3. I'd agree
I was age 2-12 in the 80s and my fashion sense is slightly above average.

It's what's inside her clothes that counts. Geez, some people are so superficial.

88. How about you WITH the kitty?
You could hold it in front of your "strategic location" if you're shy:P

92. That would be playing right into Santorums hands . . .
Imagine if he got his hands on it and said "See this is what I said would happen." :) :) :)

98. Good point!

When Ashcroft bangs down my door in the near future you probably don't want yourself or any kitty you love to be in my nude photo collection, anyway :D :D

87. Look at this hottie!
Edited on Thu Apr-22-04 04:28 PM by m-jean03
And tell me he doesn't have fashion sense! Look at those nice, tight shorts that actually fit the definition of the word (not to mention the definition of the thighs) & that nice, athletic, just baggy-enough shirt!

83. I like older men too, but I laugh at that one!
I'm 32 and I prefer the 37 to 47 age range (slightly older). I just don't usually seem to click with most men my own age. In fact, I was so happy once I was 18 and old enough to date older men (not that it was always the best idea then, but that's another story). That being said, maybe it's just the ones I know, but I don't see too many of them with exactly suave and debonair fashion sense. Not that it bothers me (I mean if they smell good and look halfway normal that's probably more important), but I'm wondering where you meet those fashionable dudes? (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) :7

Though I haven't met a lot... But I know they're out there. There's Parrcrow, for one example -- his photos were really the inspiration for this thread :7

86. My dear good woman...
...I sure did come of age in the '80s (to put it mildly, ha-ha-ha), but I fear I'm maybe too retro for you. I favor vintage silk bow-ties on special occasions, generally employ Gucci and E. Zegna footwear, and have a number of authetic 1940s suits (one formerly owned by Cary Grant himself).

I take my ties from Seigo Katsuragawa on Madison Ave., my cuff-links from The Missing Link in Chelsea, my vintage spectacles from a private collector in Paris, and my general haberdashery from Peter Eliot, J. Press, Brooks , Bergdorf and Edward Archer in the Hamptons. My shirts are bespoke, from Gieves and Hawkes of Saville Row.

I'd never buy a stitch west of the Hudson.

Oh, but I'd dress down for you, darlin'. No doubt. I'd even push my jacket sleeves up, '84-style. And gloop some Tenax in my hair.

I would even peg my trousers. For you, though---only for you. You demand a "Frankie Says..." T-shirt? You got it! But no acid-washed jeans, no, not even for you, dear. Man's got to have some standards, yeah?

90. All that for me?
I'm honored!! Boy, and you must be a real hot-shot, too, with all those fancy clothes & and that occasional name-dropping you do. :7 I'm all yours, when's the date?

(You know, and acid wash jeans are one thing I'm not crazy about.. .)

93. Name time and place...
...I'll be there. Or, if I can't make it, we'll just go on with our DU'ing.

I didn't mean to name-drop. How crass. How declasse. Oh, wait . Yes I did. But I was kidding. But I wasn't.

Shit, girl, you know what I mean.

106. No mystery. No mystery at all.
None.

Hope you find your '80s fashion victim. Good night to you. It's only midnight but I need sleep.

We'll talk again. Somewhere out there.

But you knew that.

And feathered hair are a must --

And put those jeans in the dryer first, and you'd better have to lay on your back to pull em on. :7

In my perfect world, I would have all the rights and equality as (hopefully) my great great granddaughter will but the men will dress as well as men did in the 20's and 30's. Nothing is more sexier than a feminist man in a 3 piece suit. *sigh*

i.e. men in their 20s! I couldn't help it. It's the weather! It's the spring! It's all that facial hair! Yikes.

105. As an older man, I would like to say I appreciate your thoughts
however, it you are under the age of twenty, it could get me arrested in every state except Arkansas.
