Is this a spornosexual?

Hear ye! Hear ye! The age of the metrosexual has ended. Its been decreed the land over by the pink-polo-shirt-wearing king himself.

Well, look, it’s been decreed by… one guy; London’s Daily Telegraph columnist Mark Simpson.

But, Simpson is the bloke who coined the term ‘metrosexual’ 20 years ago. So, perhaps we should be paying attention.

Simpson has written an article in which he says that the metrosexual man has metamorphosed into a different beast: the spornosexual.

A pornographic fusion of sportiness and metrosexuality, the spornosexual is a fit, bulky and ridiculously good looking man. Think David Beckham, the Burgess brothers, or any of the spray tanned blokes on The Only Way is Essex, or Geordie Shore (c’mon, don’t pretend you haven’t watched them).

Simpson describes the new modern man:

Here are some prominent spornosexuals we have scientifically classified. With science. And definitely not any sort of late afternoon office-wide ogling:

Chris Judd, AFL player and Rebecca Judd's husband.

David Beckham.

Tim Robards, aka The Bachelor.

The Geordie Shore boys.

The Jersey Shore boys.

Peter Andre, Jordan's ex-husband.

Thom Evans, rugby player-turned-model.

Buddy Franklin.

NRL Player Josh Dugan.

So, the spornosexual? Think they’re actually a trend? Know any?
