Sorry, but also an older woman.
Yeah I know that. I'm just stating that we elder millennials maintain exacting standards. Workout, dress up, and don't let everything grow freely. Have some self respect.
I do all of those things, too, but it’s interesting that you equate it with self-respect. It’s just learned behavior, nothing more. Strict adherence to cultural norms is really more about following without questioning, about wanting to fit in. I’d argue that the people who go against the grain really have more self respect.
One of the defining symptoms of depression is not grooming up to normal standards. It's not a far stretch to day that people who don't groom per conventional social standards
may be suffering from self worth issues.
I've noticed that in Florida, some women are growing sparse beards and it appears to be a fashion choice. I don't think it enhances their looks but it is a conscious grooming choice, at least. Even in that case, I'm opposed to it. Part of being human is appreciating and seeking beauty. There is something perverse and against the human spirit to actively cultivate ugliness-- in looks, in interior design, etc and then pretend that people are lesser for reacting negatively (as humans do) to ugliness.
