i think a lot of men just need to learn basic hygiene. this is all just a backlash from all the women tired of their men with overgrown hair(on any body part), dirty fingernails, dirty ears, smelly feet, etc. it's not so much in nyc, but all over the country. i think a happy medium is best. get a haircut, trim your nails, trim your pubes, shave, and don't stink. as for style, if you have it, fine, if not ask someone that does.
