Update: I personally don't like them. My ex use to buy them for me and I always felt so uncomfortable. She was dressing me just like her Ken doll. I even had to wear the flesh colored plastic underwear.

I guess I'm the odd one out here (or me and "Anonymous" are the odd couple out) because I like them. Of course it depends on the style of it; if it were one of those nasty, cheap synthetic jobs, forget it.
If it's black or another dark color, nicely fitted and of a good quality fabric, it looks really stylish. Especially if the guy has a nice upper-body shape.
Having said that, they don't look good on just anyone.
But flesh colored plastic underwear are sooo sexy!!!!! lol jk! Hmm guys in turtlenecks....I dunno I'm an ear and neck person and I think that turtlenecks would just get in the way lol. Plus I wear turtlenecks sometimes and I wouldn't want a guy that dresses similar to me. Maybe your ex knew you don't like them but got some kind of satisfaction out of seeing you wear something you didn't like because she bought it for you.
Lol sounds like it's for the best that she's an ex hun you deserve someone waaay better than that! - 6 months ago
Question Asker
There were times when I thought she was intentionally trying to dress so that I gave off the vibe that I was homosexual. Would girls do that? She always wanted me to wear pink. I wasn't having it! - 6 months ago
Answerer
Well some guys make pink look friggin hot,but I'd imagine some girls would do that. It's really funny that you bring this up because my boyfriend asked how I thought he looked in his glasses today. I think that they're cute on him,but he can't stand them. I told him what matters most is how he feels in them. If I wore a striped shirt and plaid skirt and he thought it was the sexiest thing ever,I would feel hidious and wouldn't wear it. I think the same respect should apply to everyone. - 6 months ago

No. Not mock, not full, not anything. No turtlenecks on guys. It's not the 70's
I have to disagree with you a bit on that reasoning. Although it clearly is not the 1970's, the styles that were worn then are more popular now than they were 10 years ago. I often drive through the university section and see all kinds of odd looking kids. - 6 months ago
Answerer
That's not my only reasoning for not liking turtleneck's on men, but I didn't want to get into a long explanation. Personally, I think they don't flatter a man period. I think a man's neck is very masculine and the jawline is too...a turtleneck takes away from that view...I hear you Dean...anyone wears anything that makes them feel good these days and I for one, am all for that....I might be one of those odd looking kids you refer too...yikes! - 6 months ago
Tip of the day, and maybe your lifetime: Trendy does not mean cute! Ever see a bald man in a turtleneck? I have and he looked like an uncircumsised ding a ling! Tell me THAT's mature and sophisticated lol. Whatever floats your boat though lol - 6 months ago
Kinda gay. What am I talking about I just wore one like a few months ago. I don't know dude, in public I felt kind a gay with it on, haven't worn one since. If David Beckham wore one I think he'd pull it off lol but it just doesn't suit guys like us. Moto jackets are wear it's at!
I love the Mitch Hedberg skit and he says: I hate turtlenecks, it's like a really, really weak guy is trying to strangle me, Why? I'll stick to my v-necks, give the neck some freedom!" Lol, Mitch is awesome.
And if a muscular guy is to wear a turtle neck, and he has really broad shoulders, the he usually gives it a funny look. Don't do that, lol.
And I also think of the scrubs episode where J.D. is ashamed that someone pointed out that he has a slightly larger than normal size adams apple and he gets self conscious, and he wears a turtleneck to cover it - but he is hiding something, that's the point there.
Well I have a few ribbed turtleneck sweater. Its a kind of bourne identity stuff which looks pretty cool. But as far as plain old cotton turtle necks. Id burn them and never look back.
Are they still around? I haven't seen one in years. Remember the "dickey"; that fake turtleneck thing you wore under a shirt? I really haven't seen that in years! I'll let the girls give you their opinion?
