Everyone thinks i'm gay anyway. Might as well bring my own reusable bag.

"You're not homophobic. You're homochondriac"
I recall reading that in a meme on Lemmy.
A style used to hide blemishes and hair loss from things like Syphilis.
Also Shampoo:
Shampoo (Hindi: chāmpo from Sanskrit capayati: to press, knead, or soothe) entered Europe in the mid‑18th century when Sake Dean Mahomed, an Indian entrepreneur, opened the first shampooing salon in Brighton, England; his establishments popularised the Ayurvedic blend of herbs, oils, and extracts that are origin of today’s shampoo. Before that, Europeans did not use a dedicated cleansing product. Hair was typically rinsed with water mixed with vinegar, ash or herbs, and many households relied on egg‑yolk washes (often beaten with warm water) as a gentle cleanser and conditioner. These rudimentary methods kept hair relatively clean but left residues that could weigh the hair down, especially under the heavy wigs fashionable from the late‑16th century onward. Wigs offered a practical solution before shampoo: they protected the scalp from lice, reduced the need for frequent washing, and allowed wearers to maintain a tidy appearance despite the limited cleaning agents available.

I think "It's okay to be a little metrosexual in the 20s"
So dumb. I love my big bag. There is a store where I can grab a scanning "gun" and walk along adding my items into my bag. Then it's a really quick checkout at the self serve machine.
Straight white dude here and not afraid of being perceived as gay! Long hair to boot.
My wardrobe could best be described as “lazy Saturday afternoon.” I just want to wear comfortable clothes in muted colours. I don’t like drawing attention to myself.
The whole "long hair = gay" thing is such weird boomer shit. It's right up there with believing that gay men wear dresses and makeup.
It's not even 21st century homophobia. It's like something out of the 1950s.
