Fashion Mistakes Singaporean men tend to make

Looks un-Aspie?

Since fashion is a social construct, and Asperger's is a disorder that seems to affect social functioning, we're going to take a dig at society. After all, they seem more interested to exclude us Aspies just because of what we consistently do that society does not seem to welcome. And it's really good fun to think, society in general may have the need to examine itself. Like our collective lack of style - can't this be its own fashion, eh?

1. Clothes that don't fit right

Looks that it's not just a Singaporean problem.

I love large clothings, and I don't think I picked it from looking at Singaporean papers or other fellow Singaporeans. I wear what I like, comfortable and happy as I am.

I just don't like tight clothes that other Singaporeans wear.

Apparently, other Singaporeans like tight clothes, though. To impress others how skinny they look?

Not me. Haha

2. Collar popping

I wear T-shirts for this reasons.

A collar is meant to protect the neck from sunburn, no?

3. Wear sunglasses at night/indoors

Pure laziness. Anyway, even with Oakley sunglasses, I won't do this, because it looks even cooler without sunglasses on my eyes.

4. Carrying women's bags

Isn't this supposed to be gentlemanly?

I do this.

5. Sports jerseys

Absurd. Is this even a fashion mistake?

Wearing a Newcastle United jersey just means something in Singapore. You're a hardcore football nut, and a 'Virgin'.

Strong personal statement. I reject this label. Lol

If only it's cotton-based... I'll wear this more often. Some materials just feel itchy.

6. Down to there V-necks

So uncomfortable. No thanks.

I am guilty of 3 out of 6 mistakes fellow Singaporean men make.

But then, for some mistakes, I don't think it's a deliberate fashion mistake, given our passion in sports, ahem, football, as well as our hot and wet weather and our need to do good things to fellow women.
