Ok here's my soapbox whine:

Why does all unisex clothing look like it's made for males? Examples:

Here is the Google Images result for Unisex Childrens Wear:

Here is the Google Images result for Girls Childrens Wear:

And below are some pics from Refuse to Conform clothing brand, aimed at the trans/androgynous clientele.

If gender is dead, and if bows, pink and frills etc. aren't just for girls, then why does no unisex outfit feature anything traditionally feminine?
Because it's still better to be a man.

The problem with the idea of unisex clothes is that it's an impossible concept to see through to any logical conclusion.  All it can ever mean is birds dressing like geezers or geezers dressing like birds.  What you gonna do, design a third way?  It's always gonna look like one of the other innit?

On topic:

Them fuckin' poofy shoes that men wear these days, you know the ones, they tend to wear em with no socks, those slip on types, with a little buckle type thing which ain't a buckle on the top.  Everytime i see someone wearing em it's like what do you look like you fuckin' bender, get yourself a pair of proper shoes, you twat.

Like them...if you're a geezer and you wear them you want fuckin' knocking out.  And I ain't even against dressing like a bird, I'm a New York Dolls fan for cryin' out loud...but those are just....fuckin' awful, Viv Westwood or no Viv Westwood.

I'm visiting Florida for the first time in May. This is how I envision myself. 

You have to wear pastels if you're visiting Florida Gracii. It's an unwritten rule over there! :lol:

I didn't buy one of the hideous things in the '90s so I do not think I'm going to start now.

I used to love those but i was skint growing up, took me long enough to save 30 quid for my bomber jacket so i just stuck with it.

I would have thought you would have just knicked one?

Funnily enough I never nicked clothes for myself cuz it was conspicious.  I mean you cant come home 13 yrs old with a brand new jacket and explain it away.  With clothes i tended to nick em and flog em.

So my friend is kind of annoying the shit out of me. We were jamming and he has a bunch of pedals but he goes overkill with them. His newest thing is an effect that turns your guitar sound into orchestra sounding shit. It yields nothing as far as writing goes and sounds kinda boring.

You mean blokes?  Fuckin' loads of em around here, makes ya sick dunnit? :lol:  I guess the London area is where you're likely to see more sort of...high end fashion in more places, London, Paris, New York, Milan, they're sort of boutique central.  Those things are fuckin' plastic though, like shiny plastic.  Christian Louboutin, Viv Westwood, those kinda designers do em.  I think Viv started em.  And they always seem to be worn without fuckin' socks.  I'm lanky as fuck with massive feet so they'd look fuckin' stupid on me, perhaps thats why i hate on em like i do :lol:

Just thought I'd update everyone on my depression/feeling lost from last month. I'm in a much better place now a month later. I'm starting to enjoy my job again, I've been going to the gym for almost two weeks straight now, and the only time in the last week where I spent all day in bed was Thursday and that was to play a video game that I just got. I'm also applying at my local community college for a Business Specialist degree and hope to be out within two years.

Thanks to everyone who gave me advice and support (you know who you are) when I came here to bitch about my situation.
