Retrosexual

an experience with someone later in life who was known and perhaps dated at a much earlier time of life

"I had not gone out with her since high school, but I found her on the internet and now we are seeing each other again, I guess you could call it a retrosexual experience"

retrosexual

Who says it has to be the opposite of metrosexual? A retrosexual is (in the female case) that woman who eschews the sexual-revolution plank of feminism in favor of more-traditional values. Perhaps even 1950s values (this is not to say she goes as far as the cone-bra). A little burlesque, a little Betty Crocker, the retrosexual woman has new-fangled spunk and old-fashioned values: she does for abstinence and monogamy what Slang Flashcards do for Dover illustrations. She may be, well, Sexless in the City, but only 'cause she chooses to be.

At my cocktail hour the other evening, we were discussing just how "retro" I am — that I have at some times sought to attract men by baking them cookies or knitting them slippers. "You're so RETRO!" someone cried. "Oh no," I replied. "I'm retrosexual."

Retrosexual

Someone who has many stories or references to past sexual encounters, but nobody can remember anything in recent times.

"David is such a retrosexual"
"How so"
"He's telling his high school sex stories again, even though he's been dwelling on them for years. Why doesn't he at least tell us something new"
"Well, they're all he's got"

retrosexual

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!"

retrosexual

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."

You are retrosexual
=
You are straight

retrosexual

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.

retrosexual

One who has reached an age where all sexual desire is reduced to memories.

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.
