ORIGINAL: Asherscorp1 Inspired by another recent thread dedicated to "appearance" I would like to ask something that has been on my mind a lot lately. When you go to a munch/party (or just out in the vanilla world for that matter) does the effort you put into your appearance matter? For myself, if I walk into a party and the people are ratty, dirty, unkempt it is immediately off-putting. They don't have to be pretty, thin, or have the "style" I do but pajamas and torn jeans comes across to me as disrespectful to everyone else. As though it wasn't worth it for them to even attempt presentability for the event. Is this simply shallow, or is it a matter of showing you care enough about yourself and respect the venue enough to at least try? Shallow? No, it just weeds out the people who aren't hung up on appearance and who wouldn't be happy with you. Consequently, you both initially are drawn to people better suited for each other.
