OK ... new riddle?

1) I am actually the opposite of what I appear to be.
2) I am usually carried by desperate men, but sometimes by desperate woman.
3) I am almost always associated with the wearer's profession.
4) I am often seen in the presence of an exotic bird.

What am I ?

Congratulations @DATo

Great Riddle @@Mounce574

As for the new riddle:
The first two lines seem to describe narcissism because: Narcissism makes a narcissist look more confident when he's actually deeply insecure, and men tend to be more narcissistic than women (not an opinion but a medical fact).

Personality disorder?

Thanks Mindful Wordsmith !!!

@Mindful Wordsmith & @Mounce574

Neither of those .... I am a physical thing.

Hint : Clue #3 - Important clue included the word "wearer" - it is something that is worn.

[DATo]

Hint: Clue #1 - 1) I am actually the opposite of what I appear to be.

I feel a little guilty about this clue because it involves an explanation of facts which are not commonly known. Suffice it to say that the object worn is universally imagined to suggest a debilitated condition of the wearer when in fact the object performs exactly the opposite function.

You are very, very, VERY close. With that in mind re-read the clues.

@Lunastella
Not a wig.

[Stephanie Runyon]

A mirror

[Stephanie Runyon]

Other than a mirror I would think something shiny and reflective
