I can wear a dress to work and nobody criticizes me. I’d be really sad if I had to wear pants all the time, they’re just not as comfortable. Let’s normalize pretty dresses for dudes!

Some workmates and I petitioned our boss for the return of 70's office shorts over the course of one hot summer, to no avail.

70s? Those are just summer work clothes in Australia.

Oh man I wish, I was stuck in shoe length cotton blend for three years of my life and I dreaded February coming around

But they’re so classy and adorable! Your boss is a monster.

That what happens when the shorts are too short

[–] TheRedSpade@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Those are some ridiculously short shorts, especially on the left. How is he not hanging out the bottom?

Don't get me started on shorts. Modern shorts which go down to the knee - what's the point?!

Oh look, I know what hell will be like now.

There were so many adventurous men's fashions in the 70s - I like watching old shows like Columbo partly because of that. It feels like we lost a lot going into the 80s and beyond in that respect - I'm glad to see men trying more diverse clothing now.

Those only work if you also have the 1970s sexual-predator combover and/or pornstache as well as a The Mask necktie.
