Bring back togas.
Don't feel bad for us. I like my pants. Even on a blistering hot day at work they keep me safer from burns and cuts and when I'm out hiking in jeans I don't have tick problems
I feel blessed that I only have to wear pants.
@atomicorange I've been kilt-only for two years now and the very idea of ever having to wear trousers again is outright horrible.
I've also tried skirts, dresses. and women's things in general but holy crap most of it is just wildly uncomfortable and not remotely functional. The entire Western clothing industry is caught in a serious rut
but nobody “has to” wear pants. im not wearing any, and if I can do it anyone can
I guess the closest we got are priestly robes and kilts then.
My wife would disagree
I work from home so I wear my pajamas or boxer shorts all day and there is no one to criticize me.
I have to wear dresses on Wednesday’s and Thursday’s.
I disagree. Incredibly uncomfortable.
And I hate the sexual appropriation. Especially coerced.
I’m all in favor of this. Now we just have to get everyone else on board. And like others have said, find dresses that actually look good on men. I (m) have been trying out dresses for a while and finding something that looks good on me is a challenge.
I read this and immediately thought of anprims for some reason.
I've got some nicer looking golf type pants that work really well in the heat. IT's been over 90 for months already, and i'm in Canada where we're not used to this being here for so long. I'm pretty much dri fit from head to toe when it's over 23c now and it's at least as light and flowy as a dress haha.
To all the men saying they're comfortable enough in jeans / chinos / whatever... you should TRY wearing a dress in a hot summer. There is a little bit of adjusting to get used to it, but after that damn they feel amazing. Women are so lucky to wear these whenever they want to.
You can of course decide you're comfortable enough in whatever, but an informed decision is always the better thing.
