The explosion of men’s style blogs has produced an interesting side effect: a new segment of the male population who can’t seem to talk about anything but menswear.  Looking at and purchasing the stuff we wear used to be seen as so feminine that men would gleefully allow their wives to buy all their clothes for them.  Now there are guys starting up Bologna construction appreciation clubs.  All of this stuff is fun, but it can quickly go from appreciation to obsession.  Here’s how to know when you might be over-doing it, and thus, potentially boring those around you to death.
