Men we've been scammed, go to the store and look at the completely bland men's clothing options and then go to the women's section and look at all the fun they have with all the different colors and styles, it's really a tragedy.

Dont get me started on drinks! :)

Bleh. All those colorful drinks are so loaded with sugars. They look like fun, but get ready for a gnarly hangover. Stick with gin and sodas!

Gin and soda is pretty gay though..... IDK

I'll take the girly drinks and keep wearing my black shirts, thanks

Okay but consider this black leather jacket to go with, or some accessories so you don't get mistaken for a tech bro. Maybe a mixed fabric panel to show that region you've been working out? Vest or unbuttonable portion?

Or pants of some sort to go with it? Maybe?

I'm not straight, I dont even like you people, but for fuck's sake learn to dress yourselves so I dont need to console my (often hot) straight friends or hear their absolutely heartbreaking 'he used conditioner and owns two pairs of jeans in different styles!' Exclamations of joy.

No thanks, I'll keep buying bulk black t-shirts and optionally MAYBE wear a hoodie and switch from shorts to jeans when it's cold out.

You are why straight girls are all tragic figures.

Cost efficient, though.

I'm hoping whoever I one day end up with, actually likes my personality not my things or style. To that end, I also now drive an old beater.

But the clothes are more about efficiency, yes. I have 20 pairs of the same socks too so I don't have to look for pairs.

Style is a display and telegraphing of your personality.¹

Also, unless you're ace, you probably want her to think you're hot. You know how you like when a lady knows how to clothes good and dresses up and looks really fucking hot?

She wants something roughly equivalent, but has given up and dismissed it as fantasy.

If you wear something very fancy, it doesn't just say 'I am fancy' it says 'this is what I think is fancy, and I'm confident enough to wear it around and take the risk'.

Like, you wouldn't expect the same behavior and relationship from punk leather jacket guy, lumberjack, bard, thinks-hes-a-wizard, business-devil, and the guy wearing a silk button down hentai print shirt with a first-Doctor-scarf aviator goggles mirror shined shoes but fully donald-ducking it. Would you?

Oh yeah, what the hell, who doesn't like delicious fruit drinks that get you super wasted? (Besides sober people of course)

I'm worried I'd become a Girl Drink Drunk
