I'm a man, and I own several suits, but not a black one.

Why? Clubbing?

The ONLY appropriate attire for a funeral is black suit or dark navy. Anything else is trashy and disrespectful. fricking heathens.

I mean, I don't go clubbing anymore, so I guess there's no need for me to own a black suit?

Just seems odd that you think it's mandatory. The only places were I think it would be appropriate would be clubbing, or a funeral, and I can think of several other types of suits that would be just as appropriate in those instances.

I hope you're not that guy that wears a black suit for business.

Was this in New Orleans? I've been to several funerals in NOLA where people have shown up in leisure suits.

I have a khaki/white seersucker suit that I love, but I rarely wear it.

Beach wedding, Easter (maybe), etc.

You've now brought up clubbing 4 times. What in the frick are you talking about?

Black suits for wedding or funeral. Wearing anything but black to a funeral is trashy.

I haven't owned a black suit since I was in 5th grade. Nobody owns black suits except old men and children.

Dark navy or dark grey with appropriate coloring works.

Unless you own 10+ suits and they're all very expensive, you shouldn't own a black suit

Only appropriate if he was holding a Mint Julep and wearing a straw hat, otherwise no.

A navy suit or dark grey suit is certainly appropriate and much more versatile.

Honestly, because when I think black suit, I think of some guido in a black suit with no tie with a shirt that has too many buttons unbuttoned at some dance club.

This is true. It's such an odd thing, but what is even more odd is for someone to think that owning one is absolutely mandatory.

I have one. As well as my high quality black one.

I love how if you have more than one suit now it means you have shitty suits
