    Should men get pedicures?

    We moved to a state which is warm and more men wear sandals and flip flops. I've seen a few guys get pedicures - no color nail polish.  Women take care of their feet especially in summer. Should men do the same?

    It seems a little odd to me........pedicures are not a very manly thing.  Personally, I don't know why a guy would want one!

    I don't think they should should, as in being forced. However, some men enjoy pedicures. My boyfriend is one of them. Always wanting his feet cleaned and moisturized, nails trimmed. It's kind of cute from my point of view.

    no they shouldn't in my opinion. women also wear make up and i don't think men should do that either. i hope we never get to the point where there are thousands of beauty products for us like women have.

    Well, if you have feet like my brother, then yes. His nails are too difficult to cut because of its thickness. Plus, his feet smell.

    Also, getting pedicures isn't only for the sake of beauty. When you wear closed shoes all the time, sometimes you get ingrown nails in your big toe. It does get pretty painful if you don't get it out quickly.

      Thanks for your insight dezalyx. I can understand how male pedicures can be for feet health.

    dashingclaire,

    Yes men should get pedicures. If they realized how great the massage chairs were at the nail salons they'd run there to read the paper, and get massaged all while making their feet look 10 times better.

    Absolutely! If not a pedicure, buy a little foot spa and but some lotion on your feet.

    It should be up the man, if they want it they should be allowed, if they don't they don't.

    We should allow both genders to do what they want, without social stereotyping.
