Nov. 14th, 2012 07:15 amOnce in a while I realize that I contrast between caring a great deal about appearance, and being a raging hypocrite. I'm very body-oriented, and my general instant on sight assessment typically comes in the gym or if you're dressed in body-revealing clothing.
However, I dress like shit. I mean I put effort into my appearance, but to me this means spiking my hair, picking the right converse shoes, and a funny t-shirt. I barely know how to dress myself.
I see a girl in make up, with super tweezed eyebrows, and any type of professional or preppy dress and they're off the radar. Not that anyone knows or cares what my internal judgments on other people's appearances, but I enjoy the contrast between how I view others and what the mirror would say about me.
I'm not a total hypocrite though - I do prefer someone with a flawless body (or flaws I like, such as a pooch) that dresses ... comfortable? Arty?
