The Advocacy of Shirtless Living

 I had never heard of this guy until recently, and I could have written this (minus the whole being a performer part): I greatly admire this guy. I sent him a message congratulating him on his journey. There are other shirtless singers who I admire for their confidence: Ross Lynch - He is pretty allergic to shirts, and I'm here for it. Dan Reynolds from Imagine Dragons: Charlie Puth: There are more, but you get the point. Also, these guys are my shirtless heroes. Here is captaintaylormorgan from TikTok: And Dalton Chandler, who almost literally NEVER wears a shirt (and don't get me started on the rest of his outfit): Each of these guys exude confidence and masculine IDGAF energy. They proudly show off their chests because they are comfortable in their skin and don't care what others think. They know that being shirtless is their privilege as men, and I want to be more like them. Shirts off, guys. Just do it.

I had a very good shirtless day a couple of days ago: Beachside department store: And in a bar: And today, I was going to a convenience store, and there were two shirtless guys going in in front of me, so there were three shirtless guys in there (all the male customers), which was good to see. When I see other guys go shirtless into a business, my hesitation falls away. This summer has done wonders for my shirtless confidence. Earlier in the spring, I was grappling with the usual seasonal hesitation. Now, I am confidently going into many businesses (near the beach, but still), even around women (which is unfailingly a major part of any hesitation), and I'm ok. I also drive shirtless constantly, seen outside my condo shirtless frequently, pump gas, and appear in public outdoor areas shirtless.  If I can do it, anyone can. Go shirtless, guys! Be the change you want to see.
