metrosexual

     

Metrosexual is a neologism generally applie to heterosexual men with a strong concern for their appearance. For example, they may have eyebrows waxed, fingers manicured, facials etc. procedures which are generally eschewed by the average male. The metro- (motherpolis is Greek for "city" while metro is Greek for "mother" (hence metropolis is "mother city", necropolis is "city of the dead", etc.) Polissexual would mean "citysexual" but metrosexual means "mothersexual".</ref>) prefix indicates this man's purely urban lifestyle, while the -sexual suffix comes from "heterosexual," meaning that this man, although he is usually straight, embodies a heightened aesthetic sense often stereotypically attributed to gay men.
