If my wife bought a cute dress and only wore it once, I'd be annoyed af.

"Fast fashion" is a plague of waste. Wear your shit until it falls apart.

[-] kilgore_trout@feddit.it 28 points 2 days ago

Even better, repair it before it falls apart.

Most of my wardrobe is like 15 years old. I have like 6 "new" shirts aka don't have visible signs of wear that I wear for work and social outings. Getting new shit to wear all the time sounds like hell to me. I hate shopping for clothes because I have hard time finding shit that fits right.

There is this one dress she wore damn near had a heart attack first time I saw her in it. If she never did again it would be a crime.

I would be annoyed at time number 30. When she won't wear the one I like. Because its a problem keeping it on.

[-] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 day ago

Both can be true at the same time. Nothing exists in a vacuum.

[-] Tedesche@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

No, that’s not an example of male privilege, period.

[-] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 0 points 12 hours ago

The bar is on the floor for men, and unreasonably high for women.
Women put some of those restrictions on each other, but largely as a byproduct of the society they were raised in.

It's a privilege in the same way that having a shoulder to cry on is a female privilege.

If you're going to try to argue that society doesn't push people into certain roles or to think in certain ways, or that men aren't also involved in creating the parts of society that determine roles for women, then I don't think we can have a meaningful exchange.

I don’t consider that female privilege. I think we just have different definitions for what privilege is or more likely where we draw the line. To me, privilege is something more concrete and impactful, like men being trusted more in leadership roles or women being more trusted around kids.

I wish it was socially acceptable for men to wear the colorful stuff women do on formal occasions. It's almost always black, white, grey or maybe dark blue.

I want things like paisley suits to be considered normal. Why not? It's just a pattern.

I'm not saying it because I want to do it, I'm saying it because I want to see it. Make congress a sea of color rather than a bit here and a bit there.

This guy shops at Better Call Saul's

[-] ApollosArrow@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I honestly wish more stuff that is shown on runways would make it over to men. There’s a lot of fun that can be had. Plain suits are boring, even if you add color to them.

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

First 3 look like final fantasy protagonists

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

That last one looks like a pirate and I want it

[-] MJKee9@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Last one rocks so fucking hard. I'd wear that shit to bed.

I wish it were acceptable for men to wear bright dresses.

I said that to my wife a few months ago, so she said “why don’t you try on some of mine?”

So yeah, I now have few dresses I wear around the house. They’re great. Nice and floaty.

[-] bluewing@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

Get a kilt for the out and about look, my good fellow. While wearing one will draw some looks, it is far more acceptable and good-looking and practical than an ill-fitting woman's dress.

I once found a sick purple/red paisley suit jacket.

At the register my family pleaded I not get it. That it's embarrassing to wear.

I feel you

This is a misery of their own making, men have no hand in that!

Every time my wife worries about not wearing the same thing, I get her to list any outfit the others were wearing last time.

It's all in your head.

As a guy, I definitely don’t give two shits about anyone wearing the same outfit. Heck, I dress like a cartoon character: I buy seven identical shirts, seven identical pants and just wear that until things need replacing.

To an outside observer, it would look like I literally have one outfit that I wear for two months straight. I very rarely switch up a shirt when it’s either too hot or cold, but other than that, I like to keep it really simple.

Okay and where is the punchline? How is this funny?

[-] Asclepiaz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Woman dumb and wrong haha?

[-] Ephera@lemmy.ml 148 points 3 days ago

Where's the funny? Ragebait isn't funny.

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

Oh I thought we were laughing about how this thing was posted here after it's been posted like a hundred times on Reddit.

Just in case anyone is wondering how true this is, about 10 years ago, an Australian TV anchor decided to keep wearing the same suit and see how long it took people to notice.

After a year, no one had mentioned it.

That said, I agree with the man's statement that it would overwhelmingly be women who criticized other women for wearing the same clothes.

We don't even get multiple outfit options. We get

  • a suit
  • an innoticably different suit
[-] StupidBrotherInLaw@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago

You can make your own clothes like me (early 50s, married cishet male), then have people question your sexuality and try to hook you up with their guy friends.

I just like dressing the way I want to dress and sometimes I want a burgundy corduroy dress suit or neon trews.

To quote the immortal Al Bundy: 'don't try to understand women, son. Women understand women, and they HATE them'.

It's the internalized beauty standards

reddit post (derogatory)

[-] ConsistentAlgae@reddthat.com 37 points 3 days ago

I think most people are missing the point.

For work I wear the same free t-shirt to support “brand awareness” once a week.

It doesn’t matter if it’s man or woman making the statement this is what matters: what sad fucking life are you living to notice what I wear every day?

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 36 points 3 days ago

A co-worker from years ago once said "if you're noticing that I'm wearing the same shirt repeatedly, it's more your problem than mine."
