He looks like he'd be a total douchebag, but actually super nice guy with a heart of gold.

I feel like we've wrapped back around to guys with that look generally being chill these days to be honest. That's been my experience at least

Once that look was no longer "in style", anyone who cared primarily about looking cool (more likely your fake, shallow, self-absorbed ones) went with another look.

Anyone who stuck with it at that point, especially when it became completely uncool, was still doing it because they personally liked it, accepting the judgement/ridicule. That's pretty genuine commitment to something, which suggests they're more of a genuine person in other areas of life too.
