8 You Wear T-Shirts Every Day Take a minute and be completely honest with yourself. Could you stand to lose at least five pounds? Most guys could -- don't beat yourself up about it. Here's the second part of the question. Are T-shirts your default type of shirt? Like, do you only bother with a button-down if you're compelled to look "nice" for something? If you answered yes to both of those questions, you need to trust me when I tell you that the simple act of buttoning up a button-down in the morning rather than throwing on a T-shirt will make you look significantly more handsome in the eyes of many women -- especially if you can stand to lose a few pounds. Button-downs forgive a man about 15 pounds. It's like a free pass to be a little bit chubby -- which is, frankly, a very valuable free pass, and one that you should not be too lazy to ignore. T-shirts on chubby males are only cute if the males in question are toddlers
