Screw the Rohirrim. We need the Cadians on this shit. NOW.
OT: Regarding sandals: men have worn sandals since time immemorial. I do find the the feminization of men's fashions to be regrettable, as I find the feminization of men in general to be objectable, at least to the degree that it seems to have been taken. I wouldn't care about the man-skirt thing if it at all resembled the classic Roman or Greek toga, but it doesn't. It more closely resembles the clubbing outfit of some vile std ridden skank.
Except less tasteful.
The same goes for anything that incorporates pantyhose. Perhaps men's and women's clothing developed along the consistent lines it did because the differing shapes between males and females called for a different approach to clothing them. Of course modernity being the contrarian mess that it is those in the fasion industry seem to have forgotten that. Either that or they ran out of ideas and said "fuck it, 'trendy' consumers will buy and wear anything I crank out anyway, I
might as well see how far I can take it.
Also, the fuck with napsacks becoming man-bags. I don't carry my books every day in a man-bags, it's a backpack. Infantrymen don't wear man-bags into battle. If the Canadian, US or any European army took to incorporating the 'man-bag' into the BDU the morale of whoever their enemy at the time is would
skyrocket.
