I never could stand to wear any clothes that feel tight or constricting around any part of my body. I can't tolerate anything around my neck, including turtlenecks, scarves, or high collars. I always hated the feeling of tights, nylons, or pantyhose on my legs and feet. I can only wear cotton socks. I'd wear sandals and flip flops all year round if the climate allowed it. There are certain synthetic materials that just give me the chills if I try to wear them. I also don't like having a lot of bulk on me. The only jewelry I wear is my cross necklace. I do manage to find nice clothes that are cotton-based that I can wear.

I must have that sensory disintegration disorder or whatever it's called.

I can pretty much wear anything. Though I will never be caught dead in a pear of flip flops. Guys should NEVER wear flip flops!

Please tell me, Kristen, that if you had a date in July that you would not wear flip flops. :lol:

Jewelry, believe it or not. It's even getting to the point where I have a hard time wearing my watch now -- I probably have some type of metal allergy on my skin. The only metal I wear these days is in my ears - no problems with that. My earlobes are stretched to 0ga and 00ga (I'm going to stretch them both to 1/2" - I'm not far off now), and I wear glass jewelry in it... no problems with that.

I'm not able to wear anything that doesn't stretch in the chest, or has a shelf bra for little boobies in it - I wear a bra size that people rarely hear of, and I NEED room/support for mine... Grrrrr...

And that's about it, really.

I once made a joke that if I was taking a girl out on a date and she was wearing flip flops that I would reufuse to take her out. :lol: I would not go that far, but I think flip flops are very unattractive.

- turtlenecks - i have a short neck

- printed shirts - i'm short so most prints are overwhelming and i end up looking like a cartoon character

- i hate anything clingy because it shows all your faults. i usually wear semi fitted, things with empire waists or babydolls


- lowrise pants - even when i was thin i could not wear these. i do not want the world seeing my undies!



- wrap tops or faux wrap tops - my bust is fuller and the wrap top always pulls open and exposes my bra

This is what I have to say about thongs - HIGHLY OVERRATED (not to mention HIGHLY UNCOMFORTABLE)!!! :eek: Low-riding pants - ugh. Flip flops and ultra skinny jeans are not for me, either. Tell the truth, any type of open toe shoe I won't wear (except for a very attractive pair of strappy black heels I've owned for years).

I never wear any type of hat, other than a stocking cap in winter. Baseball caps look ridiculous on my head; I'm not sure why. I don't have a huge head or anything, it just must not be made for caps. :lol:

I also never wear short pants. Yes, I know it's unorthodox. I just grew up thinking that guys looked odd in shorts (and honestly, I still do). No one told me that, it's just something I always thought. And yes, I've gotten relentlessly kidded about it ever since. Regardless, it's jeans for me, all year round. ;)

Low-Rise Pants- When you're my size around the waist, you need a butt to hold them up. LuLu has no butt, ergo, LuLu does not do low-rise. ;)

Thong Underwear- Who wants to floss their butt? :crazy:

High Heels- Sure, they look hot, but they're a bitch to wear, especially when you're 5' 9" on your own.

Panty Hose- Make mine thigh highs, thanks.

Men love seeing women in a pair of heels. Its not just because its sexy, but also because its classy. Just like I'm sure a woman on a date would perfer to see a man in a nice dress shirt than t-shirt. Wear high heels on a date and you can't go wrong. Of course, I'm not saying that you should start wearing them around the house or go for a walk in them. :lol:

FLAT SHOES: Flip Flops, those ballet slippers (that are now the rage) flats. I need HIGH HEELS!!!

DRESSES: I feel uncomfortable in them. All the dresses I do own, I wear them over a pair of pants or jeans.

BRAS: Rarely wear them; they are so uncomfortable. Thank God, I am not too big (in the bust area)

CAPPED SLEEVED SHIRTS: This style is not flattering on my arms. I usually go long sleeved or sleeveless.

PANTS, (JEANS, Etc.) That are shorter than a 30 inseam; I love a style of pant, to be anywhere from a 31 to a 35 inseam (very flattering)

Wow, nice to see I'm not the only one!! I haven't worn a bra in a few years!! I'm not too big up front, either, but I do wear one of those string tops with the "bra" in it. I saw a few at the store, liked them. They were sooo comfortable, and they "held me up", so I would wear those instead of bras. I don't feel right wearing those by themselves, so I always wear a shirt over it. One plus side is I can change a shirt anywhere in public!!

As a heterosexual,white male there are certain clothes ,or so-called accessories,that I believe just don't look right on men and women.As far as I'm concerned,I truly believe that women shouldn't wear outrageously large and/or clunky earrrings that could end up doing serious esthetic harm,or damage, to their ears.Fat women have no tangible business,of any kind ,wearing tight-fitting clothes of any kind.That same thing applies to males as well.If women and (unfortunately)men should insist on wearing earrings,these should be very small,or tiny.Unless you are an actor, portraying a pirate,I see absolutely no reason for any man,to wear an earring ,or two ...or,four if you're into more.

This is going to make me come across as sexist,as all get up,yet I believe that the only people,outside of little kids ,who should be wearing so-called flip-flop sandals should be women.Outside of beach wear,flip-flops just look too damned dainty and foolish,for any man to wear.Regular strap-fashioned sandals or prperly-ventilated summer footwear would be more appropriate for men,in this case,than flip-flops.

Since I grew up in a certain time and environment in which ,tatoos,were either linked to former,or present,military people-or convicts,former or present,suffice to state that I never had much love for those,either.I really hate it when I notice some poor devil,out in public that has resorted to sporting such designs,or images,all over his or her backs,or worse,all over their faces and /or heads.

Finally,I must state my distaste for excessive body-piercing on either men or women.Individuals that do that sort of thing look as though they belong in the ranks of Pinhead(the upper-echelon demon from the ''Hellraiser'' horror movie series).

The funny thing about high heels is that the entire reason I've heard for women wearing them is to make their legs appear more shapely, presumably to appeal more to men Personally, I don't find heels all that appealing on a woman.

I'd rather see them wear something comfortable. Whenever I see a woman in heels, I'm never thinking "Oooh, hot!". I'm usually thinking "Geez, that must hurt like hell." :(

I'm trying to think of an analogous piece of clothing that men would wear that would appeal to women but be uncomfortable. I'm drawing a blank. I guess the closest thing I can come up with is lifts to make a guy seem taller (short guys really have a rough time with ladies, I think; not that, err, 'medium sized' guys have it much better, lol!), but I don't think those are uncomfortable or at least I've never heard so.

I've heard of guys wearing "male girdles" to hide a large stomach; I imagine that's a bit uncomfortable. For all my imperfections, I doubt that's something I'll ever have to wear, though.

I don't care for those, either, but I will wear them when necessary because I know the occasion demands it. If I am participating in a wedding or funeral, I'll wear them but if I'm just attending I usually just wear something nice but more casual.

Both a suit and tie have a very constricting feeling that tends to wear on me, and I think, a lot of guys. Plus you always have to worry about getting the suit dirty or stained, lol.

I agree. But it might be because here in Southern California, sports jerseys are sometimes considered "gang" attire. In fact, some public schools prohibit students from wearing any kind of professional sports team clothing (jerseys, hats, jackets) because it's often worn by Los Angeles gang members.
