Jethrosexual: the Anti-Metrosexual
Paul's neologism of the day: jethrosexual, the photographic negative of metrosexual. A friend and I were talking about our mutual distaste for obsessive personal hygiene, being that it gets in the way of more manly things like reading theory, coding APIs, and scratching one's balls. Like the lower middle-class street philosophers we are, we feel a certain kinship with rednecks everywhere, hence the new name. And yes, I'm always this stupid on Fridays.<

Hey Paul,
That's funny. I hear ya!
Though personal hygiene is said to be the number 1 disease prevention practice one can have. Wash your hands after tinkling boys and girls!! ; o )
By the way, is a mullet required to be a true Jethrosexual? And must you have lived at least 5 years in a trailer at some point in your life? And must that trailer have had a rusting lawnmower buried in tall grass somewhere on the property?
Don't forget the chewing tobacco spittle on the front of a T-shirt that hasn't seen white since it left K-mart a few years back.
Would the Jethrosexual be the anti-Wilber?
Alas, the Universe balances itself out!! ; o )
haha, ken the anti-jethro, very funny, especially since he's a southern boy himself....
i don't think you need a mullet, it doesn't necessarily have to equal redneck, just DIRTY. just salamone.
I think that you're on to something here. This could be THE emerging market for 2008.
Then you could have enough money to pay the waterbill--killing your brand idenity. True Salamone style.
Oh lord, I laughed out loud! It's like, Kid Rock vs. Ken Wilber.
What about the schlomosexual?
A gay man who couldn't give a shit about personal hygiene. Reminds me of a quote from Black Books...
"I thought I was gay once. But I couldn't be because of the prohibitive standards of hygiene. And all that dancing"
Not to further a stereotype or anything. Ok I'll stop leaving comments now.
good one tuff ghost--yeah! i think VICE Magazine once ran a feature on gay slobs in Chelsea, fat dudes who couldn't be bothered to tone up and hit the clubs, red bull firmly in hand.
