    I've come across two or three young men wearing nail varnish - black, red or pink - and I'm wondering if it's a new craze?

    Has anyone else ?

    I’ve seen blue and black nail polish sported by gay celebrities, but haven’t noticed ordinary people wearing it.

    Are you considering changing your mani-pedi routine, Splinter ?

    Never see anything like that here where men are men. However, now that you've mentioned it I'll keep my mascara'd eyes open.

    This is a screenshot from Instagram of the young man who runs a quality food shop in La Lucila. They make great empanadas but I can't really bring myself to ask him why he wears nail varnish.

    You’re right. Probably best not to ask.

    20 years ago i had a MALE student in an american univtrsity which had nail varnish color red.

    As no one was aurprised I said nothing, but even now i do not think that this is a manly attitude. no doubt i still am a dinosaur. I ask myself if this is now popular in the uk or the USA..

    DO NOT DO THIS, i suspect that I will have another disappointing experience about the country of you, that I until now admire.
