Bro, I dress in ways I think are fun and cool to me. I thought that was normal.

I've never thought about if others find it attractive.

    I don't think this is even true for straight people, straight women basically dress for other women and straight men are instantly turned gay whenever they make a clothing related decision

      Yeah see but I find men attractive but I also want to look as androgynous as possible. So then only women hit on me :deeper-sadness:

            People doing an androgyny generally make me a southern Belle with the vapors and assume someone as brutish looking as a cis dude looking person cause goddammit shaving takes time and stubble sucks for body hair seems outside of my grasp. They're already hooking up with other hot people.

    I wear clothes that are unassuming and muted because I don't like being perceived, and I want to wear fun bright clothes. Dialectics

    I already think that I'm cool and fun.

    I dress in whatever way fits what I'm setting out to do. :tequila-sunset:

      Why is your tie telling me that I seem cool and that I shouldn't show up to the Federal Building in Oklahoma City tomorrow?

        Correction, I never take off my necktie, even if undermines the rest of my fashion's goals.

    they are also just comfier :meow-coffee:

      somebody told me I dress like the "modern equivalent of a medieval peasant" which I think was supposed to be an insult but tbh it's a total vibe for me :you-are-a-serf:

    no, i don't really have a conception of the self like that. i dress the minimum for the weather and enough to avoid being accosted.

    we don't look at ourselves constantly when we dress high-effort so it's hard to get my head around the notion that the external signs and presentation aren't for others. I know some people wear makeup when they're home alone and not appearing on camera, so it's literally not for anyone else, but that just makes me wonder what society did to them that they feel the need.
