What's the consensus on a guy wrapping long shirt or jacket around waist?

No one should have called you a homo, because that's a shit thing to say.

The coat is going to look silly though. Sorry dude.
 
It's not a very popular aesthetic decision anymore because of the increased availability of breathable fabrics. If the weather is too hot for a jacket, don't wear one. If you can't decide between a short sleeved shirt or a long sleeved shirt, wear linen, seersucker, or breathable cotton instead of heavy cotton or flannel. You can also try wearing lighter colours in general if you want to absorb less heat.

(And bro, stop hanging out with whatever dumbass frat boys thought calling you a "homo" was appropriate, or that being a "homo" was a bad thing. Seriously, it's not 2003 and you're not in middle school.)

So you're telling me the fucking millennials also killed tying a coat around your waist. When will this sesnseless death end?

Water is not wet!
Waist, OK. Around your shoulders, not OK.

Just a recap, Gen Xers:
- Thought Joy Division was actually good
- Thought David Foster Wallace was actually readable
- Thought the mid 90s were actually a period of existential angst
- Thought "the Rachel" was actually a groundbreaking haircut
- Are extremely mad that Kids These Days wear no-show socks

What a brain trust that generation is.

I don't what the old folks in here are talking about in here, OP but I see dudes on campus rocking flannel long-sleeves around the waist all the time.

Then again, overalls and blocky triple XL vintage tees are back in again so I guess us millennials just really love 90s fashion.

Anyone who wraps it around their waist like that is trying to hide that they shit their pants. Everyone knows that.

Oh HELL nah! I didn't spend all this time getting in shape so people would stop dissing me in my big ass shirts just for them to come back into style. Fuck that noise.

Of course it's trendy, but only if you rock these with it

Bonus points for a popped collar

Jesus Christ I had the memory of these types of jeans suppressed.
OP only tie around the waste if you've pooped yourself.

Is it trendy? Is it weird for a guy to do That?

Reason I'm asking is cause I had my jacket and it was hot and didn't wanna hold it so I tied it around my waist. And I got called a homo because of it....so I'm like a lil mindfuck by thst remark so yeah..

Sounds like you would have been hot if you put it around your shoulders, so for the purpose of being comfortable you made the right decision.

Was the person who called you a homo offering to carry the jacket? No. If they aren't wearing it, why should they care how it's worn?

Life gets tiring if you live it for other people.

I don't think I've met anyone who is under like 50 who does this and isn't an all around weird person.

But I don't think anything is wrong with it. You might get hot and not want to carry it around
