It pisses me off SO MUCH that men's "fashion" is "shirt, t-shirt, jumper, jeans, sneakers, fuck off".

I spent years trying to get myself some cool, tall boots. Finally found them at a second hand. About a year later managed to identify the company that made them, another year later found the exact model... in their women's boots category*. Because such boots just do not exist for men.

I had to get a tailor to make my coat, because what I wanted, again, does not exist in the men's "fashion" world. Or, well, it does - on Temu, and in "goth fashion" stores, where it's all cheap, crap, plastic, made with slave labour, and extremely tacky.

* I'm still rocking them whenever I can, because fuck that noise.
