Sorry, But it is a fact that over the last 50 years plus media coverage on female beauty and its perception of the female form have been targeted towards all women from a very young age and it has now become an obsession,

Male beauty and male beauty products did not exist other than aftershave and deodorants other products for men are a resent thing and as such over the last 10 years or so has now for the first time started to have that same affect on some males, But only those who appear to spend more time in the bathroom than their female partners, I do no of such men and most only took an interest after pressure from the female partners

So pressure from the media and the pressure from some females is now leading men down the same route and it is all media led

we are all free to buy or not to buy and as for TV coverage we no how to change channel and how to switch it off,

women love to watch programs about this subject but if no one watched them the programmers would not broadcast them

Roy, you are stating that "some" men are starting to use male beauty products but perhaps suggesting that all "women love to watch programs about this subject". Not all women are interested in these programs. I'm not and I know a lot of women who aren't interested either. I don't think I'm influenced by the media - I don't want to look like a 20 y.o. - although perhaps my OH would ;-)

The advent of male beauty products is an extension of the obsession with looking young that is media driven but also "Hollywood" driven to a certain extent. Having said that - my adult son uses a shaving balm because aftershave lotion is irritating on his skin so I'm glad for that advancement in male bathroom products.

Roy "women love to watch programs about this subject but if no one watched them the programmers would not broadcast them"


do they? Personally I prefer a good murder, or property /antiques/ gardening/history programmes ;-)

I don't watch the soaps anymore either... omg maybe I am un-natural :-D

Like Sue I liked to * look after me self * I like to dress nice and put me slap on even for work, its the way I have always since I was 14, I seem to have a constant battle with my weight for a life time however the only mans attention I am interested in is Itsmytellys ( and Jamie Rednapps) now Itsmytelly has seen me at worse and still loves me so what I do care :-D

Just out of interest, and I'm off to bed so shan't reply tonight, but do you think women watch soaps more than men do because ( as a very broad generalisation) men are interested in how 'things' work and women more interested in how people 'tick'?

Night all :-D
