To wonder why so many men are sporting an isolated moustache?

[MrsSlocombesCat]

They looked hideous in the seventies when men didn’t know better. Now they’re combining that terrible look with an even more terrible look - the mullet. Why do men seem to want to look like porn stars?

It’s never a lovely big Tom Selleck ‘tache these days either, always a ratty stringy affair on a similarly ratty looking bloke. Ugh.

I guess some of them think Ron Jeremy didn't have a truly terrible time? Odious little twerp that he is.

I haven't noticed this and hope it doesn't catch on here. I had a bit of a moustache phobia as a child and assumed any man with one was one of the 'strangers' I wasn't meant to talk to as they kidnap children!

Also hoping the beard/stubble trend goes away soon, must be time for clean shaven to come back into fashion....

They like how they look?
Much like overly made up women with spiders for eyelashes and ridiculously long nails think they look good?

As far as I'm aware, this style is called a "flow", and is common for ice hockey players.

I think it's fucking terrible looking 😂

Agreed. Taylor Swift’s fella looks ridiculous with his tache and dodgy outfits

I’m trying to Pavlov my husband into ditching the tache. when he shaves it I’m all over him, when he grows it back I’m like…. Urgh.

Going against the grain here and going to admit that i like them.. especially with the Australian style mullet! 😅

Because 80s style is back, seemingly. The mullets are so awful though.

I think on the right man a 'tache can look quite sexy.

Unfortunately I am regularly transported back to the 80s at the moment seeing young men with bum fluff on their top lips with a curly mullet. Also seeing lots of drainpipe trousers with a flash of white socks on the local high school lads. I feel ancient remembering it all first time round!

Not like the entire world is set up for the male gaze or anything 🤔

Worst thing is that wasn't even the first time! In the 80s it was a reprise of the Teddy Boy styles of the '50s. Truly nothing is ever new. Truly hate the broccoli hair though.

@MrsTerryPratchett , get over yourself! No it isn’t! Women have completely emasculated men and vicious ‘feminism’ has royally screwed relationships and family life.

Fair point - it was definitely first time round for me witnessing that look being in fashion though.

I like that different looks are coming back. For so long everyone looked the same, had the same styles , tilt was quite boring to me

Still hardly see any girls or young women with short hair, which was much more common when I was a teen in the 80s.

Everything comes around again. It was bound to I guess.

I feel not many men can carry off a stash, you need a very strong face, especially a strong jaw. It's not like a beard where it can hide a multitude of sins. Weak jaw or chin with lip hair tends to exaggerate the problem.

Plus, the bum fluff on young men makes them look about 12 which I think is not what they are going for.

I don't hate it as much as the caterpillar eyelashes and harpy nails on women though. They are scary and also seem debilitating.

If we're going to judge and laugh then what so many women are doing to their faes is much more worthy of ridicule

And Teddy boys were inspired by the Edwardians 😁

Not sure this PP's user name is quite accurate... 🙄

My partner says to me he's glad he's not young it's a different world.

Duck lips looks awful on women who get them injected. You see them walking hand in hand with their bodybuilding boyfriend and you think what a plastic relationship they have.

@Iloveandrewtatethanks

Would be more accurate.

I love a man with a sexy tache - so glad there are finally more around now it’s more in fashion 😂 you can always send them my way if you like!

(And I’m getting used to the Aussie mullets too actually)
