    This is way too much bullshit for me to deal with.


    I'm outta here.


    And fuck you, Cathy Horyn, for having a well-paying job and great benefits with a prestigious company simply based on your ability to spew snobbish and classist crap. The fact that someone like you gets taken very seriously is, right here, one of the problems facing America.

    Also, dudes with kids typically only need to dress for two types of occasions: going to work and working out. We have no need for stylish casual clothing that one would wear out to bars/clubs.


    I'd like to see what Barack should be wearing when he is not in a suit or exercising. Anyone?

    As long as Barack wears a belt and his shoes aren't blinding white, I'm fine with it.

    Everybody's father dresses like this, sadly. Call it "football coach casual."


    Shortly after the birth of their first child, a friend of mine extracted a promise from her husband that he would not run out and purchase the big shiny white sneakers and dark windbreaker just because there was now a child in the house. Every day it is a fresh struggle...

    @City_Dater: God, my father used to wear the cell phone belt clip until my little sister hid it from him.

    "That's because, unlike white males, their formal rights have never been secure. Hence they lean toward more formal attire."


    This is true. When I fly I usually dress my best to avoid the strange looks like I may be a terrorist.


    Or say, If I were walking behind a white woman late at night and I dressed down, she would perhaps be cautious whereas if I were in my usual V-Neck sweater/shirt combo she may let her guard down.

    Fashion is all about free associative thinking. And blow. Lots of it. And that is how you get from Jerry Seinfeld to Barack Obama.

    As long as he gets to work shoveling this country out of the crapfest it has been wallowing in for the past decade, I don't care if he's wearing a fine tailored suit or feetie pyjamas and a cape whilst doing it.

    What's with these Senators and B.O.? Just how long are these terms? It's like they just get into office and filibuster til they are dead.


    Have you ever noticed that the Congressional Page who takes your order is not the one who brings your food anymore? What is that about? And which Page are you tipping, anyway?

    Isn't Seinfeld -- his tired humor, his Boca Del Vista wardrobe, his upper West Side sensibility -- the frame of reference for every Thursday "Style" story?
