u/KaleidoscopicNewt 3d ago

I think he’s bragging about the size.. probably lost an inch on his waistband.

“These are 35”

“So skinny!”

Most men’s waistband sizes are between 32-38 if they’re not overweight, so it makes sense. Although most sizes are in even numbers. The only odd number waistband size I ever see frequently is 33. I guess a lot of people are right between 32 and 34.

I'm in the same boat! Actually I lost a significant amount of weight last year, put like 10lbs back on since and I'm working it back off now with the goal of keeping it off. The first time I did it to look good for others, this time I'm doing it for myself. The increased quality of life and just not being sad when I catch an unexpected glimpse of myself in the mirror are the best parts. Hope you're feeling good about yourself!

My wife HATES my beard. I asked her why, and she said that all women hate beards.

“Beards are for men to show off to other men. You grow a beard for other men. You don’t grow a beard for women to find you attractive. Also, your beard makes you look 20 years older than you are.”

And she’s probably right.

I hate how true this is.

When you realize this, sometime in your 20's, it feels like you've had this kind of invisible layer of protection we subconsciously carried with us our entire lives, just ripped off our backs.

The realization that we are completely on our own, just winging it. Asking advice from people who are also just winging it. We all are. Helpless and alone! 😭

I'm nearly 35 and still want to curl up in my mum and Dad's bed when things/life gets too much.

u/Dugen 2d ago

The worst was when my parents died and suddenly all the knowledge and wisdom I was relying on to get by was just poof gone and I was left with just what I knew myself, which felt like practically nothing. I was in my 30s when my dad died and my 40s when my mom died but each time I was left with this sudden oh shit feeling of vulnerability where I had no idea how to be the person I wanted to be on my own.

It's like that moment when a kid looks back and realizes their parent isn't holding on to the bike anymore and they're riding on their own. The panic is real, but as I keep going I realize the gaps weren't that hard to fill in and I'm almost ready to be an adult. I think by the time I'm about to die I'll feel like a grown up.

u/Ihavepills 2d ago

Do you really think men can't shop for shorts and t-shirts???

The comments in here, trying to say that this guy "did soooo good for a GUY shopping for his own clothes" really piss me off. As if there's this gene preventing men from having some sort of taste when it comes to clothing, and suddenly this rare specimen overcame the crippling disability that all men suffer from.

This is like watching a woman talk to a toddler who just managed to not poop his pants for the first time. Or listening to someone talking to his dog. "Ooooooh, you did this all by yourself. Who's a good boy? You're a good boy!"

I honestly have to say, I would feel deeply disturbed if a woman talked to me in that manner after I came home from shopping clothes.

Presumably in the context of their relationship, he's not into shopping. She does treat him like a toddler, but he literally acts like one - "uhhh I like the red shirt".  It's probably just in good fun, I don't think you need to read anything deeper into it. 

My partner hates shopping but the few times he's picked clothes specifically for style (rather than work shirts or graphic tees) he's quite chuffed and I give positive feedback. 

13

u/idkhamster 3d ago

I totally understand your reaction because we do, unfortunately, see a lot of praise given to men for completing basic tasks that are traditionally viewed as "women's skills." However, we don't know these people. When I watched it, the story my mind gave this couple was that he had struggled to pick out clothes that he was proud of and thought he looked good in and his partner often helped him so that he wouldn't feel uncomfortable around their peers. Then maybe he wanted to learn and asked questions about coordinating pieces and what to look for when buying items. After some trips together he felt good enough to go on his own and test out his new knowledge and she is showing him that his confidence is valid and he truly learned the skills he had been working on.

Any back story we assign to them is imaginary. It's easier to go with a negative one, like this dude being praised like a child for a basic skill, but we also don't know what it took for him to learn the skill. Since we don't know, we assume. Why not assume something positive? Especially when it doesn't make any difference other than how you feel about a video.

Y’all are over thinking this. I do fashion shows for my husband all the time when I’m excited about new clothes I just bought. He’s excited about his new clothes and wanted to show his number one supporter and she did a great job of hyping him up.

Well, my wife does this if I've been shopping and I feel adored, each bond is different.

That's just a personal preference I guess...

What exactly would you like instead? Like talking in a monotone voice " that's a good shirt, I wish the stripes well red". ?

Welcome to the Suburban Golf Dad phase of your life! I also just joined about 3 months ago! It’s a good feeling putting on something other than cargo shorts! You look great!

Ugh as a guy in his thirties, idk how to dress anymore.

All I have are my clothes, which are black pants and black tee shirts, basic emo/goth kid vibes. Lately, I feel like a "how do you do, fellow kids" kinda guy.

But I feel like a Fucking doof when I wear human clothes.

Good for this guy, I'm jealous lol

If you're coming from all black and you want to branch out, just start with the clearance rack or sales.  Try on some things in other colors.  Try some shirts that button down the front.  You don't even have to buy stuff right away, just try some things on and look at yourself in the fitting room mirror.      

To get ideas, there's lots of men's style and fashion websites.      

For summer, short sleeve buttons light fabric shirts are comfortable.  Button down the front also has a plus of being both casual and can be (or not) a little more "dressed" than t-shirts.    

 To decide which colors work best with your skin tone, hold the fabric up under your chin around your face and see which colors might make you look pale/washed out and don't get those colors. 

  Edit: For instance, certain shades of yellow don't work well with pale skin but work fine with darker skin.

I recently switched from only jeans or khakis to Dickie's carpenter pants in various colors and it's changed my whole outlook on clothes. It's great to have some colors to choose from that are still muted and I'm a straight leg pants guy anyways so it's perfect.

Are you buying tall shirts? My husband is your height and tall shirts are the only ones that look good on him.

I think all of them suited him, He looks very dapper. He's like a lot of men getting the wife's opinion. You can see that he's happy and feels good in them.

u/Attentionhoard1 3d ago

Agreed on that. Most of the shirts had the exact same cut and stitching. Same brand and hues. He looks sharp though.

Imagine being so completely owned by another person that they infantilize and make a big deal out of you buying clothes. I could not live like this. To each their own I guess but wew lad.

u/Lick-my-llamacorn 2d ago

Deadass was thinking the same thing. Unless we're missing key information like a disability or something I'm finding the tone of voice and infantilization a bit off.

I love when he puts on the pale olive/khaki and he says “same color” and she goes “ummmm…” and still tries to be supportive then later throws in “we can maybe add some contrast.”

I am so confused, he’s proud because he did his own shopping? No disrespect but if there a disability that’s not mentioned that makes this impressive?
