Men's Capris or Men's Long Shorts

Have you taken a look at men's fashions lately? The newest men's fashion fad among the young and not-so-young men in the Baltimore area are being called "long shorts" or "men's capris". Do yourselves a favor women of the world - pray this fad doesn't make it out of the Baltimore area.

Just what has become of men's fashions over the past several years? Can there be a worse use of extra fabric yardage? For years now I've looked around at younger men and wondered how they can be comfortable covering themselves up in yards and yards of fabric. In 100 degree heat you'll see them in voluminous tee shirts and pants dragging on the ground. And are those really horizontal stripes I see on that shirt? Ugh - that guy looks like he's 50 inches around. I also wonder "don't they have mirrors?"

Who I really feel sorry for is all the single young and not-so-young women out there. Consider this, men want us women to wear nothing. They want to know what they're getting. They want to see and in the case of some, have the world see what a woman has to offer figure wise. Women have complied with belly baring tops and lower than low rise jeans. Young women show as much skin as polite society allows, and this is how men thank us?

Now young women are faced with men covered up in extra yards of fabric, with tee-shirts passing down mid thigh, or lower and now shapeless pants covering down to mid calf. So I wonder this...just what do these men have to offer? Am I looking at a Pillsbury Dough Boy or are those rock hard abs you're hiding under there?

It looks to me that they're dressing to cover 20 unwanted pounds. Something many young, and not-so-young women do, and have done for many years, and it's not appealing at all.

Come on boys, shed those unwanted pounds of extra fabric yardage and show us what you've got!!!
