Speaking of gay, being a "metrosexual" is the new gay. You are not this super-sensitive ultra converted "Emo" that saw the light and got fashionable but still kept yourself a sensitive male. You're gay.
It's just more widely acceptable now to be called "metro" than homo. Hey, I don't mind being sensitive...I cry when I have to put my dog down, when a close relative passes, I'm out of beer on a camping trip, I even tear up a bit when the national anthem plays at the super-bowl. Other than that, suck it the hell up and be a man. Just because you can dredge up some crocodile tears to try and score points in getting a girl to spread open her thighs doesn't make you any more acceptable in the heterosexual community. It makes you gay.
"CP"ing started coming around back in like '88. In fact, it was only "popped" for a few seconds by OG mutha fuggin hustlas who took offense to some poor broke ass punk that got in their face.
Instead, big wig fashion gurus took the collar as a fashion statement so that it became a preppy-frat boy movement.
It became socially "cool" to get on that striped Tommy shirt with the white collar popped, wearing those aviator glasses while driving down the main drag in your convertible BMW. (Which, no doubt, your ass got as a gimme from mommy and daddy on your 18th birthday because you didn't get accepted into Stanford.You no money earning scrub ass mo'fo.)
Well, we all thought that this style went by the wayside long ago, but as most fashion trends do, they make a retro comeback.
Now in Scottsdale and most of the Arizona State campus, "CP"ing is the trend to do. Frat boys, Preppies and "metros" all grouped into one lump sum. I know that you preps and fratties hate the homo clan, but guess what...you're in the same fashion group now...which is pretty close to hanging out with your arch-enemies, if not being one...in fact there may be one close to you right now...is he in your frat? No? Then he's probably thinking of your sweet virgin ass.
Seriously though, all you guys, no matter what you are or lifestyle you may live. I don't care about the clothes you wear. Your style, albeit, as personally disturbing and easy to mock as it is, is your choice. It's the attitude along with it that bothers me.
Just because Nelly does it, does it mean you are as cool as him? Or as rich? 99% of the time, no.
Once that collar gets popped, you are king of the world aren't you? Not that I'm saying I'm better than..., well...okay, I am better than you.
Trust me, the collar thing has to end soon. And when it does, after a given time, you lemmings will find another fashion to follow and realize that "popping" that collar was a pretty stupid idea. Until then, keep on CP'in, that way I know who to laugh at in public.
