    Yeah, to be honest, I don't see the point. Most of the stuff will never be worn by any normal person, except maybe to a fancy dress party. I think freak show is maybe a better description. Maybe I'm just old-fashioned.

    Why is it that people think they can put weird clothes on a weird looking person and it will somehow be beautiful?!

    ...........if you don't like them, then you'll just have to support Frigga's Spindle and I, by buying our lovely designs. We would never send you out the door in a 6 foot hoopy snood or a dress that looks like it was made from Medusa's snaky hair.

    .....and FYI, doing your hair like a TellyTubby is never cool, no matter what runway you're mincing on.

    I am a bit puzzled- until the 1960's most men wore suits when they were going outside (regardless of class) and I begin to wonder why that custom disappeared.

    Perhaps all of us men should gather our last bits of self-respect, look after ourselves again and loose a few pounds and put on the suit again. I mean - we still have a role to play as breadwinners and might just as well show it.

    From what I can gather it's meant to mean that having your eyes shut is a positive?

    No...

    You said:

    Substitute (weird clothes) with - and (weird looking person) with - as weird is a word that is used primarily to describe something negative.

    Now substitute (beautiful) with + as beautiful is generally seen as something positive.

    Now basic rule of mathematics, - - is the same as +.

    Thus: - - = +
