So cold. Also I hate wearing layers. Hate how the inside long sleeve somehow manages to creep up your arms and you have to try to pull down from the top of two other long sleeves. And it takes forever, and if you don’t it’s just going to irritate you to no end. Curse you cold weather. Curse you. Incase you can’t tell. I don’t like the cold 🥺

Yeah, oddly enough my arms get cold with multiple layers, I think due to the long sleeved shirt.

I’m under blankets right now. Trying to wrap them around me but it’s a pain at times keeping them wrapped, especially when you need to keep the arms free or get them out or move.

I hear ya with everything minus the shirt part. I have errands to run hence layers. Don’t care if I’m at home

I like the cold, I’m in and out of the fridge and freezer all day at work and I wear jeans and a T-shirt all year around.

Aye I wouldn’t last thirty mins in your work

Oh yes and what about when the ends of your sleeves get wet or when water somehow runs down your arm ooof

Omgsh don’t get me started. This happened to me twice Monday and Tuesday. Somehow I pushed the sleeve of my top up my arm to wash my hands, and it slid down and got wet (Monday) What the heck? Was more cautious Tuesday and somehow it got wet again 😒 rude!

Hate wearing layers? You're in the wrong state my friend! Tried a wife beater as an undershirt, then a short sleeved, then a jacket/shirt/jumper? It's how I generally avoid the sensory overload while keeping my core toasty

I know, I know. Also it’s singlet, 2 long sleeve and a medium warm jacket and my winter jacket sigh

This is why men's shirts have cuffs, right? So you can wear it underneath a dress jacket without it pulling up.

I’m small why would I be wearing men’s shirt. Men’s shirt would be too big on me and wouldn’t fit with the sizing of the rest of what I wear. I’m confused by your suggestion
