And for those of you snickering on the manicure, according to the sex expert I saw on HBO's Real Sex last night, a well manicured male scream good lover to the ladies. Makes sense to me.
You go Nomopo! If there is one thing that turns me off--it is nasty fingernails on men. I have told the men folks in my family to always keep clean close trimmed nails and keep those hands as soft as they can....I don't care what kind of work they do! Real "ladies" will appreciate that.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
