You manner of dress will dictate how your are received, perceived and respected in accordance with the ceremony, circumstance and setting for which your are dressed. A top hat and tails will not do well when the the reason for your presence is good old fashioned hard work nor will overalls do at a wedding unless the invitation dictates that is appropriate. It ain't about color, religion or politics; it is about style and self respect.
(as my avatar clearly demonstrates)
We had a drug rep who dressed pretty much in top hat and tails every call and he was top salesman in his company.
I like clothes, fashion and dressing well. Fedoras for cooler weather and panama hats for warmer weather. I just enjoy it and it translated well for business.
I just read an article by a black, female who was trying to make the point that blacks are judged by how they are dressed. She wrote that she had to wear "church clothes" everyday - and encouraged her children to do the same - because if they don't, they are treated differently. Her non-black friend complained that she took too long to get ready for a casual shopping trip. She replied that if she "threw on jeans and t-shirt" like her friend then sales people would ignore her or worse - follow her around and be too friendly - never giving her a moment to just browse.
She extends this premise to her children and says that depending on how they are dressed, it might save their life one day.
I say that this isn't a race issue. I know I'm treated differently based on the way I'm dressed when I go shopping.
I also say that all teenagers are slightly suspect and no matter how they are dressed, if the attempt to intimidate someone or if they start to be violent, then they can expect people will react accordingly.
Cloths make the man
Dress for success
Jacket and tie required
anyone that thinks everyone is judged by how they dress is a liar.
Yes, of course we are all prejudged by how we're dressed, how we talk, how we write -- just as we're prejudged by the color of our skin.
Its just the way it is.
When I go in on weekends to get some work done, I dress similar to what the street bums wear. They think I am one and do not solicit.When I was in grad school, I worked for a few months in an art gallery.
The sales reps told a story about a dirty bum with a brown paper bag they had kicked out of the gallery a few months before I started. He ended up going to a gallery down the street and spending $100,000 on some art; he was carrying his cash in the paper bag.
One can use one's outfits as a disguise...quite useful at times.
I am a black male who grew up in the inner city of Atlanta and no one ever followed me in a mall. I dont recall any doors clicking when I crossed the street. And I never had anyone clutching their handbag when I got on an elevator. I guess having two awesome parents who taught me to be a respectful young man paid dividends. Allen West

If one abuses drugs or alcohol or is a criminal, one will be surrounded by those who abuse drugs or alcohol or criminals. One will become sick and poor. People will steal from you. This is how it is.
Tats and piercings will not make one a druggie or an alkie or a criminal, but they are associated with an unhealthy lifestyle and crime.

Top 10 Things From Your 20?s That You?ll Regret When You?re 40
No girl is responsible for her own rape.
However, putting self in danger from others who don't know that is stupid.
don't skew it your leftist way. the question of responsibility is irrelevant.
If a girl does not want to be raped she would act and dress appropriately.
Being raped is harmful. One wants to avoid that. Mothers ( and fathers) used to teach their daughters how to prevent being viewed as a potential aim.

I love it when a man wears a proper hat well.
I personally have to have pretty things around me. I am a visual person. My house has to be furnished nicely, pretty lights, etc. My late husband was drop dead gorgeous.
Same here, on all counts...

Don't ever think we will let your reactionary socon traditionalist or others' leftist values govern, Vox, ever. The only cultural slut here is you.
Girls should be smart, but they are not ever responsible for rape.
the thread is "how does the way you dress affect how you are being treated". if you want your daughter to be raped go ahead and recommend her to dress like a whore and act like one and guarantee her .

My wife's best friend is just short of 40...she is covered neck to ankles in tattoos, she has a dozen earrings, 14 other piercings, and no regrets yet.

You are a stupid fool, don't you know. No girl ever deserves to be raped, no matter whatever your flatulent-mouthed belchings may be.
Liz was taught how by her father: aim at center mass and keep shooting until he face-plants!

She has adjusted her life to accommodate her style. That's what separates the grocery clerks at whole foods from the clerks at nordstroms. And the pay too.

stop advertising to girls the moronic notion of yours that she can dress and act anyway she wants.
