Why is this article an advertising for Mr. Simpson?

The introduction of the term metrosexual is credited with correct references. Is it really necessary to repeat every other paragraph that Mr. Simpson coined it? or describe whatever he intended by it? I think that credit the reference once should be enough. --MexFin (talk) 06:41, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Pre-1994 vanguard

New York Times style writer Guy Trebay pushes the origin point back to sometime in the 1980s which represents the original airing of Miami Vice. The section on Miami_Vice#Fashion goes into some detail. See Moore, Jennifer Grayer (2015). Fashion Fads Through American History: Fitting Clothes Into Context. ABC-CLIO. ISBN 9781610699020.

Re: Narcissism

I've removed the category and moved the material out of the lead and into a criticism section. This idea that metrosexuality is a form of narcissism is simply a reactionary response from "hegemonic masculinities". We should not be encouraging this kind of thing.
