    But that's a girl, right?

    Anyway, I don't get it. I never will. I just have to learn to accept it. I'm gonna be like Eastwood's character in Gran Torino. I'm going to hate everyone that passes my house. I'll sit in the front porch, drinking a Sam Adams seasonal beverage, and grumbling about how times have changed.

    I'm looking forward to it.

        My sister hadn't been in an H&M in about a year.

        So one day I ask her for advice on where to buy a nice dressed down shirt. I don't want anything too baggy and of course she knows I don't wear skinny tight either. So she suggests H&M.

        I go there and I had to leave with the quickness. It was basically female clothing all over the store. The men's department must have caught some feelings and did a RuPaul because there were no manly parts left. I couldn't believe it.

        I go back to my sister and I say: where did you take me!? Of course, she's confused because she really didn't know. Then she apologized.

        I feel like I'm caught in the middle here. Are there average sized shirts anymore that are still stylish? I feel like my only options are: 1. dressed up for business wear, 2. baggy dress down shirts, 3. tight dress down shirts.

        How do you go out when those are the only affordable options?

              We have already had a thread on that within the last 3 months or so.

                Thread title should read...

                "What is up with young men wearing skinny jeans" :wink:

                I feel old @ 28 because I find myself saying "I don't understand kids today" everytime I see these skinny jeans; which is quite often, everyday.

                  I just don't see how skinny jeans could feel comfortable. Plus they look stupid as hell.

                    Seems like the only places you can find classic 'age apporopriate' clothing these days are stores that I'd have NEVER purchased things from when I was young...

                    Gap, Target, Sears, JC Penny, Work N Gear, etc...

                    I go with this simple test:

                    "Would one of the Beastie Boys (post '95 or so) be caught wearing something like this...if the answer is 'no', well there ya go...

                    Current day Mike D in skinny's would be tragic...

                    They do look good on the girlz who are doing a loose reinterpretaition of the 80's B Boy look, however...as well as the girl in the OP...

                      It's just another fashion trend that's gone full circle. (and you guys who thought sagging was something unique never really looked at those original toga pics, did ya?)

                        I hate skinny jeans
                        I REALLY hate when people sag skinny jeans. Most ridiculous part of youth fashion

                            Almosr got in a fight arguing about this exact subject in the Barber Shop a few weeks back.

                            If my Barber wouldn't have called me up and said I was next up.......

                              And it was horrible then too.
