Male fashion going too far?

The modern human race never ceases to amaze me. I just read an article in the Times of India titled “Strut around in girlfriend fashion”. The article talks about the latest fashion around the globe being men wearing women’s attire. WTF?

Apparently, this isn’t new and has been sprouting around for years now but not with so much sincerity as this time around. Proof (as per the story) is Cristiano Ronaldo (for the uninitiated - the world’s highest paid footballer) recently spotted in hot pants, with pink fresh flowers in his hair and carrying a clutch.

In hindsight, it’s been in the making with the evolution of the metrosexual male and his male purse, manicure/pedicure and fairness creams among other things. Clearly, this new fashion dimension is being spearheaded by the proven alpha male and isn’t the doing of gay or bisexual humans. Also it isn’t the alpha male in his childhood cross dressing either, this is serious!

I have no problem with the evolution of the male species, but my curiosity gets the better of me to question how we got here. While I’m no authority on human evolution and changing needs, I do believe our vanity is playing up more, as a result of the fast and competitive life we live today and our need to stand out. If my assessment was correct, then Cristiano doing something like doesn’t make sense as he doesn’t need to stand out! Or does he? Maybe since he isn’t scoring as frequently to keep him in the news maybe this does 

Whatever the answer, I wouldn’t be surprised if I see men wearing dresses next.There is absolutely nothing that is beyond us and let know one ever tell you otherwise.
