The Trouble With Kanye

If you know anything about Kanye, you know he loves his Balenciaga sandals and neon. Some people think he looks moronic. Some people think he looks awesome. Apparently, some people think he looks “gay.”

Blogger Elizabeth Gates at the Daily Beast noticed how homophobic and racially motivated some commenters’ replies were about recent paparazzi snaps of Kanye and his entourage at Fashion Week. “Only gay guys wear that [crap!]” one wrote. “Bootylishious,” wrote another. But this isn’t anything new. Two years ago, 50 Cent made waves when he complained that Kanye got invited on “Oprah,” not him, which he said proved Middle America would be OK with their kids being gay. Keep reading »

The Willy Warmer Sweater Thong

Men and lingerie don’t usually go together unless there’s a woman in the mix. But now that we’ve come across the mantyhose, garter belts for men, bras for men, male girdles and Spanx for guys, we’re convinced that retailers are targeting this neglected demographic. We’ve discovered one more weird piece of male lingerie: the Willy Warmer Sweater Thong. For the low price of $27.99 you can get your guy his very own thick, soft mohair thong with an open Willy Warmer. This reminds me of the old adage that says you should never show too much skin at once; When the guy’s butt is exposed, he has to cover up his Johnson with luxurious mohair. If my guy wore this thong, I’d be worried about his sanity and his package (wouldn’t mohair cause chafing of his delicate penis skin?). Plus, I can’t even imagine what the dry cleaner would think.

Trends For Men: Garter Belts To Hold Up His Thigh-Highs!

Even after the mantyhose, skirts for men, bras for bros, girdles for guys, and Spanx just for dad, it’s still totally crazy and absurd to think about a man wearing a lacy garter around his thigh. My assumption was that men who wear garter belts must be cross-dressers or into the whole fetish thing. Right? But maybe I’m being narrow-minded over here. After all, John Galliano had male models rocking garter belts during his Fall 2009 runway show (above), and a company called Comfilon sells them along with thigh high stockings (see pic after the jump).

    Gross Guy Trend: The Medge

    At the men’s fashion shows in Milan, an interesting new shoe style for men appeared: the male wedge, aka the “medge.” We hope Tom Cruise is the only one who adopts this style. (Sidenote: When you do a search for “male wedge,” Google says, “Did you mean: male wedgie“. Ha.) [The Times, U.K.] Keep reading »
