Men wearing nail polish isn’t just a growing trend; it’s a statement of self-expression. Here’s why guys with nail polish—and those into in beauty and grooming—should do as they please.In some cases , straight guys paint their nails black – well according to history , nail polish among men has been used to be an indication of status and place in society. So it won’t be unusual now for men to paint their nails black as a way of displaying their status and help them stand out in a crowd.
Some men just want to do it for fun, without an attached meaning. The assumption of an inherent statement in some ways may reinforce the stereotype more, because it assumes that men would never do it just for fun the way girls do.
Specifically men painting their nails. Babylonian warriors were doing it around 3500BC. Back then , warriors adorned their nails with ground minerals as part of a pre-battle ritual designed to intimidate their enemies…“I’m not fighting him, he’s got red nails!” Yeah, that’s the idea. There’s evidence men in ancient Egyptian were also into it, as well as some in ancient China.
So whether for fun or a statement , move over ladies , get used to sharing the nail parlors with some male folk as the the malepolish trend is here to stay .
