haven't we been through this before.
as a heterosexual male who follows fashion,
i've noticed a negative reception from most of society (women and men) for men who adheres to fashion. It guess it's just not that acceptable for a man to worry about their appearance. And i don't mean that metrosexual shit we went through in early millennium, but a more unique form of dressing up, to set oneself apart form the crowd.
Take a look around, the next time you go out to a club, and you will see 99% of the men there wearing a pair of blue denim (relaxed or bootcut), long sleeve shirt (untucked), and a pair of slip on shoes in the following colors; black, brown, or white. no imagination, everyone looks the same. no one wants to stand out, be labeled a fag.
hence, that is why the homosexual man is more likely to experiment with different trends.
i.e. skinny jeans
yes, i wear them, i've been wearing them for years now. Not that ultra-skinny jean like Cheap Monday, but a skinny denim with some stretch. But for me, I was following my rock roots, ala Ramones, The Clash, The Cure to name a few. I was surprised when the trend took off, and i was ahead of the curve...again. The ULTRA SKINNY look is definitely not going to last, as the extremities of fashion usually don't, but slim jeans will be around for a few more years.
as to guys wearing girl jeans.
A couple of years ago, it was hard to find a skinny denim for men, so yes, many skinny men sized 26-29 opted for women's jeans, as they were the only brands doing skinny. I never did myself, but now there is just no excuse.
