As you say, I think you need to concentrate on the wives/girlfriends/presents market. Either that or some clever gimmick that overcomes attitudes like mine, which I reckon accounts for a lot more than 40% of men.

Afraid i`m with you 100%,although on the radio the other day,they were talking about men getting their eyebrows Threaded,is that plucked?
What you need is a number like that male model,who played part time for Wales,Gavin whats his name/Mr Charlotte Church.

Its surprising how many men do use these products,just not dinosaures like us.

Henson, but I only know cos he lived up the road from me and used to get trollied in Cowbridge.

I feel the need to point out to you that sandpaper hands are COMPLETELY NOT ACCEPTABLE.

Do you live on your own?

Yes - which proves the point that left to their own devices a lot of men wouldn't use skin care products (or shave or do regular housework )

However I might consider moisturising for Charlotte Church

I've never really understood the moisturising thing. For doctors and massage therapists perhaps, but not for working type blokes.

At a company medical in the chemical waste plant where I seem to spend too much of my time - I was told that my hands looked "a bit battered" and that perhaps I should think about getting some moisturiser. I pointed out that if I had girlie soft hands, then as a chimney sweep/woodfuel supplier I'd probably spend my whole life with them covered in blisters - a point she hadn't considered!

To my way of thinking, rough/tough skin is your body responding to what you're doing in the most appropriate way.

Interestingly, the blokes in the workwear catalogues who are pretending to be working type blokes, ALL look like they spend hours every day "male grooming"! I personally don't have the time or the slightest interest!

I think cosmetics that smell of bunny are likely to be more of a niche market than is likely to be of use to Nell

Domestic, wild or comercial hand made snuggly bunny. To be honest I'm not certain how any of them smell. I've not sniffed a bunny in quite some time.

care is needed when sniffing bunnies...........for many reasons

I'd go for "domestic", possibly with a vague talc-based note to it

I can provide a bunny to sniff if you like - a sweet little thing. Only trouble is "she" has grown testicles....

Nonsense. All men manage this. Only a few women do.

Wait, are we talking about sniffing small mammals or growing testicles now?
