Why have men stopped wearing ties?

Now that less women wear pantyhose or stockings on a daily basis more men have asked why. Most women would rather have a tooth pulled than wear pantyhose for obvious reasons. So I ask why men have ditched the ties? I think ties finish the "look" for a man, can be powerful and sexy. So ladies tell me if you agree on men going back to ties and if the guys can tell me why they don't wear ties that much anymore.

Thanks!

Update:

Great answers!!! Right on Lovealways!!

    I could care less about the tie

    They can be uncomfortable for the man, and a pain in the *** to put them on.

    Plus a nice tie can be crazy expensive

    I say if we can get rid of the pantyhose, then they can get rid of the tie.

    i think b/c they're becoming more casual. Or it was a bigger trend back then. if you walk around business areas in New York and Japan, you'll probably see more tie-wearing men and stocking-wearing ladies.

    I think that men look extra attractive [and not to mention SEXY lol] when they wear a tie with buttoned shirt.

    But I guess,its the new style for guys to wear your XXL ripped-up jeans below your butt and show everyone your powerpuff boxers.

    via fact ties are uncomfortable and that i think of even a well-being risk. they're fairly the main ineffective piece of rubbish ever created. try donning a type of torture instruments for some days and you'd recognize what i'm speaking approximately. And approximately them finding useful and sexy, i think of they look user-friendly ridiculous. yet to adult males pantyhose look useful and sexy and the crowning glory to any outfit. And to placed on them feels useful and sexy too. that is particularly impossible to confirm why women human beings do not desire to placed on pantyhose.

    Ties do look classy and can be sexy. But not the ugly flower prints XD

    I think a man in a suit jacket and no tie is the best look. I rarely see a man who looks good in a tie, to be honest.

    i dont think men have stopped wearing ties that much... if theyre not its just more casual. power isnt always the best look

  • like you said....the same reason women stopped wearing pantyhose.

    In this day and age, it seems to formal, more like work attire or a very special, formal occasion.
