The phenomenon of the ultra-groomed metrosexual man, such as David Beckham, 30, is over.

Now men have to be ubersexual — more macho but still in touch with their feminine side, like Jamie Oliver, 30.

Ubersexual comes from the German word for "above" — meaning such fellas are expected to be above just being merely sexy and need to be a complete gentleman to boot!

Men are trying to be metrosexual, ubersexual, gay vague — where the lines are blurred and they are trying to adapt. At the office, men are adopting a lot of feminine traits. When I started working in the '70s, women couldn't talk about babies, shopping, and now men talk about babies and shopping at the office all the time.

The whole concept of maleness — including dressing, grooming and communication skills — needs a makeover.

Enter the latest buzzword: the Ubersexual and the Age of M-ness.

The descriptor 'uber' was chosen because it means the best, the greatest. Ubersexuals are the most attractive (not just physically), most dynamic, and most compelling men of their generations. They are confident, masculine, stylish, and committed to uncompromising quality in all areas of life.
