Despite the increasing number of metrosexual men in the world, most women would probably love it if their beau were to drop the hammer and tool belt and pick up a pair of tweezers, once in a while.

Even mainstream sex symbols like Russell Crowe fancy facials and wouldn’t dream of leaving home without their signature mussed looks. Becoming gender benders of mammoth proportions, manly men who meticulously groom their hair, skin and nails are the new male sex symbols. Ah…there can never be too many men like Russell Crowe.
