Things I Hate: Capri Pants
Needs of the Many ^

Posted on 07/16/2009 2:59:42 PM PDT by vaper69

Introducing a new series to Needs of the Many … “Things I Hate.” They are numerous, and they need to be shared.

In the inaugural post of “Things I Hate” I will take aim at the scourge of female fashion … capri pants.

I don’t know where the capri came from, and I don’t give a damn. They have all the glamor and charm of a bucket full of vomit, and that opinion is nearly universal among men. I have yet to meet a man who likes his woman to wear capris.

The irony is how ‘cute’ women seem to think capris are. Further proving that women are just as clueless about their fashion as men are about theirs. Trust me women, you look about as ‘cute’ in capri pants as a plumber’s hairy ass crack after 12 hours of cleaning up fecal matter in 120 degree heat. Alright, I take that back. The plumber still has more style than you.

They were called pedal pushers when I was a kid.

How about men wearing Capri pants? Grown men. It's unbelievable. I am died laughing when I saw pictures of a friend's father in Europe trying to fit in by wearing capri pants. Just ridiculous.

Capri pants are not a new invention. Pedal pushers, as they were once called, have been around since the ‘40s or ‘50s. What’s the problem?

The pants I’m talking about are dark jet black with no line or form. They look like the pants a man would wear with a funerial suit.

They’re called “Manpris”, if you can believe it.

Black or white capris that are VERY fitted can look nice if worn with a top that shows a bit of cleavage.

Biggest turn-off are non-stretch denim capris.

Ok, after a certain age or um stage, there should be as much coverage as possible without melting in the summer heat. I think they are a good compromise to catching a glimpse of cellulite at the grocery store.

OK. This is the last straw. Anti capri pants people: Get over it. Turn your head when you see one of us coming so you won’t have to puke.

I really hate posts like this but you’re right: Capris suck.

Just as I thought, written by a man. Why don’t he complain about the crack showing trousers/shorts/etc. that are being forced on us women? I shopped today, do you think a woman can find anything that fits up around their waist? NO! Designers apparently don’t know anything about what a lady is comfortable wearing these days. When a lady gets to middle age, she wants her clothes to fit properly, not showing the tummy bulge and rear crack! Speak up ladies, don’t let them force this style on us forever!!
