You don’t take care of yourselves anymore [/quote]

You use "taking care of yourself" as code for "striving to appear physically attractive to others".  How misogynistic of you.

I'm in excellent health and have excellent hygiene.  I usually wear athletic clothing with my hair in a pony tail and no make up. Why should I care whether randos think I'm attractive or not?

I started my professional career, like a PP, being required to wear pantyhose and makeup.  I'm SO glad those days are over![/quote]

It’s not about others thinking I’m attractive. It’s about respect for myself and respect for those around me. When I’m dressed up and put together, I work harder and do better in everything. You can tell my mental state by the state of my nails.

Besides, it takes just as much time to put on sweatpants as it does to put on a nice outfit. Or do your dressy clothes have some sort of weird contraptions?

I also started off my career in pantyhose and makeup and I wish business formal attire were still a thing. It made most people more present, focused, hardworking and more respectful.

We are degenerating as a society, unfortunately.[/quote]
Pantyhose =/= respecting others[/quote]

Perhaps not, hopping out of bed and going out half washed, with your greasy hair pulled into a ponytail, in your leggings to work or the doctor’s office is a huge FU to everyone you encounter. [/quote]
As long as someone is clean, wearing sweat pants or leggings is not an FU to anyone. Why would you take it personally what anyone else wears? [/quote]

I do take it personally because it shows a complete lack of manners, proper decorum and respect for others. It’s like picking your nose in public or spitting on the street. Sweatpants are for lounging around your house. They are not proper attire to wear in the outside world. Leggings are not pants. They are for being worn under dresses or for working out. If I see you running in the park, wearing either, I won’t mind, [b]but if you’re wearing that out to dinner or work, yeah, it bothers me A LOT that I have to look at you being that rude. [/b]

It’s especially bad if you are the big and beautiful type that likes to wear leggings. I don’t want to see the cellulite in your thighs up that close and personal.

Why even bother getting dressed? Being naked works, too.

I cannot believe how people can be so oblivious to how rude they are.[/quote]
So anyone who doesnt prescribe to DCUM user 555984832738's definition of style is "rude"? LOL puh-lease. You are delulu and are in fact, the rude one. Fat shaming too? Cherry on top. [/quote]

Aw, and here we have it: a BB type who wears leggings to dinner…and wants all of us to ignore it because she’s fabulous just as she is.[/quote]

Why are you busy obsessing over what other people are wearing rather than enjoying the company of your dining party and the food? I couldn't tell you what other people are wearing when I go out and I truly can't imagine their sartorial choices preventing me from having a good time.  [/quote]

For me going out to bars and restaurants is for people watching, not just for food/drinks  and conversation with my friends and family. I cannot help but notice an obese woman in skin tight leggings as pants a table over from me. Perhaps, I’m not a self-absorbed as others are. [u]I like to look at other people, not to judge,[/u] but to observe. [b]I like seeing well dressed, manicured people. It makes me happy. It makes me feel good that others care about putting their best foot forward.[/b] It’s no different than when a stranger smiles and says hello rather than walking by me with a frown.

And if you’re dressed terribly in a nice place, [b]I see it and take offense to it[/b]. It’s like you cannot be bothered with keeping a basic dress code for the sake of decency. I cannot make you dress decently, but [u]you cannot make me see it as anything but disrespect and rudeness coupled with extreme self-satisfaction and self-absorption[/u]. [/quote]
Lol @ calling others "self absorbed" while you're saying the bolded. 
Also, the underlined is clearly a contradiction. You are the definition of judging others? Clearly you are judging someone who doesnt dress to your standard as disrespectful, rude, self satisfied (??) and self absorbed.

Maybe pay more attention to the food drink and ambiance rather than Susan's trackpants and Jakes hoodie. [/quote]

Don’t you get it? Susan’s tracksuit and Jakes hoodie ruin the ambience.

What’s amusing is that you’re upset in the realization that some other people notice your extreme narcissism, which you try to pass off as being above aesthetics (“why should I put some effort into my appearance since I’m already amazing and perfect as is, why that’s superficial and misogynistic”). Face it, there are those of us out there who don’t think you’re unaffected by appearances and above all of it. [b]We know you know that you look bad and that you want the rest of us to put up with it because you’re so incredible and amazing. I’m sorry to burst your bubble[/b]. [/quote]
This is so confusing. Wearing sweat pants doesnt make someone a bad person nor does wearing pantyhose make someone a better person. Neither of these show respect for anyone else. I might give that you would say it is respect for ones self, but either way that doesnt affect you, or your dinner or your grocery shopping. [/quote]
