Age is only a number, and besides, I am not going to follow the preaching of the older generation and dress like them. I really hate when I am told how to dress, as my style will not affect you in any way. I am my own generation and my generation did not grow up like yours. Why should we dress up like yours?
Life is about having fun and not about following the rules that set out by our forefathers. If you don't like it, that's too bad. I careless how you dress. I like the look of one dresses up in prince charlie, hose, and other highland gear. That's cool, but I will not dress in that style all the time.
I like my leather kilt. I like my New Rock Boots. I like Gothic Music. I like to rock out to Sex Pistols, Clash and Dead Kennedy. I like to groove to the tune of Nine Inch Nails, VNV Nation and Switchblade Symphony. And yes, I am over 30's and I am not dead or a walking dead. Life is about having fun. I like to have my fun and live my life to the fullest. It is so easy to live life according to the society. It takes a real man to defy the convention and live a life for himself.
Just in case you wonder, I drive a Volvo, work as a Recruiter and a father. I consider myself an adult because I have handled lots of life events with maturity.
Cheers Mate!!!
