Of a mindset that people can get their groove thing on and be perfectly civilized about it. Best typified by the Rat Pack lifestyle: Great suits, martinis and holding the door for women so you can take a peep at those gams.
"That sharkskin suit sure is metrosexual, Frank."
"Retrosexual, daddy-o. Oooh, look at that dame over there!"

This word wouldn't exist if "metro" didn't happen to rhyme with "retro." It's supposed to mean the opposite of a "metrosexual," which makes it another superfluous word since we already have a word for the opposite of a metrosexual called "straight."

A man who adheres to traditional values and natural roles for men and women. He does his own thing based on moral carachter and integrity , and does not bend to pressures of political correctness. He knows how to turn a wrench, does not become squeamish over sweaty labor, and believes a man's work is a reflection of his name. He does not embrace homosexual, feminine or whoremongering proclivities as desireable or even natural. He respects women as the weaker vessel and still holds doors open for his lady or a stranger. He accepts and fully embraces traditional family values of the pre 60,s. His pockets have a wallet, knife, and maybe even a spark plug gap tool on his hey ring. He would rather be fishing, hunting, shooting, reloading ammo, than he would be at the mall. He may have a Confederate Battle Flag and could care less what you think or "how you feel about it". He is an old fashioned razor guy who prefers antique razors , brush and shaving soap and does not shave his body, legs, or chest like a girl. Fact is he knows the "feminine side" is a lie from the pits of hell. He is in fact a man the way God the Creator made man.
As the man in front of us opened the door for his wife you could tell he was a retrosexual. He sure is more manly than the girly man behind him.

Thinking of the girls he had known when young, the old man could still get momentarily horny. But he never had such feelings about women he didn't know and lust after in the past, and had no desire to reconnect with those he did, except in his memories of them; in the bloom of their youth.
He was a true retrosexual.

The definition:
Retrosexual is the opposite word for metrosexual, so it shouldn't apply to women. It refers to the original meaning of the male role, although it's philosophy should be analyzed and embraced by everyone, including women.
The phylosophy:
The appearance of a person is irrelevant, because if we analyze ourselves and everyone else, our physical body is made of skin, blood and bones. If we look at a room full of people through x-ray, we only see a room full of skulls and bones - it means, we are all the same and the physical difference between normally developed people is insignificant. Analyze this deeply and you will agree that the appearance shouldn't be as important as it is to the metrosexuals. I admit being in favour of the retrosexuals in it's understandings about people's appearance.

If David Beckham would've born with a face of another, even a greater football player i.e. Ryan Giggs (I think he's retrosexual, but not an ugly person at all), would he be as popular and well tolerated and admired person?! No, but he's deeper conscious inside the body, would've been the same as it is now. This is why tolerating/not tolerating people based on their looks is foolish and absurd.
The greatest victim of the metrosexual views and narcissism is Michael Jackson. Think about the global danger of these views! Awful. It shouldn't be encouraged in any way. (Sry, if my English isn't correct!)

a male who chooses to dress like he belongs in the '70s and is interested in retro-esque things such as old video games and classic rock.
