Turtlenecks… UFF!! They are everywhere!

IdeasEvolved.com thanks Maleeka Saqlain for this contribution.

This article is strictly aimed at males- i.e. the male population between ages 15-30. Girls will mostly agree (i am sure!).

I often marvel at this one amazing quality in guys; not really bothering much about their clothing. Seldom have I encountered a guy fretting about his attire, let alone appearing self-conscious. This is a quality so contrary to the female genetic make-up who are programmed to instinctively pay heed (over attention in most cases) to their attire.

So, where I find this unique kind of male fascinating; sometimes, however, it does leave me astonished and bewildered- for all the wrong reasons. Recently, this astonishment has exalted, owing to an article of clothing that is very popular among guys nowadays. Every third guy seems to be hooked to wearing them- Turtlenecks… UFF!! They are everywhere!

Sure turtleneck sweater in itself is an attractive piece of clothing, but really guys-please pay a weee bit attention: is it really your thing?? Does it really make you look attractive??

Everybody has taken to wearing turtlenecks. Sure they look smart, and well-suited, but only if worn properly.

I still remember the most attractive turtleneck sweater-which by the way is rare! It was a deep purple turtleneck with a single black stripe. GOD!! the guy looked ‘drop-dead handsome!!’, owing to the guy who carried it off so well.

And, there is a long, long, looong list of turtlenecks that- well…make you cringe at sight, you really are forced to say: What exactly were you thinking, dude???!!!!

Chief winners of this categories being sky blue one with orange and navy blue stipes and the other which was multi-colored-’Tuttifruity-ish!’ and to top it up, had smudgy, bizarre patterns. It sure looked disastrous!!

An attractive turtleneck, with snug fitting is obviously not for every guy. If you fall into the skinny or slender types, turtlenecks make you look like a swan- with a long not-so-graceful neck, highly inappropriate guys!!

Plus if the snug fitting doesn’t hug your shoulders appropriately, you look drab.

Turtleneck sweaters are also not your thing if you fall in the hefty, gluttony category.

Dudes, please Stop considering yourselves contemporaries of the Cambridge, Bonanza advertisement models, who fill those polar necks perfectly!! Stick to reality, view yourself in a more realistic light and please give yourself one good look before you step out!

By now you would be wondering what’s this girl’s problem, why on earth is she writing an entire article about this.. Because it bloody hurts my eyes ;(
