People like to judge people by their appearance.

But the truth is that many people who look unfriendly are actually quite gentle, and there are many things that look harmless that can cause harm. Sometimes beauty and danger go hand in hand. Like the enchanting and poisonous flowers in nature, the reason they are poisonous is actually a protective mechanism to prevent them from being picked up by animals.

For a long time, women have been conditioned and disciplined to be what women still are, to be elegant, lovely, well behaved, clean and tidy, but after following this no one can guarantee women's safety, instead they are being led to go against the grain and learn to compromise.

The succubus was originally a supernatural individual in medieval European and Middle Eastern folklore, but the succubus chic has been incorporated into fashion to be more ambitious, lustful and rebellious. I support people who like this misanthropic and mysterious style, don't care about being perfect, don't cater to society's preferences and be your most powerful self.

That way maybe you will no longer be a target for the bad guys, but an object of their fear.

If people are always more willing to believe what appearances show, then use it, even if it's just the cajoling effect of the way you dress, if it protects you, that's part of what fashion can contribute. I want to criticise superficiality in this way, but it is also my defence mechanism against harm, my sense of self-protection.
