Ugh, and this indoor plumbing and daily hygiene is such a chore.
Casually forgetting that they didn’t shower back then.
This is a man vs bear scenario, repainted to make the modern man look like what feminazis view us as. Simple as.
I’m a woman who prefers the man on the right. Not the clown on the left.
I’m wearing awesome socks. Those are anything but boring!
Rich guys wearing really dour clothes is actually a relatively recent phenomenon in history. Up to the French Revolution the aristocrats were peacocked up to the max; maybe it was fear of the guillotine that saw their successors going around in North Face jackets.
It is still happening, just more metaphorically, so less people can catch it.
Rich cunts then:
Rich cunts now:
Poor cunts then:

Or to put it another way, nothing has changed. The upper classes still dress like wankers who sniff their own farts, and the lower classes still dress with whatever they can afford that works for them.
Ladies, What’s stopping you from dressing like this
I am an 1,87m tall, somewhat broad shouldered dude over 40 with a bit of a beer belly and a beard (imagine a stereotypical lumberjack but working in IT)… what is stopping me dressing like that? Well… i don’t want to see people around me clawing out their eyes.
The only thing separating you from crossdressing decently is shaving and wearing makeup right. And with the beer belly and broad shoulders just avoid tight clothing.
Be the cognitohazard you don’t want others to be!
Coward, do it anyways!
Having a career. At home though, nothing :3
I don’t have breasts like that
Not with that attitude!
…hormones and time, mostly: i haven’t been able to pull off that look for thirty years and trust me when i say that you wouldn’t want to see me try…
I’m more of a summer/spring in my color scheme
My penis would dangle out the bottom of the skirt.
There are ways to tuck.
being a shower must suck
Like a real Scotsman.
This is the way.
I’m a bear built, and even though I just bought a skirt. I’ll never look cute like that,
Don’t underestimate the power of makeup. Ask a female friend for help.
Don’t under estimate the power of the combo of tiny skirt thicc thighs.
And you know what!
I’m a cis male, and I’m not even thinking this is any form of gender bending. I’m wearing them because when I wear them, they are manly.
I’m not against blurring gender lines, it just not my style. I just hate that make fashion is basically funeralwear.
When I die I want everyone to attend in the most colorful and creative outfits, need to make a will to ask people wearing a traditional suit to fuck off.
That’s my problem with male fashion too. It’s all so bland and boring.
Women’s fashion: colorful, cute looking.
Men’s fashion: dark, drab, all the same.
Dude on the left pulls it off, dude on the right does not, imo.
Is it the wooden teeth?
This is an absolutely hilarious episode of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Worth a watch! :D
See good buddy that’s why you buy yourself thrift.
I wear suits that cost me 20 bucks that look better than what the president wears. Not that that’s a high bar, but a worthy comparison.
Well you’re probably younger and more fit and wearing stuff that’s five years out of date instead of thirty five.
I think they dropped a word there. I think “rich” was the word they dropped…
that’s a part of it, however during the Victorian time. it became fashionable for men to be stoic and boring. that’s why a guy can wear the same outfit for a meeting, a wedding, and a funeral.
although wealth is a big factor. it isn’t the whole story. a good suit can cost a lot and still be fashionably bankrupt.
And if you try to put some flare, they will question your sexuality and distupt the corporate dynamics.
Tbf, that (dress dark and be boring) was probably due to all the opium/morphine they were on.
we have better drugs now, why are we still dressing like we are opium addicts??
Look up “Beau Brummely” and “Great Renunciation”.
US southern-prep khakis, blazer, shirt and tie, slightly longer hair is pretty much the exact look Brummely and his dandies created and socially enforced through mockery.
Some people claim that the underlying force granting Brummely the ability to do so had to do with the center of power shifting from traditional nobility to financiers.
Wooden teeth, life’s a beach.
Speak for yourself my guy liner and manscara is on point.
Who’s got boring socks? Not me, sir. 😤
Socks with sandals
Oh no
Don’t you ever insinuate i have boring socks ever again.
how long does it take for your toenails to dig though them?
you might call that boring.
Some people do loud shirts, I do loud socks.
wasn’t the make up meant to hide the lesions and wigs to hide the peeling scalp and hair loss?
Those lesions and hair loss were usually caused by syphilis which was considered wildly scandalous at the time.
hair loss
… maybe we should bring back pompous wigs.
i also want to bring back balding friendly hair styles, which were popular across many cultures in the past, so much so that it was common for people to shave their heads to achieve it. look at traditional Japanese hair cuts, or European monks.
on paper they’ll say there’s a reason for that. but I’m being the style came first, then they justified it. because if they didn’t like it in the first place, they wouldn’t have done it and created reasons for them.
. because if they didn’t like it in the first place, they wouldn’t have done it and created reasons for them.
I hear the european monks did it specifically because it’s ugly.
yhea but that still doesn’t explain the colourful detailed outfits.
