Looking like a thug

[Archaxis]

I did grow up in the hood and in my observations, i've gotta say it's still your personality that matters. The only reason that a woman would be attracted to the bad boy look would be because as soon as she sees the fashion, she automatically expects a certain mindset from the person. If you don't have the mindset, the clothes will just look stupid on you but you can change your mindset without changing your look... The badboy mindset is of utmost confidence/pride/living on your own terms, that means basically... you do whatever the **** you want, and yea, women are attracted to it

Well, there's the big paradox of the situation... and the badboy look, and/or the badboy mindset has nothing to do with it really, if you need to be known as a badboy to attract women, then you need to be in a situation where you know women in the first place! So even if you, like me, have the personality, and can get the look going... it still won't get you far. You are more likely to be seen as the angry, mysterious loaner than anything. :nono: Once again, I preach that the guys that get the most tail are the ones with the most extensive social networks and these sorts of personality and image gimmicks are largely a waste of time. I've got the empirical proof in wasting my own time with such malarky.

Yea, well if you don't know any women then yes... knowing women is essential to... having women... if you currently don't know many, you should go out and just meet some, if you dress a certain way and act a certain way, you'll be perceived... in that way, go figure.

But even so, I'm sure everyone must have SOME sort of social network and the only way someone would perceive you as a loner would be 1)if you are a loner or 2)if you're oversensitive with people seeing you as one, which would just seem weird to them...

Lastly, if you see what you wear as being an image gimmick, then i suggest you wear something that you're more comfortable in, if you like some clothes and want to wear them, there's absolutely nothing gimmicky about that... if you're wearing clothes for some other reason than liking them on yourself, then... yes, then you can call it a stupid gimmick.

I hate to tell you this, but hanging out with those types of people doesn't garner you respect, nor does it make you a bad boy.

Let's be real though, he's 16, so if he acts like he says he does and hangs out with those kind of people, the 16yo girls will think of him in a certain attractive way, I completely understand what you're saying but when you're that age it's a bit different... Also you need to take into the picture with what type of girls he's talking to, personally I was never into preppy girls at that age, that's for sure...

No... not necessarily. I have one or two male friends I hang out with and they don't really have any social network... so I'm talking about when you tough it all up visually, and then head out solo. People simply precieve something being wrong with you if your alone.

First off, what's all the hate on the stoners man? We don't hurt no body .

Second, not everyone uses pot to "fill an emotional void" or some BS. I smoke pot to get high and like it, and I can go sober if I want to (and don't gimme that BS that I can't I'm going 2 months without it this summer and I'm FINE).

Finally, sure you can dress bad boy, whatever, but what it really comes down to is your skill. I've had preppy girls tell me they like me (I'm black and dress pretty "gangsta" if thats what yall like to call it), and I've had black girls tell me they like me, asian girls as well, it doesn't matter, all that matters is you. As long as you don't look like trash, you'll be fine, relax.
