Oh definitely, haven't you heard of the women deep in war torn Africa, who only want a guy in a Sportscoat and Jeans, though they've never seen a guy in one they secretly want their husbands to wear a nice respectable suit. And what about Rupunsal?! They say she wanted a Prince or something silly like that but all she wanted was a rugged looking modern man.

Infact as far back as time itself women have pined for men in clothes shaped in a specific way using a soft fabric, evolution has weeded out the dumb weak ones (IE guys not wearing jeans) and left only the ones that do, it's natural selection at it's finest baby!

Or if you prefer you can imagine that God-did-it, wanting only the sporty type and absolutely loathing any other kind of "man" I'm sure it's mentioned somewhere in the Bible. Something like "Jesus 06:66".

I tend to go for comfort these days....

Comfort's the way to be, if everyone dressed comfortably the world would be a better place.

Drama is much better than
comfort. I get better reactions,
and feel better about myself.

You can create drama through comfort. If you are relaxed in situations where someone expects you to get excited... well they get pretty upset.

Or if you smile contently when someone is getting frustrated... the right person may try to harm you...

The goal is to let the drama fall on others.

But you can use your lack of drama to really surprise people. If you are comfortable and content normally, the moment that you spring forward with overwhelming emotion... no one is expecting it, and it can be very intense. Like someone who never swears gets really ticked off and starts dropping f-bombs...

Wow, that's the first time I ever heard a girl say she would never notice a shoe. Most of my girl friends not only notice any shoe a guy wears (as well as what other women wear), they can actually tell what kind of a guy he is by the shoes he wears. And strangely enough, they're usually right on the mark.

That's it! I'm never going to wear shoes again... no woman's going to read my mind...

She can call me a hobbit for all I care...

michel: could you use your intelligence connections to find out what well-kept (i.e. clean, regularly polished, but well worn in etcetera) leather boots mean? the ankle-high military type...

I'd also like to know the answer.

I look forwards to the aspie equivalent of Shale...

Reading this thread, I feel as dressed as a tailors dummy!

From a (self-diagnosed) aspie man...

To keep it simple:---

Before dating, have a bath or shower. Wash your smelly bits and your hair also. Deodorants is optional (I have never used deodorants and dislike the smell of it on other people). Maybe, a little aftershave or perfume helps. If you don't know what perfume /after shave to wear best not wear it. Natural FRESH body odour is SEXY (but not two days old sweat).

Wear smart casual clothes, as if you were going to a party. Jeans? - may ber worn, if smart and "cool" , not ripped or gone through a gardening job. Adults should wear brown or black leather shoes, not trainers (sneakers). Teenagers, trainers would be optional, but only if its cool to wear trainers. No sandals!

I'm cool enough to throw away Gucci shoes.

Calandale, you're looking better already! If they're size 9, throw them in my direction!

Oh, man, are those military boots ever cool! When I left New-York City to go to California, I was depressed and angry, and I left behind a locker full of the most amazing clothes and accessories I got over time. Amongst them was a pair of insanely sexy black leather lace up high-boots I wore with my motorcycle policeman's black leather pants, a Sam Brown belt, and a leather shirt.

I miss being that wild, I'd love to wear that kind of stuff again...

"Well-kept" means you maintain the boots in the style they're meant to have. Discipline.

Dating aside I noticed if I take care of my apperance I get treated a lot more respectfully.

Last year at a post grad class the teacher mentioned you should'nt " Judge a book by it's cover." He and 90 percent of the class were tatooed , pierced, dyed hair, and had looked like they raided a "Hot Topic" shipment.
I said " Actually most people put a lot of thought into thier apperance, So I disagree." That did'nt make me popular.
I think people SHOULD be allowed to dress the way they want but then you can't throw a fit when somene makes a first impression based on that. Goth, Nerd,Slut, Homo, there are consequences.
I think my plastic Star Trek phaser would make a great belt accessory. However I know there would be a social price to pay. Especially since I'm 35. So I just wear it around the house.
I guess I couls wear it to a Fantasy convention but those people look like weirdos . . .

yay michel! finally someone who likes that kind of stuff. i usually get looked won upon for the combination of army boots and cargo trousers. but then, people mock me for tucking my t-shirt into my trousers, too.

just out of curiosity: where the hell did you get a sam brown belt? im searching up and down here for one to wear with black army pants, white dress shirt, black tie and old style wehrmacht boots.

Soles were shot. BUT, for better shoes, I
get them resoled.
