Would you date a girl who wears men’s band tees?

I don't think I would date a girl who doesn't have a good taste in music.

Depends on the band

Huh?

If a hot chick were wearing a T shirt advertising my favorite band would I be turned off by her if the T shirt were a for men size T shirt?

Of course not. The shirt might look a bit large on you, but it wouldn't look transgender.

Presumably you would be wearing it with jeans, and would already look casual anyway.

I wouldn't "date" a woman who wore mens' band t-shirts - or any other t-shirts, for men or women. T-shirts are underwear, to be worn underneath proper, buttoned shirts. I have hardly more respect for people who wander about the city wearing t-shirts (whatever their sex) than I would for people who do the same in pyjamas.

T-shirts were originally underwear, yes...but their purpose has expanded over the decades.

Not too many people look askance at people wearing all but the most blatant undershirts.

Band t-shirts are usually not used as undershirts.

Their purpose has extended in practical terms, but only, as far as I can see, to accommodate those who see fastening half a dozen buttons as "uncomfortable" - lazy people, in other words.

Wearing t-shirts as one's outermost layer of clothing screams an apathetic lack of concern for one's appearance, except when there's a utilitarian reason for it (for going to the gym, doing the gardening, etc.) When they also have tacky rock band logos printed on them, it screams "attention seeker" to boot.

My generation just doesn't seem to understand that the key to dressing well is subtlety; when you have to reveal everything about yourself on a t-shirt, before the other person has even met you, it's the ultimate proof that, nine times out of ten, your personality is hollow and you probably aren't worth getting to know.

I like well-dressed people. I think being well-dressed provides one with a better presentation than otherwise.

I dress fairly well myself----but rarely in a jacket and tie. More like button-down/polo shirts and chinos.

I don't agree that everyone who wears, say, only a t-shirt and shorts in the summer "lacks subtlety," or is hollow and superficial. Especially when they only wear this sort of attire outside of relatively formal situations.

It's mostly a matter of "taste," really.

Most bands don't sell enough T shirts to offer T shirts in women's cuts. Many only offer large men's sizes.

Abba and Taylor Swift do offer women's T shirts but most bands can only dream about that sort of commercial success.

I see too many people, men and women alike, dress as absolute slobs when going out in public, even to nice places. People don't have to dress fancy all the time, just decently. I feel better when I wear a dress when going out to an event.

I'm surprised bands still make tShirts. I thought hoodies were what's popular now & replaced band tShirts.

Coming from someone who is very fashion oriented I can reassure you that not all tees are tacky....



I managed to make both of those look stylish

In today's society women lost all feminine qualities they dress pants instead of dresses and in general dress like man or feminist lesbians.

Wait....you mean they lost boobs and vaginas?

If you judge people so harshly just for wearing t-shirts, than perhaps it is you with the hollow personality. Also, usually if someone has a band on their shirt its because they really enjoy that band, they may have even gotten it at a concert. If that earns a little attention from another fan of that band...who the hell cares?

I listen to a lot of metal and have gone to quite a few concerts. The vast majority of metal bands don't really have the sort of commercial success someone like Taylor Swift might but you could drown in the T-shirts and other merch metal bands sell.

Most make t-shirts and hoodies, gotta have something to wear under the hoodie...and also if it gets too hot out for the hoodie.
