The Sun Is Shining For The First Time In Forever; We're Gay! Fagz Club Spring 2010

I am actually wearing Levi 511 32(?)x30 (i think) in jet black. But after wearing them so much they have faded a bit. Planning to re-dye though.

also wtf, 32x36?? am gonna start calling you Lara Stone

No I think they're 30x30 or 30x32. I forget. It all depends on the brand, or even style. I bought them after I tried on another pair of more denim-y 30x30 511s that were waaaay too small.

the bigger the Lauren logo, the better imo

this is so otm -- i remember swooning when they first released their big logo polos (heh)

agree with elmo here. old navy is crap but whenever i go to n. america i always buy about 10 trile packs of underwear. it's the only place that does a nice but of tighty whitey that doesn't break the bank

triple*

& really, who cares about a&f's clothes?! or how horrible their ceo is (horrible) cuz they consistently feature amazingly hot guys so i think it's a fair trade off

i buy hanes briefs from target

wearing my black 501s today lol

I'd gladly chop at least two inches out of my shins. It would make shopping for pants way easier.

I'll go to Mattachine if I'm not tired, and assuming I stick around after work to go to The Prowler at Film Forum @ 7:40 that night.

32w, I hate youse.

hells yeah

that's like all i wear. tho i've been getting into boxer briefs lately.

Mhm.

i meant boxer briefs, my bad

oh yeah, totally woulda pegged you as a boxer briefs guy, i was a little surprised

i actually think plain old boxers are reallllllly hot too, but with the wrong pair of pants it's too much fabric

i have two pairs of levis that i wear (one blue, one black) and maroon corduroys that i wear when the mood strikes

Sad that Levis cords seem to top out at 32" inseams these days.

levis trouser jeans are a really good investment, too, if you're looking for something a little less casual than jeans, but not dressy

I need new jeans, but today I'm wearing interview pants. So I can earn more and buy any clothes whatsoever.

!! interview today? break a leg

My problem exactly. Also: I have no ass.

omg since i went up 2 pants sizes last year i HAVE AN ASS. i am so excited. i've never had one before.

well, I'm not sure if it's going to be better than what I have... since my current job may transform completely next Monday. I'm always confident I will make the wrong decision.

xxp

Take it out for a walk, surm.

boxers are the worst, jeez

Yeah, I don't care how boxers look. They feel really bunchy and annoying on me.

i love a boy in boxers. it's so guy-y

also they're just so old school and cute !

I think you have to have thighs the size of Cheyenne Jackson's for them to really look flattering, but that's just me.

ramzi is partly correct, but a guy's guy in boxer briefs is actually hotter because of the expectations it defies, so boxers are kind of a lose-lose all around

Before I watch Brothers later, I must know: do Gylly and Tobey frenk kiss?

Trouser jeans--I think that is what mine are. They're jean-ish with a hint of strech but don't feel like denim, exactly. I wonder what kind of guy I seem like (briefs, boxbriefs, boxers, nothing?)

I'm simple and old-fashioned: anytime someone can SEE your boxers, they should be OFF!

I know for a fact that at least one gaylxor wears boxers exclusively.

around town?

on the ground

not this one! xp

I agree with most boxers complaints, 'cept they permit a certain sensation of... freedom.

^^ also, easy access is a big plus

keep that note for tabes when he returns

what I haven't worn in awhile is my boxing trunks! I was gonna spar with a guy this weekend but had to cancel, too much else to do.

...

haha -- i love how morbs has slowly revealed himself to be an ex-stand up comedian & now a boxer

for some reason i'd never realised they were called boxing trunks

nah he's a lightweight ;)

I've mentioned this before! I am no more a boxer than you, just someone who has made a stab at it (and usually gotten clobbered).

Surely I'm not the only one? Jesse said he used to like to glove up and fight.

Haha. Go figure that no one here figured out why McBride hates A&F. He's not necessarily against branding. Only mentions the CEO in the capacity of him having turned a struggling company into a very successful one. Doesn't complain about the fit of their clothes, although he does accuse their clothes of being very ordinary, fashionable logo aside. He doesn't really complain about fagz who wear A&F, although he does have some interesting, somewhat damning insight about them.

The problem with A&F, and this is something I've felt since high school, but could never quite articulate, is that they are selling whiteness. McBride specifically contrasts this Ralph Lauren, who, yes, are selling an upper middle class lifestyle, but one attainable to anyone who can afford it. A&F regularly discriminates against non-white employees, with store managers forced to fire them if higher-ups discover them working at their stores, and usually only able to hire them to begin with if they fit a very rigid look that avoids any ethnic cultural signifiers, as articulated by their highly race-coded company policy. They were subject to a class-action lawsuit over this.

The insight about (white) A&F fagz is that, one step removed from the Old Boys' Club, their purchase of whiteness subconsciously allows them to feel included in the Old Boys' Club which might otherwise deny them because of their sexuality. He contrasts them with gay Republicans, who are more cognizant of their one-step-away status and decide to claim the benefits of the Good Ol' Boys for themselves. As for non-white A&F fagz, they just have their shit even more twisted.

i went to an A&F store for the first time a couple of weeks ago (looking for a tie), and it blew my mind. it was like walking into a nightclub... a nightclub full of clothes! the lighting was so, so dim and the music was so, so loud. and there was this fucking awful smell, like cheap cologne, being pumped out of the aircon. i could actually smell it on my clothes after i walked out.

A&F clothes don't fit me and are really dull to boot
