CatNtheHat Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 Curious as to how much men notice about how a woman dresses. We all know if a woman has a nice figure and isn't wearing much clothing, heads will turn. But do men notice just as much if a woman is dressed in a more conservative and classy manner? I think the way a person dresses tells a lot about them. So when I see women dressed in a "trashy" way, its hard not to come to some kind of conclusion about the kind of person she is.. Wondering what men thought..
musemaj11 Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 A lot of women dont realize how judgmental men are of the way they dress. Women probably think that the men who are staring at them are thinking of how the revealing dress they are wearing make them look beautiful while little do they know that those men on the other hand are simply thinking of how whorish their dress is and what nasty things they want to do to them in that slutty dress. This is a fact.
Andy_K Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 Revealing or tight fitting clothing looks hot. It's more likely to catch my attention. It also doesn't lessen my respect for said girls. Some guys differ...

Wondering what men thought.. Tbh, it's very hard to tell nowadays. I know A LOT of women who dress classy, but will literally jump into bed with you if they simply like you. My ex was like this too... haha. So, the "smart" gets around the block type of girl tends to dress pretty classy, if you ask me.
Nexus One Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 As a guy I do notice the way a woman dresses.
Crabbies Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 Most modern fashion looks unladylike to me, too tarty... I like retro, vintage styles particularly 40s, 50s, even 60s.. Even strippers look classy in vintage wear Dita Von Teese...
Star Gazer Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 If I walk into the grocery store fresh off a boat, wearing little shorts and a bikini top, men will notice and approach me. If I walk into the same grocery store straight off of work wearing a figure flattering pencil skirt, fitted sweater and slingback heels, men will notice and approach me. But, then type and quality of men in each circumstance will be very different. You have to pick the right bait for the right fish.
Author CatNtheHat Posted August 18, 2011 Author Posted August 18, 2011 I think women that dress very provocatively usually live the same way. I saw a woman last week at the supermarket, it was middle of the day and she looked like a hooker. I doubt that she was a hooker but that's what her outfit screamed. I was in the same aisle and went to pick out a box of cereal and saw two guys looking as she was bending over. The dress she had on was extremely short. She looked like she was trying to show off her birth canal. I think as a woman if you dress this way, you are LOOKING for attention from men. And if you need attention in such a negative way, you must be missing something from your life.
Lil1 Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 She looked like she was trying to show off her birth canal. I agree that if a woman chooses to dress provocatively then she should expect all sorts of men to show her attention and some of it may not be pleasant. Personally I have never felt comfortable wearing clothing that's too revealing but like Star Gazer so aptly put it, "You have to pick the right bait for the right fish". If it's a hot day and I'm surrounded by quality hotties (and if I'm not solo!) then yes, I will frolic in my shortest tightest daisy dukes that show off my assets But I would never wear something like that if it is out of context or if I'm surrounded by trashy men.
zengirl Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 I agree with SG on the bait thing, though I get the best reactions when I'm dressed down (assuming it's somewhere appropriate for that---it's not like I'm wearing jeans to a ball). Jeans and a blouse or leggings and a very casual dress. . . my everyday wear stuff? I don't know if it's the men I've been dating or what in recent years, but I also get more male compliments on my flat cute shoes than I ever did on my strappy heels and more on my casual/toned down pieces than I ever did/do on my fancy ones. I imagine what clothes men like vary by type of guy a lot, though. The sluttiest I look = a nice dress that shows cleavage and/or (never together) a somewhat short dress (bum still covered, naturally) without the leggings. Or tight jeans. You highlight legs, bum, or cleavage. Never more than 1. That's what I was taught, and I'll barely show cleavage except when with my BF. One of my good friends (a yuppie type who dresses kind of like an upscale BCBG ad, so sexy---I cannot remember not seeing her cleavage and usually somewhat tight, but appropriately so to most people) met a guy the other day who said, "You dress SO conservative." Well, he works in a bar scene type place around half-naked chicks. So, I guess it's all in what you typically see.
John Michael Kane Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 Slutty dressers are a turn-off. I so agree with you.
Ginger Beer Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 I so agree with you. Yeah, obviously when you see a woman showing a lot off and she's got a killer body, I do recognise that and you can't deny she's attractive but the way she's dressed is a sign to stay as far away from her as possible.

Exactly. She looks good but to touch is like touching poison.
confusedgirl56 Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Great question. How a woman dresses is so important! This is what works for me: For the first date, I go classy, with a dress like a turquoise sleevless dress, just above the knee length, but form fitting. For the later dates, I pick sexier, shorter dresses that show my legs. And throughout the nights, I will cross and uncross my legs a lot to get his attention. I also like to wear heels, the higher, the better. Have fun!
tonyp56 Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Yes as a man I notice, often times, women who dress trashy I am turned away from, because that is simply not what I am looking for (one night stands, dead end relationships etc...) But you have to define "trashy" here. Sorry everyone is different, just because a woman dresses sexy or showing skin or whatever doesn't say "trashy" to me. However, REALLY high heals or those boots that go up to your knees, dresses/skirts that are really short, shirts/tops that are shreaded with holes etc in them and bra straps falling out of the top. However, even this don't mean trashy 100% of the time other factors come into play that would make women wearing stuff like this not trashy and wearing different trashy.
