First, Second and Third Person Paragraphs

Third person paragraph: 
High degree of formality
Factual/ informative 
 Standard English
High socio-economic class A/B/C1


Teenage Male appearance is a topic, which is heavily overlooked. The metrosexual male is on the rise. In this day and age it is completely accepted for a male to call himself metrosexual and take pride in his appearance. Moreover, in comparison with 10 years ago, a lot more males are spending time, money and energy on looking good. It is apparent that the stereotypical ‘I don’t care” attitude is becoming a thing of the past.

First and Second person paragraph:

Low degree of formality  
Conversational in tone
Low socio-economic class C2/D/E

Guy Liner! Facial Cream!  Fake Tan! Seriously chaps, is this what it has come to?

Things are starting to get out of control, 10 years ago men wouldn’t have even dreamed about taking longer than women to get ready. Seriously if you don’t believe me ask your dad, I’m sure he’ll have a word or two to say about it.  Things do not just stop there though, it gets much worse. Did you know that, today, GENTS are more likely to take items like travel irons, hairdryers and straighteners on holiday than ladies.
