Filipino Author Suggests Men In The UK To Wear The “Loosest” Nightie To Beat The Heatwave. Twitterati And We Agree!
Pyjama shorts and tops are fun and all but nothing beats the good ole’ desi ‘nightie’ or maxie if you’d like. And this is especially true during the summer months when you’re all but trying really hard to beat the heat. Nighties are easy, airy, and so much more comfortable. And while most of you youngsters will look down upon it, your elders will only swear by it saying that it is the best piece of garment to wear during the summers. Other than your elders, there is one more person who swears by it. Who you may ask? Well, it is this Filipino author who asked all men in the United Kingdom to wear nighties or what the Philippines call the duster dress to beat the heatwave. If you ask me, I support this.
On July 18, a Filipino author named Jill Damatac took to Twitter to suggest to all the men living in the United Kingdom to wear the “loosest” duster dresses or nighties to beat the ongoing heatwave.

In his tweet, the Filipino author wrote, “✨HOW TO STAY COOL IN UK HEATWAVE (A THREAD FROM ME, A FILIPINO TROPICAL BABY):✨ 1. Wear the loosest (it’s a word today) cotton or linen you can find, preferably a big loose dress (men, this is a good time to try out a dress). In the Philippines, we call this a Duster Dress”
Along with his tweet, the Filipino man also shared a picture of two men wearing loose nighties and posing for the camera. As soon as he shared the tweet, Twitterati flooded the comment section to point out that men should let go of their “forced masculinity” and to just wear nighties or anything else to survive the heat.

You know this reminds me of the time when one of the characters in Harry Potter 4 showed up to the Quidditch World Cup wearing a nightie because he wanted healthy air around his privates.
