      I had a professor who never moved on from his hipster phase. Every once in a while he’d switch it up and wear tech bro sports jackets and graphic tees, like he was trying to branch out but he was more comfy with what he cultivated on his twenties and thirties lol

          More like that’s not what hipsters look like anymore. There’s always hipsters, although given how strongly that word is associated with the 2010s they’ll probably get called something else.

    TBF I have nothing against the hipster look - except for the various beards and 'staches. I tried it: a sculpted beard is a fuckton of work, like a second hairdo basically. It also requires appropriate growth; not all men have it.

    I feel like this is the newer variant Performative males for this era?

    I think the “hipster” look is alive an well with all the guys who opened overpriced barbecue or taco joints that serve whiskey and tequila. Trends fade because the people who keep to them grow old and the younger generation does something different to not be “like their parents” or gen whatever the fuck category people are bulked into.

    Eventually performative males will eventually open matcha and boba tea shops. To than be replaced by something else people can make fun of for 10 years.
