I really hope you are responding to the select few males present in this thread that could fall in to this category rather than lumping all of them together. If that indeed is your point I would hope you would clarify it and/or be more conscious of your sweeping generalizations in the future. I am not trying to be offensive, rather just trying to understand your statement.Well the boys have spoken.
Sorry ladies, looks like burkas for you.
Is intelligence falling backwards that fast?
If you are responding to those men that use catcalls, make inappropriate gestures, create unwanted/unwarranted bodily contact, etc. then we are in agreement. A persons clothing, regardless of their gender, is not an invitation to any of the previously mentioned actions.
My take, as a male in his mid-late 20's, is that generally speaking I prefer a woman that dresses not necessarily conservatively, but more conservative/classy than low ride jeans/bare midriffs, etc. There is a line between low-slung, underwear-exposing jeans and burkas, and this is not a fine line in any way, except, it seems, in the minds of designers and certain merchants.
I started reading this thread just to see the opinions of other women in regards to clothing, and yet I am now reading seemingly OT religious slander. Why am I not surprised?A quote comes to mind, (might of read it here sometime in the past)
"One of my main problems with organized religion is the phallocentrism and hypocritical nature of the dogma.
The Bible was written by men, for men, to suit their purposes."
Sigh.
