Is it ok for a man to have a french pedicure?

I have a french pedicure. Im a happily married male and my wife will not be surprised one day to find out I'm gay. She is accepting of it, but she has her limits of acceptance. My family doesn't know or my clients as well. I know they can't yet accept this sort of thing. I think men look much better with them as do women. Its just taking care of feet and men can have some BAD feet. Besides all the homophobic uneducated insecure people that don't like this... - I would like an honest opinion from someone not in the predescribed group. I ask again, Is it ok for a man to have a french pedicure?Is it ok for a man to have a french pedicure?
ya! Why not?


Your right, men should take care of their feet, and so what if they look NICE. better than someother peoples feet.


It isn't a big deal, and i honostly think it shouldn't be a sign of gayness.Is it ok for a man to have a french pedicure?
It is OK but it is a bit odd. I may be a bit ignorant of it as my feet require almost no maintenance. It seems to me that it is mostly something to make your feet look better. Who looks at feet?
Nothing wrong with that at all- after all, they're your feet! And there's certainly nothing wrong with taking care of yourself- though polish on your toenails if you're a guy is certainly out of the norm. No worries though, in my opinion!
A French Pedicure? Does it have to be French?





My horseshoe'r does mine and he is not french at ALL!





Another way to have your toenails cut are the Chinese Bench Grinder.





Dont need to go to Collage Dude. Taking care of yourself is what you do best, I bet. For me helping others is a much better time. Hope ya enjoy our cute nails.





How about a German with hedge clippers, but that could be a little scary!





Look man just get some clippers and do it yourself. You don't need all the other stuff.
I would say no. Even if you were openly gay, I would say no.
no to me its not okay.
Its not anyones place to say if its OK or not. I think its a bit weird but if you like it, than thats your thing.





im not sure if you just said you were gay..? im totally cool with that...but your wifes OK with you being gay? i might have read that wrong..idk
no its not,it is like if u want to tell every one that u r gay.i think it is awful.
when you say french pedicure, do you mean where they paint the tips white? or just a normal pedicure where they scrub your feet, file your nails and give your feet a massage?


Personally, I think that if it makes you happy then go for it. I dont think its a question of right or wrong. I know many men who get manicures/pedicures (minus the polish). I agree that feet are often ignored by many men (and therefore look dirty and unkempt). It makes you feel better when you do simple things for yourself (or atleast thats how I feel).


The issue with your wife is another story all together. That part sounds like it needs counseling.
They're your toes.


I have to admit, if my husband came home with one i might be a little weirded out, but seriously, do your thing. like the saying goes ';the people who matter don't care, and the people who care don't matter.';


I don't feel that you (or anyone) should need to seek approval from anyone but yourself. If you like it and you're happy with it, then that is what counts.

  • Men, under what circumstances would you consider getting regular pedicures? Poll is for anyone I need input?

    Okay, my husband thinks pedicures are too ';feminine.'; I was talking with one of my sisters, and we were thinking that if we turned it to a ';guys night out'; sort of thing, we could maybe convince them.





    I would pay for the pedicure myself and anything else that he wants to go along with it. Any input is welcome.Men, under what circumstances would you consider getting regular pedicures? Poll is for anyone I need input?
    2fine, I am am manly man, all man, a real man's man.


    Pedicures may be a bit feminine, but they feel freakin great!


    I have absolutely no problem with an attractive female stranger rubbing lotion on my feet and grinding down my callouses. Tell them that they're allowed to drink beer while they're getting it done. Beer and attractive strangers should work. That's how my wife tricked me in to getting one.Men, under what circumstances would you consider getting regular pedicures? Poll is for anyone I need input?
    I get mine from a podiatrist but I do feel a bit awkward about it but I have trouble with my feet so I've gotta get them done . I wouldn't consider in a zillion years getting a pedicure unless they did house calls .
    I feel that - If his feet are chaffing and/or cutting you at night then yes, he needs a pedicure. As long as he is not getting his nails polished he is not feminine. I wouldn't mind if my boyfriend got a manicure or pedicure, it is a lot better than having unattractive hands and feet.
    Why on earth would you want to ';convince:'; anyone to do something they simply don't want to do? Maybe he could ';convince'; you NOT to have regular pedicures. Or, does that not sound fair?
    I cant think of any.
    I do get manicurse form time to time. I will never get a pedicure, not for any amount of money.
    lol, my husbands feet are jacked and he refuses to get pedicures because they are ';feminine.'; I told him it was just a way to keep his body healthy, I told him so many guys get it done that are straight. He doesn't buy any of it, and still refuses. He will barely let me see his feet, let alone a stranger.
    well it depends. most guys think pedicures as getting like french tips and all that stuff, but i can be like just a regular alright for guys... i'd get one but only if it was like with my gf and one my chick friends i'd feel weird with my guy friends
    if i dednt haftu pay too much for it haha 鈾?nice nails shudnt threaten a mans masculinity if hes secure in it!!
    Why??

    Pedicure and manicure for men?

    There is nothing wrong with a man wanting to keep up his appearance. I see more and more men going to the salon to get them done everyday.~Pedicure and manicure for men?
    What about it? I know plenty of guys that get them and insist my boyfriend keep his nails neat and trim.





    Uh, guys, women don't want to date slovenly pigs. It's not the end of the world to practice personal hygiene. By the way, hang nails and sharp edges on your nails HURT.Pedicure and manicure for men?
    nothing wrong with keeping ur hands n feet clean
    If one of my friends got these, I would laugh them out of the building.
    F***ing gay

    Pedicure an manacure for men?

    what do you think of a man getting his hands or feet done?


    woud you feel comfterbull if he was sitting nex to you getting hid feet done too mosy spys are 98% woman


    i work contruction im in boots allday an my hands get dry


    tell me what you thinkPedicure an manacure for men?
    hell yeah! There's nothing more sexy than a guy who takes care of himself. I try to get my man to get a pedicure or manicure with me all the time! But i've only got him to go twice. But there's nothing wrong with taking care of yourself. Go for it if you need it. They aren't just for women.Pedicure an manacure for men?
    go for it!!! Show's you care about your body and what you look like. If you're in boots all day the pedi will be awesome... I'm in heels all day adn LOVE it.
    i think its cute that a guy will do something more feminine for once lets us know
    There is nothing wrong with pampering yourself and keeping your body parts up to date clean!





    My BF does it and I think its fun when he joins me!
    Honestly i dont think nothing is wrong wit it but u shouldnt do it all of the time
    A man who thinks enough of himself to have a manicure/pedicure is OK in my book. My husband has me do his nails once a week, and he loves it. He says it's really relaxing and calming for him, plus it makes his hands super-smoothe for my massages.
    My wife is a nailtech and she has almost as many male clients for pedicures as she does females. But she has more female clients for manicures.
    well i am a guy and have a manicure on 2 seprate occasions and wouldnt mind a pedicure.





    i am more then willing to give both of them a try...also im not gay im married with my awesome baby boy





    Broc
    I think a man is entitled to a mani/pedi just like a woman is. What woman wouldn't love a partner who was well-groomed? I think it would take a lot of confidence for a man to go to a salon and do the mani/pedi thing, but it would be sexy as heck to me!!
    yes u can there is nothing wrong
    I think its ok, but if it were me I would rather someone come to my house and do it there......

    Question for the straight men. Do you get pedicures? If yes, how often.?

    I know some straight men who have gotten pedicures... not often enough though!Question for the straight men. Do you get pedicures? If yes, how often.?
    I take my man to get them, he is very much straight. Maintenance is a matter of cleanliness and grooming, not about sexuality. Go ahead and get that pedicure!!Question for the straight men. Do you get pedicures? If yes, how often.?
    yes u can get pedicures


    the answer for how often is once a month
    once a month
    my husband gets them every once in a while about once a month or two when ever he remembers really just because he thinks he has ugly feet lol. but there nothing wrong with it i know a few guys that are strait and get manicure also.

    Are pedicure and manicure also for men ?

    Don't you think that man should take care of hands and feet too ?





    Thanks !!!Are pedicure and manicure also for men ?
    Absolutely! Does your boyfriend agree?Are pedicure and manicure also for men ?
    I think that everyone has to right to take care of their own hands and feet to the extent they feel comfortable. Some women go all out there and get really long fake nails and others prefer natural, shorter, clipped and clean nails. If you want to get manicures of pedicures it's fine too. Though people might assume that you are gay if you make them REALLY nice looking (stereotype, I know) I'm sure most women will find it attractive that you like to take care of yourself. Just go for clean hands and feet and clipped nails. However just so you know some women are freaked out by guys that seem ';high maintenance'; (not saying you are), especially if they themselves aren't.





    But anyway, have fun!
    maybe if your a politician, public speaker, celeb, or hand model or if you like having that go for it!!
    absolutely, it's just good hygiene but unfortunately most guys I know won't do it
    for metro or gay men
    yeah you could get one. i've seen men in nail salons before. but make sure you just get a clear coat!
    yeah guys do it to
    yeah sometimes when i get my nails done there be guys getting their nails and toes done i think is cute

    Best color for men's pedicure?

    I am straight and married. I like color in my toenail and I would like to know about your opinion on the best color for men (my skin color is tanned).Best color for men's pedicure?
    I would suggest a beige or nude color, this would give you shine and even out any discolorations you may have on your toes. Also with a tan it would stand out enough.





    IMHO anything else would call too much attention to your feet and if your married and straight I don't think you want to send out the message that your not.Best color for men's pedicure?
    Go with a natural nail color. Otherwise people are going to think you are gay.
    For a straight male, I would choose a natural, very unobtrusive color or clear. And by the way, I commend you for caring about your feet. Many men refuse to out of ridiculous stereotypes.
    You are gay and single. Men do not color their toes. How about a flaming red?
    hot pink. only a man who is in touch with his feminine side is truly heterosexual and comfortable with his sexuality :)
    Clear unless you are u know
    light pink
    LOL! I never knew guys pedicured..





    Ok since you are tan, go for light or dark brown. Or maybe black or blue if you want to go further.
    i like black, dont ever get green b/c it looks gross





    lol
