I long for the days, when men and women wore similar clothing, and had similar hairdos.

I don't mind wearing tight clothes, as long as the clothing is stretchy. I wear track pants ALL the time, even during the summer. (I live in NZ, so summers don't usually get ridiculously hot anyway) I also wear shirts without buttons, and skivvies a lot of the time. in the winter, I wear thermals most of the time, because I don't really like the cold.

as for fashion, what IS fashion?

I don't like shirts... I go most all the time without one, if I can get away with it. I wear normal-fitting jeans; not too tight nor too baggy. Baggy gets caught on stuff, and tight is uncomfortable. When I ride dirt bikes, I wear very snug compression underwear, which is for safety. You don't want anything flopping around where you might sit on it! And when I ride my street bike, I have a 1-piece leather suit, which is very snug-fitting for safety. If you go down and your leathers are skin-tight (a requirement for any motorcycle race events), you might be able to slide flat to a stop on the pavement (unless you slide into something of course). If loose, they'll bunch up and move around on you, which will cause you to roll and bounce; breaking bones. I like loose boots & shoes, so I wear a size larger than measured. I wear shoes all the time, and that doesn't bother me.

I rather prefer my clothing to fit perfectly, even if it's a bit tight. My parents are concerned that I may look like a metrosexual and rather prefer me wear more baggy clothes. I hate baggy jeans, it makes my legs look fat.

It is a mix for me. When I'm bicycling I like tight bike shorts rather than the loose mountain bike shorts. With loose shorts I can't stand the feel of the edge of the shorts dragging back and forth against my skin as I pedal. Likewise with loose fitting bike shirts - I prefer a tight fitting arm so that there is no friction as my arm moves. When I get home, I'd rather just strip out of everything so that there is no skin contact.

No tags on my t-shirts naturally. I could never stand that.

I was just thinking about this because I saw a post on tumblr about skinny jeans. I like the look of them and I own one pair, but usually it's impossible for me to find comfortable ones. The ones I own are very soft and stretchy so they're ok (I still find them less comfortable than looser pants and skirts). But I don't like tight clothes in general, as they feel too restrictive. I'm especially picky about pants waistlines - they can't be at all tight, they can't be too low (because it will bother me all day as I feel like they're falling down) but they have to be snug enough because I don't like wearing belts.
As for shirts, they can't be too tight and i hate small sleeves or high/small collar.

My outfit every day consists of:
T-Shirt worn in rainbow order from closet.
Pants, always loose but fitting khaki pants or chinos
Boxers. :P
I don't like sweat pants much because of the noise it makes and not a fan of shorts.

I am fine with tight pants (like leggings, I live in them) but I hate tight tops so much. I dont like its a sensory thing though, more of a fashion thing, I like baggier tops.

I wear "track" pants because jeans tend to be too tight, I only wear them at school if I have to.

Tight shirts? I can't imagine such a thing. Most of my shirts are loose and have stripes but I only like black, white, grey, (sometimes) blue on my striped shirts.

Yes it is a fashion thing. Tight tops display women's breasts more which makes them look more attractive, apparently.
