Debbie Schlussel: Girlie Man Nation: Basic Grooming Tips for Men Who Don't Wanna Look Like Chicks


By Debbie Schlussel

And now for the latest, "Men: The New Women" alert . . . .

So, this morning when I opened up the USA Today sports section, this picture, below, was staring at me. I thought it was a story about women's basketball until I read the headline and the caption of the story.

This is B.J. Mullens who plays on the Ohio State men's basketball team. But look at him--specifically his eyebrows. They've been shaped and sculpted into a woman's eyebrows. All the masculinity has been waxed out of them. I mean, the guy looks like a cross-dresser or female impersonator who took the day off.

Yes, I know this guy is seven feet tall and very masculine. But getting his eyebrows done that way just took the wind out of his testosterone sails. He looks like a chick. It's one thing to eliminate the beastly-looking unibrow, but guys, here's a tip: Don't do this (unless you're in between "re-assignment" surgeries).
