Why do women have such a hard on for men wearing boots?

>some gay looking MFA fucker wearing desert boots passes by me and gf
>say "heh, nice elf boots"
>"Anon, you'd be a lot sexier if you got a pair of boots like those."

Is this some sort of daddy issue?

There are several ways of wearing boots. You can do it all mfa with your jeans cuffed and the shit or you can do it like an actual non-homosexual non-hipster man with some taste.

Its best to be adaptable to all styles, so you can rock streetwear, workwear/dadcore & whatever else for the appropriate occassion (or if you wanna dress just for girls cause youre a beta).

boots are seen as more uncommon amongst the male wardrobe, as the average male wardrobe consists on sneakers (Vans, Nikes, Converses) & graphic tees.
Plus the blah blah masculinity shit.

Because boots are the epitome of masculine footwear. Now obviously there's a massive difference between Red Wings Heritage and Clark's DBs. I still have a pair of Chukka's I got when I first learned about /fa/ and copped the fuccboi uniform, and they're easily the most complimented pair of shoes I own (qt's, relatives, and some random guy at Starbucks one time). Boots are nice and safe, yet a step (or 2) above normal footwear that people who don't give a shit about how they dress look (and the grills notice it).

Because in a girl's mind:

- boots = maturity/capability/masculinity

-trainers = immaturity (teenagers, children, manchildren) /"fashion over function"/lack of money (boots are generally more expensive than trainers)

My advice would be to find a gf that can appreciate aesthetics more

seems like youre the autistic one tbh. its fine to like streetwear and dadcore and dress in both when you feel like it, but to have special sets of clothes for specific, arbitrary social occasions is some herb shit, espec if you dont like it, which was the point you missed. living ur life like a gayass gamefaqs walkthrough is p dumb

To be honest mate, you're criticizing is a sign of weakness to her. Your criticism of mfa dude came from a place of inferiority, then she thought you might be inferior. It is best not to criticize. Be secure with yourself. Women like that most.

Ankle boots psychologically convey the idea that whilst they are civilised, the wearer is also prepared to step on your neck if the need arises.

There are exceptions... ankle boots and any bottoms where the ankle is visible (3/4 length, or shorts). Then you just look insane.

No. Get temperate or actual cold-weather army boots.

Jungle boots are designed to let sweat out to stop your foot rotting off in humid conditions. Wearing them in winter is a good way to get frost bite.
