I kinda wish everyone was fucking terrified of me all the time.

But I just look goofy.

Although once I did manage to scare the shit out of a teenage girl by chasing her and threatening to strangle her.

That felt pretty good.

It this weirdo Gothic? Why all the black? Did someone die in you family? Are you emo? You are too skinny, why do you wear black?

this is some of the stuff I heard over the years, not that I want people to think hat about me but it happens.

After I get married I will buy myself a traditional slavic hear scarf + white lace dress and count my days until I become a babushka so I kinda have to deal with this opinions for now

You'll never achieve the wholesome American father look if you're not at least somewhat muscular. I don't mean ripped, but you won't look like a strong father figure if you're a skinny skellington.

In reality I dress like a shut in teenager. But I actually work night shift so I never see the day and have very fair skin. Also I mostly wear darker colours, black being the most used.

It's called 'soft grunge' or whatever you wanna call it. Search it up.
And if you're short but got nice skinny legs w a gap, then you can sure as hell pull off those cute bulky sweaters. I wouldn't recommend if you're pretty heavy on the legs tho.

Honestly it's more about how I view myself, I have self esteem issues so I use fashion bullshit and working out to make me feel better about the way I look, so I probably come off as gay/an edgy cunt to most people but I'm slowly becoming more satisfied with the way I look so it's all good
>>
>>12228196
its not about being better than it is holding your own. think of being in a band, if you're better than everyone in it, then find a new band. otherwise you just need to hold your own. do what you do well. there is power in collaboration, domination only serves the interests occasionally

I use clothes simply as a means to feel confident. I've had debilitatingly bad self-esteem for years and barely had any friends during that time. That is, until I started putting more focus on my appearance (which happened in correlation with starting my university studies, where a proper dress code suddenly became something important).

Turns out that an embedded feeling of perpetual self-consciousness was the root of it all and that I don't even have assburgers or whatever like I suspected for quite some time. I just felt uncomfortable as fuck in any social situation because I always thought people perceived me negatively, instantly upon seeing me.

So yeah, with the help of clothing, I simply want others to perceive me as someone confident.

Ok this sounded more doom and gloom than I had thought, so I would also like to note that it is going pretty damn great so far since I genuinely feel more confident now that I put actual thought into my appearance, so yeah, the chances of others perceiving me as confident is vastly improved as a result.
