Why do women tend to like wearing tighter fitting clothing than men?

[mrf284212]

I just always found it curious how its more socially acceptable for women to wear tighter clothes in public than men. Especially since in the past women weren't allowed to show any part of their body in public.

I'm also thinking about the jeans topic where its hard for women to find jeans that fit right. (Perhaps thats why leggings gained popularity.) If men wore just as tight of jeans would they have just as much trouble? If women wore looser jeans would they fit better?

Also, you know how when men dress in women's clothes for comedy skits. And the clothing is way too small for them, which is part of the joke. I'm just curious if it would look as unusual if the women's clothes on men fit better. Like they took a typically female attire and made the measurements for a certain male's body.

One more thing, its always men thinking women dress and act in ways to turn guys on. But the stereotype is men always think about sex and don't necessarily need the women to do anything to turn them on. So if men are the ones that are trying to have sex, it should be them dressing and acting in ways to turn women on. Men should be trying to get women to come to them not men going to women. I guess its kind of going that way with men starting to wear tighter fitting clothing.

I don't mean any of this to insult or criticize. I'm just curious. I know there's flaws in some of my logic so while you answer the questions if you see the flaws let me know.

Not sure if this is where I put this to reply to all of you. Thanks for the answers. Its interesting how tighter clothes change our idea of male and female though. I'm mostly curious why it happened the way it happened.

I kind of like the constricting feeling of tighter clothing. I don't really wear tight clothes. I don't really go clothes shopping a lot. I kind of just like the feeling.

[Izzy2102]

I would say because me like and accept it. Men do not get significantly more attractive by wearing tight clothes. We just aren't that visual. If you buy those bodycocon dresses the headline usually always goes like "sexy, slimming, tight blue dress". it's supposed to turn men on.

Like take her for example. I'm sure most men would find that she looks significantly more sexually attractive in the second picture

And the same goes for average girls. If they have a somewhat decent body it's attractive if they show it. The same is not true for men. or only for really hot men, for guys with an average body, they look significantly better in clothes that flatter the male figure (i.e a suit)

The second thing is that clothes say something about us. The suit is the traditional symbol of the working class, these days has become more of a sign of wealth, but I'm sure 300 years ago men wearing very tight pants would have been most attractive because that's how the ruling class dressed. The t-shirt was army underwear and then became a symbol of america and freedom from there. For women, well these days it seems like being attractive is the major thing in landing a good partner, not status or something like that so it's logical for women to flaunt that

In the past it was different. most people liked to marry within their class, so expensive dresses for women also indicated their fathers or husbands wealth.
And as for why it more covered up. Well precisely because people assumed everything else would turn on men. And in times where premarital or adultery was the worst

[Izzy2102]

crime a woman could commit, rape laws were so so, no birth or STD control and people assumed men couldn't control their urges, most people thought it was a good idea to cover their daughters up.
And religion also played a factor. With religion getting less important, a lot of that did change.

But wow, first time I ever ran out of characters

[Metal189]

chuck!!!

[Metal189]

now if you could just post a pic of leighton and blake, lol

[Izzy2102]

you're a gossip girl fan?

[mrf284212]

I'm not really sure I see what you mean by the 2nd picture is more attractive other than it shows her whole body. Which would be a good thing right, to be attracted to the whole body and not just part of the body?

I didn't know suits flatter the male figure. So are women attracted to it because it flatters or because it represents wealth, or both?

I just don't get why clothing would need to be designed to turn men on. Men are already stereotyped to think about sex all the time and turned on by women by them just walking out the door. So why would men need more of a reason to be turned on? They already want it. Shouldn't it be the opposite. Men should be doing things to turn women on. Assuming sex is the reason we wear certain clothes.

I'm always running out of characters lol. I'm gad a could have a question that let you join my club.

[Izzy2102]

The second link would be the photo set showing holliday grainger not in her Borgias costume?
Or the second picture of ed westwick? I'm not sure what you mean either way. Both links of her include full body shots and both links of him are cut off at the legs?

Suits DO flatter men. They're designed to.
And it's both, that was my point. Status and a better figure.

Well ultimately though, clothes that show pretty much no body shape, like the very first link, can only be so attractive. The same person in a different outfit will be more arousing and attention catching. That was point with the first two links.
Ultimately I think it is about getting a guys attention. Once upon a time, wearing dresses that don't cover your knees was daring and girls that did caught a lot of attention from guys. So more girls did and someday that was the new normal. So skirts got shorter again...
Women don't traditionally do the approaching, men do. So we need to catch a guys attention

[Izzy2102]

first, before he can approach us. And if you're covered head to toe while other girls show their whole body, you're gonna have a harder time at that.

As I said women aren't visual. Sure a well formed male body is hot, but that alone won't do it, let alone for an average body. It's not so much about looks as it is for men.
https://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/736x/f5/72/66/f572666d93d61bdc206027a37cd6beea.jpg

I'm sure most girls will agree that a rugged guy holding a baby is sexy, not because babies are attractive, but because of what it stands for

[mrf284212]

Sorry I didn't realize there was links that showed other pictures. And yeah I guess the 2nd ones of both I would find more attractive.

Aren't other clothes designed to flatter mens figure. I would say all clothes in general are designed to flatter any figure. Its just a matter how picking the right size to flatter it best. Not just dresses flatter women. Pretty much anything does including that picture of her in the older style dress. I mean if you like the girl I think she would be just as attractive in both dresses. I might be turned on differently from both dresses, but maybe attractiveness and turned on should be in different categories.

How about prom dresses. They tend to be more puffy (I don't know much about them, so I could be completely wrong). Why not wear tighter to the prom?

[mrf284212]

But its traditional for men to do the approaching because they typically are already turned on or attracted to you. You don't need to catch a guys attention, you already have it. Unless it would be a competition to get guys attention. Then you would need to do something.

But why can't the guy be the one trying to get the girls attention? How long do we have to wait til thats the tradition/stereotype?

[mrf284212]

But what about an unrugged guy holding a baby? And just because he is holding a baby doesn't mean he helps out in caring for the baby. Its just an appearance. Assuming thats what your saying it stands for.

I"m not sure I understand the women aren't visual thing. its still an appearance of the guy holding the baby. A women having large breasts and a man holding a baby, I'm not sure I see the difference.

[mrf284212]

Also is it more important to attract men by the way you dress or by your job, activities, hobbies. If you think men only want you for sex then most likely thats the only men you will attract.

[Metal189]

yeah, i loved it. i wish it was still on

[Izzy2102]

Yes they are other clothes that flatter your figure, suits was just an example and No not all clothes are designed to flatter your figure. Case in point t shirts. They were underwear. Designed with for no other purpose but protecting your uniform from sweat. If you have a good body, they will look good on you anyways, if you don't they won't. Another example, sweatpants or hoodies. They look terrible on most men. Hoodies are designed after monks gowns, to hide your body. Sweatpants are obviously workout clothes, you shouldn't go out like that

Yes prom dresses are puffy because it's one of those days where every girl wants to feel like a princess. And even that trend is slowly vanishing, a lot of girls choose slimmer dresses these days

Yes if they approach you they are attracted to you, the point is that you may not get noticed. It's instinct for men to look a boobs, waist and butt. So if most girls are having that hanging out and a few others

[Izzy2102]

rather hide it, they won't get much attention, because the others overshadow them.

Women are by far pickier when it comes to sex, so once the initial standing out in a crowd thing is past, guys are competing for a girls attentions. But you need to get past that

Well it's a fantasy. As the picture said "porn" it's always a good looking guy and just like p*rn of course it's not always real. It's the fantasy behind it. If you see a guy in a suit it doesn't mean he's wealthy or smart, yet a lot of people will make that assumption. it's a fantasy

No it's not as visual. My point was, even if you're hot, that alone won't do it. Which is different for men. pictures of beautiful half naked women, are very rarely made doing something non sexual, because for men just her body is enough. For women that's different

And lastly. yes ideally a guy will like us for our brains and personality, unfortunately that's not reality. For most guys that's a

[Izzy2102]

bonus requirement but looks come first. You could be smart like Albert Einstein and act like Mother Theresa, if you're ugly you won't even get asked out for guys to find out about that. That's why so many women dress that way. First it's looks that will get a guys attention. I didn't think that was even controversial?

[mrf284212]

Just because t-shirts or other clothes were initially designed for a purpose other than to make you look good, doesn't mean they aren't designed to make you look good now.

Underwear isn't meant to be seen by the public yet in advertisements they are modeled by attractive people. Why do they need to advertise underwear at all, we all wear it. They market it as not only as comfortable on the skin but makes you look good too. No one buys underwear to make them look bad. Hardly anyone sees us in it yet we are convinced if we look bad in it, we are ugly/fat. This is to ourselves not others

Under Armour is also designed to keep sweat off the skin and outer layers, keep you cool, etc. But they know people still want to look good wearing it and a selling point is it makes you look better than the competition

Working out could still be considered a public thing and therefore something you go out in. And i'm sure the design and marketing teams aren't trying to make people look bad.

[mrf284212]

Same with hoodies, people can still look good in them and turn people on.

So is flatter your figure and looking good 2 different things? Is the figure the goal or looking good? Or is turning people on? To me the looking good part is what attracts. Just because you figure is being shown does not mean its attractive. So the design has to make a person look good regardless of their figure.

The puffy princess look. Not showing figure but could still look good. Someone could be just as turned on by that. They may call the princess beautiful as opposed to hot in the slimmer dresses. Just because the word beautiful is used doesn't mean their not turned on.

Maybe I'm confused about flatter the figure though. Earlier you said "And the same goes for average girls. If they have a somewhat decent body it's attractive if they show it. The same is not true for men. or only for really hot men, for guys with an average body, they look significantly better in clothes that flatter the male

[mrf284212]

igure (i.e a suit)". Is flatter the figure different than showing off the body. If showing off the body is showing skin then its not really what I mean when I ask about tight clothing. I mean the compression of the figure not the figure itself. And we may not actually be attracted to the figure as much as the compression of the figure.

I don't know if I'm completely on board with "it's instinct for men to look at boobs, waist and butt". I would say its instinct to reproduce. We have pleasure from it so we continue to do it. Basically an incentive. We have used that incentive to heighten the pleasure and reduce the purpose. Yes certain parts of the body heighten the desire for wanting pleasure, but I would say thats all built into reproduction.

I have a question about the women being pickier about sex. I"m not saying its untrue but if men aren't picky and women are, who are the men having sex with. Are multiple men have sex with the few women that aren't as picky.

[mrf284212]

I don't know the statistics on amount of sex men and women have but I don't know I guess I would need more info on that topic.

If the good looking guy wasn't wear a shirt or pants, just very well fitted underwear while feeding the baby its bottle in his arms; would that hurt or help the fantasy.

I'm not sure if I got off topic anywhere there but I'll end where you ended. You said its the looks that get the guys attention. That may be true, but my question is why do women feel they need to get men's attention. Advertisement wise yes I understand that but walking down the street, shopping, etc; why is it necessary?

When a women leaves her house is her goal to attract/meet someone or do whatever it is they planned to do that day. Same question for men; what is it we do when we are in public. Yes humans are animals in that we have a kind of mating ritual and reproduction is the most important thing in the world.

[mrf284212]

But are we still that animalistic that getting the attention of a mate is the first thing to go for.

I mean I dont really socialize or go out or whatever so I dont know what its like in the typical day of an average person. But I watch movies, tv shows, etc; and what i see there is, its all about sex appeal. I see very stereotypical men and women. I assume, yes people are like that sometimes, but most of their life is not like that. Its filled with things other than sex, other than looks, other than just getting someones attention. But like I said I don't know what goes on in the world or other people's minds. I can barely understand my own.

[mrf284212]

I think I found a new question in all this though. Which is funny because I found this question from answering someone else's question. I hope I get to read more of your thoughts. And sorry if I went off topic at all or didn't reply to to one of your arguments. And for writing to much. And if you don't mind me asking, what did you love and wish was still on? I may have missed some of what I wrote. I copy/pasted it all, So sorry if something doesn't make sense.

[Izzy2102]

As I said, a few times now. You can look in good in every kind of clothes, if you have a great body. If you have an average body what you wear makes a great impact.
And no they are still not made to flatter your figure. At least not in men's clothing, women's clothing is a bit different. They use hot people to advertise it because they will make you think you will look as good as them. You won't. If you don't have a perfect body, t shirt and sweatpants are a terrible choice.
Suits for men are different. They underline the V shape of your body. If you don't want to see that some clothes look better on people than others, I don't know what else to say to that. But it's a fact and it's quite common sense too. Look around when you go out. Ask any designer, magazine editor, model or anyone fashion savy, they will all tell you same thing

I'll comment on the rest later

[mrf284212]

Ok the socially accepted great body at this point in time is capable of looking good in anything. I don't disagree with that. If you can find where I typed something that said I did disagree with that, please quote me so I can see it and comment on it.

I also agree a more common looking body can look better depending on their clothing. But I guess where I disagree is its not what they wear but how they wear it. Things like how well their clothes fit and I guess a certain style and color. Maybe certain body types look better with tighter clothes, maybe some with looser. I really don't know what fit, style, color, etc goes with a certain body type.

I'm not sure why you consider what you say as fact/common sense. Anything in the fashion industry or entertainment industry are based on opinion not fact. I'm sure there are lots of people that don't think men look good/better in a suit. Just because majority of people think they do does not make it a fact.

[mrf284212]

But just because there is a minority doesn't make it an opinion either. Things are default as an opinion. Nothing starts as a fact; they have to be proven to become a fact. But majority or looking around how people dress and judging how good they look isn't a very solid argument to claim it as a fact.

Talking to a designer, magazine editor, model, or anyone fashion savy doesn't necessarily prove a point either though. What reason would anyone of them have against sweat pants. Well I guess for one they are not a fashion statement. Number 2, people in the fashion industry or people interested in it take pride in wearing things that are unique and seeing people wear something unique. If a lot of people are wearing sweat pants, its not very eye catching, thus not fashionable. And were talking about average people not celebrities. Not that there's a difference, but thats a topic for another day. Number 3, they want to sell people on their industry.

[mrf284212]

The more people that like their industry, participate in it, talk about it, etc; the more money they make. We all want to sell people on our interests. Not that I'm saying the fashion experts are trying to deceive anyone, they just think people look better in certain, fit, style, and color of clothing. How do they prove that something looks better. Because looking better/good/different are all matters of opinion.

Common sense, I'm not really sure what to say about that. People throw that around so much that it almost loses all meaning. A lot of times when people use it they say, "I thought it was common sense", or "Isn't it common sense", or "it's common sense", If the words common sense have to be used to describe something that you know and the person your talking doesn't know, then it couldn't be common sense. No one wold have to use the words common sense if what was being talked about was common sense. Sorry if that was confusing.

[mrf284212]

Are you saying t shirts worn by the average person cannot make that person look good? T shirts are probably one of the most common articles of clothing; so that would mean that most the people that wear them look bad. And since most people wear them, because thats what the average person is majority, then there are a lot of bad looking people in the world.

[mrf284212]

But the question I want answered, because this question seems to be a root in our disagreement, is:

If an average person buys a t shirt a size smaller or bigger could they look better wearing it?

I guess the 2nd question is: What do you mean by flatter your figure?

The 3rd question is: Do you think designers of normal, average, everyday clothes design those clothes to make a person look bad?

Yes they use attractive people to sell an illusion. But that doesn't mean that average people don't look better wearing them. They may not look as good as advertised, but I assume they don't design things to make me feel bad about how I look. To have a successful business you need to make people happy not sad.

[Izzy2102]

Of course if you choose a suit that's 2 sizes two small you'll look ridiculous as well, but it principle still stands it will look better than if you choose a t shirt 2 sizes too small.

Fashion has trends yes, but it also as constants. For women there mostly some kind of waist cinching effect (corsets, belts, hoop skirts...), for men clothes that make your upper body look wider.
Because well known fact of increasing a persons attractiveness. They flatter your figure (Women hourglass, Men V shape) And a lot of clothes men wear today do none of that. Suits are one of the few exception

Yes I'm saying the average man doesn't look good in a t shirts. And they don't look better if they choose it too big or too small, they'd look more stupid. Why would they?

T-shirts are now, but they really weren't until the late 60s. They were underwear in the army but because it was so hot in vietnam and other places they did work, they took off their uniform and

[Izzy2102]

only worked in underwear when they had to do physical labor. And when they got home a lot of them kept doing it, hence making it a trend. It remained underwear though

Well t shirts aren't exactly items you'll find in high end stores. Designers don't try to make people ugly, but big clothing stores need to sell their stuff, when t shirts became a trend they sold them to make money. When baggy pants became a trend, they also sold them to make money. They're also cheap to produce, maximizing the opportunities for making profit, even though neither is a good choice for the average person, that's not their problem.
Do t shirts make you feel bad? I'm assuming not because they've been advertised to make you feel good. It doesn't mean you look good.

I think in particular tend to be overconfident when it comes to their bodies, so making them feel bad about it a bit tougher. T shirts by far aren't as common in women's clothing, because they also don't do much for women's bodies.

[mrf284212]

I meant the buy sizes smaller or bigger more as, some people don't buy the size that best fits them. Suits generally are fitted for the person therefore fits better. If all clothes were fitted in ways that made an individual look the best then other clothes could look just as good. You can't blame an article of clothing if someone decides to buy the wrong size. By the way, when I say look the best, I mean as an opinion. How good someone looks, just like how good a movie is, is just an opinion not fact. It could be the best reviewed movie ever but it will still be nothing more than an opinion.

I'm not really talking about high end fashion either. I'm talking about clothing in general. So how do advertisements make people feel good? What ways can something make someone feel good?

[mrf284212]

I find it funny how you say women are less visual, when everything you say is about how a person looks. And most people in the fashion industry are women and fashion is all about how you look. They seem pretty visual to me.

[Izzy2102]

I was trying to post an answer but I always get an error message

[Izzy2102]

Yes we're talking about how a person looks. It's not the only thing that will make you attractive, but we're not talking about the other parts right now.

Axe for example has made some really successful commercials, the idea behind them is that if you use their products, girls can't resist you.
Kinda the same thing here (gets error message) David Beckham modeling men's underwear (For Armani?) the idea behind those is that by wearing their underwear you're a bit more like David Beckham. You'll be cooler, more attractive and get prettier women. When in fact none of that is true. In fact if you're a bit chubby or equally too thin to fill them out, you really shouldn't wear those boxer briefs. They only look good on good bodies

I'm not so sure suits usually are fitted these days. if you have money, sure but I think most people just buy their suits from stores without any fitting. I know I bought one with my

[Izzy2102]

candyandcouture.files.wordpress.com/.../...on2.jpg

and here is the campaign

[Izzy2102]

I'm also talking about clothing in general. I don't see what that has to do with everything. I don't think we're getting anywhere. So just to be clear, what I'm saying is

1) attractive people look good in everything, but average one don't
2) clothes designed to underline the typical male figure, such as suits, make average men more attractive looking because a) they do underline your figure and b) they have become a symbol of wealth and status
3) since women aren't as easily visually attracted to men, they must combine that with something else, point in question here, clothes and what they say about someone
4) a lot of clothes that men wear today look terrible on average bodies, greatly because they were never designed to do that, such as T-shirts, sweatpants or baggy jeans

[mrf284212]

I don't think it so much what type of clothes someone wears but how they wear it and how their personal hygiene complements it. Not every person will be attracted to every body to clothing ratio. Some people may be attracted to the less typically attractive body type.

Are you saying all men care about is how attractive a woman is? I think men care just as much about what certain clothes represent as women. Men use the words slut, tomboy, etc. as much as women. If its all first reaction stuff then its completely based on how they look and what they think it says about them.

So I guess what I think your saying is men are attracted to bodies and women to clothes. They are both visual it just depends on what they are looking at. I think men are just as attracted to women's clothes and what they say about that woman though. Yes they are also attracted to bodies. I have no clue if women are attracted to men's bodies since I am not a woman.

[mrf284212]

I'll admit I don't know what certain clothes are designed for. I assume they are designed to look the way the buyer wants to look. And I assume most people want to look good, whatever that means to them.

Also what I'm saying is, I can't see the difference between a t-shirt and a button down shirt. They look the same to me. I don't care what type of body is in it. It's kind of like a bikini and underwear. They look the same to me but some women may have different forms of embarrassment.

[scorpseason93]

Simply because its typically more flattering..

Men did dress with tight trousers before in colonial times while women covered up more and wore clothes to their ankles.. oh how times have changed! Actually, if you look at middle school fashion its pretty common to see boys wearing skinny jeans which shows tighter clothes are possibly becoming popular and everyone knows that one gym guy who wears too tight of a shirt..

Generally though this is done because its more common - women dress tighter because baggy clothes are looked at as being worn only by tomboys or overweight people and men dress how they do because tight clothes are thought as feminine.

[mrf284212]

Sorry to just comment on 1 of you but it only let me update twice in one week lol and I had another one.

Also the tighter the clothing we wear the less it feels like were wearing anything maybe. Maybe we all want to be naked and maybe thats our future. We were naked before and perhaps naked again.

[mrf284212]

Yeah its interesting how men used to dress. Because they used to wear more heel like shoes too. I just wonder why the fashion changed for men and why tight clothes are seen as feminine.

[AnonmyousChick]

Women wear tight clothes to flaunt their curves and such. But me I don't mind loose clothing sometimes. I don't dress to impress because I so moly already have a bf of 4 years, so why should I dress all hot just to a trip to walmart. I sometimes go out in my sport corning like soccer pants and a hoodie. Comfortable clothing. No need to impress the world 24/7.

[AnonmyousChick]

Not sure why 'so moly' was in that lol sounds weird though..

[mrf284212]

Yeah I'm not really sure I know what "so moly" means lol, but it does sound weird. So loose clothes can be comfortable, can tight clothes be comfortable too? Some times I think soccer pants and a hoodie are just as attractive as if not more so than tighter clothes.

Why do you think you need to flaunt your curves? Men tend to look at women whether they are flaunting anything or not. Do you think men should try flaunting their bodies more?

Not sure if any of that sounded rude, sorry if it does. I don't mean it that way though.

[AnonmyousChick]

I feel like most men would be more attracted to women who wear tight clothing and are more of girly girl type. Rather than being attracted to someone wearing baggy pants, sweats, or basketball shorts. I don't get it but if I were a guy I'd lean more towards a girl who doesn't have to try to be beautiful, someone who enjoys wearing sweatpants and a hoodie and doesn't wear much makeup. That's my type of girl lol.

[mrf284212]

First I want to say I don't really know much about what kind of women men are attracted to. I don't really socialize a lot. So anything I say might be completely wrong. I mostly try to think of the difference between what the entertainment industry says men are attracted to and what men are really attracted to.

But I think what men are attracted to and what men approach are 2 different things. I'm not talking about drunk men or bar/club environments. I guess I'm more curious what kind of look do men approach and what kind of look do women approach. A person may be wearing something really tight, revealing, etc; and we may talk about wanting to have sex with that person and make rude comments to them, but how often does that person get approached. Or approached in a more than objectified manner.

By the way my type of girl is probably the same as your type of girl lol. Not that I'm basing my type of girl on the way she looks lol.

[Metal189]

theyre made like that. typically, you dont see a lot of womens clothes looking like mens, where they're baggy or whatever. i think they make them like that because they know men like it

[mrf284212]

But if a guy bought a something thats baggy in a smaller size then they wouldn't be as baggy. Maybe they aren't designed that way its just men buy clothes that don't fit them.

[Metal189]

not necessarily. many do, but not all

[biggie90]

Guys do it too. If you got guns show em off.

https://scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xaf1/t1.0-9/1012994_10200844620351548_1779809105_n.jpg

Not me but you get the idea.

[mrf284212]

Yeah I know men do it too. It just seems like people think only women think about the way they look.

[Anonymous]

Most girls look attractive as they are, but guys usually need to bulk up or actually work out before their body looks good. So generally, guys tend not to flaunt their figure.

Not to mention that guys don't like to walk daintily and be constraint by tight-fitting clothing. And then there's also a particular gender stereotype for men who wear tight-fitting clothing.

[biggie90]

That's true but there isn't much difference between an average female and average male that don't workout.

[mrf284212]

Men may need to bulk up to look good but women need to tone down. Just generalizing though. So they both need working out just as much.

And you say women are attractive just the way they are. Perhaps thats just what your attracted to. A women may say men are attractive just they way they are but women need to tone their bodies and actually work out to get their bodies to look good and squeeze it all together to make it even more toned. But she's just attracted to men. And more judgmental on other women to look as good as them, just like a man might be more judgmental on another man to look just as good as them so they need to bulk up.

That's true me personally I'm more attracted to girls that are fit and workout they have better bodies than average girls by far.

Yeah I agree with you biggie90. And I would say we approach the average more often and more consistently attracted to the average. But the above and below average is what catches our attention more. Things we like and don't like as opposed to things we are content with. Its kind of like the idea that some people think they have good/bad luck.

Thanks I like your view.

A lot of women would wear looser clothes if it wasn't considered unattractive.

On the flip side, guys are starting to pay attention to their looks more than ever, like you said. Now that women can get jobs, she wants a partner for sexual attraction as much as security.

Its interesting to me that at this point in time tighter clothes is more attractive. I wonder what the future will be.

Probably because it shows their figure more. The bigger, the more loose fitting clothes, the more they sink in their clothes and get lost into the abyss. Plus, loose fitting clothes that hang off the body sometimes might make us feel fat.

[mrf284212]

Why do you think we always feel like were fat. I know its more of a women stereotype but I think men think it know too.

Its interesting to me that they say America is fatter than ever (maybe they say about the world too idk) yet we always feel fat based on the clothes we wear more so than the way we look. We think of ourselves as fat as a bad thing but I wonder if we really care if we are fat at all.

To attract man, bro. And to look better than other women.

A woman's body is their currency, sad but true.

At least if you are a total superficial asshole.

[zombiebabe]

[mrf284212]

Do tight clothes flatter men's assets?

[Metal189]

[zombiebabe]

through exercise

[mrf284212]

Women exercise too.

[Opinion Owner]

[mrf284212]

Why do you think exercise isn't working for women but it works for men?
