Judging People By Their Clothing Is So Last Season

Haven't we learned that personality is more important than clothing?

Judging People By Their Clothing Is So Last Season

One night as I was scrolling through social media, I saw a post of five girls with text above them. Four of them were wearing a clubbing outfit or clothing that boosted their confidence, while the other girl was wearing a hoodie and jeans. The girls that were not covered from head to toe had their background story written, letting the reader know that they were not, in fact, sluts; however, the girl wearing a hoodie, assumed they were, and that is the topic of this article. We assume people's personality based on what they are wearing and bash them for that.

We live in a time that judging someone by their appearance can take any turn. For instance, some rich people don't walk around wearing expensive clothing. Some people wear clothing they can barely afford to fit in to gain higher social friends. There are even social experiments to show who has a bigger heart!

Besides, talking trash about someone is terrible. You don't know what is going on in their life, yet you have no problem calling them names. It also shows that there is a problem with you —for example, bullies. Bullies bully people because they have a problem at home and have no courage to talk about it, so they take it out on others. Some people with low-self esteem spread rumors about others, possibly more successful persons than them because they want to be them but are not confident enough.

One piece of advice I would like to give is if you feel the need to judge someone based on what they wear, picture yourself in their shoes. Would you talk trash about yourself? Also, analyze the environment: if you are at the club, it is okay to wear clubbing clothing. If you are not at the club, then perhaps you can approach them and let them know they should probably go home and change clothing. It is better to save someone from embarrassment rather than judging them. It also makes you a better person, making you happier in the process. Who knows, you might make a friend that way.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
