Well, there are a couple of generalities going on here. The women who complain about being objectified are not always the ones dressing in an objectifying manner. There are plenty of women perfectly happy when being sexual objects.

But it comes down to this - while we all dress to impress or entice others at times, a person should be able to look the way they like and not automatically open themselves up to judgment.

The sidewalk is not a red carpet on which women walk so that men can offer their unsolicited judgments. The local Starbucks where you wait in line is not intended by most women to be a pick-up spot based on their hair, clothes, etcetera. A stoplight does not indicate speed dating time for a woman.

Sometimes, a woman simply wants to dress in a way that makes her feel alluring and confident. She should have that freedom without worry of remarks, propositions, violations or anything else.

@Graylight spot on!
As i said before...even fat old frumps like me get that sort of attention from some men and i hardly invite it.
Graylight · 51-55, F
@RubySoo And you're not fat and frumpy.
RubySoo · 56-60, F

@BlueMetalChick Ask guys you know and get back to me. Lots of guys will agree. Show them my comment. Screen shot it and email it to them.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@ghostofapu Well, alright, if you insist. I have a feeling I can predict what each will say though.
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@BlueMetalChick They may be an exception to the rule. Try asking them and at least 2 other guys outside of that friend group.
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
I agree with you 100% some women are simply attention seekers they wear revealing/provoking clothes to catch attention in the hope of compliments and flirt but at the same time they wouldn't like to be called as sluts..double standards or what's the word, hypocrite.
There is a huge difference in dressing up sexy yet smart and outright sluttish like you described.
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@Donotfolowme Thank you for an insightful answer. I dont think we should call women sluts when they are being flirty and dressing sexy.
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
@ghostofapu who/what is a slut,it simply means someone who enjoys sex with diff partners whats wrong with that given today's World where everything is going.

Well actually what wrong is tho that these women don't wanna accept it. They don't wanna be called as 'inviting men'.
SW-User
@Donotfolowme 👍 A honest woman. Most that dress like that, know exactly what the hell they are doing and yet they lie to themselves and others about motivation. Unless they are so naïve and dumb they really don't know the nature of man.

For the record, I don't disrespect women, but I fo sho notice.

@ghostofapu LMAOOOOOO sounds like something an incel would say, reclaiming my time
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@SW-User Good I need to reclaim my time as well. Ive got way better things to do then waste it on a dumbass.
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
Tight pants are practical. I'd dare to say in most cases it has nothing to do with the desire to look sexy, it's to feel comfortable when it's cold.
What kind of woman wears shirts that expose her nipples in public? Most don't. And if you have issues with it in homely environment then the problem is in you not in the woman. Nipples are a completely natural, normal part of a woman's body. Not extensions like push-up bras that try to draw attention. If they make you see women as objects then the problem is in you, not the women.
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@CrazyMusicLover I dont have an issue with women dressing sexy. Just an issue with women dressing sexy then getting man when guys stare.

Also tight pants are not practical. I never would wear tight clothes. I wear baggy clothes because when I want to jump a fence to take a short cut I dont want to run the risk of my pants tearing. When I bend over I dont want my ass to show.
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
@ghostofapu
Tight pants or leggings are practical. They don't let the cold air between the fabric and your body. If you don't live in a cold climate you might have no idea. Also they are not supposed to tear when you bend or crouch since they should be made of elastic material.
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@CrazyMusicLover I live in a hot climate and I know short shorts would get your legs burnt when you sit down anywhere outside
PaleandPolluted · 36-40, F
Id only complain if i got attention from the wrong people.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@PaleandPolluted True, you're right about that.
iamelijah · 26-30, M
@PaleandPolluted That mostly ended up wrong person. Or persons.

Like you want attract your crush, but other male come to you.
PaleandPolluted · 36-40, F
@iamelijah actually i wouldnt be attracted to someone who likes me dressed like that. It's just mildly fun to see who looks.
RubySoo · 56-60, F
Everyone, man or woman should be able to dress how they like without others objectifying them. If a womn choises not to wear a bra for instance under a tight dress.... it doesnt automatically follow she wants men to slobber ather has she walks down the street. She may just not find bras comfortable.

But....i am a believer in dressing appropriately for the situation. I wouldnt wear a tight fitting low cut tiny dress and heels to do my weekly shop, or wear my gym gear at a restaurant. Some do....and its thats how they are comfortable thats up to them......some people really dont think fir a second that what they wearis anybodies business but their own.

Its a real shame though some people at the sight on a flash of thigh or cleavage turn into leering creeps who make others feel uncomfortable in their own skin.
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@ghostofapu its rude. Its natural for men to be rude??? Really?
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@RubySoo How is it rude? Admiring a women's beauty then looking away to prevent her discomfort? You boost her ego and avoid making her feel uncomfortable.
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@ghostofapu dont believe you 'boost her ego'.
What guys often fail to understand is a woman tends to dress for herself...how she feels good..not to please guys. Ive never 'felt good'being srared at by a man. Its un nerving and yes...rude.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
Well in the case of tight yoga pants it's mostly cos they wear them to do yoga, not to be stared at.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@ghostofapu Maybe the men I know are just really good at hiding it then.
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@BlueMetalChick When I mean notice or stare I literally mean turn your head away when you notice a woman is turning her attention to you. Its disrespectful to stare. It also depends on what you are wearing. If you have small breasts and wear sweaters you will get less looks for example.
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@ghostofapu i had exceptionally large breasts that i always kept covered. I hated that. They made mevery selfconsious and as a slim young woman with big boobs i wore oversized clothes to hide them. Still...men stared. Men commented...men tried to chat me up in the hope of getting a better look. I didnt flaunt them...they were there....obvious.....but i didnt invite any attention.
MaryJo1996 · 26-30, F
There's so much wrong with this post.

@Northwest Im not an incel
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@MaryJo1996 Why dont you explain what exactly is wrong with my post?
MaryJo1996 · 26-30, F
@ghostofapu Everything. Literally everything.

Look this seems an anti women post: not liking women makes u gay doesn't it?

@Alison How the fuck is this anti women? Its more like anti hypocritical women if anything.

I can’t speak for all women I will speak for myself , I’m confident in my body , So I show it off because It makes me feel good. I have my own style and most of my style is revealing ones because I like rave wear and cyberdog , that’s how most of my type of style clothes are made. I wear them if it’s really hot outside , no point covering up everything if I’m over heated. Sometimes I don’t even realise I’m showing much. I’m a pole dancer , I have to wear clothes that don’t cover me up so I can grip to it and yes to also attract people to watch my shows , I still require respect such as no touching me inappropriately. With the boots most of my boots are what you described, It’s just my style , I’ve always worn big boots , they just go with what I wear. I wear dresses often too and most dresses these days are made tight or to show boobs. And clothes aren’t consent. It works both ways , men dress up or show stuff too. We don’t go off like wild animals when we see them.
Not gonna lie, this is why we...

1) Are armed and/or
2) Have an armed companion (at least one)

For when things go wrong, as @PaleandPolluted mentioned.

Of course, it's better to be armed and not need to unsheathe your weapon/s, than it is to be in a situation where being armed would likely mean your survival, and not have any armaments.
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@Amyrakunejo So you shoot men who notice you are dressing sexy? Thats insane.
@ghostofapu First off, I mentioned when things go wrong, as in, very wrong.

Being catcalled is one thing, being chased and cornered is another. FUCK THAT.

And no, I don't shoot; my primary weapon is a nineteen inch single-edge silver-etched curved steel blade with a six inch wooden handle, a [i]sword[/i] ([i]katana[/i]). I have either a [i]parrying dagger[/i] and/or a [i]wakizashi[/i] as a secondary. I'm more than capable of slicing wrists just enough to disable any would-be assailant's use of their own weapons. My sword is also [b][i]capable of penetrating Kevlar armor[/i][/b].

@BobGrant45 not 'most'. Some.

@BobGrant45 im not seeking attention. Im voicing an opinion.. which im as much entitled to do as you are.
SatanBurger · 36-40, F
I think it's because there's a fantasy of objectification being romantic and sometimes it's the complete opposite. I'm not sure if women don't want to be objectified deep down, being objectified means being desired so I think that every woman wants that and I think men like being objectified by women.

But... in real life when objectification happens, sex is really bad because the man is focused on himself when sex actually happens. Kind of like the equivalent to the "you put your D in and thrust for a bit and that's it." You realize that the majority of women don't have orgasms right?

What I'm saying is, there's a right and wrong way to be objectified. I think deep down women want to be but the men who do that are simply bad fucks and out to use you, there's no intimacy there.

So women dress like that because they do want to be desired but I think there's another way to go about it.

And also some women want to be looked at but not touched, that's their business as well.
Graylight · 51-55, F
@SatanBurger Look at TV adbertozing. Look at magazines. Social media. Popular shows. Movies. Then tell us how young girls are conditioned to equate their bodies with anything but make approval.
SatanBurger · 36-40, F
@Graylight Of course.
iamelijah · 26-30, M
This is point I agree. They dress provocative and expect not to be seen. Not saying that they deserve it but when dress like that be prepared males are gonna watch.


They are hypocrite. If you like being flirted and sexy slut, you won't bothered when men cat calling you.
They just want attention.
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@iamelijah and many men stare at an ogle all women without any encouragement at all....
MaryJo1996 · 26-30, F
@iamelijah We dress how we want. The fact you see that as a problem says a lot about you and makes me worried for any woman you come in contact with.
beckyromero · 36-40, F
[quote]For the record I do not believe nor am I calling for women to not dress sexy or the way they want. Just frustrated with their reactions to men they come across when they dress that way.[/quote]

Then don't fucking look!

@beckyromero they cant help it apparently....hormones..

@BobGrant45 Just pointing out how stupid you are.
SammyJo · 51-55, F
I think we just want it both ways, to be honest. I dress sexy just because it's been ingrained into me for the last 40 or so years...and I'm happy with that..

I guess you can equate it to maths...you mention maths to someone and they'll say 'Oh, I hate division..' or 'I love subtraction'.....that is not, obviously, the be all and end all of mathematics yet people tend to point out the one thing...

Same with personalities.....We can dress sexy yet be intelligent....but people tend to find the one thing and stick to that...

*sigh* So just down to people really not thinking things through and properly explaining themselves...

My take on it all...

Northwest · M
So, what you're saying is that if you happen to be on vacation in Europe, Australia, Greece, Cyprus, New Zealand, Hidden Lake (Whistler, Canada), anywhere along the California Coast, between Montara Beach and Carmel, the European section of the swimming pool of any Las Vegas hotel, you think it's OK to ogle women? and this is what they really want you to do?
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@Northwest thats how it sounds isnt it? Women dress excusively to titilate men.....and apparently because of their hormones they cant help but look and stare! And....its ok!
Many women have felt they were not being respected, whatever they were wearing. I've noticed that the more you create gender ghettoes in a social group, the less respectful men will be.
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@EarthlingWise So basically any gathering of men?
@ghostofapu It becomes a ghetto when men stop interacting with women. Only see women as preys.
ghostofapu · 26-30, M
@EarthlingWise Men who see women as "prey" interact with women all the time. Its called the club and bar scene and social media.
RubySoo · 56-60, F
Another point...as its proven here time and time again....some men objectify all women...even old, chubby dumpy ones like me that keeps herself covered over.....so ...is that my fault? Is that me in the wrong....or is it just true sone guys cannot help themselves at all.....
Yup....
smiler2012 · 56-60
ghostofapu well i am sorry to say men will be men and if they dress provocatively what do they expect long as it remains as looks nothing more that is
Cantsayno · 56-60, M
I agree with you to a point. It's ok to look. But you shouldn't be staring at them for a long time.
