Oi MF, I've found a supplier for you, assuming you can scrape the cash together.

You need to shop hanging around gay boutiques . I know you like to be disgusted by all the horrible little queers graphically discussing their sex lives, just as you did when you worked in gay majority offices in various European cities in your youth.Originally posted by wim121 View PostTry ebay, loads of crafty things on there. That's where the OH gets her material. Maybe it is your antiquated language?
I find hetrosexual clothing nigh on impossible to find. In my youth, burtons and virtually every high street mens store, used to sell normal clothes. No logos or writing, just a nice comfortable one colour top or pants.
Now all clothing targeting men is lacy or even in places like m&s, skin/slim fit. So I either have the choice of buying cardigans and courdroys targeted at a 60 year old, lacy and vivid colours targeted at queers or logos and babble on clothing making me a corporate prostitute.
Is it so unreasonable to not want any of those three choices? It has got to the point that I find it difficult to find appropriate clothing outside of london.
Start shopping important more rugged places. You'll fit in better and find the clothing you're looking for.Comment
