Quote - in real life men don't need as many clothes and shoes as women anyway.
'm sorry, but I no longer accept that lame excuse And that's just what it is: an increasingly lame excuse to ignore a very vocal market segment that has been pretty studiously written off. Of course male stuff doesnt sell -- because there really isnt any! Truly, how long has it been since anything -- for Michael, Hiro, or David -- showed up? And please, dont tell me its because everyone's waiting on M4. That excuse ran out months ago.
Face it, the merchants just dont like having to think beyond skimpy little dresses, impractical armour, and yet another bikini set. It's a harsh reality, but it's true. And yes, they sell - because they're all that're offered. Yeah, different stylings every now and then, but it's all the same stuff, over and over again.
So sorry, but that whole "men dont need as much as women" really doesnt pan out anymore. Were we to accept that, one would have to ask, just how many bikinis do women need anyway?
