Yes to wear tie on professional occasion is enhance your confidence and sincerity
But when you gather for enjoyment and relaxation is really having no sense to
Wear it
It would be very much interesting if anyone have history or some research work
Like when it started to wear.

No I wouldnt believe. Where on earth did you get that from?

Perhaps you missed the interview with the new President of AFIC a few days back.

I actually emailed him saying- I love your tie.
It was a beautiful tie that suites the beautiful man that he is.

Ties are worn by most people who have some idea of standards repect.

I dont think I recall even one person at AFIC meetings that were not nicely dressed and all wearing a suite and tie.

This is at their own office and amoung themselves I might add.

You have been seriously misinformed.

Not a tie wearer myself and after reading the latest medical reports, will never ever wear one again.

I care about my girlfriend's health too much.

"Viruses, bacteria, yeast, and even fungi. Despite your best efforts, all of these little bugs at some point will colonize your personal space and start an infection. From being sneezed on by a contagious co-worker, contaminated food, to sharing a gym locker with the wrong person, there are a million different ways for you to catch one of these critters...........

....doctors in a labour and delivery unit were each given a clean tie, either a traditional long or a bow-tie, and asked to wear then for three typical days at work.....

By the end of a single working day, bacteria such as Enterococcus faecalis were found on all long ties .......... By end of the third day, all bow ties were contaminated as well. This amount of bacterial contamination is even more surprising given that all doctors in the study claimed to wear lab-coats.............. to protect them and their clothes from the daily hazards of their OB/GYN job including blood, amniotic fluid, urine, and faeces."

Okay now we are not all exposed to quite the same conditions as a labour ward. But there is a strong case to say that in the average office ties collect viruses and bacteria.

Therefore, ties are not only unnecessary and elitist, they are health hazards.

However, on things elitist, my girlfriend has some thoughtful words for me ole cobber, COL ROUGE. He stated above: "Anyway ties have also given opportunity for the ladies (sic) in my life to contribute to my wardrobe in a manner which can be as delightful as it is sometimes disasterous (sic) so that now I do suggest leave the choosing to the wearer."

She suggests that the 'disastrous' ties selected by Col's 'ladies' are indicative of the type of woman he prefers and tends to attract.

I'm betting that Col's 'ladies' just love the Marilyn Monroe ties and think that is most appropriate for you old son.

JR, thanks for that information about the hygiene risk of wearing ties.

I can imagine that the food industry would also benefit from a ban on ties. I mean, what's more important, conformity or hygiene?

I found the article and just sent the link off to a few 'fresh food' supermarkets of which the uniforms for the men in fresh produce include neckties.
Eeeeeuw, I can imagine that these ties are not only contaminated by germs, but that pesticides and herbicides also collect there, and I don't even want to think about squashed insect eggs and larvae...

If research results like this gets more widely known, I figure women wouldn't want to touch tie-wearing men with a 10 foot pole- the tie could become the latest form of contraception... and ties would finally have a function.

Having said all that, some designs do look quite creative and interesting so perhaps ties could still have another function as interesting collectors items.

Oh funny about the Marilyn Monroe tie- I hope she is given a thorough scrub every time after use :)))

Yep
Why Not- Burn all ties - burn the flag- change our national song
Anything else.
Whilst it may not be the intention of the person to have created another way of chipping at our Western Soceity I see it as such.

I cant imagine attending a formal meeting or wedding for example without our men wearing a tie.

What about attending the funeral of an old british "gentleman?'

That would seem a slap in the face and a sign of disrespect to him as far as I am concerned.

Perhaps as Australia is in need of jobs some clever little school boy could bring back the old shoe shine and press and de- bug your ties after lunch or dinner.
Umm Interesting thought

God Help this country if this is what people waiste their time on.

I hope the Minister of Small Business doesnt bring more back from China with her upon her return to WA after blocking people opening Abattoirs in Australia.
Never mind I am quite sure you all dont have a clue what I am talking about.
Happy mixing, silly thinking- Enjoy while you can because your going to have a lot more than a few germs on a tie to worry about.

Why not everybody refuse to wear shirts or socks or Hey what the heck- Any clothing at all.

We could all go back to the dark ages and run around with nothing on in the name of germ science.
Try looking at what you all eat- Such as the cruel intensive farming to see where the disease comes from that spreads to the - 'Tie`?

Anyway careful what you wish for
