The Dark Culture Of Social Clubs

Yo,

I have been in a running club and a founder community lately.

And without a doubt, I learned a lot as an individual and grew with people and experiences.

But…

There's another thing which is quietly killing me.

I can't just be myself, especially in some social situations. And social hierarchy works in that way.

If you're going to any high-level surrounding, you have to dress well, smell good, and most importantly, have to be good-looking.

So there's always a pressure on me to look good and dress well.

Also, I get questioned by people: "Why are you not wearing other colours of T-shirts rather than black? Why isn't it branded?"

So all this status and show-off culture, I personally hate it. But have to go through it. 

Cause I am waiting for a day when I can wear anything with whoever and wherever I want without being questioned.

Because I will be the man in the room. And it also depends on you as well.

Whether you like to wear fancy, minimalist or the same dressing as usual like me lol.
