I just think that people see the wig because everyone is obsessed with hair, even myself, even though I don't have any. Honey. Yeah. You'll realize that people that have different kinds of wigs, I'll be diplomatic about it. Also have different kinds of makeup and have different kinds of fashion. And when it comes to attracting not just white men, but any men, especially wealthy men, wealthy white men will be attracted to that because.
The normal shit bores them. Yeah. You are going to have to be fascinating. Right. And when you have the interesting wig and makeup and fast fashion, he's gonna look at you and he's gonna be like, that's someone that's interesting. That is someone that is entertaining. And I want to learn more about that person. That's why they approach and talk to bad wigs. Also, please realize, like, no shade, but, like, when you look a mess.
And you're out and about, that is when people will approach you the most because.
The probability of rejection in their mind goes down lower. If you're dressed to the nines, you will rarely get approached.
