"Oh btw, I saw a new term that I think fits me to a T. You both know the word Metrosexual right? Well a new poll was done on who was 'Ubersexual'. IE: The opposite of metrosexual, Ubersexual signifies a manly man."
We were joking about changing HPF/Nipples/Scar's nickname to Ubie. Perhaps re-nicknaming him will become a weekly feature? LOL!
Have you heard about the Uber-sexual thing my Flowers?
Here's the low-down.
JWT (as in J. Walter Thompson, the oldest ad firm around) has decided to stop using the term metrosexual. Now they hath decreed that "ubersexual," is the new catch phrase. There’s even a BOOK about it now.
Sooo…..in case you men wanted to know if you are Metrosexual or Ubersexual….
To help differentiate between metrosexuals and ubersexuals, JWT provided the following guide:
UBERSEXUAL - passionate about causes and principles; METROSEXUAL - passionate about himself
UBERSEXUAL - grooms his mind; METROSEXUAL - grooms his hair
UBERSEXUAL - men are his best friends; METROSEXUAL - are BFF with women
UBERSEXUAL - sexy, but not self-conscious; METROSEXUAL - narcissistic
UBERSEXUAL - consults art and culture; METROSEXUAL - gets tips from "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" Fab Five
UBERSEXUAL - knows right from wrong; METROSEXUAL - knows difference between toner and exfoliant
I found this further explanation here .
* Both are passionate, but the uber is passionate about causes and principles, while the metro is mostly passionate about himself
* The uber spends more time grooming his mind than his hair
* Both treat and respect women as equals, but the uber considers other men, not women, his best friends
* The uber is more sensual and not at all self-conscious; he doesn't need other people to tell him he's sexy -- nor does he plan his errands around which shop windows offer the best reflection
* The metro gets design tips from the Fab Five; the uber gets them from his travels and interest in art and culture
* The uber knows the difference between right and wrong and will make the right decision regardless of what others around him may think; the metro knows the difference between toner and exfoliant -- and worries that he's using yesterday's brand.
And I found this list that for the most part annoyed me. Ahem.
10. Jon Stewart: He is outspoken without regard to what other people think (as evidenced by his skewering his hosts during this year’s Advertising Week). He is supportive of women and pokes fun at himself in a self-deprecating way.
9. Guy Ritchie: His masculinity is unquestioned even though he's married to one of the world's top music icons. (In fact, gravitating toward strong women tends to be an über trait.)
8. Pierce Brosnan: His James Bond strength was never compromised when we watched him publicly mourn his first wife (and raise her children). He has Remington Steele’s classic elegance and savoir faire.
7. Ewan McGregor: A handsome, fashionable family man, McGregor is versatile enough to go from riding his Harley Davidson around the world to walking the red carpet. He is comfortable in his own sexuality.
6. Barack Obama: At the DNC, he managed to marry sentimental love of family with a new face of patriotism. And he looks sharp in a suit.
We're going to be terrible people and make you click to the jump for the rest of the list. Because if it's one thing we do best it's use other people's marketing to push our own profit points.
5. Arnold Schwarzenegger: He journeyed from body builder to mega movie star to politician, all the while keeping his shoes buffed and hair in place. He has succeeded in every challenge he’s faced, and he has a Kennedy for a wife.
4. Donald Trump: Love him or hate him, Trump is a man who is certain about what he wants and sets out to get it, no holds barred. Women find his power almost as much of a turn-on as his money.
3. Bill Clinton: A born charmer with Southern roots who is not afraid to cry. He is a supremely confident, decisive leader. And he has supremely sexy hands.
2. George Clooney: He appreciates the finer things in life (including his villa on the shores of Lake Como), and he is strongly bonded with and loyal to a cadre of male friends. His timeless image has allowed him to rise from B-sitcoms to box-office hits, some of which he’s directed and/or produced.
1. Bono: He's global, socially aware, confident, and compassionate, and he commands a huge base of followers who are fans of his music—and his humanitarianism. Is it any wonder rumors are swirling about a Nobel Peace Prize?
Does anyone agree with this list?!?!?!? Who picked these people!?!?!??!?!? BILL CLINTON?!?!?!?! Did they really pick BILL CLINTON with a straight face??!?!?!?
Pierce, Ewan, Clooney and Bono, ok.....I get. (Sorta) But the rest of this cockamamie list????
Kiss my recently spanked ASS!
