Introducing The "Nouveau Bro"

    There's a new type of bro and no, he doesn't wear those Adidas flip-flops.

    Nouveau Bro:

    A new breed of bro, usually found in urban areas, who are more sophisticated than bros of the past. They don't wear shorts in the wintertime, they're not embarrassed to order a diet soda, and they don't draw penises everywhere.

    Nouveau Bros have become some of the most desirable men in popular culture. Among them are Calvin Harris, Ryan Gosling, and Michael B. Jordan.
