Truth is (IMHO) we ALL play "dress up." Ever notice how it seems ALL 20's-
30's guys have 3-4 days beard growth, hair that looks like it was combed with an egg beater? Jeans, sandals or skateboard/Nike shoes?
The one that REALLY cracks me up since I heard George Carlin's take on it is the guy wearing the cowboy hat, boots, Western shirt with pearl buttons and big belt buckle. We got a lot of horse ranches around, do we? There's a real big NEED for cowpunchers now?
Its all posing. Applies to me too. I work in the heavy civil construction industry in management. We all wear jeans or Dockers, steel toed work shoes, golf type shirts except on Friday's when every male pretty much wears a Hawaiian shirt. I think we all do it.
Incidentally and in closing....which of you 20 year old guys will admit to wearing the up-in-the-middle, Cupie doll haircuts? I almost want to point and laugh out loud when I see that. Trust me, you're gonna just LOVE pictures of you wearing that when you're 40 or 50!
