Aside from the unibrow, why is it if a guy has bushy eyebrows that's considered gross yet at the same time if a guy tries to clean them up that's considered gross as well. It seems you're damed if you do and damed if you don't.

Nothing that can't be fixed with a little shaving.

The eyebrows are one of the most important features to a face, and is often underestimated!
My question is that if the guy knows his eyebrows need grooming, why the heck not groom the damn eyebrows?

It may take a long time for that guy to find someone who has a fetish for catapillars on their forehead.

Perhaps because he thinks that other things are more important?

My husband has bushy eyebrows and I could care less. I get a laugh from imagining him in the mirror with tweezers. He is well-groomed -which means he showers daily, his clothes are clean and pressed, and his nails are clean and cut short. And sometimes I go a little long between waxing my brows, and he doesn't care either. And when I was single I've been approached plenty of times with stray hairs.

If men did regularly groom, then they would be accused of spending too much time in the mirror. People in dating focus on the wrong thing, I swear.

I see too many women these days with overly plucked eyebrows and it is a turn-off. It can also make their face look bigger sometimes. I think I'd rather see them with slightly bushy natural brows instead as long as there is no mono-brow.

I would date somebody as close to my PHYSICAL ideal as possible.

I don't like the unibrow and I'm not going to try to get the guy to "change" it if he wasn't planning to BEFORE meeting me.

Just because I don't like it doesn't mean the next girl won't.

[so the answer is - yes]
But what if the guy doesn't want to and he's happy with it, then what?

I have never looked at a woman's eyebrows directly and judged on how attractive they were due to what they looked like. To me, that's probably one of the most vain things to judge someone on.

Of course, I have yet to see anyone with a unibrow.
