Hmm, yeah I'll think about that.

If I can find some "male metaphors" then I'll give it a shot.

EDIT: Actually, probably all I need is to know what goes through a guys head when they meet a girl they like. The stuff that I can actually post on this forum lol.

I think that removing (or changing) some adverbs might help it sound more male. You could also do the same with verbs.

Maybe shorter sentences might make it sound less feminine, and maybe show less feminine feelings and actions, like being lonely or crying. Just some ideas.

Hmm... You could use some loud noises to create a male mood, or desribe the rougher elements of things: scars, anger etc...

Even the setting could help create a male mood, although not as much, by making there lots of people working hard around in tricky conditions.

I think the most important male feature seems to be being tougher than most females, so be careful what emotions you let through.
