Being sick is only one of the things that turn you guys from macho men into gloomy guys. This one goes back to the superficial vanity that I was talking about. You won't show it, or let us know, but insecurity hits you almost as hard as it does us females. Yet, psychologically, we are more inclined to be succeptible into changing or doing something to mask it, hoping that the outside world doesn't notice what it is we are trying to hide.
Cosmo mag reveals that you share some very similar insecurities as we women do, however, I'm going to have a little fun with this one, and kick it up a notch. The first, is your Diet (refer to My Girl's on a Diet for a funny read on this topic). Summer's here fellas, and we know you're "watching your figure" just as we girls watch ours. You won't show it, but we know that when you get home, you're eating light, substituting a bowl of cereal for that large dinner you generally eat, Want some extra pointers? Do what we do, watch Dr. Oz :) Also, we know that you're trying to burn fat and tone up for your next feature and concern...those abs. You want that beachy six pack, that fresh out of the ocean, water dripping across each ripple as you walk towards us look, and yes we get it. Just don't overdo it fellas. The amount of time you invest in making yourself look good is the amount of time we lose out on spending with you.
Hair. I'm just going to group this one into a lump. Hair is a very important thing to both men and women alike. We'll admit the amount of time and effort that it takes in order for us to maintain grooming standards, from our actual hair, to keeping our legs silky smooth, and to also upkeep those other private regions. Now you guys won't admit it, but you feel the same way about your hair. Men tend to begin losing theirs around a certain age, so they like to keep it perfectly maintained while they still have it. Men, you are also aware of your chest hair, belly hair, facial hair, and other excesses that we need not talk about. Of course, we get it, you don't want to look like Austin Powers, and trust me, while you may feel insecure about it, we appreciate your efforts, because we want you to appreciate ours. Just remember, sometimes that little bit of facial hair, can sort of be a turn on if done right. So don't worry so much about this one being a major insecurity...just don't use our razors...or our shaving gel lol.
This one is my favorite...your hands. Its partially our fault. Media has suggested the use of a man's hands as a measuring guide to their units for years. Some sources say measuring the lenth of their middle finger to where their hand meets the wrist is the indicator of a man's size. But fellas, not everyone goes by that. I will tell you what you should worry about though. We love holding your hand, we love intertwining our fingers with yours, we love when you measure our hands against yours. We love when your hands stroke us, our hair, our arms, our backs, when we can rest our cheek into your hands. So because of all of this, you really should focus on keeping those bad boys SOFT. No girl wants to feel dead, dry skin caressing our face. So if you're a man with a hands on job that causes cracking, blisters, and bruising, invest some money in manicures and paraffin waxes...they do WONDERS!
I will admit, you fellas are much better at keeping your insecurities at bay than us women are. You make it all sound like it's part of your daily routines. You know 5min shaving here, 5 min grooming there, 10min showers, 2 hour to 3 hour workouts, quick meals because you can eat almost anything and burn it almost instantly, and you're all good to go. As far as the hands one, you'd rather them be manly and work-beaten than go to a nail salon to fix them up, but the truth is, there's no shame in making your hands super smooth to the touch. Just don't tell us how you do it, even though, we know.
