They tell you to trust it though?

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 24 points 1 year ago

And it's telling me I can't pull this off.

I'm pretty sure the modern term for this look is "fuckboy"

[-] thorbot@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Fuckboy, suckboy, cuckboy. You can have it all

[-] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 66 points 1 year ago

I'm short and fat.

I’d say “the office dress code,” but what I really mean is my gut.

That was a straight fad. Now it's a gay fad. Lotta hateful crazy people. Soooo the fact that someone may try to attack me for wearing such things even if I want to.

[-] Wanderer@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

The gays ruin all the fun.

Just like wrestling in the showers.

What's stopping me is lack of hunk.

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

Come on, you're not just some guy!

[-] LegionEris@feddit.nl 49 points 1 year ago

I live down the street from a college. Many of my neighbors are college students. I've seen roughly this look on a handful of very young men in the last year. I've seen guys in their early 20s/late teens playing sports in roughly this outfit. It is coming back/fashion is more fluid these days. There are still trends, but many young people wear all sorts of stuff that just looks good on their bodies with little regard for era or popularity.

[-] CluelessLemmyng@lemmy.sdf.org 29 points 1 year ago

That's currently what I'm seeing in terms of style these days. The prevalence of body positivity has allowed people to wear things that flatter themselves. There will always be the crowd that tries something new, but no one is going to be shunned for trying something that works or is comfortable.

[-] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 32 points 1 year ago

Since I don't recognize these movies I'm half tempted to think these are just shots from gay porn intros.

[-] Mayonnaise@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The first picture is the first A Nightmare on Elm Street (thats Johnny Depp, fyi). I think the second picture is the second Nightmare movie (it has a baseball game in gym class scene but I'm not sure if that's it). I couldn't tell you what the last picture is from but I would guess one of the Friday the 13th movies.

Edit: I think the second and third pictures go together. Maybe they're both Nightmare 2 but I'm not sure.

A lot of old horror movies went the "soft-core porn with stabbing" route, so you aren't far off.

While I could say my gut/lack of hunkiness/taste but....

I really, really don't want to attract serial killers.

[-] mogul@lemmy.world 30 points 1 year ago

About 150lbs and the fact I don't want my ballsack hanging out my jorts.

[-] jabathekek@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 year ago

them some low hangers friendo

[-] mogul@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Happens when you get old sonny

[-] The_Eminent_Bon@lemmy.world 25 points 1 year ago

These are also the guys who gets stabbed to death with a rusty fork by a masked murderer. Im not saying wearing crop tops causes violent death but there seems to be a correlation

You might be on to something

[-] Case@unilem.org 9 points 1 year ago

I mean, small sample size, but I've never worn a crop top and I haven't been brutally murdered, well, yet.

[-] CarlsIII@kbin.social 20 points 1 year ago

My enormous gut, which I guarantee you don’t want to see

I don't have shirts in kid sizes

[-] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

I'm not sure my hairy mid-40's self would be well recevied.

Don't know until you try! Lol

[-] Dick_Justice@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Imran, you've just checked off two of my green flags

[-] XbSuper@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

My belly would get cold. I always wonder how women tolerate it.

The fact they look ridiculous is what's stopping me.

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

I have gay friends that wouldn't be caught dead wearing that.

I guarantee that "style" was because a producer wanted the guys to dress like that.

[-] thezeesystem@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Truthfully it's mainly because of sexism and how people think that certain clothes = certain sex and gender or sexual orientation.

Nothing. This is how I dress in the summer. Except I have a dad bod and not one of those chiseled Adonis bodies so nobody appreciates it as much.

[-] electrogamerman@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I do dress like that for pride parade. I should definitely do it more often.

[-] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 year ago
[-] Blastasaurus@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

I live in a fashion-forward neighbourhood (for North America, at least (which doesn't say much)), and there were definitely straight dudes rocking this look this summer.

[-] UltraMagnus0001@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

my pot belly

[-] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 year ago

Something something third spaces to dress like this and hang out at

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

Doesn't quite work with the whole "aging sasquatch, ex power lifter/dadbod" combo I tend to have.

I tend to scare adults when I'm shirtless for some reason. I can't imagine this would be any better.

[-] gmtom@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Where the fuck would I even find a crop top in mens sizes?
