Men are more vain than women
It's true...every time we guys walk by a mirror, we primp, we do our hair. The fastest growing segment in beauty and skin care products is mens products.

Guys just have to accept this little tidbit...

9. It's not out of strength
Its to have that uber-cut look.

If youre at the gym, and you see a real estate guy who looks like a professional body builder - chances are hes doping

3. My guy would accept it
with no problem. I shower, dress and go to work. Takes me about 20 minutes to get out of the house.

He has to shower and then spend an hour working on his hair. If it's not perfect, he wears a hat and bitches about it all day.

I think it's funny.

8. i agree, i made the mistake of buying my husband some of that
new fangled hair paste/cream/wax to replace the hair gel he was using for years, well that purchase lead to some fancy pants cleaning stuff for his face and so on. His preening time in the mirror has gone up a lot.

12. Not likely
A great number of men are thuggish and licentious; but women have a patent on vanity.

And ladies, please, don't say you do it for us.
