how bout we mock most men for putting in zero effort beyond covering their bodies and showering occasionally
Well… giving all the shit we give women also to men is also gender equality I guess
What further would you have us do?
I already washed my balls last week.
In seriousness though, I wash every day twice a day and wear clothes and shave my head and trim my beard. Deodorant too cause damn I stink
What else is there?
manscape eyebrows, shave/trim pubic hair, little mascara and guyliner, accessorize with some bracelets, necklace, and rings, maybe a watch if thats your thing, trim and file nails, exfoliate skin, wear clothes that fit well, outfits that feel cohesive, some people really like a pleasant but not overpowering cologne, maybe even get a few piercings
theres a ton of room for individuality in masculine presentation. it doesn't have to be crazy or difficult. pretend you're a craftsman and your appearance is your craft. it can be very simple and straightforward, but a few careful finishing touches go a long way to bringing the whole together.
But muh depression...
