Standards by years of porn, commercials, tv, movies adds way too much unnecessary stress.
Stress, of course, but all our life is still about standarts, we can't escape that. We have certain standarts for the way we dress, for the type of a job we work, for a type of a car we drive, for how our PHYSIQUE does look... Standarts may change, for the better or worse, but if a person has a strict standart in a certain area - he/she will do anything and everything to make it real once again (if lost), that's how it works. These who are poor, well thats their standart of living, if they simply could not deal with this lower standart - they'd get rich, no matter what ways, but they would. Some have lower standarts for their body, majority I'd say, they can walk around fat and semi-disabled, while other can't accept that in no way (you'd rather find me dead than fat or generally "out of shape" for ex. I may skip a funeral of a family member but will get a workout, that's the standarts. I am kidding on this last one, just to make a good example). When someone tells you Ï don't care about clothes, I can't understand why it's important. That person simply tells that he has low (or no) standarts for the way he dressess. And it's ok, he/she probably relates to similar people too. While these who dress well usualy tend to hang with other people who have similar standarts for how they look. Simple.
