I made this just to prove you were just making fun of him for being fat.

The truth emerges. It's not gender, it's the volume that matters.

Is it the volume or the mass that matters? What if someone was wearing an inflatable suit and then overalls on top of the inflatable suit?

I can't speak to the inflatable part, but people in fat suits that weigh little, they still look fat.

More like people in redneck costume. Pretty sure they could look much better if they were wearing everyday clothing or a better fitting overall.

Edit: both straps are right of their nipples, and their face is overexposed and they are glinting due to glare

It's from a show. Letterkenny. A Canadian comedy about some wholesome farmers in a small town.

This might sound ridiculous but I recommend watching with subtitles on. The accents are strong and the dialog is quick.

Eww, I got classist identity politics propaganda in my feed.

Don't spread classist propaganda. Overalls are sturdy trousers for heavy work. The one on the top's job is to look pretty. The one on the bottom does some hard, manual labour in these clothes.

I'm not saying one's better than the other. Just that these people are graded on the same scale thah different jobs don't satisfy.

surewhynotlem 4 points 7 days ago

Interesting take. I didn't see this as classist. I saw this as attractiveness preference. OP is only attracted to people in overalls if they have big manly hands that they use to save you or feed you.

That said, my wife looks great in overalls so I don't agree with OP.

I don't think it counts as “overalls” if it only covers half his torso.

That's what the garment is called. The ones with sleeves and everything are called coveralls.

Granted, the "overall" search also gave me at least some of those trousers, but generally it seemed to favour the distinction.

See we just made a post about how joking about women doing plastic surgery isn't funny.

But this isn't even that. It's straight up not a mene. It's just you telling you find fat men in overall repulsive. That's your choice. But it's not a meme

In German those things are called „Latzhose“ which means „bib-pants“, and I think that’s beautiful.

Well there was Lawnmower Man which featured a pretty hot dude in just overalls, although, he had the mind of a child, so as a child myself I had a confused boner over that. But otherwise yeah, even the gays can't make overalls hot.

In the original short story, I believe the dude was more like the one in the image posted here. The movie was so unrelated to the short story it was almost impressive.

there was a former coworker who wore overalls and he pretty much workouts at a gym, so yea it works for buff guys. fat people dont fit clothes very well so its very unappealing to the eyes.

Definitely for a time in '80s kids wear. I did see adults then (and more recently) wearing them. But mostly farmers and mechanics. Not sure if it were ever adult fashion back then

Not for men. It was in fashion for young women and kids only.

That big front pocket on the other hand is very nice. I really liked the practicality when I had it as work uniform.
