    Here you are!

    Modern enlightened, sort of rennasance man. Secure and confident, capable and cool, typically well educated and stylish. Heterosexual with a twist, not gay by any means, but he probally has a few gay friends, and can easily be mistaken for gay by rednecks and jock types. The only straight guy in a fabric store or antique shop who is not being dragged there by a woman.

    "You're so metrosexual"

    Shortened down it means a man who is obsessed by his outer appearance.

    "...he probally has a few gay friends.."

    I can think of 3 that I met recently. went in a local travel agent to investigate my skiing trip to be told they only do Wallace Arnold coach trips to the London Eye. "Town full of codgers, we're just a town full of codgers...."
