Sign of the Apocalypse #452 - Mantyhose

10/29/2008

First they threw guyliner at us. Then came man skirts. Not kilts. Skirts. For men. Now, as if marketers are fighting to strip us of the last vestiges of our masculinity, they hit us with Mantyhose.

Yeah, mantyhose. Panty hose for men. Did we ask for this? Was there an outcry from guys who had cold calves? Yes, I remember Joe Namath wearing them back in the 70's, but that was sports related. And he was Broadway Joe. He also wore fur coats, but he won a damn Super Bowl. This is just flat out wrong. (Although I will admit, that for a second, I thought the tribal ones in the middle pic looked kind of cool. But only for a second.) I believe the only time it's acceptable for a guy to ever wear pantyhose is over his head, while robbing a bank.

There's even a website, e-MANcipate, dedicated to "the acceptance of male pantyhose as a regular clothing item". I think the man skirts had a better chance.

That is disgusting and I hope we never see them in public.

Ha.. that's pretty funny. Then again it gives you a good excuse to have panty hose on you when a store is robbed near your location..

Well, it will make it easier to find a "gay best friend" when looking for a boyfriend. Cuts out the middle man.

I'm not one to discriminate, i think everybody is equal reguardless of race, age, gender, or sexual orientation... however if i ever saw anybody wear these in person, I would be obligated to kick their ass into last week.

I'm a woman and I really don't see the point of this. I don't find pantyhose all that wonderful or comfortable...just a necessary part of modern life. Not like something I'd wish on someone who didn't HAVE to wear them.

if a blind date of mine showed up mantyhose, I'm not sure I'd be able to hold my laughter long enough to go on the date with him.

Come on people! I have hairy legs and would love to use the mantyhose to cover them up so I don't scare away any dates.

Really then, pantyhose? I mean, I could almost accept guys wearing stockings for the warmth factor, but pantyhose is intended to give you girly looking legs. This is an affront to manhood, an abomination of taste and self respect.

UNACCEPTABLE.

Um. I'm gay and I even think that that's just way too far. Even women don't really wear hose anymore. Why would guys start? What's the appeal?
