My Take On Sunglasses
07.18.08 (9:33 am) [edit]I am definitely a guy who likes to wear sunglasses. I wear sunglasses for a number of reasons. First and foremost, I wear them for safety from the sun. There has been a lot of studies done showing the harmfulness of UV rays to your eyes. I actually fear going blind more than probably anything in the world, so needless to say I wear my Wiley X sunglasses continually.
Secondly, I always keep a pair of sunglasses in my car. My brother got into an accident because of sun blindness, and it can happen easily to anyone. I am making a conscious effort to not let that happen to me, hence my second pair of Wiley X sunglasses clipped to my visor.
Third, I kind of like people not seeing my eyes. Not for any lude reasons, it is just a lot easier to talk to someone and them not knowing you are shifting your eyes around. I'm kind of a nervous guy, so it helps me greatly.
