1. Well, if you wear more than one at a time, you just look like a dweeb.
That isn't what you meant? Oh.



Never mind.

2. no such thing
it's really the only way you guys get to make any kind of a fashion statement.... so having a lot of them is a really good idea.

3. Oh. So then you wouldn't be inclined to call them "corporate condoms"?
:evilgrin:

4. You know why lawyers wear neckties?
To keep the foreskin from rolling up over their chins!

5. not at all
I think men will have the right to complain about ties just as soon as they get a taste of what it's like to wear panty hose.

6. William Shatner wears pantyhose...
He says it reduces chafing when riding his horses in the countryside...

Mind you, I don't think that was what you were wanting to read, but the inconvenience of having to put on more clothing - that likely won't be seen because you're going to wear long pants or what not - is admittedly silly...

I love ties -- the colors and patterns... anything that isn't "the usual"...

13. Absolutely.
It is impossible to have too many.

The best way to bring some colour to one's clothes.

7. I dislike neckties
I find them pointless. I mean, what purpose do they serve other than silly male domination games. "Look I'm wearing a power tie, I have a big penis".
An artifice that should have been dumped a long time ago.

12. I got rid of all mine when I got divorced and moved out
I never have to wear them for work, and I don't frequent the kind of establishment where wearing a tie is expected.

I have left behind the Brotherhood of the Noose. And I feel no need to wear an arrow on my chest that points to my weener.

15. One at a time.
Wearing more than one necktie at a time is overkill. :hi:
