Femininely Macho......can outwit females by their vanity cases
Two days ago, I was going through one of the articles about Gordon Brown’s exposed vanity case and his make up regime. I felt it to be a bit funny…..just ask him.......he might be red hot & even his make up wont be able to hide it. I was really amused at the detailed description the male author has provided …..it seemed as if he might have tried some of the beauty products himself.

It reminded me of the time when I was a hostler during my senior secondary. I still remember very well that how our PTI had suspended a boy from attending the classes of Physical education for about a week …………..just because his beautician had threaded his eyebrows too an extent that they looked like arch’s drawn with a sharp HB pencil. The poor boy was grounded for a week …………………though I am sure he might have thanked the stars that he was not asked to run 15 rounds of the big school ground………..which was the favorite punishment of our macho PTI.as if it was a national news.....How mean of us. believe me I don’t lie,its just that sometimes my imagination runs wild which is as rare as seeing a camel desperately trying to make his way through Delhi's traffic. Though Mr. Xprsns nick name had nothing to do with any of his unusual habits which qualified him to a direct entry in Agra's mental hospital ......contrary to his name he was always expresionless. We were taken aback when he recommended his home made pack of fuller’s earth (multani mitti) & some other peculiar ingredients to Deepanjali, my best friend.
He insisted - “Deepanjali, belive me the usage of my pack followed by Ever youth’s orange peel off shall make your skin soft and blemish free, just like mine”. “Hey! Why are you guys laughing”-he quipped bit shyly………He sounded much more like a fair & lovely commercial……..….too girlish, isn’t it.

“I am sorry, I won’t use it and after all I don’t want to compete with you in the forthcoming beauty pageant” Deepanjali had replied just the way she used to with a glint of mischief in her eyes. She added-“I will prefer to clap for you while you are being crowned”

These are not the only instances which make me feel that –‘males love to look good & secretly use beauty products’. Somehow accepting this truth is hard for them as it doesn’t gel with their Macho image. Males do have a skin, they too can get a sun tan & even pollution can also affect their skin. So it’s not a big deal if they use some of the skin care products.
But believe me it really becomes funny when you think that some of the males even apply foundation, compact, concealer etc. I will rather call them Feminine Macho’s and believe me I shall love to see one in real life…….I wonder what this new clan of ultraaa -metrosexuals look like.

Mr. Xsprsns that was the nick name of one of the hostler who used to apply rich layers of face packs………….

When we gals discussed the same issue in our dormitory we were in splits of laughter. Ironically none of us has ever undergone the pain of threading till then as we were least bothered about our looks and had plenty other issues to deal with. Its no doubt that we girls like a bit of gossiping and the habit is at its peek in teenage and as a result almost everybody in the hostel was informed about the incident……
