Madam – I might be old fashioned, but it seems the youth of today are losing all sense of how to appear in public.
The boys swagger around town with their jeans and baggy pants hanging basically by their knees, their boxer shorts for everyone to see, with scruffy t-shirts or vests that could do with a good round in the washing machine.
The girls are none-the-better, with their tasteless style. Some look like they might have spent a few nights in a camp and could do with a tetanus shot.
Girls also seem to believe the more cleavage they show, the better. They always complain they can’t find Mr Right, but if they dress like they belong on a street corner, they are not going to find a knight in shining armour, but rather a creep in tin foil.
Look, one does not have to dress like they are going out to a dinner party every time they leave the house, but by having a little bit of self respect, you will not have to dress like a harlot or some gangsta wannabe from an American teen movie to impress others.
Come on kids, dress properly and people will most likely take you more seriously and not treat you like something the cat dragged in.
A wannabe gentleman
