Clothing advice - what style do you call this?
2005-04-16, 12:30 PM #1
Hey fellas

I'm looking for some websites that ship cool shirts, sweaters, etc.... dress for less is pretty good, but I'm looking for more. Some examples of my definition of 'cool' below. Is there a common denominator (style) for these kinds of clothes? I think they're the pimpest things I've ever seen.

I kinda like 'em, 'specially the bottom one. No idea if it fits in a category though.

I'd only consider wearing the 1st and 3rd, I could be bribed to wear the 4th.

I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Eh, looks too tight for a straight mans shirt.
2005-04-16, 1:25 PM #7
Pretty neat, but I hope that you are as fit as those guys. A big belly just won't work with those tight shirts.
Very funny Scotty. Now beam down my clothes.

Unless that straight man is like me, and and therefore incapable of finding a shirt that looks remotely tight on him.

I like the third and fourth. The first is an interesting idea, but something about the pattern just doesn't work.

I like them all, except #3, which I think is the ugliest thing I've ever seen.

If I had to give them a lable, I would probably say alternative... cause that's the kind of stuff you say alternative musicians wear. First thing that comes to mind when I see those is a bass player in a band like Matchbox 20 or something. :p
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

I think it's the way they're being worn that makes them look especially gay. Especially in the third pic. All balanced on one leg, the way a female model would wear something.

Are you outside of the USA? If not, you'll probably get strange looks wearing something like that. I get strange looks alot myself, so feel free to join the club. I think they look like the clothes of a 10-12 year old, but maybe you're young?
2005-04-16, 5:43 PM #18
eh, I think they rock.. I dress pretty close to that usually (though I'm usually in short sleeves, because my arms are too long, so nothing else fits)

Well, ...


I am outside the USA... I'm in some sort of club scene, and I think they'd look cool there. I'm just ****ing tired of wearing the same plain sweater-shirt combos.

Damn, it's so hard to find cool clothes nowadays. I'm off to get my nails done now (what the hell is metrosexual anyway? )

I CALL IT DAM SEXY, I MUST GET SOME!!!!

Tight is considered "gay" by all straight overly butch homophobes.
Code:
if(getThingFlags(source) & 0x8){
  do her}
elseif(getThingFlags(source) & 0x4){
  do other babe}
else{
  do a dude}

That's good though, because gay guys get the most chicks.

I guarantee you, if you walked into a regular american high school, or even college, it's the first thing a lot of people would think, and no, not "straight overly butch homophobes".

yeah, but... they all suck, so no worries.

If you've got the body and want girls to know it, I guess it couldn't hurt, but I still prefer to go with a slightly looser one to show it without looking like I'm showing it.

In all the years I've worked out, disturbingly only guys have commented on it, so I've begun to doubt that girls really care that much.

yeah i guess they aint looking at our chest, but the area further south.

That was the first thing I thought when I saw those shirts.

For some of us, being straight doesn't attract the ladies. That's why metrosexualism was born.
2005-04-16, 10:56 PM #31
Some guys figure that if they wore clothing and things like this, women would be more attracted to them. Really, women are attracted to the clothing and want to wear them so badly, that they will go out with the person who is wearing them at the time. So says the laws of metrosexuality section nineteen, part C.
Who made you God to say "I'll take your life from you"?

No entry found for metrosexual.:confused:

Look, if someone's subtly questioning my sexuality, you can stop doing that right now. I just want cool clothes and websites that sell them.

Which is why I hate being called a metrosexual.

The word literaly means bus ****er or train ****er...
2005-04-17, 3:49 AM #36
In the hemisphere that matters, 'metro' is short for "metropolis".

Metro- being a modern medical term for the uterus (or something similar), which is derived from the ancient Latin mater (the root for the word 'matron', among others).
-polis being indirectly derived from the Greek word for 'city'.

Thus, the meaning of 'metropolis' is "mother city", not "train" since "trains" never existed during the reign of the "Roman Empire."

And while I'm on the topic, a boot is something you wear, a crisp is made out of rice and the underground is a network of natural caves full of monsters. :mad:

What a word means a bajillion years ago != what it means now.

The f word might make a good example of this. :P
2005-04-17, 4:03 AM #38
No, what it means now is "big city". What it may mean in your daffy backwards corner of the world may be "bus and/or train", but I'd be willing to bet good money that your use of the word "metro" is sort for "Metropolitan Transit System".
2005-04-17, 4:05 AM #39
Bingo mister. :P

People don't use the word to metro refer to a city anymore.

Well, unless you're refering to the city in which the Daily Planet resides. But you'd probably say Metropolis.
2005-04-17, 4:10 AM #40
No, you don't use the word 'metro' to refer to a city anymore.

And, for the record,

"The word literaly[sic] means bus ****er or train ****er..."

....the word you're looking for is "metrophile," not "metrosexual"
