Dave Besley's new book, "The Retrosexual Manual: How To Be a Real Man," urges readers to reject such metrosexual concepts as carrying purse-like bags, being flattered by attention from gay men and referring to men's toiletries as "products," The Sun reported Tuesday.

Besley wrote the retrosexual man instead engages in behaviors including rejecting foreplay in favor of having the woman send a text when she's ready for intercourse and avoiding public crying at all costs.

The book says retrosexuals are not allowed to know the definitions of words such as manicure, pedicure, facial and exfoliation. They also must only give women compliments in such a way that denotes a lack of understanding -- for example, Besley suggests men tell their women, "That's a nice badge, brooch-type thing you're wearing."
