A reader sends this along: The Washington Times reports that Metro Man (discussed yesterday in "The Punchy Journal") is out and manly men are in. Excerpt:
The Harris survey was conducted among 1,003 men and 1,128 women 18 or older from across the United States. Among the findings:
Ӣ75 percent of women said their ideal man buys his grooming products at a grocery store or drugstore, not a salon.
Ӣ72 percent of women said their ideal man spends his free time doing home-improvement projects.
Ӣ41 percent of women said their ideal man spends his time watching sports.
Ӣ47 percent of women said their ideal man spends his money on electronics, compared with 9 percent who answered "designer clothes."
Ӣ90 percent of women said they prefer low-maintenance, easygoing guys.
