#conformist

He’s such a little emo

Monogamous/Monoamorous (monogamy/monoamory): being or aspiring to be in a gamous/amorous (marital/enamoured) relationship; performing monofidelity or a singular interpersonal partnering (couple); someone who enforces amatonormative assimilation, reinforces romantic-love structure supremacy, or dynamicize natalist formation (compulsory monogamism nationalism).

The basic criteria for the Stepford style are:

Khaki pants.

Tucking in the clothes.

Visible belt.

Dress shoes.

Classic hairstyle.

If you want to adopt the Stepford style, do it gradually - not all at once. People shouldn't be shocked; they should slowly understand where you're heading. Gradually replace your wardrobe. Take more care with your grooming and your home, keep a schedule, and avoid being loud. There are different types of Stepford styles, and I'll show them to you now.

1) The Gent

Defined by: Dress Shirt + Khaki Pants.

They may also wear blazers, but that's not mandatory.

Example 1 (blazer):

This is the easiest Stepford style to adopt because it's widely accepted in the mainstream, especially in the finance and business industries. You don't have to be a banker to dress this way - the style is very affordable, as button-down shirts don't have to be expensive if you know where to look.

People may also take you more seriously, even if you aren't wealthy.

Example 2 (non-blazer):

2) The Good Boy

Defined by: Dress Shirt + Sweater Vest + Khaki Pants.

When you give a Gent a sweater vest, he becomes a Good Boy. This style is less common in the mainstream, which makes it even more obvious that you're a Stepford. However, once your Stepford cult is large enough, that won't matter.

Example 1:

The sweater vest is especially useful in colder weather, such as autumn or spring. It gives your style a neat touch that can make you seem more educated and approachable, though some people may assume you're privileged.

Example 2 (ignore the shoes):

3) The Rich Kid

Defined by: Poloshirt + Khaki Pants.

This style is common among wealthy people - just watch Donald Trump while he's golfing. Unlike the Gent, the Rich Kid doesn't come across as a banker; he comes across as a spoiled person looking for ways to have fun. I recommend this style when you're going to a sports-related activity with friends.

Example 1 (picture from @cartertheprep):

Your tedious personality and banal interests - anime, right? I'm right, aren't I? - are not a "gender."

A generation ago, you would have been an emo. Before that, a goth. And before that, a punk. You're doing exactly the same thing: trying to "non-conform" in the most conformist, mundane, predictable way of all: following a fashionable trend.

Everybody around you thinks it's stupid, knows what you are, and knows it's a phase you'll grow out of. Just like all the emos, goths and punks did.

Gender Conforming: behavior or gender expression by an individual that matches masculine or feminine gender norms.

Trans: a term describing individuals whose gender or sex identity doesn't match one's birth assignment; being transsex and/or transgender.
