The popular belief that scarves are for women's use only is grounded on the notion that men have neck ties and that the literal equivalent of it in women is the scarf. This preposition is further strengthened by observations that majority of the males who sport or use scarves are fashion designers who happen to be gays. Generally, the relationship between scarves and one's sexual preferences is rather inappropriately placed.
However, because of media exposure and renewed efforts from the fashion industry to make scarves as equally important a male fashion accessory as it is in females, modern day urbanites are slowly recognizing the many uses of scarves. As such, one can readily see cosmopolitan men and women wearing scarves for no apparent reason at all rather than a fashion accessory.
Men and women in most large metropolitan areas wear scarves over their daily attire to be hip and be cool among their peers. The change in the level of acceptance of scarves was directly correlated with the changes in the design of scarves such that there are plenty of choices to choose from. These choices can greatly expand one's depth of wardrobe even for everyday use.
