Today, I heard my mother say, "I feel bad for any girl that marries him because he's, what's the word? Metrosexual!" To my girlfriend. About me. FML

Hey guys! OP here to shed light on the situation. Homecoming is this weekend and my girlfriend, mother and I were out getting the final vest and tie to finish off my attire, so I can match my girlfriend's dress. Then my mom said that. She isn't ignorant, a bigot, or anything of the sort. She was joking around and said it proudly. She went on to say that "if you're in the store buying face cream to stay smooth or whatever it is, he's right there with you to look good too" Which has an element of truth in it. I try to look good and keep myself hygienic and it pays off. It's also a bit of curiosity to be honest too! There's so many things for girls!! Anyway, my girlfriend laughed with her, and yes that's probably one of the reasons she's with me. Hope you all enjoyed!

Maybe is overly metrosexual? I know a few men that are more groomed then most females which sometimes can make you feel uncomfortable. Especially metrosexual men that never let you touch their "amazing" hair.

Let's hope she takes your mother's warning.

I wouldn't be worried. Your gf already knows--and is prob dating you because of it. Switch it up and go more lumbersexual (metrosexual version of a lumberjack--it's a thing).

You can dress nice and still be manly.

A lot of gals find metrosexual to be an attractive trait, so I wouldn't worry about it. Your girlfriend is probably one of them.

Hey, good for you, OP! It's always better than being a slob, no matter the gender or sexuality! :)

If you can't tell it was all in jest, you may need something to make you relax, or read the follow up a bit closer

If your girlfriend truly loves you, she won't believe your mom.
