The real men dont cry brigade. No wonder men are afraid to speak out about their mental health. Thankfully, these fossils, like the dinosaurs are slowly becoming extinct.

He also wouldn’t have allowed his children to be broadcast on the internet. There were standards in those days. We have not “moved on for the better”. We have regressed terribly IMHO.

A few posters said they were doing it with their families and I saw a couple of pictures elsewhere of families wearing them too. It would have been around 2013 I think. It seems to be widespread the past three years or so. Personally, it's not something I'd be willing to participate in and I don't like the whole trend at all. But some of the negative reactions to it are disturbing tbh, far more abnormal than those actually doing it I think.

It's a bit creepy going around covertly taking people's photos because you disapprove of their attire and then posting them online. Do you judge everyone's attire or is it reserved for just particular sections of society? What next? Someone wearing morning dress in the evening??
