levianthen Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Yeah, "wife beaters" are cool but I've never worn one, and I never knew they were called that Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/492911-men-do-you-wear-a-wife-beater/page/2/#findComment-587871252 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kombolcha Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 i used to wear those small/thin hanes white tees as an undershirt, but they neck messes up to easily and just doesn't feel right any more. so now i've been wearing wife beaters for months now and it's the best thing in the world.. it also makes you feel more buff :laugh: but i always wear white tees or colored tees on top.. PRO CLUB! are the best. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/492911-men-do-you-wear-a-wife-beater/page/2/#findComment-587879341 Share on other sites More sharing options...
linsook Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 knew em as tank tops while growing up. wasnt until recently, i'd say 4-5 years, that the hiphop scene popularized the term wife beater IMO. i wear them as an undershirt to button ups, but more often than not, thin white t's as an undershirt.

According the the American version of english, lol. dont agree with you there, what you call vests are waistcoats? arnet they :wacko: as for wife beaters, there just vests but usually have a higher neck then say a runinng vest Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/492911-men-do-you-wear-a-wife-beater/page/2/#findComment-587879363 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninjakarl Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I remember when I first found out what "wifebeater" meant, this chick at work said "Hey karl look, Anthony's wearing a wifebeater.." I had the most confused look on my face... Then she told me what she meant :p Oh and no, I don't wear them.

Japlabot Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 "Wife beater" is such a stupid name, I'ld feel like someone that beats up women if I wore one. Locally (In Australia) they are known as Singlets or Tank Tops Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/492911-men-do-you-wear-a-wife-beater/page/2/#findComment-587879411 Share on other sites More sharing options...
