A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

They tell you to trust it though?
And it's telling me I can't pull this off.

I'm pretty sure the modern term for this look is "fuckboy"
Fuckboy, suckboy, cuckboy. You can have it all
I'm short and fat.
That was a straight fad. Now it's a gay fad. Lotta hateful crazy people. Soooo the fact that someone may try to attack me for wearing such things even if I want to.
The gays ruin all the fun.
Just like wrestling in the showers.

What's stopping me is lack of hunk.
Come on, you're not just some guy!
I live down the street from a college. Many of my neighbors are college students. I've seen roughly this look on a handful of very young men in the last year. I've seen guys in their early 20s/late teens playing sports in roughly this outfit. It is coming back/fashion is more fluid these days. There are still trends, but many young people wear all sorts of stuff that just looks good on their bodies with little regard for era or popularity.
That's currently what I'm seeing in terms of style these days. The prevalence of body positivity has allowed people to wear things that flatter themselves. There will always be the crowd that tries something new, but no one is going to be shunned for trying something that works or is comfortable.
While I could say my gut/lack of hunkiness/taste but....
I really, really don't want to attract serial killers.
Since I don't recognize these movies I'm half tempted to think these are just shots from gay porn intros.
The first picture is the first A Nightmare on Elm Street (thats Johnny Depp, fyi). I think the second picture is the second Nightmare movie (it has a baseball game in gym class scene but I'm not sure if that's it). I couldn't tell you what the last picture is from but I would guess one of the Friday the 13th movies.
Edit: I think the second and third pictures go together. Maybe they're both Nightmare 2 but I'm not sure.

A lot of old horror movies went the "soft-core porn with stabbing" route, so you aren't far off.

About 150lbs and the fact I don't want my ballsack hanging out my jorts.
them some low hangers friendo
Happens when you get old sonny
These are also the guys who gets stabbed to death with a rusty fork by a masked murderer. Im not saying wearing crop tops causes violent death but there seems to be a correlation
You might be on to something
I mean, small sample size, but I've never worn a crop top and I haven't been brutally murdered, well, yet.
Common sense
Mirrors.
I don't have shirts in kid sizes
I'm not sure my hairy mid-40's self would be well recevied.
Don't know until you try! Lol
Imran, you've just checked off two of my green flags
The fact they look ridiculous is what's stopping me.
Nothing. This is how I dress in the summer. Except I have a dad bod and not one of those chiseled Adonis bodies so nobody appreciates it as much.
Truthfully it's mainly because of sexism and how people think that certain clothes = certain sex and gender or sexual orientation.

I have gay friends that wouldn't be caught dead wearing that.
I guarantee that "style" was because a producer wanted the guys to dress like that.
Dignity.
I do dress like that for pride parade. I should definitely do it more often.
I live in a fashion-forward neighbourhood (for North America, at least (which doesn't say much)), and there were definitely straight dudes rocking this look this summer.
my pot belly
Doesn't quite work with the whole "aging sasquatch, ex power lifter/dadbod" combo I tend to have.
I tend to scare adults when I'm shirtless for some reason. I can't imagine this would be any better.
Something something third spaces to dress like this and hang out at
