Ode to sweats

Don't expect a poem or anything, but I would like to take a minute to show my appreciation for sweats and how great they really are.

You know that feeling when you get up in the morning and you just don't want to have to do anything at all but you know that society frowns on the absence of clothing? I sure do. The only thing that gets me through times like those is a nice pare of sweat pants. These are the best kind of pants because in when it's cold they comfort you, they don't restrict, or try to hold you back in any way. Sweats just let you be you.

They're not a respecter of persons whether male or female, big or small, athletic or lounger, they embrace every person willing to held by a soft, slightly cusioned peice of fabric. If you think about it the ancient Greeks probably would have worn sweats instead of nothing if the climate would have allowed it.

There may be some nay sayers saying nay to the universalness of sweats. Saying that if you want to "look sooo good" that you can't being wearing sweats. I would combat that by saying that a girl who is confident enough to be seen in sweats and still flirt with guys as though she were all spiffed out gives her bonus points. I would dare say that there may be room to expand the market for sweats and introduce a line of formal were. Meaning that you could by a pair of sweat pants that you could put a crease in. A pull over top with a collar that has buttons down the front that are for looks only and a tie that is just screen printed on. Of course in the places the tie cover there would be no buttons. To top it all off a pair of slippers that could pass for dress shoes, but be so comfortable that you wouldn't ever want to take them off.

If this new line of clothing was developed you might see more people walking or jogging to and from work. When people got home from work they wouldn't need to change immediately they could just start unwinding. Thus a little more relaxation quicker. More relaxation faster than before and people jogging or walking to work just makes for an all around better american society.

So let us not feel pressured to dress up all the time. Let us look at what could be instead of what is. Wear sweats more often than before and increase your overall quality of life. Share the phenomenon that is sweats.
