Five Fashion Rules for Men

Rule 1. Always pop. Some piece – whether it’s your shoes, shirt, or even an accessory like a like a watch – must stand out. Women pay particular attention to shoes, and thus a vividly-colored pair of Sauc0ny trainers will make you stand out, and add excitement to a pair of blue jeans. Wearing these shoes St. Patrick’s Day would have gotten you pinched for the right reasons.

Rule 2. Invite touching. Your clothing should be soft fabrics that make a woman want to touch you. Cardigans work really well. Feel the fabric before purchasing a new garment. Ask yourself, “Would a woman want to put her soft skin next to this?”

Remember, too, that women are like ferrets. They like shiny objects, and enjoy fiddling with their man. A shirt with a lot of buttons and layers invites them to touch you.

Rule 3. Dress up your strengths. If you’re muscular or have a modelesque body, wear tapered shirts. Often many shirts will have too much fabric around the waist, making you look blocky rather than buff. Take your shirts to a tailor. The alteration will only cost $10-15, and will make a huge difference in how the shirt looks and feels.

Rule 4. Dress down your weaknesses. If you’re skinny or less muscular, wear tighter clothing. Although it’s counter-intuitive, baggy or non-form-fitting clothing makes you look smaller.  Baggy clothing won’t conform to your body, and will make you look like a thin rail covered by a sheet. Thinner men should also layer their clothing, as the extra attention to fabric will draw more attention to the clothing than to any physical shortcomings.  

Do you notice that this guy might weigh a buck fifty? Nope. His clothing attracts attention to itself, and thus draws in women.

 

Rule 5. Dress for your (skin) color. Purple looks phenomenal on black guys, but silly on red-haired men. If you have blue eyes, wear blue shirts to highlight the color of your eyes. Dressing for your skin color could be an entire article. In fact, there’s a book written about it. Find a copy Color of Men on Amazon or other used book store, and study it closely.

“Bachelorhood And Its Discontents”

To marry is to halve your rights and double your duties. — Arthur Schopenhauer

“Behind every good man,” the myth goes, “is a good woman.” Ronald Regan, even before he had Alzheimer’s, claimed that “women were responsible for civilizing men, and that were it not for female influence, men might still be living in caves and running around in skin tights carrying clubs.” Dinesh D’Souza, Ronald Reagan: How an Ordinary Man Became an Extraordinary Leader. Perhaps natural-born losers like D’Souza require a woman to guide them. Most successful men, however, consider women a hindrance.

What successful man has not been nagged for “working too hard,” and “not spending enough time at home,” with his wife? A married man doing great work is interrupted at 7 p.m. “Why aren’t you home yet?” Every alpha male will offer his own anecdotes – which statistical analysis confirm:

Some years ago a noted Japanese researcher analyzed the biographical data of some 280 famous mathematicians, physicists, chemists, and biologists and discovered that all peaked professionally in their twenties, at which point their careers spiraled downward. Married scientists suffered the worst decline in productivity. However, those who never married remained highly productive well into their fifties. “Scientists tend to ‘desist’ from scientific research upon marriage,” the researcher told an interviewer, “just like criminals desist from crime upon marriage.” One theory suggests married men lack an evolutionary reason to continue working hard (i.e., to attract females). Though it likely they similarly lack the prerequisite time and solitude.

In “Bachelorhood And Its Discontents,” Christopher Orlet does not state a compelling case against marriage qua marriage. He does not, however, that a list of bachelors is also a Who’s Who of Accomplishment:

Who can argue that a brief catalog of famous bachelors reads like a roll call of the architects of Western Civilization?:

Pierre Bayle
Robert Boyle
Johannes Brahms
Samuel Butler
Robert Burton
Ludwig van Beethoven
Johannes Brahms
Giacomo Casanova
Frederic Chopin

“Hall Pass”: Betas in Hollywood

Hollywood’s latest assault on men and masculinity is “Hall Pass,” whose premise is simple: Without a woman guiding him (in a scene noted in the trailer, literally driving him around like a school child), the man would be aimless and helpless. The truth, as any married man can attest, is the opposite. Marriage prevents a man from becoming himself, as he is forced to subjugate his dreams to a cuntnag’s desire for more-more-more-mortgages.
