soft boy

a soft boy or « soft boi » is a guy who usually dresses with baggy clothes such as oversized flannel shirts, baggy pants or mom pants, oversized sweatshirts and jackets. they like light colors like beige, light blue, light brown, white, light green but can sometimes also wear colorful colors. the shoes they usually wear are converses (vintage or classic), nikes (air jordan mid or air force one) and vans (old school). their music taste is very different. they usually like calm songs but they can also listen to styles like hard rock, indie rock, classic rock.. they usually listen to less mainstreamed artists like conan gray, rex orange county, the neighborhood, frank ocean but also vintage bands like the 1975, the strokes… in terms of personality they can seem distant and shy at first but they’re actually really cool people when you really get to know them. it’s never boring when you’re having a conversation with them. they will usually hang out with a big friend’s group that is diverse in terms of gender. they usually like skating. unlike the fuck boys who like dark colors and are usually toxic, soft boys will date you for your personality rather than your body and are really caring. unlike fuck boys, they’re loyal and respect women lol. i also see a lot of people describing soft boys as very feminine or weak but i don’t think that is true. most of the « soft boys » i met are actually really masculine so don’t think that’s what all soft boys are.
