Not all men in suits look like that.

True enough. Those look like models.
My departed man wasn't a model but looked really good in a suit--he had a lot of them too.

My husband has always been a suit guy and always looks handsome. Of course, it's my job to iron his shirts. He is very picky and I have to be very careful I don't make a mistake when I'm ironing them. My Mother-in-law warned me before we got married that he started ironing his own shirts at 10yrs old because he said she didn't do a good job. She bought me an iron and said "Good Luck"

I guess but can he repair a leaky roof or install a lighting fixture?I guess not but he is nice to look at
Is that biased thinking? Why couldn't he?
Here's an example of biased thinking: Of course he can! He's a man, isn't he?Is that biased thinking? Why couldn't he?

I enjoy wearing a suit for special occasions including going out to a special dinner. Here' I am at my son's wedding a few years ago. This was a rental tux.

I don't remember ever buying a suit without being under my wife's watchful eye. Of course I rarely wear them anymore, but they are very nice ones and of a style that can stays reasonably current. She is a bit fussy about how I look.
Maybe he can....maybe not...who cares anyhow....

My husband has only worn a suit 3 times in his life... once when we were being married... once ( top hat & tails) at his sisters' wedding... and once when he was at the Funeral of the Queen Mother... in 2002..
Really, that's not very often. Surprising actually. I guess not everyone wears a suit very often. I just happen to like what men in suits look like

When I retired, all my suits went to charity and all my ties were ceremoniously given a Viking funeral.

Just before lockdown he went to his best buddy's wedding in just an open shirt and Chinos... ( however I always insist he wears nice shoes)

I always had to wear a suit while working....even though the jacket came off as soon as I started fixing something....silly company policy, IMO. I still keep two suits in the closet, and have only worn them for the granddaughters weddings, and a couple of funerals.

This suit is a replica of the suit that my father was given after he was demobilised at the end of WW2
A zoot suit, note the length of the jacket, so loved by Chicago youths of the late thirties.
A favourite three piece suit, completely overshadowed by the lady and Hercules.
The year before the pandemic we went to an Hawaiian themed wedding. For the ceremony I wore this linen suit, later the collar & tie gave way for a traditional Aloha shirt.
Typical 1940's style three piece suit. I have a few more in my wardrobe, but only one modern, dark, sober looking suit. I keep it for funerals.
Who cares. It’s a picture.
