Grooming oneself is definitely a good way to make yourself more attractive. Just look at all the celebs with or without makeup and nice clothes. It makes a world of difference, and is also applicable to everyone.
I have nothing against grooming. But an enormous chunk of our economy is devoted to selling images and dreams of beauty, rather than actually doing anything. Check out the chemistry of a $5 bottle of shampoo and a $50 bottle. Question why people are driven to purchase a new clothing every single season, as if their existing wardrobes are somehow inadequate.
My complaint was never about the use of clothes, cosmetics, etc. It was the illusion that buying all of these things can make you look like the people in the advertisements, and that will make you successful and happy.
