Oh, don't get me wrong: I pick what I wear carefully, for aspects that I enjoy being associated with, and so do others. One can even infer what you are - or, at least, what you present yourself as - from what you wear. What I mean to say is - it's not as powerful a story as people make of it, and it certainly shouldn't impact how you treat a person. It does, very often, but it shouldn't: humans are humans, whatever they wear; it's not the color of their hat and not the silk of their jacket that makes them what they are.
