Wew soy.

>>13204124
It’s not soy it’s literally rugged men’s fashion. Plaid, leather, fur, denim and darker colors all attribute to this. It would be soy if it was shit like tight fitting clothes. Also there’s a difference between a man’s beard and hair and a soyboy’s beard and hair

>>13204430
>>13204423
You're both right. If someone is actually manly, it accentuates that. If someone is actually a soyboy who is appropriating the trappings of manliness then you will appear as a soyboy. Beards are the same way. You can't buy clothes to escape from faggotry, that comes from within.

I feel it takes away some of the "manliness" when you know these people were dressed by a professional stylist and told to stare mysteriously into the middle distance and furrow their brow on command while someone photographs them.

>>13204552
except maybe Bowie, but the cool thing about Bowie is that he looked just as natural dressed in boots and suspenders as in brightly colored spandex. Gender completely irrelevant.

>manly
>all of these people desperately trying to recompensate lack of manliness with beards and "manly" clothes

being a man isnt about eating steaks, going at the shooting range and doing all of these reddit-tier shit stuff, its more about having a certain attitude and your own opinions, being mentally strong, taking challenges, being productive and valuable member of society. no clothes can recompensate lack of these things

>>13204552
I've never seen that photo before. Is that really Bowie? Holy shit he looks great. What era?

>>13204612
agreed anon, it takes away some manliness to be photographed, but we can't exactly post non-photographed manly men can we senpai

People have been enjoying whiskey and cigars and so on for centuries, there's nothing soy or unsoy about them, they're just innocent objects that are fun to consume. Trouble is that people like OP are constructing images around them. It's the same as all that fedora shit.

>developing talents of charisma, leadership, wisdom, artistry, etc is hard, see: >>13204624
>buying objects associated with man A is easy
And so you get the ebin Ron Swanson bacon-wrapped-shrimp art of memeliness red buffalo >>13204116 flannel beard oil craze, carried by lads that work in coffee shops and are terrified of scuffing their $300 "work boots." They exist in a world of concept and imagery, entirely dissociated from the material basis of their belongings. It's easy to understand and we should sympathize. Comfort and security are so easily acquired through submission to - and I use this term hesitantly because I have nothing better - the "bugman" ecosystem... that by the time these poor men realize what part of themselves they've given up to buy that comfort and security, it's often too late. Or maybe it's too late for all of us, look where we are after all

>>13204663
>sympathize
Er, maybe I meant empathize. Whichever one means pity the poor fucks.

>>13204663
Good post

>>13204632
I actually have no idea, but my guess would be mid-90's since the aesthetic is kinda similar to the "Heart's Filthy Lesson" video.

>>13204679
sympathize was correct here
sympathy is to feel bad for someone
empathy is to understand what someone goes thru and imagine yourself in their situation

If you pity them neither you nor them are better off. The appropriate feeling to have towards them is "contempt".

Just be /fit/ and wear whatever you want. That's about as manly as it gets

>>13205056
this, if you wear something because you think it's "manly" then you are nothing more than a faggot

>>13204114
Fucking hideous.

>>13204663
Oh shit I was going to post this same thing--buying and displaying the trappings of an image (the signifiers) rather than developing the qualities those things signify (the signified)--but decided it'd be a waste of time because no one would be receptive to it. Thanks for proving me wrong, and please post more.

asking for fashion advice on the internet is the opposite of being manly and youre a faggot for making this retarded thread.
>bourbon and cigars
haha so manly right?? you are the same as soyboys, acutally you're even worse since you deny being unmanly and think you can be manly by consuming certain things. off yourself

>>13205315
Your kneejerk assumptions and feral hostility aren't very manly.

>>13205335
>masculinity
>posts photo of Hollywood studio-designed facsimile of masculinity
Also Cary Grant was gay.

>>13205351
I'm wondering if you're trying to get a rise out of me or someone else; it doesn't matter very much either way. Being overly aggressive and hostile with your points isn't manly since it displays very unmanly traits. Boyish traits, so within the masculine framework, but very much unmanly traits.
Latching onto the superficial and keeping your mind closed from the stances and understandings of others, so as to be so readily influenced by those stances and understandings when they clash with yours, is the mark of childishness. A man who isn't grown yet is a boy, so it's boyish.
At the same time, if we're to assume that you're correct that Cary Grant was a homosexual, then why did his style resonate so well as a debonair, relaxed expression of a refined man? If it's facsimile, then why not analyze it for what it expresses rather than its origin? That it resonates so isn't false, even if it's been constructed in such a way.
And to go back to the original issue: bourbon and cigars. Those are traditional trappings of rugged men and their evocation was simply to provide a framework for subsequent posters to work from. It was not a statement that: True men drink bourbon and enjoy a good cigar! True men have such active traits as are described by >>13204663
If you came from a position of benefit of the doubt and understanding, then you would realize that OP is looking for things that resonate as traditionally manly. It was not an attempt to begin a discussion of what is manly and what isn't. Shifting the issue into the debate of masculinity - while not an ignoble goal - is a misuse of the thread's original purpose. Nothing wrong with it but much can be read from how people react and respond in kind.
Safe to say, and I've gone off on a tangent here, there are plenty of men who aren't manly responding and describing what "manly" is, while entirely missing the point. A man is calm, refined, and capable; he acts when he needs to, not to prove something.

What heat is he possibly dressing for?

in almost all situations he is either way too hot or way too cold, and it's very difficult to change things because if you are a bit too hot, you then drop down to a tshirt.

>>13205381
It's my name in a community where it is incumbent upon individuals to be able to verify a poster's expertise by referring to their identity if the desired end is to receive continuous productive insight in their object of interest rather than fleeting impressions from discontinued random opinions in anonymous posts that get forgotten in roughly 20 minutes. Not to mention it is conducive to maintaining the health and spirit of a community proper.

>>13205504
he's talking about non sexual love as it appears in platon's work, today commonly dubbed 'platonic love'. a love between two males that transcends simple physical affection, and reaches toward the divine.

I responded only to your Cary Grant post. I'm not the anon you were engaging previously. I'll bite though.

I don't know man, maybe because he was a fucking actor. It's bullshit. You're confusing the signifiers with the signified.

Not flannels. Pendleton has more than just flannel and it looks great. Wish they'd put out more jackets

>>13206986
Many people seem to feel like belts are to be worn when pants don't fit. This might have been the case a long time ago, but it's not the case anymore, and people don't really get it, especially the ones who wear ill fitting pants that expose half their ass and still don't wear a belt. I feel naked if I go out without a belt on, whatever I'm wearing always fits fine, but feeling a belt around me looks and feels so much better. idk man people are retarded.

Grant stated in an interview that he didn't put much effort into his clothes. In his words, as long as the fit is right and the details relatively timeless (e.g. not anything skinny or oversized) there's not much more into it. However he did live in a time where fast fashion was not a thing which meant better fabrics, cuts and more uniform colors. Nowadays even if you try to shop using the basic knowledge CG did you'd be shit out of luck.

>>13206986
Personally I like the look. Half my pants have belt loops and the other half don't. It's a subtle brag as in "I have the choice of wearing a belt I just reject it" since my pants are tailored in the waist.

You had me until this, wrong.
A man can be furious, overzealous and boasting and still be a man.

A man is defined by the strength of his assertions combined with the respect he has for himself and his presentation.

>>13208768
it's true that the lower class labour forces are pushed as the most manliest subject of people.
This pushes more and more insecure men to take up jobs that otherwise would not take the shit jobs or make their own enterprises. The reality is, labour is mostly good just for exercise, fresh air and diligence training... not much else. Not having your own long term career goals is one of the biggest memes a man can fall for.

Never understood fags like this. Literally every outfit looks better with a belt. Adds color, texture, and silhouette. Not wearing one is a fast track to looking like a lazy slob.

It looks even worse when women don’t wear one.
