advantage of being well dressed

[Schpacko]

Hi

Just a thought:

What is the biggest advantage of being "well dressed"? Is there an OBJECTIVE advantage at all, besides maybe an
increased self-esteem? I mean, do you think you get treated different than someone that is dressed worse?
Or do you even think that there are any disadvantages?

Honestly, you pretty much answered the question yourself. When I dress according to what I think suits me and looks good, I feel 10x better about myself and my appearance. Lacking self-esteem in highschool was a big problem for me. After graduating, I decided it was time to stop feeling sorry for myself, and started changing the way I dress to reflect who I am and what fits well. Long story short, the problem took care of itself. Objective advantage? Who knows

I do it for the *****. Although the only people who ever notice my shoes are gay men.

Dressing always depends on where you are going but I dress my self in which I am comfortable.

 

[mulansauce]

It's good to know you dress yourself, and that you are comfortable in that self.

Honest question: Do you speak English or did you have Google translate that for you?

Ultimately a good experience and a short life, dressing up to the urge to feel remorse after a purchase of online message boards. Please wash rinse repeat.

You seem less approachable and relatable to most.

It also gets conflated when you think you look good, but you actually don't. When you're sitting in the coffee shop with your 194 layers of torn up black rags and your ninja hood and girls are staring and giggling, it might not be because you look so ******* awesome in your Japanese mid-market jawnz that they think you're a stud.

Not true. All women--and science has cofirmed this--begin ovulating when they see skinny kids in black ninja hoods and rags.

mulansauce is right, I've read several academic papers on this matter.

What? Don't you mean BLAND OF OUTSIDERS?

Did you see what I did there? I put an "L" in the word Band, because it sounds the same but it changes the meaning. I call it Bland of Outsiders because it's boring. Who the **** pays that kind of money for something that doesn't at least show off your nipples? BTW I edited your post to better serve mine.
