was the one complaining about change, so of course showing that it is no different now from how it was back then is relevant.

Finally, I do rather consistently prioritize Noah Webster's definitions over others. The whole point of a word is to refer to some preassigned meaning. They become meaningless if the meanings change all of the time.

-Get a good haircut
-Hit the gym
-Dress well

All good points. Although I don't agree with the specifics. You don't need a Turkish barber or a suit, but you should have a flattering haircut and a nice outfit.

Ah is that what you meant. I thought you meant arguments. These points are advice.

Correct, but gender is implied with "homophilia" as well so I just mirrored that.
