Posted: 10/12/05 at 8:56pmDoesn't do it for me. Jesse Metcalf's brows disturb me a little. The rest of him-FINE! Anyone out there who love men with plucked within an inch of their lives brows?

Scott Nevins plucks his eyebrows? I never noticed that. There is nothing wrong with Jesse Metcalf. Well, I haven't seen him lately, but I can't imagine anything being wrong with that face!

Posted: 10/12/05 at 9:47pmGroomed eyebrows is jusitifiable, but the guys with the scuplted pointing waxed brows just look hilarious. I keep thinking of the episode of Friends when Joey is stuck with one sculpted brown. Now that men are sculpting their pubes and brows, shaving their body hair, and makeup for men can be found in department stores, what is next? Pantyhose? French tips? Why are men trying to look more like women?

I thought of that Friends episode too.
I don't mind if eyebrows are plucked, I don't want it super neat but a little maintainence is fine.

Posted: 10/12/05 at 11:17pmI think some men SHOULD and NEED to clean up a little bit - giant bushes are unacceptable - but when you start looking for a Gotti child, it's time to STOP. It's nasty.

Unless you have catepillars on your eyebrows or a unibrow, I don' see why it matters. I wouldn't go doing anyhting to my eyebrows, cuz they aren't crazy or anything.
There is the one girl who is a year or 2 younger than me back at my highschool and wow... she was like the dad from american pie! I forget him name, but she had HUGE eyebrows.
She was pretty too! Her sister was really pretty also (year older than me) and never had any clue why she plucked her eyebrows and her lil sister didn't. Seriously, it looked so bad... I mean everyone is used to it, so not a huge deal. But why!?!?!
This is to girls in here...
Why the hell wouldn't she do anything about that? I just don't get it, even girls who hardly need anything still get them neatened a bit.

Eugene Levy has FANTASTIC eyebrows. His eyebrows alone in A Might Wind should have given him an Oscar nomination for his work in that film.
But yes, in most cases, unibrows are just not attractive

Eugene Levy's eyebrows are sexy. And I'm straight!
#10re: Men with overly plucked eyebrows.
Posted: 10/13/05 at 12:25amI like them neat, but not neater than mine. If he's asking me for my waxer's card....well, that's enough.

Posted: 10/13/05 at 12:26amI don't think it's about trying to look like women - I think it's just more acceptable now for men to care about how they look and do the "preventative" work that women have always done.

Cleaning up and grooming are good things, but stop before you look like you're permanently surprised.
Jesse Metcalf's eyebrows are def. overdone- the shape doesn't really quite gel with his face.
Scott Nevins def. overplucks, too.

FYI, people should remember that there have been times in the past where the men dressed and groomed much more flamboyantly than women: wearing purses, gaudy jewelry, powdering their faces (And wearing makeup) and whatnot.
And the wheel of time turns and we're back where we started...

"I think it's just more acceptable now for men to care about how they look and do the 'preventative' work that women have always done."
There's nothing "preventative" about waxed eyebrows or Brazilians on men. It goes beyond maintenance into just plain freaky-looking. Many men looked fine and sexy WAY before it got to this stage of obsession (there is not one attractive feature of the Gotti boys). I think guys do it because they falsely believe it attains them a certain level of status. Hopefully, it's just another trend that will eventually go away. Like low-rise jeans or trucker hats. Or the 70s in general.

Posted: 10/13/05 at 2:40pmI can understand trimming, which I do, but making your eyebrows look like Jean Harlow is just not very ..well..macho! or even cool!

Posted: 10/13/05 at 2:49pmI mean, there should be two, but let's keep out of Dietrich territory, okay? And I see alot of str8 guys who do it for some reason unknown to me.

My theory is :
If you are gonna do your eyebrows like Mary Pickford then go all the way and do your hair too! All those ringlets!

Posted: 10/13/05 at 4:24pmI think it's because the shape of them shows that they have the potential to take over half of his face if left unattended. I agree-grooming is necessary, but keep it subtle. Unless you DO want to look like Mary Pickford.

Dollypop- Mr. Nevins has nice eyebrows because his are done the right way!

Posted: 10/13/05 at 5:10pmOh jeez..I gotta go with Dollypop on Scott Nevins' brows...what's left of them anyway...cute, but come on...but he's in that therapy crowd, so he's by no means the worst!
