    Are they still called that, or are you showing your age?
    In the early and mid 90s I used to workout in wife beaters working the biceps on the flat bench. Power racks were not yet that popular.

    On the beach, sure. To the pool, okay. Doing yard work, or hanging around at home, that's fine, maybe even sexy. Wal-mart, maybe. Anywhere else, probably not.

    If you're built like a tank, don't wear the top.

    Don't give a chit what anyone thinks. I wear tank tops in any setting I deem appropriate.

    I think the tanks are alright but I prefer a nice tightly fitted Tee where the arms are bulging out of the sleeves and you can see the definition in the shoulders through it <3

    Yea, I don't consider "wife beaters" as the tank tops I am talking about. That's underwear.

    /\/\ I love a fitted t on guys just like that too. ;) If you have the body for them and this goes for women too...if there's a jiggle in the upper arms...nope not yet wearing a tank is like a badge of honor you worked for those guns now you get to show them off... whoo wooo! ;)

    Wear what you want, when you want, how you want.

    If you look like Zac Efron, Brad Pitt, Channing Tatum in a tank, expect me to stare and look goofy.

    I do have to say as much as I like the whole fitted T's a nice tank that isn't hanging off your body with very minimal material can look very good.. Perfect example can be found on musclegood_fatbad now that's sexy!

    I wear whatever the hell I want. If you like it, great. If you don't, feel free to roll your eyes and judge me. :smile:

    OP, if you wanna wear a tank, go for it. If people don't like it, they can take a hike.

    My favorite wardrobe consists of a tank and jeans. It is what it is.

    I know and I do wear what I want. It was just for more of a fun discussion. And FYI, you my dear, can wear whatever you want whenever you want and you won't get any complaints from this guy ;)

    I'm probably going to want to show off my arms when they get bigger but I can't picture myself in a tank top. I'm the insecure type anyway so I'd probably just assume everyone is laughing at me in their heads.

    I was like that, too. And thought I would be forever. The better I look though, the easier it gets.

    I think a man should know how to spell wear first.

    Yes, I don't know how to spell "wear". It wasn't just a typo at all. I actually don't know how to spell the word. Thanks for making me look it up in the dictionary. I am now smarter because of you. You feel better now?
