Is it offensive for an older man to tell a female what to wear, especially if it is skimpy (not dating and is not family)?

I have learned from many years of experience that if an old man (who is not your family) tells you what to wear, there is a good chance he is turned on by or attracted to you. They just tell you to stop wearing skimpy clothes because it makes it easier for them to control their impulses.

If it's truly an "old" man... meaning someone who is a likely grandfather or elderly-- 70s on up... what impulses does he have trouble controlling at that age? I think some people use their age to say whatever pops into the few brain cells they have left. And someone who grew up in the 1940s and 50s might have lingering sexist proclivities: He's a man and he has the right to tell ANY woman what to wear because he KNOWS better. Especially if they're far younger than he is. It's a big SIGH...

@Screenwriter

you may assume old senior citizens do not have a sex drive but they do. I have been checked out by old senior citizen men while wearing a slinky spaghetti strap dress

Who is this guy to her? Some people love to give their opinion, wanted or not lol. But "is it offensive?" - you'd have to ask HER, is she offended? Everyone's different, and there's no "should feel", it's how DO you feel? If she's offended, then yes, if not, then no lol. But if she realizes it's his opinion, wanted or not, and takes it as that, then he's just rude.

So you are saying it’s okay for a 22 yr old guy to tell you what to wear?

🤦🤦

[Screenwriter]

Certainly is. Why not tell HIM what you think HE should wear. Turn those tables. See how HE reacts.

Really... Like he's your dad and you're his 5 year old.. Except he wants you to dress like a slut. Call him on it. ALL of it.

A man has no business telling any woman what to wear

[jshm2]

Depends, if it's uniform, then she needs to find a better place to work, or take it to HR.

[hayley2008]

I mean he can try. It won't be anywhere near as offensive as my reply to him.

[BarryLiverstone]

Yes if like he’s in his 40s and has never even met her that’s so bad!

[BarryLiverstone]

Did this happen to you?

[Sharonyang5388]

Oh yeah, I posted a rate me post and this 42 year old man tried to tell me to wear a bra and thongs or else there would be nothing to look at. He’s still trying to defend himself and act like a tough dude after I told him off 😂

[BarryLiverstone]

Smh ya I saw on your other question. He is being rude in my opinion. Glad you are standing up for you self

[Sharonyang5388]

thanks 😊

[BarryLiverstone]

You are welcome

[MikeInHawaii]

Telling her to wear something skimpy is a little creepy.

[Anonymous]

Yes, it is none of his business what we wear. 😏

[Anonymous]

They only tell us that to protect us because they know how men think

[maximumpower]

What?
Have you bothered to read what you posted?

[Anonymous]

No.

Since women can’t act like adults, men need to put them in line.

[Anonymous]

Maybe if he's her father and she's under 18. Otherwise no.

Or her boss.

[JDBSLAOQ]

generally offensive to tell anyone what to wear

[babyyyxxx]

[ArtemisSilver]

I'm told we should respect our elders 😸

[EnglishEuropean]

[mrlongdongsiilver]

[Hellraiser1984]
