RETROSEXUAL (n.) a man who adopts a traditional masculine style in dress and manners.
Antonym: Metrosexual (n.) a usually urban heterosexual male given to fastidious grooming, beauty treatments, and fashionable clothes.
This is genius. As a woman who would much rather look like Mad Men's Joan Harris than Jenna Jameson, the only (obvious) improvement would be to expand this definition to members of both genders.
Perhaps we could expand this to behaviors as well? I don't care about your car or your phone or your iPad, but I'd swoon if you held the door for me, or stood when I entered the room.
Here's to ladies and gentlemen!
