Are Men More Vain Than Women?

Are Men More Vain Than Women?

The Unspoken Man Code has many rules. Next pitcher’s on us. No crying at any movies rated PG or lower. Eyes forward at the urinal at all times. Another: Never admit you’re worried about how you look.   

It’s doubtful that you’ll hear many men ask anybody how they look in their jeans, or if their back hair is getting too Konglike, or if that flabby jiggle hanging over the belts is something they should be concerned about. While it may be common for women to articulate their bodily insecurities (in hopes that men will dismiss them, perhaps), men rarely say anything about theirs. That’s because they’re afraid that women will label them as too vain, too weak, too metro, too feminine, too devoid of the confidence they want and expect in a man.   

But the truth is that men care almost as much about their appearance as Lindsay Lohan cares about New Year’s Eve. The survey I did for my book Men, Love & Sex showed that 9 in 10 men aren’t satisfied with their appearance — and that they’d jump at the chance at changing one particular part of their body if they could. Consider these truths about men and their appearance — and then ask yourself, Who’s really more vain, women…or men?   

  • Women may buy more shoes, but men drop the big bucks. When asked how much he’d pay for rock-hard abs (if it was only that easy), the average guy would invest $5,000 of his own money in himself. For movie-star looks in general, he’d drop $17,600. The scary fact: Although more women actually pay for cosmetic enhancements, men who seek medical help for their appearance are twice as likely to opt for an invasive cosmetic procedure like liposuction rather than a non-invasive appearance boost.
  • Men care more about their boobs than you do. Check this out: Only 34 percent of women surveyed said they’d want bigger breasts, but 38 percent of men said they’d want larger pectoral muscles. (If you were wondering, the circumference of the average man’s chest is two inches larger than that of a woman’s.) Men either have the pecs that are strong enough to break knuckles, or we’re subjected to the ubiquitous man-boob barbs. And that hurts. Beating pecs as the top male body issue by the tiniest of jiggles: Just over 40 percent of guys say the gut is the No. 1 body part they’d like to change.   
  • $1.1 billion can buy a lot of hair gel. One of a man’s biggest frets comes when he looks down the shower drain and says goodbye to the mane that defines his manhood. American men spend more than $300 million on toupees annually. And $800 million on hair transplants (up to $20,000 for each procedure, which is performed on more than 24,000 men annually-and just 7,000 women).   

Now ladies, you may be tempted to decry this as further evidence of the wimpification of the American male. Or say that men are the new women. But let’s think this through a little bit. Vanity, of course, can be shallow and self obsessive. As ever, if you take anything to extremes, it becomes a liability. But this time of the year in particular, vanity, properly calibrated, can be a useful form of self-evaluation. And in fact, how we look does have direct corollaries in how healthy we are. That jiggly gut or flabby chest can be a warning of dangerously low metabolism, an early warning sign of high blood pressure, diabetes, even heart disease. And if we take those warnings for what they are, and act to change, our vanity just might turn us around in the short run, and save lives in the long run.   

Think men have their appearance priorities in the right place? Or should they be worried about something else when it comes to their image and looks? Let me know.

My X-mas vacation.

January 19th, 2007 by robert-las-vegas

Intro

This x-mas vacation was twice the blast as last year. As I left on December 14 in Las Vegas the first thing that came to my mind was "Damn I think I won’t be able to appear in the CSA x-mas party" but then when I arrive there my cousin Micheal ( who is now 1st year hs and he is in my photo too) told me that it will be held on the 19… phew. 

My Arrival

I arrived in December 16 around 5am in the morning at the airport and for a year I finally saw my grandmother again she was so happy to see me. After a 14hr flight I finally got home and unpacked my things my room is still the same as it was when I left and so is my dog Koby he still remembers me. Then later that night I went to greenbelt3 and ate at "Haiku" because I love japanese foods with my friends James, Paolo and Bondoc they were late because they came from Tagaytay lol. After we ate we went somewhere in Ortigas in a place called "Metrowalk" I remember who drove that day it was James.. Damn James you drive like a crazy! >.<

X-mas Party

Then came the CSA x-mas party that day I remembered very well because lots of stuff happened to me in that day hehe. The 1st thing that happened was I got pulled over on that STUPID BUS LANE!!! I was very frightened because I only have my Nevada liscense with me. The police officer and I had a long talk he was almost going to give me a ticket but he let it slipped :) Then there I was in the Csa gate.. They let me in even without a sticker because the guards still recognized me there hehe and I know the director of the gs faculty :) After that I went inside the hs building and notice that nobody was there.. hmm.. then I saw Horhe (one of my friends)walking around said to me "they are in the CCs" so I went there and saw my old teachers. I went to greet them and have many conversations about stuff. After in the CC I was kinda disappointed that the x-mas party was soooo booooringgg…. they won’t even let visitors go in! but for me I sneaked inside the classrooms one at a time :) Another thing that not only disappointed me but also broke my heart was my friend who snobbed me as I greeted her… After all this years I still remember her but she completely dissed me.. *sigh*. Anyways I went to visit my cousin and my other friends the only person that I havn’t visit was Machi! she was absen’t on that day…

After the boring x-mas party I picked up my cousin and meet up with my friends in gb3 and we watched "Happy Feet" before that we all splitted up doing our own stuff so we all meet up infront of the entrance in the third floor. The clock was ticking I and my cousin was late as I grabbed him quickly I heard my name in the distance, as I look to where I heard my name was I recognized those people who where sitting on the far table (you think I didn’t notice huh). I was gonna approach them and say hi but… they might snob me so I was just gonna embarass myself infront everyone so screw it. After the movie um… I kinda forgot but I think we ate somewhere probably another japanese food then went out…

Weeks has past by…

I remember going to ATC, MOA, paintballing, Tagaytay and mostly reunions.. but the one of the most memorable day I have was in Enchanted Kingdom! :) I have so much fun and so many laugh trips too. I remember that Xavier has worn two different eye contacts lol it rocks though. There was also the picture in the swinging pirate ship thing it was soo funny (the pic is in my gallery). Then I remember going again and again in the Rio Grand and Jungle log jam the Log jam pics was soo funny too lol but when it comes to who was very wet lol it was Beli!! haha

X-mas and New years eve

The purpose of why I am in the philipines is to have x-mas with my grandmother because not only I’m her favorite but I’m also the only guy in my whole family! most of my cousins are girls.. well shall I say hot girls most of them has mixed blood like: half canadian, australian and american although I’m also mixed blood (half american-filipino-chinese) so its kinda even.

New year is alright too it wasn’t as good as the last year because most of my families didn’t came (they were out of the country) but what I will cherish is it was the first time I spend my night with my grandmother in our local church… I never saw her pray in a church before.. she only contributes money.

Ending…

It has finally came to my last week in the Philipines… One of my favorite cousins named Karra has already left to canada two days after the new year so as her last request she wants me to join her in the new year party in rockwell… I also invited Kyle one of my friend since childhood. When we arrive there I saw one of my.. uh.. well her nickname was Nikki… even it was kinda dark to see I can tell she was thinner and way more hotter in my last encounter with her. She immediately recognized me as a quick reaction I fled the scene (stupid…) I hope there is an another chance that I might see her again soon hehe.

After that I’ve been constantly invited to many parties but I have to refuse most of them because there is a person that I haven’t seen in a long time and I would like to go out with her (don’t worry I won’t say your name ^_^). The finale of my vacation was my DESPEDIDA thanks to Kyle again it wouln’t have happened. We went to the fort danced till there was no tomorrow! Special mention to MARTIN who was incredibly drunk! hey good thing I watched his back through the whole night for he was so close of getting into trouble….

Basically after that I slept just a little bit, then packed my things and went to the airport. It was a memorable vacation I would like to thanks all the people who still remembered me and gave me a hella of a good time! Hope to see you all again next year! I won’t forget you all.

P.S.

Oh btw I’m really sorry for the many many many people whom I hadnt invited. My phone was broke for almost a week and it couldn’t be fixed! there will be always next year you know I promise. Oh I might be back in this summer too.. its still unplanned though.
