What was your worst first date experience? Presumably it was worth grumbling¹ about more than this picky lady’s anecdote².

你和一个人第一次约会时，碰见过最糟心的事情是什么？不管是什么，我猜都比这位挑剔小姐的经历要有意思。

The popular girls’ Internet forum³, Girls Channel, is a place where many women congregate⁴ to chat about all kinds of topics: not only date talk, but pop culture, hobbies and health as well.

“女孩频道”是一个时下当红的网络平台，女人们聚在这里谈论各种话题：不光有约会的事，还有流行文化、兴趣、健康以及等等等等。

One woman seeking validation⁵ for her bad date experiences took to Girls Channel to write out the sordid⁶ details.

有一个想要发泄的女人在女孩频道上写下了她那糟糕的约会经历，把各种肮脏的细节都写得一清二楚。

Title: Is it OK to wear cheap fashion on your first date, or no good?

那条博文的标题是：第一次约会的时候穿便宜衣服，合适吗？

“......When I checked the tags, I saw his coat was H&M and the overshirt was from Uniqlo! I was kind of disappointed he wore such casual fashion even though it was our first date together… Oh, by the way, I couldn’t tell how much his shoes cost but they looked like cheap leather ones.”

“……我查看了他衣服的商标，外套是HM的，夹克竟然是优衣库的！他在我们第一次约会的时候竟然穿得这么随便，我真的有点失望……另外，我看不出他的鞋子是多少钱，不过看起来也是便宜的皮货。”

Girls Channel operates on an “upvote” system, so the most approved comments quickly rise to the top. At the time of writing, the top comment is a curt⁷ one:

女孩频道采用的是“赞同”模式的运营系统，所以那些认可人数最多的评论很快就会被顶上楼顶。在这篇文章成文的时候，位于楼顶的那条评论很简单：

“I can’t stand people who only care about top brands.”

“我受不了那些眼里只有名牌的人。”

The other high-ranked comments are similarly damning, and definitely weren’t rushing to validate⁸ the woman’s hasty judgement about her date’s style choices.

其他排行很高的评论也都是差不多的批评态度，而且显然不认可这位女士这种用穿衣来评判第一次约会的行为。

“And who are you to judge, exactly?”

“你又凭什么对这个评头论足？资质是啥？”

“If it suits them, I don’t really care at all.”

“如果和他们本人很搭，我其实不介意。”

“I don’t like people who check other people’s brands that thoroughly⁹.”

“我不喜欢这种把别人身上的牌子看得那么细的人。”

“I actually prefer people who aren’t concerned with fashion, haha. But guys who are obsessed¹⁰ with brands are kind of a turnoff.”

“我其实更喜欢那些不在乎时尚的人，哈哈。而且那些痴迷于品牌的男生反而让我没胃口。”

Perhaps the most cutting remark was “What, and you were dressed head-to-toe in Chanel?” which drives home the point perfectly¹¹.

其中最一针见血的评论可能是“所以？你从头到脚穿的是香奈儿啊？”完美点题。

Most of the commenters seemed to agree that so long as their date was clean, dressed appropriately and an all-round nice person, they really couldn’t care less how they were dressed.

大部分的评论者似乎都认同一个点：只要她们的约会对象干净、得体、人不错，那她们根本就不在乎他们怎么穿衣服。

As another commenter mentioned, “sounds like you care more about the way he’s dressed than the guy himself”.

正如另一条评论提到的：“听起来你似乎更关心他穿什么衣服，而不是他本人。”
