when the fuck did all the skiers out there grow ovaries? there are about 20 threads on the first pages of ski gabber and gear talk, all relating to clothing and accessories? "what would look good with this?" "look at my new suit" etc etc. Not to mention the huge thread devoted entirely to what people wear. Is it really that important too all of you that your 'outfit' 'matches' with everything, and that your helmet and goggles 'complement' your clothing? And if that is not queer enough, just take a look at the latest trends in outerwear:
Last year it was that renamed baby blue from Oakley, and this year it is purple. Whats next, pink? Could you all chose any more feminine then to worry if you new goggles and helmet are going to go well with your purple matching outfit?
For a sport that is made up of primaraly guys there shure is a whole lot of estrogen floating around. Shit half the time affter some one posts an edit, the questions are about what they were wearing, rather then talking about the skiing.
So my question is: has it really gotten to the point where what you wear become this important? Is the show What Not to Wear going to start featuring skiiers. Leave the fasion to the cougers in aspen, and just worry about your skiing.
