Cycling newbies + clothing

Have you ever had to ask your better half, gf, wife, mother to wipe your arse because you have taken all the skin off your hands from crashing? No? Well neither have I but I wear gloves so I never have to.

All people in London wear too many clothes and all women complain about the cold when it's not cold.

Everyone should HTFU.

is this an argument for or against wearing gloves?
