The metrosexual went out with the man-scarf last season and the rebirth of the retrosexual is sooooo 2010. So fellas, dust off the blue bonds from the rag bag and next time your walking down the street and see another image conscious "uptight, joyless wowsers" carrying the latest edition of Cosmo and the wonderful ideals that publication portrays women to be- give her a wink and say "G'day gorgeous"
Advertising and the Construction of Violent 466(10)
White Masculinity [Media Selection]

from violent male icons . . . overtly
threatening consumers to buy products to
ads that exploit men's feelings of not
being big, strong, or violent enough. . .

* Calling someone's mobile, waiting for it to go to voicemail and then entering
their four digit pin (0000) is not hacking. Hacking is about circumventing
security, not being presented with them and passing them.

** Calling someone's mobile, waiting for it to go to voicemail and then entering their four digit pin (0000) is not tapping. Tapping is the covert act of real-time

David Miliband is being funded by exactly the same interests as Blair. To pluck just one, David Claydon, a senior figure at the investment bank UBS, has handed him £50,000, as part of a gaggle of bankers who made it possible for him to outspend every other candidate combined. He is backed by all the senior Blairites because, like Dr Who regenerating in a bright white light, he is the same politics with a less lined face.
