Men should wear tight-fitting, belly-baring shirts - and, in fact, more and more of them are. 

And if you just read that sentence and filed it under “Things That Should Never, Ever Be Said for $800,” join the club. Unfortunately the New York Times ain’t in it.

The publication ran an entire piece claiming that men - as in, men who think they're men, not just the kind who pretend they’re women - are setting a new fashion trend by cropping their t-shirts to expose their midriffs, or simply buying crop tops from the women’s section of the store if they can't find ones short enough for their liking.
 

“More modest styles hit right at a waistline, but many are cropped short enough to expose a navel. Some wearers are making theirs by taking scissors to old T-shirts; others buy them off the rack, often from stores’ women’s sections,” the NYT explains.

The outlet goes on to give several examples of seemingly regular dudes wearing belly-baring shirts a la the kind a gym rat might throw on to do leg-lifts…before tossing in a photo of a shrimpy-looking guy in a way-to-small button-down blouse right above a picture of two dudes in crop tops smooching on a public sidewalk.

Which kinda gives the game away just a bit...though, to be fair, the most offensive part of that scene might be the fanny pack. Either way, an assault on the eyes, all around.

Now, a normal and decent-minded person might see this garbage and immediately begin praying for the sweet meteor of death. Humanity had a good run, and surely this is the end.

On the other hand, perhaps this new trend - and the media’s resounding applause for it - marks a good sign for women. After all, in a world in which common sense and general decency are increasingly difficult to find, where masculinity is demonized and shunned, dudes frolicking about proudly displaying their hairy belly buttons makes it far easier to spot the few real men we’re praying are still out there.

And hint? They’re not prancing around looking like Britney Spears circa 1997.
