The rule of thirds exists for a reason. It demarcates and highlights your body's natural proportions. Throughout history, even when people wore longer tops and outfits, they always made sure to tie their belt and sash at the natural waistline, because that's what healthy, normal humans are supposed to look like.
All those guys in the OP pic look weird with fridge like rectangular torsos, when a man's torso should ideally have a V-taper.
