Can people tell you're /lit/ from what you look like?

>> No.9138318

If they can, you're probably doing it wrong

50% of /lit/ is probably female, so probably an atypical femanon.

I wear a custom-made shirt consisting entirely of torn out pages from a physical copy of Hypersphere I then glued together. So yeah.

Dress with the understanding that everyone around you will judge you based on your appearance. Always wear what is appropriate for your goals, given the contexts you'll be in.

I think it's a bad sign if you are immediately recognizable as a reader or something similar because you're most likely following trends without thinking about your appearance, meaning others can easily categorize you as a certain identity & like/dislike you based on that.

desu I prefer neutral clothing so I can more easily adapt to the other person's expectations. Coming off as "a reader" often also means (to the people judging you) that you are, on the one hand, elitist, maladjusted, 'don't get it', awkward, loser, or on the other hand a trend-following 'i brag about reading' high schooler. There are like 0 situations in which I want to be either.

Genuinely, how far do you think a no mobile phone sign would go now without somebody informing the world their chromosomes were offended?

If 50% of /lit/ is female then maybe at least one of them will be my girlfriend.

I'm 5"10 and like books, if anybody's interested?

To be honest I would really be interested to just talk with a female from 4chan. Not even in the romantic way necessarily. I'm just curious.

Me too. I doubt it's anywhere near 50% as the other anon said but I do wonder what goes through their mind when they see somebody quote Schopenhauer thread for the 10th time today.

Even as a guy, I try to avoid all of that jazz.

I tend to dress something like this so I imagine people probably think I spend more time following trends than I do reading.

Unfortunately for my social life, that's not true.

I imagine you'd have to just ignore them like any other shitposts.
It would probably hurt my self esteem if I saw similar jokes bandied around about me, but I'm a fragile child :-/

You could talk in this thread until it's deleted. What do you want to know?

>>9138463
Like the other anon said, you just pass it by. It's the same as any other low-quality shitpost.

>> No.9138566

>>9138463
Those threads are only annoying because of their frequency and lack of thought. There have been mysoginistic shitposts that were also hilarious due to their creativity.

People take one look at me and assume i am:
- german (im irish)
- gay (im not)
- intelligent (i'm a B- student)
- patrician (i'm working class scum)

basically, i'm a massive disappointment to the people who get to know me.
