I just picked up a d-ring belt from, Robert Talbott in brown with a teal stripe.

Like this:

D-ring belts generally point to the right , because of the way you fasten them, at least in my experience.

I was wondering, if the way your d-ring belt hangs , is it a signifier of sexual persuasion?

Didn't you get the owners manual with your belt? It covers this subject in depth.

This is true. I went to school with a guy who wore one of those belts the wrong way once while out on the town and he was savagely raped because a gang of roving homosexuals thought he 'wanted it' based on his belt.

Serves him right, I say. He knew the D-ring belt rules.

Also, be careful around jelly bracelets. If you're wearing one and someone snaps it off you, you're then compelled to ******** with them.

It's funny you say this, as I spoke to the Robert Talbott co today , about this issue.

They are discontinuing this line of D-ring belts , due to unspecified problems.

Shhh. You'll invalidate the test results if you disclose the relevant criteria in advance!

Oops, sorry. Didn't know you were looking forward to seeing him model his belt w/out trousers

Wear it the wrong way in a club, and all the boys will want your khaki sack.
