People who wear band shirts, does this actually happen?
Nope. Every once in a long while someone will say "Nice shirt!".
I wasn't asking a particular gender. I was asking people in general. I don't wear band shirts so I was curious what those who did had experienced. I've never witnessed it even when I was younger and band shirts were practically the dress code. The original screenshot isn't even gendered so I'm not sure where this hostility is coming from.
The only gendered part about it was "especially as a young woman" which implies that either men or women could be asked that question. Unless something has changed recently and only women can wear band shirts now. But whatever, I'm sorry my post offended you. I didn't intend for it to be dismissive towards women.
… no. Although 2ce when I wore death metal band t shirt while walking my dog a car started blasting one of their songs. At least I thought it was one of their songs…. I went to the show that time and saw them live and they were great so I wanted to support them by buying merch. I have a ton of shirts like that.
To me, a dude, who's been wearing band shirts for the past 18 years? Never.
My girlfriend who buys band shirts at shows I take her to because she had just heard them for the first time and thought they sounded cool? Also never.
My friend was wearing a Ramones shirt and I asked her to name a single member of the band.
