I look cindof ordinary, i guess. How about you people, how do you look, what cindes of cloths do you where? Hows your hair?

Is there any "progg-look" at all really? I gues that some people look metal, some peolple hippie?, and somepeople cindof ordinary right?

I'm sometimes told I look "metal" or "emo" but thats mainly because my wallet has a chain on it (which is honestly to keep it from falling out of my pocket... i lose things easily), and my chuck taylor shoes (still the best shoes ever made even after 50 years IMO).  other than that, mainly ordinary clothes, band t-shirts, sweaters and hoodies in the winter. 

there is not "look" or fashion associated with prog and that's part of whats great about it.  it's not really a social scene so much as a kind of good music.  for instance, "emo" and punk are social scenes, and in the case of emo, it is practically its own fashion line.  prog is just good music, and thats the end of it.

I look like a typical middle American 30-something dork.

We probably all look and act a bit nerdy, but remember the wise words of Bill Gates- be kind to nerds they will, one day, be your boss

I keep my hair short, with a part and a nice cowlick. For clothes, whatever looks nice, fits and is really, really cheap (so I can spend more money on music, of course ).

well, I don't have my name for nothing; I'm as bald as bald can be, from head to toe. I don't even have eyelashes. and the same is true for my wife (it is no secret in here that BaldFriede and I are a married lesbian couple). and that hair was removed permanently, it doesn't regrow anymore. we haven't had any regrowth for 6 years meanwhile. call us nuts, if you like. there are some reasons why we chose the completely hairless look; if you are curious you can ask us

I'm not answering for them, but one nice point of being bald is that hairless skin feels very nice to touch.  I'm a very hairy person, lot's of shaving activity going on at my apartment. As for clothes, I wear classical styled costumes.

having no eyelashes is really only a problem on a sandy beach on a windy day, and one can always wear shades then. Friede and I are high priestesses of a pagan religion; the absolute hairlessness is a symbol of purity. call us nuts; you wouldn't be the first one . we love it

several laser treatments. they had to be repeated a few times because there is always some dormant hair. only the eyelashes we simply plucked until they did not regrow anymore

OUCH!! That sounds friken painful but it only adds to my admiration...you and your wife are WAY cool!

Me= My name is Imogen and I look like your average brown-haired blue-eyed nineteen-year-old except for a few glitches: I'm annoyingly short (1.45m tall. approx) and I have fustratingly large breasts (much to the annoying appreciation of some of the men who pass me in the street.) My facial features are quite plain- eyes pretty, nose slightly pointed and a bit of an acne prob... and there's a permanent tiny red dot on the tip of my nose that's been there since I was 12. I SUX I tell you! I have dimples, I can wiggle my nose and ears and I have been descibed as "Cuteness itself" by one of the actors I've worked with.

I like to wear black clothes and dark make-up 'gothic-style' but usually I just dress casually (like I am now: light flare-out jeans with a purple top and kahi-green cardigan.)  And now that it's spring- I've taken to wearing jasmine flowers in my hair as there's a jasmine bush on our fence and it looks and smells gorgeous so I can't resist.

By your description he must be abolutely right!
As for me, I'm 1.60m, blue eyes, not-too-short-nor-too-long hair
(whatever that means) which were once light brown but are now
increasingly going grey, goatee, I usually wear shirts and black or
blue jeans. waistcoats are my favourite piece of clothing.
too average?
