<p>I'm a guy, and i lived in the dorms for the past 2 years. I generally liked to keep my room cold, and the hallways and common areas weren't much warmer. So because of that, i liked to wear my bathrobe and slippers around the dorm buildings. In my time there, i saw only one other guy use a robe, lots of girls wearing them for showers, and only 1 girl wearing a robe outside of her hallway. </p>
<p>To me, a bathrobe was a perfect thing to wear, comfy and warm, and i didn't have a problem wearing mine where ever and being seen wearing it. </p>
<p>What's the problem with being seen in a robe? If you had one in college, did you ever wear it around the building like to the dining hall or common areas? Would you laugh if you saw a guy like me walking around at night or in the morning with a fuzzy robe and ridiculous slippers?</p>
<p>I just think robes and slippers are not popular with people our age, that’s all. So yeah, it’s only weird because not a lot of people own/wear them.</p>
<p>If you want to wear a robe, wear a robe.
If you want to wear wooden yellow clogs to class, do it.</p>
<p>Don’t allow other people’s thoughts about you influence what you want to do. If someone thinks you’re ridiculous because you’re rocking the Snuggie or a Wearable Towel, or better yet, use Comfort Wipe [YouTube</a> - Comfort Wipe Commercial](<a href=“http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crfGXmxJ1vM]YouTube”>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crfGXmxJ1vM)
then they’re probably not people you want to hang out with anyway and might be less than mature.</p>
<p>I spent awhile in a dorm and can’t say I’ve ever seen anyone go “Ew, dude’s in a fluffy robe. Let’s ostracize him!”</p>
<p>The one thing I’ve learned is that people aren’t thinking about you as much as you think they are. Do what you want.</p>
<p>It would probably be a tad unusual (simply for that reason… it isn’t “usual”), but I don’t think anyone would berate you for it.</p>
<p>Hell, people might even be jealous of the fact that you’re constantly comfy. You may even start a trend? lol</p>
<p>Oh it definitely wouldn’t ever stop me from wearing one. It just seems to me like a robe is something that alot of people don’t wanna be seen in. But people in dorms always complain that it’s too cold, a robe and slippers are perfect solutions for that!</p>
<p>robes are pretentious.</p>
<p>I can kinda see that, but i don’t think being pretentious would be a reason that someone wouldn’t wear a robe. I think alot of people are just embarrassed to be seen wearing a bathrobe around, especially guys. Personally, i felt that a little at first, because i got some stares and people (especially girls) would compliment me and say something like “nice robe” or whatever. After like a week i wasn’t embarrassed to be seen in it at all anymore</p>
