Ur so gay and you don't even like boys...

So, I was tired of creating another trend report, another polyvore "get the look" set, another 'cold' post on what we should wear according to fashion's orders. I am a strongly opinionated person, and since I never got to dedicate a post to men's fashion I decided to express my disagreement against the men's collections that I've been watching all these years. The number of collections I liked is very, VERY small and I really don't get it. Why should men dress like ... girls? To set the record straight: I love gay people and I totally support them. But why should straight men dress like .. they're not?

Guys, let me give you clue, girls don't like it when it's hard t distinguish whether your jeans are male or female. They don't also like it when you wear flashy colors like fuchsia or orange or lime green, and especially when you mix it all together like it's Halloween or Easter or something :S I don't even wanna touch the subject 'eyeliner' 'cause we're gonna jump to a whole new level...

And you know what I don't get? Metrosexual. What's with shaving everything? Did I say shaving? I'm sorry. What's wrong with WAXING everything (because shaving doesn't leave the skin smooth..:S)? Men are supposed to have hair. Yeah, be shocked and act like you're disgusted. HAIR, real hair. A straight man is supposed to look male. Because otherwise girls jump to the immediate conclusion that you're GAY. This latest 'trend' that makes the gender seem a little 'blurry' is really frustrating and totally unattractive. So please designers, stop trying to make them look like gals, 'cause except for irritating, it's also very funny, to the point of ridiculous.

  2. Firstly, I am soo following you!! and as a gay guy i dont know why designers want straight guys to look like gay guys its scary, unnecessary and kinda creepy. no one wants straight women to look like lesbians. That's a whole seperate topic.

    keep the REAL posts coming... and i am ashamed to say i like the second pic in the first line of images (grey cardi, tan shoes)
