I have a guy friend who always comments on conflicting patterns, If you wear a floral skirt and a large striped top for example he will be like, ‘that should be a sold with your skirt you know.’ I have another guy friend who always mentions whether your coat matches your outfit, to him if it doesn’t match and you don’t have one to match just don’t wear a jacket! (which is kinda ridiculous if you ask me)

My guy friends hate when women think men are cave men who only think about sex and/or things that lead to sex, and don’t have opinions on anything else. Oh, wait, no. That’s me who hates that, not my friends.

We have plenty of opinions (more than you would like to know on some of the crazy shit women wear) and have no intention of saying them as nicely as possible to make people feel better. They’re just usually dismissed as wrong, unimportant or too rude to consider and generally, we stop trying.

Whenever I wear boots my boyfriend jokes about me being a pirate or Link from Zelda. I totally take the Link one as a compliment though since I play Zelda often. He always tells me that he likes when I wear jeans, a tee, and chucks. Which is nice because it makes getting ready easy.

the braided ponytail straps are ugly on the boots, but people have different preferences. my straight guy friends don’t really comment out loud or discuss fashion on women. I can tell by the look on their face, such as their eyes widening for a few seconds, if they are attracted to the female, who walked by, is hot or not or they just directly turn their head or entire body to look at the sexy female in question

There blatant stereotype here bugs me, because just because your friend is like that, or maybe all your guy friends are doesn’t at all mean all guys are. Or even most. From my experience, they aren’t. I know some guys like that, but I know plenty of others with very different stances and opinions and ways of expressing them, even some with a genuine interest in fashion, and no, not just them being sexist pigs and only being interested in slutty fashion. I don’t see why it’d be that refreshing, because honestly, if you only surround yourself with that one type of guy, sort of your fault, because really, they’re not even NEARLY all like that. Stop being so discriminatory, because my God, is it annoying, and honestly, sort of disgusting to me. Feminists whine about how guys have all these stereotypes about women, but somehow it’s basically accept, sometimes encouraged for people to have these kinds of sexist, stupid stereotypes about guys. They’re not really accurate, though, if you bother to pay attention or surround yourself with a variety of different types of guys, and even if it did seem true in your life, it’s unfair to not give guys you don’t know the benefit of the doubt and stereotype them based on what you’ve experienced with the few you know.

Really, I don’t talk to my old friends much since I got sick, but I don’t know. Even then, I didn’t, not because they didn’t talk about it it like your stereotype implies, but because I didn’t have a huge interest in fashion at the time myself, so it didn’t matter to me, so even if I tried to pay attention, it went over my head or I forgot it almost immediately.

My best guy friend absolutely despises floral patterns on anything, whether it be a floral pattern on a dress, shoes, etc.

I don’t think any guy has ever complained about the clothes I wear, but when I was younger, my guy friends did tease me about the fact I wouldn’t leave my dorm room to walk to the vending machines w/o make-up.  (and I do mean full make up, not just lipstick and mascara, I didn’t care if I had to rewash my face).

cowboy type boots are just fucking ugly in general

@sunflowersforlove@xanga - hahaha, i have a pair of pixie boots that my boyfriend calls my zelda shoes!

My honey always gives me his honest opinion, but not in a brutal kind of way… you can be honest without being a dick

And his fashion sense is probably better than mine anyway, ha

Most of my guy friends don’t give a fuck about what I wear. I think that’s the last thing on their mind is. 

I read a post from lovelyish quite some time back…
it said that guys doesn’t like leggings as well. haha.
which I won’t give a damn cos I’m a big fan of leggings. XD

My friends were making fun of my boots the other day, asking me if I was going to be riding horses later or something. It was pretty funny, but I still love my boots. They’re these ones:

Big sunglasses. All of my guy friends hate on them so hard core, they think we look like bugs and that we’re hiding something lol

I’d have to agree with him on any cowboy-related fashion item that is not worn to a rodeo.  But that’s beside the point.  One of the most common male opinions I’ve heard is that guys think it’s dumb that we wear shoes/boots with really high heels that are hard to walk in, especially in the winter.  The whole “cute but uncomfortable” shoe conundrum doesn’t seem to exist in men’s fashion (at least, not fashion for regular dudes).

Most guys that I know also think giant sunglasses are really stupid-looking.  I like mine so I shall continue to wear them   And my fiance hates leggings and thinks they make all girls look bad, no matter what size.  I hate leggings to, so that works out.  One thing I think they can allll agree on is anything that shows cleavage = a good thing.

@sunflowersforlove@xanga - I asked my boyfriend what he thought about these brown boots I picked out a few years ago and he gave me a huge thumbs up because he said they reminded him of Link lol.

I think cowboy boots for fashion are dumb. And almost 100% of the time ugly.

My boyfriend hates when I wear moccasins. He always calls them “deer shoes”.

i have those boots lol

Clearly women dress for the sake of other women and not men. If we really wanted to impress most men – we’d walk around naked. 

Most of my guy friends really don’t comment on clothing although I always have my old college professors compliment my shoes all the time. It’s kinda amusing. 

Actually I think those boots look awesome. I’d wear them XD
