So true. I shop once a year. This year it took me less than 3 hours from leaving home to returning with all the clothes and shoes I need for another year.

Once I find an item I like - shoes, jeans, t-shir, etc, I stick with it.

You sound like a shop-a-holic. I shop once every three years on Amazon.com for all the clothes and shoes I need. It takes about twenty minutes.

I do the same thing for the last few years. I have 3 pairs of the same shoes now, varying only in age.

Same here, I don't like changing things once I find something that I like. You see men that buy a lot of the same exact thing, multiples of shirts, shoes, and pants I have never seen this behavior with women.

A couple of items I can't find on Amazon. Also, a couple of times that arrived onece were not quite what I expected - maybe were manufactured in a different country and the model/size was not the same.

For clothes and shoes I still prefer to shop in the store, though I don't need to try all of them anymore.

Wearing the same clothes everyday - I figured out in high school, where we had to wear uniforms, how nice it is to not have to choose what to wear everyday.

I can see the testosterone plummeting.

Those guys can't afford testosterone levels any lower

The hidden oppression of males.

I only shop when the fungus gets so sticky, it takes a bit of skin off to get undressed.

Ha!

Takes me twice a year to buy clothes, maybe 30 min max. I started letting my wife buy my shirts because she has infinitely better taste than me.

She made me stop going shopping with her while we were still dating because she said I "ruin it".

This is so pre-2011 for me...

I've notice that it is very common for married men to let their wives buy their clothes. It seems to be almost universal.

My wife is the same. The only thing I buy and she knows not to try getting are my jeans, shoes, socks, hiking cloths.

Whenever I've gone shopping with the missus, the women are so frenzied they just walk around half naked and pop in and out of the dressing stalls flashing. I thought maybe I should bring fivers to toss.
