This blog offers the following disclaimer: The comments contained within aim at the segment of men in American society that represent the grunge, gang, or hoodlum style in appearance. The post does not seek to indict the entire male population of the United States.
Please tell me why men like Brad Pitt wear ridiculous hats and scraggly beards as part of the overall impression they leave on the observer . Sorry, Brad, but, for years, I thought you were one of the most attractive male stars on the scene. When I see you wearing shapeless clothes and sporting that beard in the picture above, I must look twice to make certain it's really you. Brad is not alone in choosing this look as standard dress. Countless other celebrities do the same. Ham on Wry prefers men who are well-groomed, as opposed to men who adopt the popular unkempt trend that has lasted far past its expiration date.
We have endured pants so large and baggy that the wearers must swish when they walk, or the pants will fall to their ankles. Men who wear these atrocious garments usually don oversize t-shirts to complete the ensemble. Then there's the popular face stubble worn by the supposedly manly man. Evidently, it's designed to make women swoon at the mere thought of someone with high levels of testosterone nearby. Trust me, it has the opposite effect. Who wants to emerge from a romantic interlude with scratches from the wanna be beard?
Is this some kind of insidious plot to undermine the men's fashion industry? It dominates magazines, TV, movies, music video, and street attire. Enough already! May we return to slacks that fit well and either clean-shavem faces or full-grown mustaches or beards? Please! Who can admire a man's behind if it's covered in a sloppy shirt over too-large pants? Give the world a break, guys. Buy some new clothes that actually fit your body, and leave the slovenly look behind.
