It’s 100% a guy thing, we don’t really get bored of clothes like my dad has shirts that are older than me that are now just sleep shirts since they are so faded. The only thing that we don’t repurpose is socks and underwear

Most of the autistic girls I know also do this, so I think it might be both?

I have and actively wear clothes I got when I was 13 because they still fit and they’re not broken. I’m the same way with items to, I wear shoes until they fall apart and my neurotypical friend was horrified that my suitcase currently has duct tape covering a hole even though I never considered that a big deal.

i do this but instead of rags for cleaning, sometimes i’ll just use the scrap fabrics for repairs on other clothing items!!

Yeah I have clothes that just turned into ‘sleep shirts’ after they went through too many washes
