Does this make me look fat?

Like it or not, the metrosexual craze is not just a fad. It's a lifestyle that men across America are embracing. And it's not just hip, urban, 20 somethings with faux-hawks either. Now it's reaching beyond into the strata of 35 and betters. This is apparent by the release of Vogue's new men's magazine Men's Vogue.

Say good bye to the skinny (EAT A SANDWICH!) dressed-in-sex women that cover other mags such as Maxim (I'm not linking to it because it's trash).

"The demographic being sought are men over 35 with incomes of more than $100,000. These men are presumably ignored by such magazines as the service-oriented Men's Health or beer-and-babes Maxim and FHM (the latter of which has an article this month on a day in the life of Tera Patrick, one of the world's top porn stars - accompanied, of course, by photos)."--Read the entire article here.

Can a men's magazine survive without selling sex? I would love to see it.

You are a Vogue man if ...
1. You shave - and not just your face. In fact, a real Vogue Man is not afraid to wax.
2. You agree that facials are not just for girls.
3. You think yachts and rare whiskies are potential purchases.
4. You buy wine by the vintage, not the price tag.
5. You care about the world of interior design.
6. You think fast food is something Other People eat.
7. You have your suits tailored.
8. A six-pack is not something you drink, but sculpt working out at the gym.
9. You care about shoes as much as Carrie from Sex and the City - and you are not afraid to show it.
10. NY-LON is your transatlantic route, not a pair of synthetic tights.
