Who takes longest to get ready ?
« on: February 10, 2010, 12:29:07 PM »
BRITISH men spend longer getting ready to go out than women, a survey reported today, suggesting the metrosexual male has now become the norm.

The shock study of 3,000 people showed on average men dedicate 83 minutes of each day to their personal grooming, including cleansing, toning and moisturising, shaving, styling hair and choosing clothes.

In contrast, women have their beauty regime down to a fine art, and manage to get hair, clothes and make up done in just 79 minutes each day.

However, the survey, conducted for drug store Superdrug, also found men spent ?302.64 less on grooming products than women over the course of a year.

It takes me ten minutes to sh*t, shave and shower and a further five minutes to dress. I could reduce that time by at least three minutes if SWWLTBO would shut up and not insist on answers to her inane questions whilst I am dressing.

Virtually identical in every way to me that Snoops, especially the bit about the missus not being in control of her gob. noooo:
