[FONT=Tahoma][COLOR=#99CCEE]It's time for another one of my patented rants. This was actually inspired by something Orbax wrote in another thread about people who don't know how to dress themselves and wear baggy clothes and sideways hats and so on... I want an honest answer here, preferably from females but anyone who knows is welcome to respond:

Why is it that every time I see a drop-dead gorgeous girl who happens to be with a guy, the guy is wearing a FUCKING BASEBALL CAP? Seriously, EVERY guy I see with a beautiful woman in this city has a goddamn HAT on. Do I have to wear one of those pieces of crap to get attention?

And on top of that, the angle of the hat seems to be directly proportional to just how far above average the girl is (i.e. the more sideways the hat, the more beautiful the girl). WHY? At what point in the history of this proud nation did it become respectable or even tolerable to dress like a slob? To me, a hat would seem to indicate that the person wearing it either cannot or is simply not willing to do a half-decent job washing/combing his hair in the morning, and just throws that thing on so people can't see the mop on his head. Yes, that MAY not be the reason they wear it, but it's like the girls who look like they showered in make-up, you just have to wonder what's hiding under it.

I realize this probably sounds ridiculous but it's honestly true. I just picked up on it a few weeks ago and have been paying attention since then, and it's seriously unreal how many jaw-dropping hotties hang around with guys with HATS on and just generally look like absolute slobs. I'm not basing this on 3 or 4 couples as some of you are probably thinking, I have seen this phenomenon AT LEAST 50 times in the past few weeks and almost never seen the opposite (i.e. the same thing with a well-dressed, well-off guy). This is not the same as the "bad boy" appeal either which I used to see when I was younger - these people do not look dangerous, they just look like idiots. I only weigh 140 but I know I could kick their asses in a heartbeat.

So let's hear it, is "slob" the "in"-fashion now? It makes me want to retch thinking about wearing ripped baggy jeans down to my ass along with a losing team's sport jersey and a sideways cap, but the statistical evidence is piling up fast - apparently that's what I have to do around here to be "cool".






easy as this girls dig guys who arent uptigtht...guys who dont give a fuck....a guy whos too self concious and thinks everyone is looking at whats wrong with his hair or the clothes hes wearing usually end up in last..its abt confidence

I'm not quite sure I understand this phenomenon either Aaron. Coming from a "female" perspective, I have to say that this "look" that has recently come into fashion, is not attractive at all. Actually, it's quite disgusting.

What is attractive about someone who constantly dresses like a bum? Are girls proud of the fact that it looks like they picked up their boyfriend off the street? Imho, a man who possesses knowledge on how to dress = sexy.

And wearing a hat can look extreemly good, but the wearing it sideways thing... ugh. How is that even beneficial to a day to day life? Does the tilt of the cap give some sort of protection against the wind *if* it *happens* to be blowing in a certain direction?

Meh, I'm european though, so it's quite possible that my thoughts of "sexy" are quite different than others.

If I have to keep myself fit, attractive (in the dressing sense), employed, etc etc, so do you. End of story.

Damnit, I got quoted. I deleted the last response because I didn't want to edit it. *sigh*

*edit* Btw, loose, not baggy jeans are attractive. I can't deal with a guy who wears tighter pants than me.

good to see some girl input. i have to totally agree with you. i mean i wouldn't want to be with a girl who just laid around in sweatpants all day. effort shows confidence and that is sexy.

i don't think i look very good in hats...so i don't own any.

I don't really feel like arguing, but Vivid Boy, you're assuming a lot of things here that I never said, and let me assure you that I wasn't asking for advice.

Question: do you ever get haircuts? Do you shave? Do you shower? Do you do laundry? If so, why? Doesn't that constitute "trying too hard?"

Obviously you do, and obviously you don't call that overdoing it. You're supposed to shower and look presentable. Yes it's great not to care what other people think, but there is still a bare minimum that one generally has to keep up in order to maintain the respect of his/her peers.

I do want the guy to feel comfortable, but he doesn't have to look like a slob doing it. It honestly depends on where you are going and what you are doing. Attire to run some errands during the day would obviously differ than what he would wear at night going out. If his whole wardrobe looks the same then there's a problem (at least for me). If a guy goes out at night and looks like a slob he doesn't stand a chance with me. I honestly believe that the way you present yourself says a lot about you and how you would be in a relationship. Same thing goes for guys that over do it. If a guy always has to be dressed up...even going to Home Depot...that's just too anal. A guy can over do it. Sometimes you need to be able to just get dressed and go. I look for that happy medium.

I'm not into the baggy look at all. I'm not into the t-shirt and jeans look all the time...it gets old. If I'm going out at night with a guy to dinner or to a club I do prefer if the guy dresses nice. I don't mean decked out in a suit, but there are casual dress pants and shirts that are just as comfortable as jeans and a t-shirt. I like being with someone that takes pride in their appearance.

As for baggy clothes and wearing a sideways hat. If I saw a guy in a club dressed like that I wouldn't look twice. I doubt that I would even notice if he was good looking...I wouldn't care. I am not attracted to that look in the least. I don't care for hip hop so guys that are dressed that way turn me off. The same goes for country. I'm not into country music so guys wearing tight Wrangler jeans with boots and a hat won't get a second glance. That's just my personal preference.

I agree sounds like aron's just bitter. Generally girls aren't attracted to up tight geeks who cyber all day complaining that girls fall for the wrong type of guys. My advice: go offline, loosen up, have a beer, and attend social events, instead of brooding at home and constructing theories based on your lack of social skills.

You didn't have to say that; I could tell you think that way based on how well-dressed you are in your clubing pics.
