Lumbersexual

The metro man is out! Smooth skin, They say, is now no longer in. The sexy man has facial hair, Some stubble, or a beard. His flair Is outdoor rugged, manly charm. He wears tattoos on hairy arm. He loves his plaid, wears flannel shirt And jeans, and sturdy boots with dirt. Instead of going to the gym He gives his apple tree a trim. He loves environment and Earth, Drinks fair trade coffee, finds it worth To make organic, home baked goods, Envisions living in the woods. If he has nothing else to do He goes out for a microbrew, Opens the beer can with his knife And dreams of self-sufficient life. 7/10/2017

I think you're right, Agnes. Metro-man is WAY over-processed.

Well, that was an interesting poem for me :D Can I skip the tats and abs? They hold no attraction for me, the rest sounds great ;)

Yes, I find the outdoor charm more attractive, too - as long as it's not fake.
