Bukowski, a small wool hat, and ketamine: lines for the character of the "soft boy" - voila! Sheee

This list will be familiar to anyone who meets guys who wear tiny rolled wool hats even in the height of summer - from the softboi's signature signs of worn-out Doc Martins to his unwavering obsession with Charles Bukowski.

But while the softboi may be obvious to a certain generation, there are (older) generations who are curious about the concept.

So we will explain.

Softboys are hard to define, but they are easy to spot.

That's because they're characterized by a vague but specific set, ranging from "I just watched American Psycho for the first time and I'm applying his manipulations to my Tinder conversations" to many subgenres, each with vastly different traits and behaviors.

The 30-year-old who talks to you about Radiohead's musical development on Instagram Direct is a softboy, and yes, the one you babysat for at the age of eight, who now rolls his own cigarettes, skateboards and makes up for his first psychology class.

and there is more.

A lot even.

Get the many shades of the softboi in useful and concise categories, which will explain everything you need to know:

Eyring

the softboi moves unaccountably between Eyring (deliberate disregard, we mean - you air) and hysterical and righteous anger, when you decide to do the same.

With his self-esteem levels dependent on the number of girls/boys he can drive crazy at any given moment, the conversation with the softboy can become unpredictable at any stage.

A fun activity for the sophomore is to spend a night fingering by candlelight on his floor mattress.

While you swallow the disappointment and wonder how the hell he got this far in life without ever satisfying a partner sexually.

Notice - next to the bed is a well-edited copy of Charles Bukowski's Wives.

Now, let the hollow despair wash over you.

Smoking, rolling, and cigarettes are a natural extension of the Softboy's arm.

It is likely that he will describe the act of smoking as "a fucking spiritual experience", or maybe he will take it further and explain to the innocent passerby that he decided to lock up in some corner, how cigarettes are actually a metaphor for life.

"We all just... burn out in the end" he pauses, shrugs, and takes a moment to revel in the genius of his own mind.

"Anyway, it's cold. I was planning to spend tonight drinking red wine and watching Wes Anderson. Want to help warm me up?"

Fortunately, not everyone who posts to TikTok has learned the dubious art of subtle emotional manipulation through the false projection of vulnerability.

It's totally acceptable to be open and vulnerable however you feel, softboi or not.

But feelings that are conveyed as some strange growth of loaded theories, with the aim of orchestrating the other party to miraculously fall in love through what they mistakenly see as intriguing "honesty".

There is a claim that hallucinogenic drugs are at the root of every softboi's existence.

Perhaps thousands of years ago, when the first magic mushrooms were eaten, a message was sent mid-trip to the first ever Softboy, who consequently decided that the safest way to fuck was to impress her not by slaughtering a mammoth with his bare hands, but by spending half an hour on how his alternative deep cave paintings Might as well be progressives so that others will actually "get" them, yo noo?

The visual nature of this app makes things much easier for softbois tracking their prey.

Be careful of your inbox, lest you get something like "Hey, I know we haven't met but I just came across your profile and couldn't help but notice you posted a still from Gummo a few years ago? Let me know if you have a spare moment to discuss Harmony Korine's lasting influence on The modern cinema about coffee or red wine ;)".

Ketamine

The exaggeration surrounding the softboys' obsession with ketamine is still not quite clear.

It can only be assumed that the K taps into Softboy's self-destructive side, which is actually quite disturbing and probably requires a psychological perspective.

But sanity or not - one of Softboy's signature statements is "My mind is so brilliant that I've gained a deeper understanding of drugs than anyone else in history."

in general, 'literature', even as a vague term is one of the tender loves of the tender child.

To instantly arouse any given softboi, simply upload a picture with a drop of boobs, along with a literary quote, and see a warning.

"Please come to my apartment in Pardes Hana and let me take a picture of you naked with my 35mm camera for my incredibly vaguely named 'art project,'" Softboy says, copying and pasting each match on Tinder. Although it's a little less Romantic than the idea of ​​reclining on a plush couch by candlelight for Picasso, there's no denying that this is probably the line Pablo would have used if he lived in the age of internet dating. Jewelry If he's

a signet ring, there's a 50 percent chance he's a softboy. The other 50 percent who wear rings A signet is either your grandpa, your grandpa's grandpa, and your grandpa's friends. If you're ever in doubt whether a signet ring wearer is a softboi, look out for cracked black nail polish or a short monologue about how he "would 100% do Mia Wallace, you know, if she was real and not a character in a movie."

Tinder makes it incredibly easy to identify any softboi, for better or for worse.

They will describe themselves through their bio, which will often clearly describe and emphasize how he is not like other men, but actually (wait for it)… better than other men.

Hard to resist, isn't it?

you decide to dump your current Softboy, and now he's an ex.

"Finally," you think to yourself, "Finally this whole softboy business is over. I'll never go near a man who quotes Socrates during sex again."

Still, I'm sorry to say, once you've jumped down the softboy rabbit hole, it's hard to go back.

You'll find yourself unable to break the cycle, continuing to gravitate to the next always-looking-tired-guy-wearing-an-oversized-vintage-sweatshirt.
