It's hard to make that look good.

But the thick black glasses w/the tape in the middle??? Now those are hot.

Sorry for the thread hijack kitso!
So the consensus is.....huge baggy pants, yes or no??

sounds like you need to be posting on cash$$$'s trendy bisexual thread :D

and NO to the huge baggy pants

KS Prop 361 will outlaw the showing of men's under garments in public, but ladies feel free to show your thongs out the back of you low rises anytime :D

Bikers do not wear do-rags. They wear headwraps. They don't even wear bandanas most of the time -- they have a specially fashioned piece of cloth that looks nothing like a bandana when it's off. And I know this because my friend's mom owns a company that sells biker apparel and I worked there one summer, so do not question my knowledge on this subject. :p

Sure, bandanas go across the spectrum of cultures, but the term "do-rag" is specifically associated with "ghetto" culture. You can't separate the "bling bling" from the black, because they are automatically linked in most people's eyes. And no, saying you don't find the "bling bling" attractive is not necessarily racist -- I certainly don't think it's all that hot when guys have got their pants pulled down to their knees -- but a ridiculous attack where you make fun of something that is clearly associated with one race is verging on it. It's really not all that far from saying "People who wear kimonos and eat sushi are really stupid. They should be wearing khakis and eating hamburgers like me."

I think it's hilarious when the same people who complain about "everything on GC turning into a race issue" are the ones who bring up things that are obviously race issues.

And I agree with Jules: wear what you want. People who wear labels are no better than those who don't, and vice versa. Isn't it great when we've got the non-label-wearers feeling superior to the label-wearers because they "are individuals" and the label-wearers feeling superior to the non-label-wearers because they are "in style"? And then toss in the people who think they're better because they're wearing Lilly Pulitzer instead of Abercrombie, Seven jeans instead of FUBU, etc. Seriously, how petty can we get?

I also agree with her that nerd glasses are hot.

Sounds like the best quote I ever heard- Never forget: you're unique.....just like everyone else.
And that is why we girlfwiends!!!!

that's what i was thinking they were. if so, one of my guy friends has a pair and he looks so cute in them!

She might be talking about those. But I like the thinner glasses, if I'm going to wear glasses. I've worn contacts for 19 years :eek: and am reluctant to go back.

I'm glad that one summer spent working in a bike outfitters store has made you and expert on all things biker and qualifies you to speak on behalf of all bikers.

I spent one summer volunteering at a Boy's and Girl's club in Bryan, Texas, does that make me an expert on AfAm youth? i think some of the posters on GC would be quick to say Hell No. I have SEEN bikers wearing what i call do-rags, what others call bandanas.

There is a HUGE difference between a Kimono and hip hop gear. When the slave traders were bringing the slaves over to the New World were they chasing men and women wearing FUBU or sagging jeans? No. A kimono is a traditonal way of dress, bling bling is an amalgamation of different styles and fashion trends that is shared equally amongst American youth. If i had said, traditional African dress is dumb, and i don't like it, then THAT would have been a similar statement.

KS 361 times i knew this thread would go this way, not because i wanted it to, but because we can't have a convo like this w/o something playing the race card

I'm not being naive.

I started this ENTIRE thread as a joke, not as a discussion of fashion. I gave it a name similar to the FAT like me thread that we were having fun on, and subsequently was locked.

So, in order to make my point i named it PHat like me. To continue the ruse, i posted about not liking the hip hop fashion. the first thing about race on this thread was when i mentioned, 'lets see how long it takes for someone to take this (harmless) thread and turn it into a race issue."

and, y'all proved my point. from now on i'll just post about white bread and gordon lightfoot. Oh wait, the canadians may start in on me next

Kitso
KS 361 times i'm done with this topic.
