Actually, it does serve a practical purpose: to bring attention to one's face. Unfortunately, you don't see/get that. And that's OK because not everyone gets aesthetics, design, colour harmony, lines, etc. It's just like not everyone is cut out for programming, or not everyone is naturally good at dancing. Also, there's a difference between fashion and style. Fashion is what's available; style is what you choose. The current fashion is t-shirt, jeans, and sneakers. I'm not fashionable--I don't wear that ensemble. Starting very young, I cultivated a different taste. "...simply a method of encouraging conformity and respect for authority." Hmmm... Man, you must really hate ties... so much that you can't see from other perspectives. This kind of thinking reminds me of hatred towards other races, people of a different sexual orientation, etc. I'm all for freedom. "Freedom" is such a powerful word. Hey, you can/may wear whatever you want. I'm going to go to work in suits, sport jackets, pressed trousers, etc. I love the freedom of choice, and I hope others feel the same way. Here's to freedom! |
