I pay attention to my own personal style and grooming and try to present myself well, so to a certain extent I (sometimes) notice what other men wear reflexively. If a certain look works well on someone with a somewhat similar appearance, I might remember it because I might try a similar look, and by the same coin, if something looks terrible on someone else I'm going to remember it might be smart not to try it.
I have plenty of male friends who might say something like "hey, where are those shoes from?" or "nice jacket, man" to each other. I don't find this as weird or un-masculine; it seems extraordinarily insecure to do so.
Just out of curiosity how much do you notice women's appearance? Are you as critical/notice flaws in women like you do men? Btw, I am not implying you are gay. You seem to be concerned with male looks as a vehicle to attract and connect with women. Even if you seem to be my polar opposite I enjoy reading your posts.

Besides estimated age and race/ethnicity, I notice a woman's attractiveness and body type. (Boobies!) If she's not old, I think I usually tune into very fair skin (partly because I like it) and assess hair length, too, probably, and maybe if she's wearing glasses. Something I always notice is whether she is dressed 'cheap.' If she is not attractive to me, I'll hardly pay attention beyond those details.
Back on topic: I also, if feet are already in view, usually notice if men are wearing good dress shoes, despite little interest in doing so myself.
No men are going to follow my lead on the specifics they notice about other dudes?

It's probably because you are not a good looking person. You are not used to attracting others simply by your looks. So that aspect is not something you are conscious of or care about. It seems fine to me and only natural. People who are very good looking learn early in life to automate attention to that aspect, since it seems to be an effortless way to attract affection and attention from fellow human beings.
I'm gay, so obviously I notice good looking men, and really pay no attention or care about women's looks. But I've always wondered with good looking, well-dressed straight me, do they realize they're good looking and well dressed? How do they decide how to dress if they don't care about men's looks?
Although, I'm probably not the best dressed gay man out there. I'm in great physical shape, but jeans and a t-shirt is my preferred wardrobe. (Not Rustler jeans and a wife beater lol!)
this thread cracks me up. its not that I care, but im not afraid to admit when I see a good looking guy either. this coming from a straight male
Mod cut.
