Even if you claim you’re not homophobic, saying it’s not okay for a man to wear nail polish is furthering gender stereotypes which is still bad. Mindsets that you, Stubby and others on this post hold on to are found in people who think that women should stay home and be housewives. Furthering gender stereotypes works against the progression of man kind. That’s not me being politically correct that is me telling you that it’s okay for different groups of people to adopt ideals that are not generally considered “normal”. That’s a mindset that ought to be applauded because if it wasn’t for that none of you close minded women would have ever been given the chance to go to school and learn how to write such ignorant things.

“Passive aggressive homophobe much?” Wow… how completely judgmental of you. I’m with stubby. I prefer a man who doesn’t feel compelled to borrow my nail polish, especially if he’s attempting to coordinate with an outfit. That doesn’t mean I’m scared of gay people. Grow up and stop letting the politically correct crowd dictate how you think.

Plus, his nails are a mess. Even Stevie Wonder could tell they look fugly.

Ok, I just saw this! I have loved (obsessed over) J Mac for 20 yrs! I actually saw him shortly after he did this to his nails. My NKOTB dreams came true and I was able to spend a good 10 mins with Joe. I can tell you first hand, he is more gorgeous in person AND he isn’t one to maintain a mani. I don’t have a problem with the painting per se, but Joe, they have this stuff called nail polish remover. It was awful. Black and blue half chipped off nail polish. I still love him to pieces but I gotta draw the line somewhere. Next time, maybe he’ll use a good base coat.

I think men should be allowed to wear any nail polish or makeup if they want to. I think that the dark colors look hot but bright colors are fun too. I wouldn't mind at all if my bf wanted a pedicure. Occasionally he will say that a certain polish is "a fun color" or give me suggestions for nail art. He doesn't paint his own nails though but I could probably talk him into it for Halloween. I think guyliner and even eyeshadow looks good on a lot of guys. I like the grey and smokey shadows on guys. I kind of like "feminine" traits in men anyway and I envy my bf's lashes! Males in nature are generally more beautiful (think peacocks). Many activities thought to be girly were actually invented by men. Such as knitting (to make fishing nets). As far as makeup goes, Egyptians wore winged liner and lipstick both men and women. I think many men, it couldn't hurt them to groom their brows either. A groomed person is beautiful and sexy whether male or female. It wouldn't bother me if I had a son that wanted to play with nail polish and makeup. It is creative and I would ENCOURAGE creativity in my children if I had them. I loved Euni's comment btw

Men don't need to be limited to Blue, Brown, Gray, and Black drab colors. In nature the male animal is the colorful one and the female is rather drab. There is no reason that men can't just wear women's nail polish including red and pink. I only wear bright red (OPI Vodka and Caviar) on my toes and get a lot of compliments from women. Men need to just get over their insecurities and wear women's nail polish. After all, women wear men's products all of the time and they don't think anything of it. There are even articles in women's fashion mags that describe how to incorporate items from male fashion into their look.

I don't like the look. And I'm a guy who occassionally has painted toes! But to each his/her own. Some like it, some don't.

As a side note, I have to wonder if the matte/satin trend is being built to see if any men catch on. There aren't many pinks or creams coming out, but more of the darker, man-acceptable colors like grey, black, dark green, purple, blue.

I love it! Maybe the application wasn't flawless, but who am I to judge seeing girls with far messier nails every day.
The important thing here is that it's OK for men to wear polish, it's even great. It's important to make the girly things gender neutral, that way there won't be a degrading view on girly stuff and [insert long trail of thought] in the end, women will have equal pay and won't have to work double (job AND house/family).
Go Joey, it's hot and a statement!
