To me it is a problem but maybe not to you. I bought a cheap pair of sunglasses yesterday. I went into a 40 yr old woman’s office and asked if I could use her scissors to cut the tag off. She said,”ooh. Sunglasses.” I told her not to get excited because I paid $12 at Target and that I really don’t care if they were fashionable because I’m a guy. She said she would be more concerned if I were worried about being fashionable and made a limp wrist gesture. We both laughed.

Is it me or are they a bit too narrow? Debating whether to keep or return them. I didn't realize how difficult it was to find good sandals that fit well and look halfway decent. The first ones I posted are not too comfortable if I wear them longer than a couple hours.
No man, and most women should be allowed to walk around with their feet in view unless they are on a beach. I find it repulsive.

I am a guy looking to get a makeover. Is that weird?
Nope, that isn't weird...why should girls have all the fun!??!
Nothing wrong with trying to jazz things up or look your best, no matter who you are.
And like I mentioned it can be fun, and boost your confidence also.

Because dressing up is a feminine thing to do and always has been. Men shouldn’t be looking to pretty themselves up. Shouldn’t a man just be a man? I feel the same about women body builders. Not a good look.don’t call me old, I would have said the same thing in my 20s.

^LOL....My husband loves to get all dressed up! He is the one always buying hats not me, and I tease him about being a clothes @****! He is always wanting more clothes...I hate shopping for clothes and will just go pick out something online when I need some.
He is not at all feminine in the least! He is a sharp shooter and ex-Policeman.
Use to lift weights when he was younger.


I have never understood the reasoning behind female body builders, but hey, to each his own.
Live and let live, I do me and you do you....that's my philosophy on life.
But, yeah everyone is entitled to their own opinion!


I don't see anything wrong in someone wanting to make themself look or feel better.
And I am not young, I am in my 60's.

Until very recently it was typical across cultures and time periods for male fashion to be at least as extravagant as female fashion. It was often more practical for active life, but no less colorful, flattering, detailed, etc.

It's the male peacocks that are flashy.

Me either. But we got so sloppy with our oversized, baggy, shapeless and boring clothes, which we consider "comfy", that anyone who still try to look stylish and well-clothed is now considered dandy and unmanly. And actually embarrassed to stand out from the crowd.

Forgive me if I'm repeating anything already stated-

there's an old reality TV show called "***** Eye For The Straight Guy"......

Honestly the most snappy dressers are homosexual men. They're always surrounded by men. They gossip, they love attention.

So even if you have a problem with gay men, put that aside and let them dress you. Your life will improve.....
