For the more sensitive man...


So, maybe your man is the stereotypical 'macho' man who fights your attempts to help him explore his more sensitive side...or maybe he has already explored his sensitive side and is completely comfortable with it!

Some (heterosexual) men actually enjoy "girlie" things more than we do! And that's great. I believe a man can still be a manly man even if he participates in so-called feminine activities like getting pedicures, shopping for clothes, baking or watching HGTV. It is the age of the 'metro sexual' male after all so we should be open to that!

We don't need to try to change our men into male versions of ourselves. It is not cool to force these things on him-- but if your man is naturally more sensitive or interested in getting involved with things that we like, we should encourage him to be comfortable with that.

Sweet can definitely be sexy.

Here are some... ahem, more feminine (note I did not say "girlie") things that may appeal to the softer side of your man:
