Mens boots, cargo shorts, overalls, and hats are a god damn vibe. Just the sheer fucking quality.

WHY CANT I HAVE THE LUXURY OF AQUIRING GOOD CARGO SHORTS!! WHYYYY

My boots’ gender is work. I’m the lady in steel toe work boots regardless of where I am because it’s both an aesthetic and because they’re broken in

As a man I wish I had more options. the JCP Pennys near has like two and a half floors of womens clothes and small mens section that takes up the last half.

I'm a woman who buys my tshirts in the men's section because all women's shirts have become crop tops, or are too low cut to wear to work, or too tight fitting to be comfortable. It looks like we have a lot of options, but I think it's more like we have a lot of non utilitarian options. Like a bunch of clothes you can't do anything in. Like go hiking, or bend over to pick up something you dropped without exposing yourself.

I can get a men's tshirt at target that fits exactly how I want it to(not too short, my boobs aren't hanging out, not too baggy either) for about $8-$10. A women's 'tshirt' will cost $15 plus and have all the issues I mentioned before.

But then again I guess the grass is always greener right?

Womens clothes so often suck in terms of quality compared to men's. My partner is nb, but fits women's clothes best... They can't find suits of anything like the kind of quality you can for men's. Certainly not in more than a couple of styles.

If I buy a shirt and it disintegrates in a year I'll never buy from that company again.

Not every one, and some brands specifically sell thicker cotton.
