gollark: I think it's mostly just costly signalling, really.
gollark: Also broadly speaking that said more fancy clothes are better somehow than the T-shirt/"sweatpant" trouser things I actually like wearing.
gollark: I mean that they insist I need cotton shirts (because natural → good somehow?!) and also have to wear ironed clothes?
gollark: Well, they seem to think that I should wear excessively fancy clothes (beyond the somewhat-fancy-clothes requirement of my school dress code) or people will judge me for it somehow?
gollark: I care somewhat about appearance, but your comment reminds me very much of the whole thing my parents have with looking "smart".
