Poll: the skinny jean fad

[Nalgas D. Lemur]

I really don't care one way or the other about them. If other people want to wear them, that's their business. The most recent jeans I bought are "more skinny" than my old ones, but that's only because I lost weight and look kind of silly in stuff that's too big/loose now, and they're not actually skinny jeans. I wouldn't wear them myself, mostly because I'm not comfortable in stuff that's too tight.

The only potential problem I have with them is if it makes it hard for me to find ones I like. I hate it every time pre-worn/frayed or even ripped jeans come back into style, because it makes shopping for jeans such a pain in the ass. I'm fine with wearing worn and well-broken in jeans, but only if I did it myself over time. I don't like shopping for clothes in the first place, so I want to get stuff that'll last a while, not that's already frayed and will start falling apart in a few months. At least that's not so much of an issue with skinny vs. loose, unless they're so skinny they rip when you bend over or so loose they keep getting caught on stuff.

Girls can wear them thats fine when guys wear them it just looks painful!

 

[MagicMouse]

On girls they are fine. They are used to wearing unpractical/uncomfortable things that look good lol.

On guys they look stupid and feminine, AND are unpractical/uncomfortable.

I personally could not care less what kind of things a dude covers his junk with. But SPEAKING of his junk, there was a study once that indicated skinny jeans may lend their hand to infertility. Because sperm need to be kept a degree or so cooler than body heat to be healthy, so tightening your package closer to your body can warm them up and make them less effective.

True stuff, I'm pretty sure.

i feel like putting that up on a billboard

I tried on a pair and could barely get my size 12 foot through the legs. Plus I can't fit my hands in the pockets without a lot of force. I imagine if my phone were in the pocket the fabric would be pressing buttons all the time. I couldn't go around with keys, wallet, phone, spare change, knife, etc.
These jeans are meant to be worn with a purse. I just don't roll that way.

so this fad came from the blue i didnt expect it to come back after the 70's but anything is possible i dont wear them myself but i find it kinda stupid because firt gerls started to wear then then one guy thought ''hmmm what if if i was one of them?'' then that make it come to the men. so i ask does it bother you??

Not nearly as much as your Grammar.

I do, and like these jeans very much.

I didn't notice they were in fashion. A couple of people I knew from school wear them every now and again, but they're A-grade dinguses, so I thought it was a dingus thing.

That's what I get for living in a town full of middle aged people, I guess.

EDIT:
Feel I should throw out that I don't wear them myself. I like my baggy clothes. They let me... er... sit down... without too much trouble. Yeah.
Shut up.

 

[The Austin]

I always saw the skinny jeans thing as being kind of.... Well, "girly".

 

[Valksy]

Clothes = those things that mean you are not naked.

Honestly, I don't care what folks want to wear and would not bother judging them at all.

 

[NoseDigger]

I have mildly skinny jeans. I like them a lot.Skinny skinny jeans here make you weird, overly baggy the same. So I go with mildly skinny.

 

[Sneaky-Pie]

I personally never have tried it as I can just imagine how uncomfortable they would be. I typically keep a lot of stuff in my pockets as well.

Also, they look pretty stupid.

 

[reg42]

I think they looks ridiculous, so no I don't where them

 

[sageoftruth]

Skinny jeans don't bother me much. I'm already too bothered by the jeans and shorts that hang below one's boxers. I suppose skinny jeans are just the new tool fad. Maybe when I see enough of them I'll be bothered.

 

[XJ-0461]

Not for me. So definately not for me. My favourite jeans are really baggy, have pockets that can actually hold stuff without it digging into my leg, are fairly cheap, offer a good range of mobility, and don't crush what I don't need crushing. Essentially the opposite of skinny jeans.

Plus, I'd probably look like a douchebag if I ever wore them.

 

[David Bray]

I can't fit in them. My legs are too muscular to get in. That's the only reason i don't like them

 

[Free Thinker]

I'm afraid to even try wearing a pair for the fear I can put them on, but not take them off. Then my legs will lose circulation, I'll have to get my legs amputated, and then I'll spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair unless they make me a cyborg or do research on stem cells to grow limbs, which probably will never happen because people are twats...and did I just go on a rant? I feel like my point has been made.

 

[MrMixelPixel]

I wear skinny jeans quite often. So NO, they do not bother me in the slightest. I think they are undeserving of most of the hate they are given.

 

[Shockolate]

I prefer pants where I can actually use the god damned pockets.

Plus, my legs are too big for skinny jeans. It would just looks silly on me.
