Day 6: Thank God I'm a Guy

Being comfortable in and around your own home is what your home is for. People often walk around their homes in sleep wear, bathing suits and without certain items of clothing. I do so. It makes people feel more comfortable. People know that within their home walls they have no one to impress. If people had that attitude at all times, life would be a lot easier.

I arrived at my girlfriends house in my Speedo, padded belly and towel and not a word was said as to how ridiculous I look, for the simple reason they know I'm doing an assignment and that she doesn't expect me to get dressed up just to sit around her house. On the other hand if she was coming to my house should would make sure that before she leaves her room not even her front door that she is at least reasonably fashionable. Woman and especially are thought to have a natural instinct for self decoration (Entwistle,2000:22). There is a heavy emphasis placed on females and fashion (Entwistle,2000:22). These same codes of fashion seem to be more lenient on men regardless of what they look like. I'm getting a first had view as I'm dresses most inappropriately.
