What you wear is who you are

I read in an article today that if everything else were the same , the  decision to chose one individual over the other would be made based on their appearance and what they wear. Working in the recruitment industry I deal with people a lot and perceptions are made about people in a fraction of a second based on several criteria's like what  you wear , how you speak and who you hang out with.

It seems extremely unfair , but unfortunately in a world wear decisions are made first by the eyes, it seems the rule of the game. No wonder increasingly more number of people have issues with the self confidence and body image. No wonder people who don't fit into this frame that society forces upon people are always left feeling insignificant.

I do believe being healthy is extremely important and I do believe self confidence is also important, but I don't think they way you look should have anything to do with how good you are in your work.
