    I’ve been both dolled up and plain and there is a tangible difference to how you get treated.

    I choose to look plain these days just so I can get a clearer read on character.

      Word. I wear no makeup, I don’t have high-end fashion clothing, and I don’t really do much to my hair or style it. The difference between me now and me 10yrs ago (when I did do those things) is funny and sad.

      I’d rather do without all the extra stuff and, like you said, get a better read on character, than to doll myself up and question whether everyone is genuine or not.
