    That was a straight fad. Now it’s a gay fad. Lotta hateful crazy people. Soooo the fact that someone may try to attack me for wearing such things even if I want to.

    Since I don’t recognize these movies I’m half tempted to think these are just shots from gay porn intros.

      The first picture is the first A Nightmare on Elm Street (thats Johnny Depp, fyi). I think the second picture is the second Nightmare movie (it has a baseball game in gym class scene but I’m not sure if that’s it). I couldn’t tell you what the last picture is from but I would guess one of the Friday the 13th movies.

      Edit: I think the second and third pictures go together. Maybe they’re both Nightmare 2 but I’m not sure.

    I live down the street from a college. Many of my neighbors are college students. I’ve seen roughly this look on a handful of very young men in the last year. I’ve seen guys in their early 20s/late teens playing sports in roughly this outfit. It is coming back/fashion is more fluid these days. There are still trends, but many young people wear all sorts of stuff that just looks good on their bodies with little regard for era or popularity.

      That’s currently what I’m seeing in terms of style these days. The prevalence of body positivity has allowed people to wear things that flatter themselves. There will always be the crowd that tries something new, but no one is going to be shunned for trying something that works or is comfortable.

    I have gay friends that wouldn’t be caught dead wearing that.

    I guarantee that “style” was because a producer wanted the guys to dress like that.
