I spend about a tenner on my haircut, good ol number 4, but that includes washing my hair aswell as my hair is usually got gel in it, I also use 'Doop' from time to time and Lynx Africa also I spend money on Niva for Men Face Moistriser.
thats it but the other day I got some free Lynx face cleanser stuff I have yet to tree it has sand in it, looks very strange.

The original post of this thread "are men the new women" seems to imply that women are, by definition, the gender who spend a lot on "beauty products", and that men are now becoming "women" by doing the same.
However, the trend always seems to be that women are increasingly concerned with men who spend time, and money, on improving their looks. Back in the 1980s the style for clothing changed that would improve a man's physique at a substantial cost, and a cost that had to be on display in the form of a brand, nowdays the trend involves "beauty products" instead.
Underlying a woman's attraction to a man is the earning potential, best exemplified by expensive possessions, especially consumable ones, and any product that not only improves appearance, but also requires a substantial outlay for a considerable time, is going to be a winner in her eyes.
Of course, the ongoing result as always, is the more cunning bastards are going to find ways to fool women, buying cheaper products that imitate quality whilst maintaining the impression they are fantastically rich.
Effectively the reverse notion is true, that "women are the new men", as they now consider appearance a more overriding attribute than any other, leaving themselves forever fooled, just like men have been doing with women all these years.
Note that, in evolutionary terms, a man is a modified woman.

Which version of windows have you been using?
Besides, the people who compare men and women to operating systems are the kind of people whose only contact with women is usually
a) a cheap whore, but they got too excited and shot before even getting it out,
b) that time they saw their mum/sister/gran getting out of the shower and beat one off over it (hey it can't be that wrong surely!? they are women after all. At least I'... they aren't gay) or
c) a shovel, a darkened cellar and lots of air fresheners for the next month.

Loreal for men range is awesome.
I have Aqva too, it's very fresh and citrusy; definitely a hit with the ladies. I also have Bvlgari Black (unisex) and Bvlgari Notte - they're both much more musky for different occasions, worth a lookin.
Wouldn't wear anything else.
