    No. I don’t.

    I find it depressing that young men feel forced to conform to societal and corporate expectations, rather than developing their own sense of style and buying the clothes they actually want to wear because they’re old enough to have run out of fucks to give and lack the confidence to take risks.

    I get that in your twenties and thirties, you’re at the bottom of the corporate ladder, but live a little.

    I mean, imagine if the only ice cream flavour was vanilla. That’s what that sub was often like. I mean, it’s fashion. Wear something fun or exciting, rather than dressing like an NPC all the time. You also need to live outside the office and you’re not losing a promotion because your chinos were the wrong colour.

        And I have zero problem with that. Quite the opposite.

        Wear full tech wear. Wear a bright orange tracksuit and peacock the shit out of life. Wear a turqoise gown with gold bangles and flounce around like you’re Jesus.

        But a lot of what that sub was about, wasn’t that. It was often about arbitrary rules and stuffy outfits.
