Light grooming is fine. It's kind of sexy. It's the overkill that's gross ... <B>Nerd Girl</B>: Oh, it will come to Mississippi eventually. Remember ... I'm from Illinois; I know how it works. The trends start on the coasts and they make their way into the middle of the country over time. I think the kids in rural Illinois are still wearing hypercolor T-shirts. <B>Mitch</B>: Yeah, I had a kick-ass 4th of July!! And, yes, I've been watching all of the games too. But, I decided to write about the eyebrow thing instead because it's been on my mind ever since I mentioned Cristiano Ronaldo's brows a couple of days ago. <B>MamaChristy</B>: You are totally right!!! Overplucked brows don't look good on *anyone*. <B>Howard</B>: Okay, in *that* picture, his brows don't look as bad as others. <B>E</B>: If it's not there, it's coming soon. <B>kypris</B>: "The read-and-run". I love it!!! I'm gonna use that phrase sometime. :) <B>Kyla</B>: Yeah, I was really sad when England lost, too. But, in any case, it's good that Portugal is out too. And, what was up with them sending their GOALIE down to the other side of the field to play at the last minute. I guess I understand the strategy (1 man up, additional player), but that was just ODD. I was like, "who the hell is the guy in blue?" For a moment, I thought a crazed fan had joined the field ... Oh, yeah, and ... as long as you don't overdo it with your boy’s brows, it's okay. channel: Me too!!

goldennib: Yeah, I don’t know why guys do it.

AWE: Okay, in the questions of “hot or not” you fall into the “hot” category. Light grooming is fine. It’s kind of sexy. It’s the overkill that’s gross …

Everyone here's so depressed about it (me included) that I don't think I could have taken it... I would have hit that back button quickly. Nice use of the word "über", by the way. As a self-proclaimed Germanophile, it's just my duty to say that. Um, what was I supposed to respond to? Oh, yes, plucked eyebrows of the masculine persuasion. I'm definitely, definitely against that. But is it okay if I occasionally pluck my boyfriend's eyebrows? It's better than letting him do it himself and I SWEAR I don't ever overdo it. Because that would be, like, gross. Thanks for not commenting about the game.

Very quickly. :) Being the Germanophile that I am, I have to say I quite liked your use of the word "über". Germans don't use it like that, but I love how it fits into the English language quite nicely. What was this post about? Oh, right, plucked eyebrows of the masculine persuasion. I'm definitely, definitely against that. Is it okay, though, when I occasionally pluck my boyfriend's eyebrows? I SWEAR I don't overdo it, ever. Because that is NOT hot.

About the overplucked-ness... ew! I understand completely if a guy has eyebrows that are out of control and he grooms them so they're more normal-looking, but any further than that and I'd say definitely no. Thankfully I haven't really seen much of this where I live. Or maybe I don't pay enough attention. However, as mamachristy said, anyone can have overly plucked eyebrows, not just guys! I think the natural (not wild, necessarily! :P) look is best. Hi Stolie,

Here I was, ready for a recap of the soccer game, an idea of how great your long weekend and July 4th was, a post on how hot some dude was at the soccer game... And you come up with a post on men with overly plucked / waxed eyebrows! Too funny - you made my morning. You crack me up Stolie!
