Question for all young stylish men

i hate the fact that this thread implies that there are socially determined standards for being 'stylish' which automatically alienate feminine/androgynous men0

Here's a very stylish older heterosexual man who rocks nail polish, occasionally wears clothes more often associated with women's wear and also happened to run 43 marathons in 51 days :happy:
Eddie Izzard?? I love that guy!!
In other ponderings...
Why stab someone just because they decorate themself in a way you find disagreeable? i mean, it's not a vulgar tshirt or threatening visible tattoo. it's not even as permanent as hair dye.
Why judge someone so harshly for something so trivial? why not just understand that we can't all possibly like the same things, and eventually you'll run into something you hate that someone else loves, or vice versa, and there's nothing wrong with that. that's just how is. there is nothing 'wrong' with a dude painting his nails, just like there's nothing 'wrong' with a gal shaving her head. you can dislike, but that's still just your opinion.
Here's my opinion:
fashion = what everyone else is wearing
"fashionable" = a broad segment of other folks would say you look good
style = what you like to wear; what you think looks good on yourself
"stylish" = you look good, regardless of whether or not you are "fashionable".
trend = a microcurrent of fashion and other social behaviors
"trendy" = a broad segment of other folks can see you are trying to fit in
if you want to overlay preferences based on gender/sexual identity roles onto that matrix, go ahead. i won't even go there. that's where it gets so messy as to be unclassifiable anymore these days.
i'm in for variety.
i'm in for iconclasts.
i'm in for men who aren't hung up on being manly.0 -
No, but I've seen older men doing it, like business kinda men.0
