I guess there's always nail polish.

For adult males suffering from an acute case of revolutionary fervor, the standard treatment is watching sports and yelling at the tv, preferably with beer in hand. The presence of male buddies is highly recommended, but not absolutely necessary. If you hate sports, watch the cheerleaders and make offensive remarks about their anatomy. That works too. Some males who hate sports AND are resistant to the sight of bouncing cheerleaders, channel their revolutionary fervor into transforming ugly ducklings into swans, and bringing horrid 70s-era kitchens into the 21st century. This has the effect of rendering the condition innocuous, and doing something Good for the world, as well.

I say nail polish can, subject to geographical and generational variables, have substantially the same pro- or anti-revolutionary effect on boys as it does on girls. I suggest something in the Chanel Vamp range. But don't waste your money on the Chanel itself, guys. There are many perfectly lovely knock-offs available at the corner drug store, and at much lower price points.

Are you kidding?
As an occasional user of both Chanel and Wet n Wild polishes, I have to grudgingly admit that the Chanel stuff is better.
I thought nail polish was nail polish, but someone brought a couple bottles of the top shelf stuff to a beauty party and all the ladies commented on how leasy to apply and long lasting it was.
