If everyone would do a study on how the early church lived, it would put us all the shame while a lot of us want to hold us to our excessiveness while trying to please God. It just doesn't work. I know that to be a fact. We must seek His will and especially when it comes to how we appear and the spirit behind why we are appearing the way we appear.

I think one issue is how the "we appear" standards is presented. Many are counterproductive in the manner they present it.
