I was speaking in much broader terms...

As far as nail polish on feet for males....as many have expressed on here...they don't do it for public show...most have expressed they do it for self...to simply satify that urge to be creative...

Nor do most guys who do it, do it to attract a 'mate' or anyone...again the majority of males who do it, have expressed they do it for self, to satisfy their own curious urge...

Listen to the data being shared with you by those who respond...

And the nail polish thing is simply apart of a broader spectrum of creativity in ones own life...

No real intentions of painting my nails or anything. Mostly just to give my wife a choice of colors but on occasion i get a wild hair and go get a mani-pedi and its nice to have some cool colors available if i wanna go that extra step. I think one day i will get my fingernails painted just to see the true colors of those that ive called "friend"
Or maybe you could do something really crazy like...I don't know...marrying someone with a different skin color....oh, hold on...that would be inmoral...

I dont think my wife would like that. Theres also a difference between personal choice and immorality.

I had my nails polished Black since New years, and my wife has yet to even notice.

I would guess so. I've yet to see one who does though, but I dont look at dudes feet in the first place.

If I was single and saw a man who adorned himself a lot I would be turned off. That includes clear nail polish, toenail polish earrings, lots of jewelry. I don't judge but it is not my taste. I do find goatees and baseball caps incredibly sexy.

I'm to a point in my life where I could care the less what a woman likes, dislikes, is turned on by or against...none of it really matters to me anymore....in the end, they still leave you and take all your stuff...

Today I saw such a guy, who probably had a woman who wished that he were rough and tumble type, to satisfy her need to have that contrast...

I looked at this mans hands, as he was filling out paper work...probablly mid 40s rough neck type, his nails on his hands were cracked and falling off...obviously do to years of neglect...of being dumb enough to believe that just because he's a man, he has to let his body go...

And now he's paying a price...and I don't even want to imagine what his feet look like...probably like horse hooves....

I think its very selfish for women to want their men to have rough alligator skin and feet, just so they can contrast their own percieved beauty next to...

Then when the guy gets older, the woman leaves them, and now he's left with a old cracked body that's falling apart...and creates other painful health issues...

I applaud guys for taking care of their bodies, being aware of their bodies, their hands, feet, just like women are...

I know my hands and feet are attached to me, are mine, so why would I delight in waking up every morning looking at ugly, scarred, chappy unkept feet that are attached to my body, just to make a woman happy, who will then turn around and leave cause your feet and hands are so ugly...

At least where I live...woman certaintly do not impress me anymore with their ability to choose a mate...a suitable male...

They always seem to choose males that cheat on them and leave them with a ton of kids...

So obviously somethings flawed in how women choose their mates...

At least in this nation...

Hmmm many men with money get their nails buffed or clear polish on them. But if he's wearing fushia and I am...ah that's odd.

cant see the point of putting polish on your nails if its just going to be clear. I mean why bother? If its for the protection aspect of the polish then sure but if youre getting it done for decoration purposes then by all means get a color. An ACTUAL color.
