Things you wish were socially acceptable

[willywonka666]

Like on Seinfeld when George mentioned that he would wrap himself in velvet-if it were socially acceptable...

Nowadays multi colored hair at any age isn't surprising, but a friend and I were taking and we both agreed that it'd be cool to dress like Freddie Mercury-and I'm talking his onstage stuff-if it were socially acceptable.

So what about you? Anything outlandish you'd like to do or wear or anything really, if all eyes weren't on you for doing it?

Shaming anyone who acts like an asshole towards an employee. I rarely get involved when people do that because it is not worth it to me to possibly go to jail, get into a physical confrontation, etc. But I always go out of my way to comfort the employee (if they didn't deserve it lol).

I could happily wear shorts, vest and flip flops for the rest of my life if it was socially and ecologically acceptable.

Now and then in summer I would love to go "no pants" I think a lot of people would.

Would it really be so bad if we all hung out...so to speak.

Move to Australia

Not only are they welcomed, there allowed

I'm growing my hair out which as a man is already on the borderline of social acceptability.

I wanted the Jon Snow look but it's actually more of a budget Jim Morrison, either way it seems fur would complete the look. Sadly without their looks and professional reason to be wearing it be mocked forever if I wore leather trousers and/or a fur coat. Hell even double denim is frowned upon for some weird reason.

[Heartbreaker]

Women having body hair.

Sometimes it's just a pain in the ass to shave or wax. Thank god the weather here is getting cold, so I can wear pants to cover my legs.

[Fundertaker]

Trenchcoats. Of all colors and sizes. And trenchvests. I'd be a regular Seto Kaiba if I weren't looked at funny in the street.

[The Thread Barbi]

Farting. It's always farting.

It is in Brazil

clawing and tearing at one's skin in anxious frenzy.

... the f*** YOU looking at?

[Ryback on a Pole!]

Matrix killed the trenchcoat. I've got one, had one for years but still often get a "Neo" joke.

[The Heartbreak TWERK]

There should just be an asshole clause.

Like any time anyone of any high or low status is being a dickhead, you should be allowed to just let them know it's time to dial it back.

[Push R Truth]

Well worn corduroy pants are the height of pants-wearing-comfort. They feel so damn good but some jerkass will always make a comment when I wear them in the office.

The only thing better is no pants, and I don't think that's going to be socially acceptable for quite a while

Those idiots in Colorado might also have had something to do with it.

It would be nice to be able to be freer with gender presentation without having to worry about transphobic arseholes.

Also, if a customer is being unpleasant, retail workers should be allowed to call them out on it.

Seconded along with hats. It's impossible to wear a hat without getting the "Lol neckbeard fedora" comments, and all the (unsurprising) baggage associated with that look.

Also, cowboy boots (within reason). Also also, tassles. If anything's fair game, gimme a nice tassled jacket. Also also also, men wearing generally garish/colourful/floral type coats/jackets- the sort of stuff you only see either in women's fashion, glamrock, or 80s wrestling.

...I have dreadful taste.

I know, bro. I know.

I'm not really mad because I like the Matrix, but it gets tiresome after the 10th one that day.

Move here and you can dress like you just stepped off set of the latest John Wayne movie. You'll still like a lunatic, sorry it's true, but it's completely socially acceptable.

[DiBiase is Good]

Being able to like songs by disgraced artists without being judged for it.
For example, Gary Glitter is a vile Human being but if you go out and buy his greatest hits album, does that make you a paedophile? Of course not. Yet it seems that some people make the comparison. Even liking a particular song of his can be seen as "condoning his actions" by some. Tell that to crowds of American football games where one of his hits was a staple for so long.
Rolf Harris is a disgusting man but his version of Two Little Boys (yes, it's an unfortunate name) was a song I listened to all the time when I was a kid. The fact that Rolf was a pervert isn't going to change my love for the song.
