You tell em. More men should be so avidly men. Fuck all those oil of olay body washes with that goofy loufah ball. Real men shower with ground pumice mixed with motor oil. And fuck boots with "girly cuban" heels. Real men wear Redwings and Timberlands! And fuck those guys on Vespas, scooters are for fags! Nothing but Harley D in this house! And a fucking Toyota Prius? FUCK YOU I've got my HUMMER, BITCHES! I'm A MAN, DAMMIT! Now where is that ball gag and anal lube...

I remember a story in the Sunday LA Times going on about 10 years ago about just this situation. There and then it was known as 'girl pants', or 'gp'. I remember it all very well. Scrawny guys in spray-painted on jeans, really often they weren't long enough to reach their ankles. I said I remember it well, not fondly.

Interestingly, the reverse, peculiarly is OK. I know J.crew and others have been selling Boyfriend shirts/jackets to women for years. I'm not saying that this is a new phenomena ... This is not a one off thing ... like hey my buddy wears women's jeans We're talking about a large apparel maker with huge distribution that now caters to this aesthetic. Maybe 10 years ago, it's a risky decision to associate these men's clothing with women's apparel. Why? Because it's taboo, because we want our men to look like men. Perhaps the US society have become more mature and accepting of men who prefer the slim, androgynous look.

Slim jeans have been around since the 1960's or before. Men were wearing women jeans back in the 80's. I don't see anything new here except Levis decided to name them a certain way now.

You sound like a guy who 'works out' in the cardio room.
