What is sexy and what is skanky/slutty/trashy?

[Anonymous]

How do you define sexy vs. trashy/slutty/skanky? Because clothes that I find skanky are apparently acceptable to most people today. So confused...

So please rate each of these outfits/styles, as sexy or skanky/trashy:

Ok it turned out to be more than a couple lol sorry... But thank you guys in advance for answering!

Last question: where do you draw the line?

[spsophie]

I actually thought all of those looked sexy or cute! But I'm pretty accepting of people and how they choose to dress. The only time I think revealing clothes don't look good is if they're bad quality or don't fit right. There are times when wearing some of those outfits might be a bad idea (very professional occasions, funerals, etc), but I wouldn't judge somebody for wearing any of those things because it doesn't really affect me. I think I'd probably wear a few of those outfits myself, although I wouldn't feel comfortable in all of them (like the black dress with rips down the side- it fits her body well, but I wouldn't be confident in it).

1) looks nice and not too slutty.
2) looks nice and not too slutty either.
3) a little slutty.
4) a little slutty also but definitely hot.
5) definitely sexy and maybe a little slutty
6) looks nice and not too slutty
7) looks nice
8) not too slutty. Looks nice.
9) not too slutty and looks okay.

I think numbers 4 and 5 are the sexiest outfits.

[Asker]

so none of them is slutty? as in "ew, have a little self-respect girl!"?

[Chris011]

5 is pretty slutty.

[Chris011]

and 3.

[Asker]

where do you draw the line?

[Chris011]

Number 5. If you go beyond that then it will be very slutty.

[Asker]

I mean, how much skin shown is slutty? How much is still acceptable?

[Chris011]

Just make sure the dress isn't short to the point where people can see your butt and that it's not too tight.

That largely depends on the context... 1 and 2 are fine for leisure time (of course never for work), 3 fits into the bedroom.

Sexy is anything she's doing for her man, the other words apply, when she presents herself to everybody as an easy-to-have piece of meat.

[Asker]

well yeah we're not talking about work attire here... lol they're all inappropriate work attire anyway.

[Asker]

I like your definitions :)

[Opinion Owner]

Well, I see enough examples on the street of how I never will raise my daughters...

[Asker]

I would not be happy if my daughter wears about 6 or 7 stuff out of this list.

[Opinion Owner]

Yeah, precisely my thought :D

[lordAlex818]

What qualifies as skanky is usually different for each guy. So what one guy finds sexy, another might find slutty. But the general rule is you can show off only one thing (boobs, legs, stomach) at a time. Most guys would find flaunting two or more of those a bit slutty.

As far as the outfits go, some of them are a bit risqué, but none of them are skanky or inappropriate.

[Asker]

funny you should say "show only one thing" on the first paragraph, but say that none of those clothes are slutty in the second. When most of those clothes that I posted show at least 2 "things" (legs and boobs)

[lordAlex818]

Well, party dresses are an exception to the rule. But I was kind of on edge about number 2 and especially number 4. Number two doesn't really show cleavage so it's okay, and number 4... well... as long as you don't wear it often, it should be fine. But it is borderline slutty.

[soe11]

To be honest nothing is slutty at all, it is people negative mindset.
But you wear accordingly depending on environment.
I respect every female, whatever and however they wear.
My girlfriend and her mom wear publicly revealing outfits and I enjoyed give positive comments and supportive.

[croxy]

A general rule is either boobs or legs, not both.

Not like I care, but most people do.

[Asker]

I agree with the general rule. But many people seem to not agree.

None looked slutty/trashy/skanky to me because those aren't looks but actions. All these women looked beautiful to me, rocking some fine clothing. (Especially that last one, she's stunning.)

[Asker]

So you'd be OK if your gf/wife wears all of these clothes when going out with her girlfriends (without you)? Because she will get male attention wearing some of the clothes here, doesn't matter how she acts.

[Opinion Owner]

She's my gf/wife, which means she's loyal, and that's all that's important to me. I'm a guy, and as a guy I know any woman looking like any of these women is going to get male attention even if she wears a parka and one of those hats off the set of the movie Fargo. If that's how she wants to dress, it's fine by me.

[Asker]

so you don't mind men ogling her?

[Opinion Owner]

They are going to regardless. She could be wearing whatever and it's going to happen. I can't stop them from doing it, and I'm not going to tell somebody I love how to live their lives simply because what some other guys might say/think/do. That's silly. If I love her, and I trust her, then that's that. She probably just wants to feel sexy/good looking, which I get sometimes women might get insecure or wonder if the rest of the world still sees them the same way as things change.

I don't tie her potential slight insecurity at times with her not being loyal anymore. She wants to go out and dress in a way that makes her feel like she's "still got it" and hey, if it makes her happy, boosts her self-esteem for a bit, and helps her feel better, why not?

[normalice]

none of them seem particularly slutty, but 3 and 8 look kind of trashy to me.

[Asker]

how is 3 trashy but 3 isn't? (not the girl, just the clothes lol)

[Asker]

and 8 is trashy? Where do you draw the line?

[normalice]

not trashy in a sexual sense - trashy as in the designs are horrible.

[normalice]

though 5 wouldn't be a first choice either.

[NoblesseOblige]

The ASOS one is the only one that's good. I don't really care about those labels. Just hot or not hot. ASOS is sorta hot. The rest are instantly forgettable.

[ledfoot64]

they all look nice and sexy but I think women look better naked

[Asker]

none of them slutty? Everything acceptable?

[ledfoot64]

that's what I said in different words

[Asker]

wow. so you'd be ok if your daughter goes out in those clothes?

[ledfoot64]

nothing is hanging and if she got flaunt it

[ledfoot64]

and yes she would go in something like that with no bra or panties on

[Asker]

you know the kind of guys she'd attract when wearing clothes like that? Do you want her to attract those kind of guys and be a sex object to men?

[ledfoot64]

yes but she would know how to handle them like a biker chick does

[decemberxblue]

I don't do labels, some guys prefer certain personalities. None of those are my preference..

[Annymous8]

1, 3, 6, 7, and 8 are sexy.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

All are fine except #3

[havok101]

i think they look great
