retrosexual

retrosexual
a) A man who adopts a traditional masculine style in dress and manners.

Think of him as the anti-metrosexual, the opposite of that guy who emerged in the 1990s in all his pedicured, moussed-up, skinny-jeans glory. That man-boy was searching for his inner girl, it was argued. The retrosexual, however, wants to put the man back into manhood." — Lini S. Kadaba, Philadelphia Inquirer, Apr. 7, 2010

b) One who has not had sex in a very long time

Its been so long Ive become a retrosexual.
