hi all,

I would like to make a complaint on the behalf of all men....
which I am not...grin

why on earth do men continue with the bad tradition of tie
wearing

for starters, they are uncomfortable, chaffing, annoying...
and sit there doing nothing but looking stupid

perhaps hat elastic and a silk drip dry tie
if one MUST

it is one of the most useless pieces of clothing I have come
across.... next to polyester chaffing collars....

its ridiculous that men still wear heavy suits and ties,
especially in australia

just a wee...thought

those chinese type collars are sufficient
and or a tea shirt and jacket

JHH
grin

I can think of only one reason for them,
and thats not working

washing up
and or cooking

Never worn a flippin tie and never bloody will.

Never wear footwear unless I absolutely have to.

Or any clothes for that matter, in this wonderful north Queensland climate!!

it would only take one game, brave man, to not wear a tie to work,
?

I've never really seen the importance of ties. I have to wear them now and again, though if I can squirm out of it I can and do.

They're certainly among the ghastliest and stupid items of clothing... well, cummerbunds may give them a run for their money, but aside from that and anything in tweed, they're at the top of the list.

I reckon Freud would make merry with this one.Could the tie be a symbol of male sexual dominance?So wearing a bow tie makes you more submissive.

More likely in the corporate world it represents conformity.

Did you hear the one about the vain actor?He that many face lifts that eventually his navel became the dimple on his chin,but is real dilemma was in concealing his bow tie.
