Judging someone by appearance...

Re: Judging someone by appearance...

I think people both conciously and subconciously express themselves through their dress, hair etc. So I think in some ways, it's fair to judge by looks. I know just by looking at certain people that I won't share their political, religious, personal opinions. It doesn't mean I totally avoid speaking to them. But I do sum them up into a cliche. It's probably human nature or maybe a self-defense mechanism. I've also learned to trust my gut instincts concerning people. I used to help in my mil's jewelry store and sometimes my inner buzzer would ring when certain people walked in the store. They resulted in bad checks, thefts and attempted thefts.
