I am a fanatic about sunscreen every day on my face and always washing and putting on moisturizer at night. And my skin has few wrinkles and no sun damage. Eye make up is a no no if you have eye infections especially mascara so may woman don't realize that if you get an eye infection any product that you used while you were getting it needs to be thrown out because it will keep infecting the eye over ad over again. I think we may be talking at cross purposes because I am not talking about what you wear gaming or hanging out with your nerd friends. I have known nerds who don't own anything else and don't understand why their family is upset that they wore their Darth Vader shirt to their sister's wedding or grandma funeral.My roommate Linda lives in T shirts mainly black ones I got her a shirt that says I will stop wearing black when I find something darker. But she has some good interview, fancy, party outfits and some cute casual shirts for occasions when a t is not the best choice. She never wears make up and her hair is long enough to sit on. She puts it up for work. This is just who she is. I am not trying to be really judgmental here I don't judge people on what they wear. But my point is that a lot of people do and dressing to fit into the mainstream can be helpful especially if you are looking for a job or a date or if you are at the companies picnic and you don't work for a gaming company. I know how expensive they are to buy. I once spent 35.00 dollars on a silk screened T with Beauty and the Beast on it from the 80s TV show.  But not all autistic people react to the same thing I have a friend who can't handle noise it drives her crazy she can't go to the movies because of people eating pop corn yet she is a huge fashionista. I am sure there are autistic spectrum people who become nerds but there are also people who become nerds because they are intelligent , because they don't fit in any where else or because their parents were nerds and they were raised to be nerds. Most of the kids I knew back when my son was a child during the 80s whose parents were into Sf fandom, gaming ,in the SCA grew up to be nerds mine did. The ones that didn't well we joke about how heartbreaking that some how a nerd raised a mundane. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
