Yea since I can't be respectful in a pair of shorts... This whole dress thing goes back to when on rich people could afford suits.. So they had some merit... Now any swinging dick can go to men's warehouse and get 42 ties and 17 pin stripe suits for 19.99 plus s&h. So it really doesn't mean shite anymore... Except people like to feel important so they put on clothes that they think makes them important.

I agree a suit should be worn at occasions like this. But like I said, this is just not something men bitch about. If you see a guy wearing something other than a suit, sure you notice it, maybe even shake your head a little at them. But past that, let it go.

Aesthetics, man. Why have a wedding in a nice church and not in a shitty one? Why have a reception at a nice venue and not a shitty one? Why shell out money for flowers and decorations? You add to the experience whether you like it or not. If you have a beach wedding or some ceremony at the lions club, then fine, wear your jeans and steel toes

I have to agree with Cosmo here. Anything less than semi-formal (coat, tie, slacks) for a wedding or a funeral is just disrespectful.

And is there a rule book that says hey this is what we are going to wear to the grocery store and this to work and this on vacation? I think we should just dress like people from the future... They always wear the same thing

That's fine. Just know that me and 99% of all other men think bitching about what another man is wearing is as gay as two dudes rubbing schlongs. And for the record, I also wear suits to occasions where a suit is called for.

Good to know I can wear something to a restaurant that will ruin your meal. If I do it enough times your self respect will be low enough to have you blowing bus boys behind the dumpster.

I try and wear a suit whenever I can. Gotta dress classy, because I might not act classy.

I like to dress one step above the groom, just so everyone knows I'm the real deal. People who dress well get treated better than sloppy dressers. If this isn't already Considered a fact, someone needs to go ahead and do the research as a formality.

People shell out money because they think it makes them look good in front of everyone that attends.... when in reality it's just another wedding / event. It's not about the other people it's about you...

Do people actually care what people wear to weddings beside the bride. Besides the fact that weddings don't mean much anymore besides for friends and family talk about how much they spent. Just another pissing contest in life

Until this thread I assumed half the people there didn't care about that.
