Dude, just learn to tie a tie. It takes 2 minutes.

I don't mean to sound insulting, either, but thinking of tieing a tie as a step into adulthood is ridiculous. Buying a house? Yes. Getting married? Yes. Having kids? Yes. Being 37? That helps, too.
That's like the people who say romantic crap like 'every man needs a nice, expensive pair of shoes' or 'every man needs a good suit'. Actually, no, you don't need anything like that to be a man.
When I need to get dressed up I just don't want to be screwing around with tieing a tie. If I can find a good clip-on it's a solid plan.
