Tank Tops?

Any thoughts on tank tops? I think they're great for the gym or jogging and around the house and yard, but beyond that, I'm not so sure.

So, what are your thoughts? Do you wear them other places? Any thoughts on them at all?

Sure why not?
Weddings - brides maids, need I say more?
Church - Hey that's the way the lord made me!
Job interviews - Show them you are beyond "rolling up your sleeves" and getting to work!








Naaaa - just kiddin - the beach and pool are the only places I wear one.

NEVER NEVER NEVER unless you are going for the total white trailer trash look.......there is a reason that a particular style of tank top is referred to as a "wife beater"

If you do, the do it right and don't forget the beer gut, the old chevy or cadillac, start smoking and dont bother shaving...

Only on a nice looking woman....... Then again if you are 300 pounds, beat your wife, enjoy crystal meth, and live in a trailer park go for it.

Tank tops, tube tops, and lycra; I equate them all about the same if its a man wearing them. . . .

I'm 233 pounds with 18 inch arms at 6 foot 3 and I look good.

I couldn't beat my wife if I wanted to she fights dirty and sleeps with a switch blade. Srs.

I never tried drugs in my life. Srs. But I enjoy meatballs and homemade gravy.

We own two homes.

There goes your theories right down the toilet.

I'll sleep with silk tank tops, but would never wear one outside the house.

I hate when I get an obese man in my dental chair, hairy back and shoulders, and he's wearing a tank top! Really? He thought that was appropriate to wear to the dentist?
