Are you willing to change for social acceptance?

In summary: I think it would be a bit much to try to change everything about yourself just for the sake of not being judged.

The biggest thing you can do that will have the most impact (other than plastic surgery) would be to dress nicely and be well groomed. Remember, most communication between you and a total stranger is NON verbal (probably 80%). What you wear and how you present yourself says a huge amount on your behalf. My best frined works in intelligence in the Marine Corps, and one of the first things he evaluates on a mark is what they are wearing. Well dressed people always turn heads, whether we like to admit it or not.

I agree. Stay clean, avoid being "unkempt," and dress well. Having a nice car is very good :)
