Re: Guys - have you ever given this a thought You said, “I am trying not letting my style affecting my job. Heaven forbid”, but then go to point out how it has, “They been telling me I have changed my personality. I am more gentle, I listen more, seems to care more about other people.”
I don’t see how it could not affect how you work at you job. As a consultant, I assume you are working with people, so paying more attention to them would be a good thing.
Sweden may be a very different place than the USA (and I suspect it is), but when I go out in thigh boots with 5” heels, I expect people to initially be put off a little. It takes some effort for them to overcome their first reaction, some do but some don’t. I wouldn’t do this in a work environment where sometimes the first impression you make is the only chance you get. I don’t think a consultant coming into our business would be tolerated if he wore a skirt and heels, no matter how good he was.
On a whole different topic, you say you are wearing 5” pumps, have you ever tried boots, either knee high or thigh high?
Last note: I’m sure this was a typo but I’m not Thighbootboy.
