Metrosexual
Metrosexual is a neologism, derived from metropolitan and heterosexual, coined in 1994 describing a man (especially one living in an urban, post-industrial, capitalist culture) who is especially meticulous about his grooming and appearance, typically spending a significant amount of time and money on shopping as part of this. The term originated as play on the term homosexual in order to contrast heterosexuals who adopt fashions and lifestyles stereotypically associated with homosexuals.
