It's long been thought that the outbreak of metrosexuality, you know, men using face creams, making sure their clothes fit, all those decidedly silly things, were confined to the great cities of Blue America.
Sadly, this turns out not to be the case:
Urban Chinese men spend 8.6 minutes a day gazing at themselves in the mirror and shell out 80 yuan ($10) a month on beauty products, Xinhua news agency reported on Tuesday, citing a survey.
Men in Beijing and the financial center of Shanghai were neck-and-neck on whose residents were most vain.
Those in the capital spent the most money on cosmetics -- an average of 119 yuan a month -- but those in Shanghai looked in the mirror the longest -- about 17 minutes a day.
I have a feeling that it might be neccessary to do something about this. Can the world's mines that supply black polo necks survive China adopting them too?
