Oh my goodness! There are so many options for men!! How could you only have T-shirt and pants and the variation of shorts! Oh, the plethora of choices that are available. Hats, fedoras. Oh, the shoes you can choose without having to decide on heel width and height! Sure, there are fewer choices for males than females, but to deny the power of a well-chosen tie, the right shirt, the cufflinks... The thing I like about male-dressing is that yes, you can go overboard, but it's difficult to screw up, yet you *can* be interesting. One could say decorating a house is difficult, and ends in the same boring result, but they're ignoring choices in paint color that vary away from some form of neutral. The same could be said for how many men dress.
One of my all-time favorite male looks is a deep purple or deep red shirt with a black and grey striped tie, grey slacks, black leather shoes. Then again, a friend of mine a little while back wore some khaki pants and a very finely patterned blue and white gingham shirt, and he looked fantastic... Not to mention, he was slightly unbuttoned and rather comfortable.
The choices are out there, you just have to be willing to look.
I find that yes, the choices are out there for women, there are just so many more pitfalls in our fashion choices.
