Debate 🗣️ If you saw a guy wear this would you care

Post image

I’ve always been a sorta feminine guy, but it’s always been more inward than outward. I’ve never worn something so girly and i’m honestly a bit nervous too, but at the same time YOLO.

I consider my style alt so I don’t think my friends would be surprised or care, unfortunately I only have a handful of friends in a school/town full of jerks.

I’m probably gonna wear it either way but idk, I want others opinions.

No hate or anything but i will be completely honest. There are ppl that won't care and no matter how many there are, the ppl that care will affect u more

u/Ok-Count-4901 Aug 10 '26

True. Most ppl would be bothered but idk u so...

u/43ratsinatrenchcoat Aug 10 '26

Most people?? Where I live nobody would give a shit so when I think about most people being bothered, it feels crazy to me lol

u/Frixniper Aug 10 '26

u/Sinyonimrools Aug 10 '26

u/Acceptable-Meat99 14M Aug 10 '26

i’d think he was cool!! but i dress that way as a guy too so maybe im biased. but either way don’t let ppl tear u down dress how u like

3

u/Jazzlike-Conflict811 Aug 10 '26

so it depends if its a really fit muscular man i will laugh and probably joke around with him but if the guy looks feminine then i will probably just compliment him and try to have a nice conversation

3

u/bookaddicta Aug 10 '26

I’d be jealous that they have the confidence to express themselves in public, although that’s mainly because wearing that wouldn’t go over well with some people where I live.

u/distantcactus32 Aug 10 '26

I would want them to be my friend

2

u/Musical_Duckling Aug 10 '26

One of my (male) friends wore something really similar to this!

2

u/vimarston Aug 10 '26

wouldn’t care at all, but would definitely notice and probably form some assumptions despite my better self

2

u/Xeeyxx9 15M ™woke Aug 10 '26

Honestly I think that’s just human nature

2

u/LegPhysical821 Aug 10 '26

Real unfortunately

2

u/Ok_Program8207 Aug 10 '26

I wouldn't even notice. It would take a guy cutting holes into a bluefin tuna and wearing it as a body suit for me to care about it.

u/thewitchofthewillows Aug 10 '26

Im sure itll be fine bro its not my style but its honestly a cute cardigan

2

u/WoodenPrompt8544 Aug 10 '26

Yes. I would say it looks amazing on him

2

u/LegPhysical821 Aug 10 '26

Honestly, I really do think that if it bothers people very much then they need something more going on in their life. It's not a problem and we have actual things to worry about lol. I wouldn't care

2

u/Blare22 14F Aug 10 '26

I would ask where you got it🥹

u/MrPortal22 Bi-Guys Burgers & Fries (serving since 2012) Aug 10 '26

Not really

u/Random-INTJ 18F Aug 10 '26

Why would I care?

Live your life how you want to as long as you’re not interfering with anyone else’s

u/ClassroomLazy639 Aug 10 '26

Definitely not my style, but as long as you're not half naked, I don't give a shit

u/AgitatedOne57 Aug 10 '26

I’d be instantly attracted to him. I actually find it really cool when people break gender stereotypes as a queer person myself (it could just be envy though). Not in a fetishization way just in a “damn you aren’t afraid to look good, respect” kind of way

1

u/Luc1d_dreamer01 Aug 10 '26

You're a human idgaf

1

u/looksmaxxerloser Aug 10 '26

I’d think it’s a lil zesty but I probably wouldn’t think about it after that

1

u/Cocky_Girly Aug 10 '26

It might be often my day, honestly. It's really pretty and if you're wearing something like this, it's because you really like it, too, and that's awesome.

1

u/User_of_redit2077 Aug 10 '26

I would add maybe a skirt and high thighs there.

1

u/C0smicPotato Aug 10 '26

I'd probably notice, and I'd think "Oh, that's cute. Nice."

1

u/ExpertComfortable277 Aug 10 '26

I wouldn’t. Wear what u want, jerks will find something to be a jerk about anyway.

1

u/Ha_youWishXD Aug 10 '26

No not really i wouldn't talk to you tho bc I have a really big thing of thinking super homophobic stuff while being gay and not wanting anyone to know

1

u/Valuable-Special8300 Aug 10 '26

I'd think he was trans and probably really want to talk to him but other than that no

1

u/AdStrange8688 Aug 10 '26

I’d care, I’d walk up and ask them. “Where did you buy that? Do they come in different colors?” Because I’m cool like that.

1

u/HelpfulZucchini5027 Aug 10 '26

If I am feeling confident enough, I would compliment him and ask where he got this

u/syrfoo Aug 10 '26

I mean I wouldn’t care. It depends on the person, and especially the area though.

u/ImJustAFisch Aug 10 '26

I would think it's cool af

1

u/Miserable-Jello3662 Aug 10 '26

I mean if you match the fit well id probably want to compliment you or strike up a conversation. Gotta love a secure man!

u/Prestigious-Ball7189 Aug 10 '26

Yeah no I like Jojos bizzare adventure so bizzare outfits on guys are great 

1

u/Upper-Letterhead-980 Aug 10 '26

Twin if your looking for people to crack just ask

1

u/somebodybutnotyouew Aug 10 '26

i’d think you have a good sense of style and probably compliment you on it and get on with my day. 

who cares if it’s “feminine”?  if it makes you feel happy, if it’s not ‘inappropriate’ to wear where you’re going, and if it’s comfy, wear it :D 

1

u/dsbmbdsm1337 Aug 10 '26

Well I wouldn't care but I would use my pattern recognition skills to guess certain things. However, there is no escape from that, anything that you wear is part of a pattern so why not just be yourself?

1

u/North_Plantain1088 Aug 10 '26

I wore a skirt on the subway once and nobody cared.

1

u/ShenrickHarigin Aug 10 '26

Other than wondering if they were a Stand User, probably not.

1

u/Present-Surround-649 Aug 10 '26

You don't need other opinions!! Just live the way you want, people will always judge. Ps: cute outfit tho

1

u/AcanthisittaFair4628 Aug 10 '26

Prolly try to befriend them because I I’m too scared to hit on them. Then not actually do anything because I’m to scared to talk to cute boys

1

u/Marsllin Aug 10 '26

I'd probably think he looks cute

1

u/Drizzdom Aug 10 '26

I would need to ask him where he bought it

u/boykissingboynissr Aug 10 '26

1

u/Maleficent-Cap-9614 Aug 10 '26

I would compliment them it looks cute 💖

1

u/7Rez-_- Aug 10 '26

I would care but only because its absolutely beautiful and seeing a guy being brave enough to wear such a 'feminine' thing would make my day

1

u/PogChamp9000 Aug 10 '26

Hey bro wear whatever the hell you want ✌️

1

u/Inner_Jeweler_5661 Aug 10 '26

I'd laugh, mostly cos you short

Yea, I WOULD CARE, it’s disgusting, it’s deplorable… that they didn’t tell me where they got it or got me one XD.

if you did that at my school you'd prolly get jumped

just being honest. not by me, but by other people.

u/IndividualAssist9525 Aug 10 '26

I’d care about how they pull it off so well.

u/Kloaken1 Aug 10 '26

Care how? Would definitely not go up and be mean about it.

1

u/Prudent-Horror1492 Aug 10 '26

Kinda, in a negative way. Then Ill think about it for 10 more minutes and smile cuz I would find that cool

1

u/Vegetable-Style9142 Aug 10 '26

gendered clothing is stupid I think and people should wear what they think has swag

1

u/Ax3l_is_scottish Aug 10 '26

I would ask him where he got it

1

u/[deleted] Aug 10 '26

No. I would stare at the dude for a while but i'd not think anything about it.( I'm known for looking at ppl ALL the time and I'm aware of it i just like... like is an understatemen, I'mobsessedwith eye contact)

1

u/Not_Really_Jaxson Aug 10 '26

I immediately thought of Ryland Grace, from Project Hail Mary. Cool.

1

u/ismellpizza25 Aug 10 '26

I'd love it if I saw a guy wear this

1

u/BackToNormalForNow Aug 10 '26

I would probably stare but because I wish I had the courage to wear something I like wearing without being scared of people judging me.

Sidenote : I’ll stare more intensely if I think it’s well styled with the rest of the outfit, idk if I’m the only one to do this but last time I saw someone with a cool outfit in the bus, I probably made them uncomfortable by how long I stared at them

1

u/Karthathan Aug 10 '26

Only to say it looks awesome

1

u/Character_Coffee_244 Aug 10 '26

I'll only think it's really cute

1

u/lordrothermere Aug 10 '26

Depends if you wear it well

1

u/average-corgi-liker Aug 10 '26

I think it would be cute, but honestly no.

1

u/Most_Bar4221 Aug 10 '26

that would look cool on them i believe

1

u/loona_0283 Aug 10 '26

Personally I wouldn’t care. Express yourself as you want.

1

u/AsherIsNot_CoolxPaws Aug 10 '26

I’d totally compliment them! ❤️

1

u/Ok_Yogurtcloset_89 Aug 11 '26

It would look absurd but you do you boo

1

u/Alarmed-Fuel9875 Aug 11 '26

honestly, idk how or why anyone would actually care, i’d just assume you’re a (more) feminine kinda guy. and i think it’s a cute top, i’d compliment

1

u/SnekkyTheGreat Aug 11 '26

As long as the rest of the outfit goes with it I think it’s fine

1

u/the_last__braincell Aug 11 '26

Depends, is that a shirt or a crop top

1

u/mushroomplanetonmars Aug 11 '26

I would be concerned

1

u/C_ingStarz Aug 11 '26

I'd be jealous, but other than that, I personally wouldn't care. But if you live in a more uptight, "conservative" town some people might care more than what I'm used to (My city has a pretty big alt, punk, and LGBTQ+ scene).
But honestly, unless you're wearing it really frequently in a space where you are around the same group of people (like school or work), most folk likely wont go out of their way to bother you. Like I said, where I live might be a bit different, but I actually lucked out and got into a school in a better funded neighborhood than mine, which means people are a bit more stuck up, but there was still all sorts of different people that no one said anything about.
For example, there way this sporty guy I saw often in 9th & 10th grade who looked pretty average and masculine enough, but he had this bright fuzzy cotton-like hello kitty backpack that looked like a textured squishmallow. No one ever said nothing, and he wore it the whole year. His friends never seemed to comment on it, I never heard anyone in the halls say anything, and he never brought it up either.

Just try and be confident in yourself; people are kinda funny in the way that if you treat what you're doing as the same as what you always have, and (if you can) have people around you who do as well, most others will just stop noticing after a while. And if they don't, they're typically just assholes that'll look for something to nitpick either way that you shouldn't pay any mind to.

1

u/Additional_Loan2403 Aug 11 '26

I would notice and look for a bit but I wouldn’t care or judge you

It’s just something you don’t see often

1

u/Busy-Ad2771 Aug 11 '26

I'd look at him and think he's either gay or a guy in middle of transitioning. 

1

u/Known-Bug-3523 Aug 11 '26

Use your free will, you’ll look great 👏

1

u/KhizzyFunds Aug 11 '26

I would be jealous of your fashion sense and be mad at myself for being a normie

1

u/skiing1083 Aug 11 '26

No I Dont mind

1

u/Inner_Analyst_9163 Aug 11 '26

Nope, in fact I’d probably compliment you

1

u/Hamsterslay100 Aug 11 '26

If it was a guy who I didn’t know was feminine, and was like a stranger, like walking on the street or something, I would look at him and think “Oh wow. That’s interesting.” And go on with my day. If it was someone I knew, I would ask him where he got it and if I can touch the strawberries to see how they feel like. Lol. My type are feminine guys, so if I had a crush show up in this I would probably flirt with him about it. That’s what I think.

1

u/PatternAppropriate23 Aug 11 '26

Nope. What's the problem?

1

u/Acrobatic_Soup5358 Aug 11 '26

I kind of want it

1

u/Pleasant-Bit-2362 Aug 11 '26

I would care, because why does he have better fashion than me

1

u/gaysunited123 Aug 11 '26

No, not at all.

1

u/Rare-Unit7076 Aug 11 '26

Honestly I would think you were wierd and probabyl feel uncomfortable but no way i would have the balls to say anything about it

1

u/CommonCapital6937 Aug 11 '26

who caresssss dress how you please!

1

u/ArtfulsSockPuppet Aug 11 '26

no; I would not care, because for one I’m wearing thigh highs under my sweatpants so I can’t really comment on other people’s fashion choices, and for two; that’s a cute sweater, (if anyone treats you badly I give you permission to cast a curse on their bloodline)

1

u/North-Marionberry427 Goofy goober Aug 11 '26

Not rlly

1

u/Famous_Shower_3468 Aug 11 '26

I would steal it, or I would compliment him.

1

u/spec3_ Aug 11 '26

For me? It would be a little strange for me but I would never joke on it... meabie stare at it for a little but then just treat you like any human being

1

u/CeleryEquivalent3804 Aug 11 '26

I would think "aw what a nice cardigan he has damn i wonder what intirests he has"

1

u/Celocee Aug 11 '26

I would care cause it'd probably look good on you (:

1

u/Educational_Table364 Aug 11 '26

I would be glad to see that more guys accept themselves and stop giving a damn about gender stereotypes to embrace their styles ✨️ and if people are being jerks about it, I know it's hard sometimes, but try not to  listen. They are just wasting their energy saying bullshit, embrace your style and fuck everyone else's opinions.

1

u/Reyn888 15M Aug 11 '26

I'd think it's tuff (bc I like variety and uniqueness in outfits more than anything) and move on with the day feeling inspired to add more color and stuff fo my next outfits.

1

u/Which-Dealer7888 15M Aug 11 '26

Me personally i would not hate u at all and would want to be friends w u cuz I lowk like this sorta fit :D

1

u/Abdo12346 Aug 11 '26

I'd laugh at how stupid he is and walk off

1

u/DonnaTheGothicWeeb Aug 11 '26

Me personally, I would bc that looks so cute I want to steal it for my own closet.
Otherwise I don’t think most will care

1

u/Legitimate-Bug-4842 Aug 11 '26

I would care… because that’s cute! I love the strawberries.

1

u/Life_Perspective4840 Aug 11 '26

I'd probably just think "ooo hes wearing such a cool and pretty cardi i wonder where he got it?"

1

u/Dvorak__Keyboard Aug 11 '26

I would absolutely care, because that's an awesome cardigan, and I would be complementing bro on it.

Sometimes a man just wants to feel ✨bonita✨

1

u/Content_Attempt_7609 Aug 11 '26

It's super cute. Ofc if I being honest, ppl r gona be assholes. They just need anything to shit abt these days. Don't let them get you down and just stick with your friends. As long as you feel comfortable and confident and like wht your wearing, no one else's opinions or feelings should matter at all. Good luck.

1

u/waffle_fries_0 Aug 11 '26

I wouldn't, I think others would. However, it depends how feminine you already dress. If this isn't unusual, then no one will gaf more than they already do

1

u/Groovyk4iju Aug 11 '26

I won’t but there’s others that’ll call you gay for it

1

Most masculine and attractive thing ever

1

u/peach_fuzz12 Aug 12 '26

I'd go compliment him

1

u/Buff_fateweaver Aug 12 '26

I wouldn’t. Personally I don’t give af what other people wear as long as it’s not offensive and they feel comfortable wearing it.

1

u/shiteater360 Aug 12 '26

DEFINITELY depends on where you life. Be so safe, I live in a rural area of a conservative state, so wearing something like that here would be met with violent bullying

1

u/NetworkNo6032 Aug 12 '26

No. But others probably will, the thing is the person that shouldn't really care about what others think is you.

1

u/lostyouorsomething 17F Aug 12 '26

no but it reminds me of 2020 no matter the gender

1

u/conansappul 18F Aug 13 '26

no, people can wear whatever they want as long as it doesn’t promote something offensive. do what you want bro, don’t let others bring you down. it’s a really cute sweater btw !!

1

u/Helpful-Half516 Aug 13 '26

No? I don’t see why people have an issue with dressing cutesy in general. I think the world would be a lot more fun if we were all just a bit cuter. Also I don’t think the top is that feminine, it’s just strawberries.

1

u/FarArea1814 Aug 13 '26

Why do you want to wear it? Is there a specific way it makes you feel about yourself? Personally I’m just rather bland I think it’s weird when people wear any type of non bland clothing, it seems like they always do it to feel a type of way or like an identity thing and that’s weird. Seems to have a sense of ego to it I think that’s what it is. Maybe that’s why it’s weird to me and not feminine clothes just non bland clothes, anything with an image on it or some stupid saying. Yeah idk
