But who the fuck genuinely looks at Oakleys and thinks, yeah that’s a cool look that doesn’t make me look completely out of touch with basically every part of the modern day
For a woman having children I would be surprised if it doesn’t accelerate it. The amount of impact a pregnancy has in hair/teeth and such is higher than we like to report.
For guys, stress and lack of sleep doesn’t help much
I bought my current pair of sunglasses from the WalMart fishing equipment aisle, because they were cheap, give good coverage and have UV protection. I hope nothing else about me affords even the distant possibility that I will be confused for a MAGAt. I don’t YouTube from my car, for one.

I mean, they’re sunglasses. Probably way overpriced for what they are. But they’re something to keep the sun out of your eyes when you’re out fishing or working outside or whatever. What would be the alternative to that kind of “sport” style, or aviators?
Tbf aviators are a classic style that doesn’t fall into the same category IMO, if you dress appropriately for the look (and have the right shaped head for them ofc, there’s not really a one-style-fits-all for sunnies), aviators can look pretty good
The other main versatile style you see a lot is the wayfarer kind popularised by Ray-Ban
I was thinking about getting the Oakleys that are UV and impact protection for my workbench (and if I’m somewhere where I need to worry about something landing in my eye), but I’d probably never wear them for fashion.
I prefer to appreciate all the little ways these people telegraph that they’re just absolute shit so you don’t even have to interact with them in the slightest
I’m a middle-aged white guy and hate that I can’t wear the wraparound douche bag shades. They’re the most comfortable and practical for outdoor activities.
I don’t mean for anyone here to catch a stray

I mean I have Oakley sunnies but they’re just sunglasses I don’t feel like they’re part of my cultural identity.
I have wrap-around sunglasses because my commute is north-south and I don’t like the sun coming into my eyes from the side.
I’m also losing hair due to genetics.
Apparently this makes me look like a bigot.
I know it’s because of genetics for me, but man sometimes do I wonder if my diet/life choices have done nothing but get me there faster.
My theorie is that children help to accelerate it.
There have actually been studies that show the oxytocin released from rearing children increases hair growth in men. Study
For a woman having children I would be surprised if it doesn’t accelerate it. The amount of impact a pregnancy has in hair/teeth and such is higher than we like to report.

Oakleys were cool when they were in high school. They stopped updating their worldview when they graduated (or, more likely, dropped out).
Note: I am old and I also wear sunglasses that are probably cringe. I don’t wear them in my profile photos, though.
Well Mark Zuckerberg apparently does.
Which of course only supports your point.
I’m sure he’s only wearing them because he thinks other people think they’re cool

And whether you buy Oakleys or Ray-Bans, they’re owned by the same company. Hurray capitalism!
My Maui Jims got bought by some giant fashion Corp and I’m heartbroken

They make more conventional looking stuff too. I have some non-sunglasses from them.

You can in fact still wear the comfy douchebag shades. And just, not be a douchebag.
For real. Who gives a fuck that some asshole is going to be prejudiced against you for wearing some sunglasses?
Maybe just don’t judge people by innocuous items they wear huh?
(Clarifying- agreeing with you)
Better coverage of cowardice
