Fake glasses?

I live in Tokyo and this trend has been on the rise for the past few months. It is primarily a fashion thing, which is understandable because glasses can be a great accessory for some outfits.
The problem I have with it recently is that girls wear fake glasses WITHOUT lenses! If you have lenses that are just non-prescription, then that's fine because nobody knows the difference, but having glasses with NO lenses just looks dumb as hell.
In any event, this has become a HUGE trend in Tokyo recently and I can't for the life of me figure out why. Especially when in most cases the girl looks WORSE with glasses than without and it's obvious to everyone that they are fake!

On another note about the colored contacts. I don't agree with the flash video about it being an attention seeking "whorish" thing to do. Colored contacts are nothing more than a form of make up and should be treated as such. (although we do make up to get some form of attention, so this is pretty much a loaded statement)
As I said earlier, I live in Tokyo where pretty much everyone is born with the same eye and hair color, so many girls wear colored contacts and similarly dye their hair to look different. I don't understand how that translates to being an attention seeking whore. They simply are looking for ways to look attractive and shouldn't be degraded for that.

Why does that bother you so much? If anything you should be flattered that people would wear eyeglasses as an accessory, because that sure as hell didn't happen 30 years ago. Now eye-wear is seen as something "cool" and "hip" instead of being something worth making fun of.RAKtheUndead said:
To direct anger at anyone for how they dress or what they wear, in general, is bad, so why would you feel the need to do it to someone wearing fake lenses?
I have seen multiple hipsters and dumb girls wear fake glasses at our school. Since I actually need glasses for my eyesight. I see at insulting that people wear cheap fake glasses "just cause its cool" this isnt cool some people actually need them.
It just makes me want to punch those people in the face.

If I ever do see someone like that, I'd simply laugh at them and yell out 'nerd!' Maybe "Hey jackass, what's the square root of 16?'
I'm not going to bother telling them my real thoughts because someone who's so desperate about looking smart that they wear fake glasses won't understand.
