Read "Vanity, they Name is Metrosexual"
Briefly answer the following questions:
1) How does the author define Metrosexual? How does the author relate the term to a larger argument?
"a straight man who styles his hair using three products...loves clothes...shopping, describes himself as sensitive and romantic."She uses this definition to argue that although it is a trend it's not just benefical it's minorly confusing to the woman gender.
2) What is at stake in the definition of the term? How does the author make this clear?
Defining this term as such allows for the possibility that the meterosexual crowd and those attached to it to be offended, but also the straight woman population is having problems with their gay-dar.
3) Note one other means of persuasion that you found particularly effective in the article. What about the audience does this means rely on.
The author tries to relate the scenario to a television show "The Bold and the Beautiful" but expects the reader to be familiar with the general plot, which I am not.
