Does working out make you more right-wing than Arnold Schwarzenegger?

 The report on an academic study which claims that physical strength, a well-developed upper body and a propensity for fighting are linked to conservative political leanings. The obvious example is the former republican governor of California, although researchers from Griffith University in Australia also cited Sylvester Stallone, Chuck Norris and the rest of the cast of The Expendables . According to the report "Lead researcher Aaron Sell said men were 'designed for fighting' and the tougher they are, the more this influences their behaviour and attitudes." The study notes: "Those actors known for their physical strength and formidability were more likely to support military action. Generally speaking, Hollywood actors are left wing, but the action stars among them were more likely than not to support the Republican position on foreign policy." (Jamie Millar 2012)

GQ MAG APP....

An app that delivers all your style essentials and then some. Love the 'how to dress' and the appreciation for humour. Has a certain spezzatura about it, making it accessible to men who don't really engage with fashion terminology! Well done Mr Porter and GQ. (GQ magazine 2009)

This is a way to re-assure some men who are yet to discover their style and how well they can look. Since most men do not have any idea of what fashion can be in their lives but they admire other men who know the secret to good looks. Check out the link below...

MASCULINITY: men's magazines, body image & fashion

Hegemonic masculinity is a powerful idea that has been usefully employed for about twenty five years in a wide variety of contexts and has now been subject to much critical review. (Hailey sheridon 2007)

Talking about the typical metrosexual, this is a young man with money to spend, living in or within easy reach of a metropolis because that's where all the best shops, clubs, gyms and hairdressers are. He might be officially gay, straight or bisexual, but this is utterly immaterial because he has clearly taken himself as his own love object and pleasure as his sexual preference. Particular professions, such as modelling, waiting tables, media, pop music and, nowadays, sport, seem to attract them but, truth be told, like male vanity products and herpes, they're pretty much everywhere. (Mark Simpson 2002)

Kanye West is showing some loving’ to his favorite brand: Louis Vuitton.  The self-described Louis Vuitton Don has been the talk of the fashion town, as he often sports metrosexual styles that are out of this world.  But Kanye wants to be more than just a style icon.  He, in fact, doesn’t want to be just another celebrity designer.(Ashlee Vensel 2008).
