I don't want to leave that impression. Typically at home, I change into corduroy jeans and an older shirt, sweater, or rugby top during the colder months. Then I worry much less about possible drips, spills, or tears in the day-to-day domestic activities expected of husbands in 2015.WSTKS-FM Worldwidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14173042438761572040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259686799198265906.post-21139885735289963802015-02-22T07:24:03.388-08:002015-02-22T07:24:03.388-08:00Agreed.

I still maintain, however, that if a man has the correct neck size for his shirt and ties his tie correctly, it will not feel like a hangman's noose. Lots of men have he attitudes they do because 1) they simply are not used to wearing a tie and/or are hardly ever called on to do so, and 2) they have rather unpleasant attitudes lurking below the surface about many of the people who do wear neckties.
