Because I'm fat and ugly. I don't want to see it and trust me you don't want to see it either.

Trojan soldiers said the same thing about a big wooden horse outside their walls.

It's all about attitude.

I got a belly and I get a lot of positive attention when I rock a crop top.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's it from other men applauding you?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

Men, women and everyone in between.

Also, crop tops kick ass in the summer. Breezy...

Understanding dryer settings.

Aside from my slab o'flab making people wish my top had not been cropped, those daddy dukes look like junk-crunchers.

Girl, step into any sports themed gay bar. We are still dressing like this.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago (2 children)

How does one find a sports themed gay bar? Asking for a friend.

Hang out with a gay rugby team, they’ll show you

Because I'd look like this:

I just realized that the examples in the meme leave out an important part of the ensemble: calf-high white tube socks with multicolor bands at the top.

If you're gonna rock it, rock it all the way.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

I don't have those, so that. That stops me from doing that.

The shape of my body.

We grew up watching those dudes get butchered in increasingly-grotesque ways by a diverse conglomeration of psychotic murderers and animals, both natural and supernatural.

I'm good with my plain black t-shirt that's long enough to serve as a dress because I'm fat and need uberlength shirts to make it over the curvature of my Moo Deng pregnancy and still have enough fabric left over to not leave me looking like I'm wearing a cummerbund made from pale hairy human skin.

Fat guy dress > being split vertically, starting at the willy, by an industrial saw because I unknowingly spent a summer afternoon in a swimming hole that once hosted a cruel gang of teenagers who pretended to befriend a lonely man with a deformity and subsequently caused him to drown in it by shoving him off the rocks into the water even though they knew he couldn't swim.

Wow, there’s a lot to unpack there. Cheers mate.

I work IT in a construction yard and dont like the oil and slurry shit getting on my thighs when I have to fix the internet in the wash bay. Weekends are fair game but I'm a twink not a hunk so the pull off is different.

Because those hunks never survived the movie.

I don't have a younger sister I have to share clothes with.

I don't want to look at my disgusting flesh-body and I'd rather nobody else saw it either. Rebuild me shiny and chrome, then we'll talk about showing off.

No way, this is like wearing the red shirt in Star Trek.

High fructose corn syrup

I dress like this in the summer as a nonbinary person

I don’t want to disappoint gay guys.

Gents, this is not for you; it’s for her. 🙂

not being a hunk, for starters... but also it looks uncomfortable

Your wife is the opposite of mine. She's always trying to get me to wear tighter, skimpier clothing. I'm a product of the 90s; I like my oversized t-shirts and baggy jeans, okay?

I'm from the 80's and nobody wants to see someone my age dressed like that.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

I have also traveled here from the 80's and I'm here to tell you one thing:

That sounds like their fucking problem. If that's all that is stopping you then you get your tiny gym shorts and crop top, friend.

Being the first or second victim is a pretty good disincentive

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

Self-respect mostly (at least what's left of it).

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

All those pockets too small to carry a phone.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

Because it’s considered “lewd” and “indecent” when I do it and I’m not allowed within 500 yards of schools anymore.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

I'm still traumatized by spandex being a thing when I was in primary school.

Gym was .... embarrassing.
