I'm not commenting on the dressing like thugs thing really, but there are plenty of ways a guy can dress where I won't date him, even if he is the nicest guy.
I wouldn't date a guy who dresses like a metrosexual because I can't stand people taking longer to get ready than I do.
I wouldn't date a guy who has holes in all his clothes because he obviously doesn't give a rat's about his personal appearance, and can't fully appreciate mine.
I'd date a guy who wears pleated pants because expecting all men to know the difference is a little unreasonable - plus I can just throw them out as they wear out and make sure he doesn't buy any more.
Really, if there's a guy with a sense of personal style but doesn't let style rule his life - that's datable material to me. I'm not into changing guys to fit what I would like them to look like, but I am into guys that take my input seriously and consider it (whether or not they actually take my fashion advice).
Most importantly, I like guys that know what looks good, and not trashy, on me, and are willing to give me their own input. If we look like a well-put together, but not image obsessed, young couple when we go out together that's ideal.
Live-in's one of those pleated pants guys, but most of those pants have worn out and have been disposed of. He takes my advice when he goes shopping, but knows what he likes and doesn't act like a dress up doll for me. If I look good in something, he tells me, and if I have something funky going on with my outfit he lets me know.
His thing is sneakers and tee shirts, but he takes really good care of his favorite sneakers and his favorite tees, plus he wears a ton of really cool stuff when it comes to sneakers and tees, so I can't fault him on that, because he doesn't wear any of those cheesy graphic tees that you get at Target.
