As you know, I am a little alternative with my style presentation.

I do not go about daily looking as I present myself here, as fun as that would be, it just is not practical.

However, I do go about in unusual styles, especially for a straight male.

I may be taking an awful risk here, but I feel I can trust members here.

this is an example of one of my more normal alternative styles.

Aside from one item presented all items are marketed as Masculine, or unisex. I wore this outfit for hanging with buddies for a gaming night. My friend and I went to restock the chips and snacks, and I got I think one "bad" look from this unpleasant looking gentlman. When at the store I had on my trench coat, that I let flow behind me like a cloak.

Aside from the social reason, can any of you say why this cannot be acceptable male attire?

Yes, you are seeing Pythos in his natural look as far as my face is concerned. I would have liked a little bit of makeup, but you know how people can be. I am already pushing boundaries with this outfit. It is funny I think I am pushing more boundaries going about like this, than when in my "preferred" look. A goth is outlandish in itself, but this is just fashion. LOL.
