FRIENDS - ROSS'S TAN (Season 10 - Episode 3)

There are many things people would do just to look good, and here you're going to watch what some people do to get that summer tan so many love: Ross is going to get a spray-on tan. Why do you think people need to do it anyway?


What was reason enough for them to laugh was the fact that both Chandler and Ross either did or will make use of beauty treatments to look better. 

Some questions for further discussion:
  1. Do you think that it is wierd when a guy wants to go to a beauty salon and do some treatments to enhance his appearance?
  2. Why isn't it easily accepted that guys can as well make the most of beauty treatments?
  3. Can it be considered prejudice when people don't accept it when a guy wants to have his armpits waxed, or his eyebrows modeled, for example?
  4. How much money does your guy / you (if you're a guy!) spend on beauty?
  5. Which beauty products does he / do you own? Shampoo, soap and deodorant don't count
  6. Which beauty treatments does he / do you do?
  7. Is there anything you would like your husband / boyfriend to do, but he just won't because it's "too girly" and "he is a man"?
  8. Is there anything you would like to do but you're ashamed?
  9. Try to name some things a guy can do when going to a beauty salon. Is this list longer or shorter than a woman's list?
  10. In your opinion, are guys who turn to beauty treatments just showing they are not confident enough?

Thinking about the video now...
  1. Why do you think they react the way they react?
  2. Why are they ashamed?
  3. Why would Chandler like his getting a pedicure to be a secret?
  4. Why does Monica use it as a weapon to get back at him when Chandler spill the beans?
  5. Why didn't Monica want Chandler to tell people she was getting a spray-on tan?

I think most of people have this thought when men take beauty treatments.
I don't see it as a problem and I don't have any prejudice about men who are careful about your beauty.
I use a few products to clean my face and to cumb my hair. Particularly, men don't need so many products as women to have your beauty ok.
In a beauty salon, men can have their hair cut, have their skin cleaned, have their beard done.There are other things, as specific treatments to hair and to skin.
