Go to Brooks Brothers and imagine you're trying to cosplay as Patrick Bateman. I know it's hard to get away from wearing Rick Owens black trash bags, but eventually you'll get it right.

the main things are the glasses and the hair

don't get glasses that make you look like a redditor

don't have facial hair if it doesn't look good


that's about it honestly

some clothing to watch out for is anything stereotypically masculine ie boots flannels etc, comes off as overcompensating

>>11801006
this is me btw

how im doing

>>11801008
i wet shave everyday and i use pic related

>>11800985
Don't be fat. Have a visible jaw. Wear your clothes with obvious confidence. Don't grow a shitty beard, or worse, a goatee. Don't wear pants that are tight on your thighs if you have big thighs. Don't wear anything with argyle. Don't have that stupid poofy Oddish haircut so many guys have.

To me, nu-males looks like lesbians trying to pull of #menswear.

>>11801010
relaxed mafioso, i like it

>>11801019
Are you me?
Model M and similar glasses shape. Is that an SSK?

numaleness is a state of mind

caring about coming across as a numale automatically makes you one. no amount of asking strangers on the internet to dress you will change this fact

>>11801237
no ssk
i want one tho

>>11801255
Same. 3 101s, and no SSKs. Pity they're so expensive.

>>11800985

just be the opposite of this and by opposite I mean tall, good looking, wavy hair, leather jacket and bleh blah bleh

just dont be a beta cuck

>>11801291
The definition in this photo is completely wrong. The internet and its retards just takes something, applies their wrong opinion or facts and spits it out wrong again.
A nu male is an effeminate male who metrosexually takes care of his body and has liberal believes. It's that simple. There is no "you have to be 20-30 condition" or othere nonsense in that list.

>>11800985
stop posting facebook memes for one

>>11801008
funny i remember hearing a year or two ago that boots and flannels are considered "girly" but thats probs cause of the numales right?

>>11801248
what the fuck ugly fucking numale in that picture gay haircut, gross ass shoes , those faded 80s jeans, and plaid im about to puke

>>11801291

>wearing a leather jacket
>like the wannabe cool rocker people do

shiggydiggdoooo

>>11801568
This

Even Patrick Bateman was a nu-male, despite them now being le art of le manliness tier now, I imagine James Dean and Steve McQueen were nu-males back in the 50's and 60's too.

>>11801291
There are a lot of tall nu males. Being shorter helps cultivate a better personality. Tall guys usually have shitty personalities (the same as attractive women) because they think they can get away with just being tall.

>>11801670
>2016
>not having a leather jacket

I'm the furthest thing from a nu male and I wear a leather jacket.

Ebin thread

I mean, I'm no expert but
not dressing like a homosexual is a
good start

By not being a faggot, both in personality (reddit) and looks (fa).

>>11801975
keep lurking newfag

>>11801034
I once bought something similar on the left side because Kanye and Jay-Z were wearing them. I'm a tall, slender white dude. Probably looked ridiculous

>>11801777
t. manlet

Roid and become swole as fuck.

>>11800985
Get a gym membership. Lift weights.

Buy a couple guns.

Drive a wrx or a truck.

Stand with masculine posture.

>>11801291
so does this mean i should swap out my glasses for contacts? or are only some glasses nu-male tier?

>>11801777
lmao

when will they fucking learn?

>>11802744
Luft weights and act masculine. That's all there is to it.

>>11802751
>act masculine
does that mean acting like a douchebag and treating women poorly? cause if so then im pretty masculine already

>>11801010
reminds me of this semi retarded guy everyone made of in hs.

>>11801291
This is so passive aggressive. He basically hates liberals and decided to attribute things he finds ugly or annoying to them. A lot of it makes no sense. Beard? Prematurely balding? 20-30 yrs old? These things are not determined by opinions.

>>11801010
Reminds me of this semi retarded kid everyone made fun of in hs.

>>11801248
Top fuckin kek

>>11802846

there is some truth to the nu-male thing, but 4chan loves to attribute it to feminization of culture or something. in reality it's just the opposite path from the alt-right: as socially awkward nerds grow up, they can either try to fit in (by choosing overly trendy glasses, hairstyles, clothing, and hobbies), or not (which is the 4chan audience). 4chan hates "nu-males" because they're basically the same sort of people, but tryhards. people who sideline their own sense of self-awareness to try to fit into a culture that loves performative nerdiness.

4chan is the contrarian version of these people - the nu-males are just the conformist side of 4chans demographics.

ultimately, the people who take the 4chan route have a chance to escape. instead of turning their self-criticism and self-hatred into tumblr posts and louis ck worship, people on 4chan may wallow in their own misery, but at least have some real idea of how the world sees them. they might be too hard on themselves and exaggerate this, but this drives genuine change rather than finding some cultural niche where you can remain a child forever.

>>11803458
this is really accurate

>>11800985
Just get dubs
Than u won't be nu male :DD
Liek dis

>midlife crisis imminent

>>11803458
this is deep you should write a paper on this

>>11800985

Don't get thick frame glasses

>>11801006

Shut the fuck up, MFA cuck.

>>11803458

THIS is true.

>>11800985

Lift weights, eat a lot.

Get a gym membership.

I would start out with stronglifts 5 x5 and basically follow the guide

>>11801777
lmao, manlets will never learn!

t. tall, slim, handsome, and look 5yrs younger than current age.

>>11804151
Of course.

Would someone on the internet do that? Just tell lies?

>>11803458
Wrong. 4chan retards didn't have a choice to be part of society or shunned. They couldn't fit in and this is what made them angry. Their brain wiring is all shitty and makes them lash out at people who are well-adjusted. 4chan didn't provide an escape, but a way to shelter yourself and dive deeper into lunatic theories and antisocial behavior.

>>11800985
Don't associate with them or act like a fag. Simple as fuck. If you look like you voted for Bernie you're doing it wrong.

>>11805980

True.

>>11801291
Second one from the top on the far right is the only one there that shouldn't be there. Maybe the dude holding a pint of Guiness as well.

If you don't want to look like a nu-male, at the very least, don't pull dumbass faces in photos.

dadcore

>>11805949
And what else can you do other than stand around and peacock?

You're on a taiwanese butt plug forum bragging about how handsome you are. Kill yourself.

>>11805834
>SEETHING

>>11803458

there is a way to retain your sense of self awareness and still lead a healthy and active social life. you just need to build up enough testosterone to espouse your twisted worldview in a cheery and comical way. that's that I do at least.

>>11801777

This is what manlets actually believe

>>11803458
>4chan hates "nu-males" because they're basically the same sort of people, but tryhards

Please.
Most of the "alt right" are massive tryharding faggots as well. They are just tryharding contrarian faggots instead of tryharding conformist faggots.

>finding some cultural niche where you can remain a child forever.

You did this on purpose.
There is no way you wrote that and didn't realize you were word for word describing fucking 4chan.

>tfw shit tier beards genes so I shave everyday
>god tier hair genes so even though I'm pushing 30 I still have a full head of hair with a perfect hairline
>perfect vision so no glasses
>5'9" manlet
Can't win them all, but at least I avoided most nu-male traits

>>11805980
Not true, I'm sick of all the anti-4chan posts i see everyday.

>>11807295
transition

>>11802744
No, embrace glasses, and wear whatever style looks good for your face. This includes thick-rimmed glasses, as they can indeed look good.

Don't let /pol/ shitposters cuck you out of wearing a wide variety of glasses styles.

>>11805980
Better to do that than to be a fucking sell out who parrots what everyone else says and pidgeonholes themselves.

>>11807737
No, I'm all man you degenerate faggot

>>11801010
I like it. Personally I feel the shoes should be more "plain" as in less "scrambled" letters and colors around.

You could get Adidas Superstars and literally just do Tommy Vercetti cosplay

>>11800985
>>11801008
This and don't wear anything in irony, or in excessively loose or tight cuts.

They've really cornered the entire market so it's really more a matter of posture and attitude than any of this.

>TFW all your winterware is boots and flannel
>TFW you have to deliberately buy the most redneck-tier shit possible to dodge affiliation with these obnoxious pricks

>>11801008
>>11807915
>boots are "nu-male"
>excessively loose is "nu-male"
>excessively tight is "nu-male"
You guys are ridiculous.

I can't figure out who are the most cucked: the "nu-male" stereotype, or the people in this thread who timidly avoid a wide variety of vague styles for fear of looking like said "nu-male."

I might lean toward the latter.

It's what I know. I'm a bitter, jaded old fag now but being 5'7 never stopped me from getting laid when I was younger.

But please...continue to tell us how the world really works from your parents basement.

>>11803458
Is your shift key broken?

You wouldn't do shit faggot

>>11809364
>tfw exactly ideal female height
feelsbadman

You gotta pick a style and go balls to the wall with it. Just don't be boring and ordinary and you will climb out of the nu-male zone

>>11803458

This sounds like the plot of a movie about a higschool and its two opposite little groups of students, and after all the opposition and fighting they find out theyre all the same and they live happily ever after, after a really emotional scene with a profound speech by a member of both sides.
