| Topic: does the way someone dress | |

Yes. As a friend of mine said the other day after seeing a girl with nothing on.......that girl must have shopped at the dime store......she only got a dimes worth of that dress. I think the same thing when I see a guy with his pants hanging off of his butt. When I see those guys I think, I hope no one throws something at them or they are gonna loose their draws.... |

Women should be able to dress the way they want, the way they are comfortable. It's unfortunate that we live in a society, with men such as your friend, who still hold such archaic notions. It's one of the reasons many rapists are never brought to justice, too many men (and some women) who think that a woman brought it on herself by dressing provocatively or going out alone, etc. That is exactly the point I stated too.... Believe me I was hopping mad... there was yelling, not gonna lie. I'm not a particularly violent person but I might have had to attempt to knock some sense into him

He has been screwed over by every woman he's ever been with, but that's his fault, he doesn't see it that way though... |

So this "friend" of mine tried to tell me that statistically if a woman dresses more provocively then she has more sex, and ultimately women who dress like that have more babies out of wedlock.... Seriously that's what he said to me... I was like WTF??? I asked him where his statistics came from but he couldn't site any of course.... OMG, how old is he? Shshsh he does need to get in the real world. Hummmmmmmm or maybe I need to start dressing more sexy shshsh no wonder it has been so long lmao  He's 40, and been screwed over by every woman he's ever been with...so go figure on his view huh? Well I feel for him to end up with all the bad ones. But....... just maybe he is looking for the wrong type of women is why he has had the luck that he has so far. |

He's a big guy, and he dated this girl who ADORED him, hung on his every word, he told me once, that she didn't "do it for him" this girl would have gone to the ends of the earth for him, he dumped her and dated a "princess" so I laughed when she stole a few thousand dollars from him and left town... He totally deserved that one... |

Unfortunately, yes it does make a difference in this society and we are taught it by not only our own family and friends but the tele and media in general.
I chose to buck the system and dress how I feel. Sometimes sexy and flirty and everything inbetween including comfortable "style be damned" and I can tell the differences in each stage of dress how I will get treated. For example: Step into a department store with the "style be damned" outfit on and you will be followed by store security

does the way someone dress alter what you think about them? and to what extent does it alter your perception of them? i'm just gonna answer this OP without reading any of the other pages (even though i skimmed ahead initially) it's late at night, you are alone, and you're leaving a bar: on one side of the street are a couple of punks, multiple piercings, tattoos, or maybe a homeless man, tattered and torn clothing, so heavily bearded you couldn't see his face, hat pulled down over his eyes on other other side of the street walks a well dressed business man, in a suit with a briefcase, and clean shaven which side of the road would you walk on? ~~~ yes, the way someone is dressed does alter your perception. i'm a FIRM believer in that one should dress in the way that they feel most comfortable and that which most expresses their behaviour. but i am also aware that it does change one's opinion of my character (whether right or wrong) ~~~ as far as a woman who dresses sexy being one who has sex more frequently and/or has more pregnancies seems like rubbish to me. i'd like to see his 'statistics' as well |

It's ok the one he dumped was a chef she met a really really nice guy who happened to be LOADED and they moved to Texas and he opened a restaurant for her to run..... and everyone in the end got what they deserved.... |

Well, they do say to dress for the job you want:)
I mean yes, I think it does effect the way you think of the other person somewhat. * shrugs* |

if they are always dressed slutty yah it ulters my opinion. What do you assume if you see them dressed like that? honestly that they are easy. theres a different between showing some skin and being sexy/classy and being whorish |

<--- wears turtlenecks and still shows clevage...
I've been called whorish and slutty yet went home alone and didn't even flirt with anyone. I think judging a woman on how "slutty" they look speaks more of you than it does of the person wearing the outfit, I've found that the ones who judge are just too afraid or too ashamed of their body to dress like that. JMHO |

What about the theory that some women are just more comfortable dressing more provocatively than others, that's my theory. I tend to dress a bit more conservatively cause that's my comfort zone. Has nothing whatsoever to do with what's going on in my bedroom or my morales. |

JMHO I agree 100%, I have found in evaluating my own reactions to different women, if I am feeling negatively about her and how she dressed, it really has to do with how I am feeling about myself at the time. I try not to be catty about other women. I believe the more negativity I send out the more I will get back so I think positive thoughts instead. I say, Go girl, if you got it and you feel like showing it, go for it, no foul from me.

if i call a repair man, to fix my car, he'd better not come over in a suit...im gonna think he knows nothing of cars...
if i call a lawyer, and when i meet him, he's in sweats, im gonna rethink hiring him.. the clothes do NOT make the person, however, dress the role you play.. |

I think you are on to something there, if we as women can't see what we do to each other and the disrespectful way we treat each other, how in the world are we to expect a man to treat us with respect? Look at women who work in offices and there's always one that gets promoted and EVERYONE men and women assume it is because they are sleeping with the boss, or wears "slutty clothes" couldn't possibly be her fortitude or intelligence could it? There are two words in the English language that make my blood boil one is the "N" word and the other is whore..... I don't like words of hate, it only speaks of the person using them, not of the person they are speaking about. |
