I honestly do not mind the criticisms and all my responses have been civil so far.
But really when someone already explained why he dressed that way and people already stated that it is likely just "overdressed" or "costumey" to you because you aren't used to it, then people has to accept that but no, they pound and pound on the same criticism and complaint as if the response wasn't read. And it becomes a circle jerk of arguing in the end. I mean really, if he said he dressed up that way because wanted to and he often does it, that should be enough of an explanation that he dresses that way because he likes it. But he even said he visited his grandma and went to a frat function, which obviously could use some dressing up.
I don't really have to defend Pinoy732, I just simply tried to explain why his fit works and why it doesn't look "costumey" at all. To some, this is the norm. Just because you went to a college where people wore sweats to classes all the time, doesn't mean it is weird when someone does. And even if he did go to a college that are like that, there is nothing wrong with dressing that way either. You can be different and really he isn't going to stand out in those clothes. Chances are people in the classes are half asleep or worried about the upcoming test or are just checking out chicks, not that the dude is wearing a newsboy cap.
Plethora of people here (who are also questioning his fits) want to go way over casual with sweats and hoody and nothing is wrong with that but then if we say something, we get labeled snobs and that we should get off our high-horse and close-minded, again it's a circle jerk argument in the end. No one wants to concede and they do not want to accept the explanation simply because a man of pinoy732s age shouldn't wear what he wears even if it is what he wants? I mean really, the logic there is simply flawed.
For this to stop, someone criticizes (it looks costumey) and another explains (it's not, it's how he likes his clothes), maybe another rebuttal (doesn't look typical) and if there is a good to decent explanation/answer (he went to visit his grandma & to a frat event and it was explained how it isn't really overdressed) then the one criticizing either have to accept part of that with an open mind and say, "oh ok, it makes sense" for the discussion to reach a conclusion instead of the typical "no, that just doesn't work, it's overdress because you are 25 years old and my teach dressed like that". If the answer is always the latter, then there really is no end it'll end up with e-hair-pulling and e-eye-scratching.
And as a not, Pinoy732 has gotten plenty of criticism in the beginning and the advice was accepted and he has improved, I still say he needs to cut his hair though.
