I don't care what style you are, dress how you want, just be real. The outside, what you present to the world needs to match your personality, the things you like and don't like. All of it should basically match.
What I hate are people who don't like something until it is popular, then they are all over it. Those that put down and mock something and then a few months later deem it "cool" enough for them. Yet those some fake people then claim that the original people who liked it first copied them, have no style, etc...
And you can tell when something is popular, especially with girls. Piercings started out as a PUNK and METAL thing, when I started getting piercings girls I knew put them down, and called me a freak, a loser for having them. Then they deemed NAVAL rings cool, lol so all the little fake poser preps in my high school all had their naval pierced, that one was okay, all others were still stupid in their eyes. Then it moved on over the years as to what they deemed to be popular and acceptable to have pierced. Walk into any major event, concert or sporting event, or your local mall. And look at you typical female aged about 25-30 and under, and the closer to 18-21 the more you will see it. Girls that have TWO very common piercings, a nose piercing and a lip piercing, usually a little diamond stud. Now if you watch people the way I do, and for my job I have to be able read a person, read body language, so I have gotten very good at it. One thing I have noticed about about 50% or so of these girls, they aren't the normal type to get piercings or tattoos. I would bet that a few months ago these girls where mocking others for those very same piercings, and now suddenly they are cool enough to have, and in a few months they will take them out and move on the next "fad" piercing place, you see, last year it was the septum, and before that it was lip with a HOOP, and before that was eyebrow, before that tongue.
See these girls only keep the piercings as long as it's "cool" to have them. lol, they claim to have gotten sick or it or bored. Then why is it that you have had exactly ALL the same "fad" piercings at exactly thr right time!?
They do it with clothes, tattoos, music, with everything. Maybe it is because I have always been the "unique" one, always a bit weird, but never an outcast or geek/nerd, that seeing people "steal" styles that aren't them, that don't suit them, that they should just leave alone bothers me.
I see these people as thieves, it wasn't YOUR style, it belonged to whichever group first, so leave it alone. Maybe it's because not only to they steal someone else's style, they then claim it as their own, and call others followers, maybe it's because the mocked it first, and then it became good enough. Maybe I just can't stand people who aren't REAL, fakers, posers, wanna-bes.
And what these posers don't get, we see through them and know they are so fake it's not funny.
Why be that way, why not be your self and STICK to your own style and stop stealing from other groups. Punks have a look, metal heads have a look, preps have a look, etc... Your outside should match your inside and we can tell when it doesn't.
