Trends Guys Hate: Guess What? We Don’t Care!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Mich chapter.

I’ve been seeing a lot of this on the Internet lately: trends guys hate. The articles are all tragically the same: they feature several women’s fashion trends that guys absolutely despise. These trends include, but are not limited to:

 

Rompers

Dear boys, do you know how many trends we hate that you still rock? One of them is misogyny. But you still do it regardless.

If I want to wear something extremely girly, I damn well will. If I want to rock a beanie with a plaid shirt that makes me look slightly man-ish, I will.  If you want to rock those awful white sunglasses that most of you do, go right ahead.

I can’t stress this enough:

Girls, don’t let a guy dictate what you wear. Wear whatever you want, whether it’s in or not. We shouldn’t be judged solely by our clothes. I’m going to keep wearing high waisted shorts like my life depends on it. And I’ll keep rocking bright lipstick because it makes me feel like a bad ass, and who doesn’t love to feel like that? 

I'm a sophomore at the University of Michigan, majoring in Communications and Creative Writing. I like gifs, videos of people falling, and my cat. I don't take myself too seriously.
