keeping it real
Everyone discriminates based on appearance but wearing cartoon characters on one's shirt (or avatar) as a grown up is pretty normal/mainstream/basic and I think judging someone based on clothes rather than values is a bit petty. If I see someone with pink hair or wearing a tuxedo or a mohawk I will have a momentary opinion about it like anyone but that opinion is secondary to how they speak and how they treat others.Maybe you are uniquely gifted, and I don’t mean it sarcastically, to not discriminate based on appearance—but I think most of us do, and we connect the choices people make with their appearance with the things they are saying to us. If he was dressed as a 16th century European knight, I’d listen to him spin a good yarn about a heroic warrior in the Black Forest, but I wouldn’t ask him about 10-year treasury bonds.
