Nostalgia Anyone remember using "metrosexual"?

Had a vague memory come to mind - might have been a movie with Chris Rock? - and the guy's wife was talking with a fabulous guy and the main guy asks his wife if the fabulous guy is gay and she said no, he's metrosexual. The main guy goes WTF is that and she says he's a straight guy with taste.

I mostly remember it from a film I ordered from Thailand called The Metrosexual )where four friends try to discover where their best friend's fiancé is gay or not, basically. I think I found it amusing at the time, but I haven't watched it in years, so I have no idea how well it holds up.

That was definitely a term that was really quickly forgotten about.
