Manscaping, my Foot!


Sometimes ago, I was having my car oil changed at a workshop when a guy sauntered into the waiting room. One thing about him that instantly caught my attention was the whoosh of smell that followed his movement. He was drenched in perfume…and I thought perfume was for women while men used cologne. The second thing about the guy was that he appeared to have just had some make-ups done.  

Shortly afterward, the guy stood up to walk out of the room. As he did so, I could not resist the impulse to stare at him. And as I did this, a woman that sat close by me smiled and shook her head.

“That’s some ‘manscaping’…isn’t it?” she asked me.

“Manscaping?” I asked. “What’s that?”

The woman explained that “manscaping” was used to describe the process where a man would undergo manicure, pedicure, hair styling, facials and a whole lot of stuff that a woman would do. But in conclusion, the woman remarked that the guy overdid it.

Overdid it? That was the biggest understatement of the year! That guy looked more feminine than masculine.

When a man starts applying make-ups and doing all kinds of feminine stuff, what does he expect his wife or woman to do?

Manscaping, my foot!
