Well, just when I was comfortable with C doing the whole "Goth" thing, he takes another turn on me. Anyone here familiar with the "emo" look?
Emo apparently is a fshion trend that I would call "androgynous". Guys wear tight pants and tight shirts, oftentimes those designed for women. (If you watch "Drake and Josh" on Nick, Drake would be considered Emo.) You can see where this is going...
Yesterday, C came home from his girlfriend's with a pair of jeans. Thinking nothing of it, he went to try them on. When he came out, I was a bit surprised. These jeans were TIGHT and low-rise. (C is 6'3" and 200 lbs. The jeans are a size 4!) When he asked me what I thought, I said "That I'm never going to be a grandfather."
This morning, he wore them to school along with a tight shirt with the top few buttons undone (apparently to show off his shaved chest)
I'm starting to think that his grilfriend is thinking of him as a life-sized "dress up" doll. Lordy!!
