Edited by

The American boardwalk has become a place for fried food, fake boobs and leathery complexions, but this iconic beach scene hasn’t always been so seedy. Once upon a time, stylish vacationers and locals alike filled the seats in soda shops and on Ferris wheels, parasols and lace gloves in tow. East Coast boardwalks – being so close to NYC, center of the universe – were visions of elegance and abundance, even in spite of the freak shows, speakeasies and casinos.

Straight Man Complaint: High Waisted Shorts

Edited by

I may be known to boast a high waisted short from time to time, and regularly advise you to do the same. And we know why we wear them – when done correctly, they can be quite the flatterer to a figure. But last night, as I wore a pair of long man’s shorts done up high at the waist, belted for definition, I discovered, and this may come as a shock to all but The Man Repeller: Straight men don’t like them.

High waisted shorts are sadly wasted on the straight man.

Backpack Pack It Up

Edited by

We’ve been easing into the concept of backpacks once again. It’s a slow moving train, but we really did them some harm in the 90′s with over saturation and awkward adolescent memories. Then we did even more bodily harm with scoliosis inducing one shouldered bags. Now, we’re not saying that a backpack is fully acceptable in an office environment, or on a daily basis, but a good rucksack like one of these will be ready for your summer adventures.
