If a girl is always wearing midriff shirts and really short shorts, are they trying to get attention?

[Anonymous]

Just know a girl like that and she’s always wearing cleavage. Not that I’m conservative or anything but it’s a bit much. She would wear XS sized shorts although she is actually an M. It looks rather cheap in my opinion. Like I wear short shorts too but I always wear my size. People say it’s easier for her to get guys than me for doing that? Lol do I have to resort to this to be attractive? I don’t understand.

[jsincal]

Don't be subjected to stereotypes or labels. Most are created by men. Women that are victims of these stereotypes pass them down through generations.

Good news, is we live in a modern era where women have their own independent opinions. People will think what they want to think. You don't need others to give you approval. If you do, you'll never be good enough.

Where you will fail is needing to dress a certain way to get guys. A guy should not only want you in short skirts, but also sweat pants as well. Hell, I dated a girl who I first met on the street in sweat pants.

But the idea is wear whatever you want for you. NEVER wear it for other people especially to get men.

[cth96190]

Of course she wants male attention.
It is a primal mating instinct.
The female is displaying her physical asssets, her genetic fitness/desirability as a potential mate.
That is why men look, although most of them do not understand that what we see as beauty is actually external evidence of reproductive fitness.
So, when a female dresses in that way I will look and appreciate her beauty and the sexual display.
If, however, she has a body that should not be exposed in that way it is a boner killer. That is because the female has displayed her lack of reproductive fitness.

[_food_lover234]

well if you wanna get a guy to hook up with you, sure wear what she wears. but honestly she's selling herself short, if she's gotta wear shorts that are to small so guys can see her and notice her then :/ like wouldn't you much rather be known for more than just and ass and tits? . i mean I'm not super conservative, i like to show some skin but not have it all out, you gotta you know give them something to imagine. trust me, speaking from experience, you want a guy to like you- be confident. i know its clichet but literally so many guys fall for confident girls. don't sell yourself short

[Asker]

Lol yeah appreciate that you are not turning this into a feminist argument jus because you are a girl. 🙂🙂 some people here arguing that I’m “ jealous” which is not true. Like I was honestly curious to know if I have to do this to get a guy’s attention because that’s sad tbh

[_food_lover234]

it honestly is sad, like that's what I've never understood is why sell yourself to a guy based on your body. there's so many great quality that everyone has. gurl your not jealous, your just curious. literally hate it when people think its bc your jealous. if you wanna know something , there's no harm in asking. I hope I helped <3

[nojokecarmichael]

No. I wear clothes that are revealing but because I like the way my body looks, the style of clothing and I'm not getting any younger... ask her why she wears clothing to small for her? That'll explain why xs is always sold out when I do online or in store shopping

[Massageman]

She's probably trying to get some thing.
She could always use an old pair of
jeans in her regular size and make a few minor alterations. (pic)

A few minor alterations - - - - -

[Thatsamazing]

That's an ass that needs to get fucked.

[Asker]

@Thatsamazing supports my argument that girls do it for the attention

[ReginaFilange]

Let's be honest. You're jealous because as you said "she's getting all the guys". It doesn't bother you because it "looks cheap". What she wants is her choice and no one else's. Regardless if it is for attention or not, she should NOT be judged or questioned for her choice of clothing ESPECIALLY by a so called "friend". Not all people dress a certain way to get attention. When I was 15 I used to wear short shorts and I hated it when men would look at my butt. But I wouldn't stop wearing a piece of clothing I LIKED because men couldn't keep their fucking eyes straight!! So NO!! Attention is not necessarily the thing she's looking for.

[ReginaFilange]

Sorry, i realized you didn't say you were friends. But even so she shouldn't be judged. So I'm gonna stick with my opinion.

[Asker]

Haha! If I wanted to I could easily change my clothing and wait for those guys to to come. Why would I be jealous of her? Is it pretty weird to wear shorts that are 2 sizes smaller. I know you want to be feminist and all and she “shouldn’t be judged” but some girls do overdo it. I stick with this opinion too

[ThePityPartyGirl]

It's normal to wear shorts and a short top if the weather is hot or whatever. If the shorts show her butt and its completely obvious it is most likely for attention. It's like wearing a thong (attention) instead of a bikini short. You dont need to show off too much skin to get attention.

[bklynbadboy1]

Well said👏👏👏

[Asker]

No I know, I was saying she always wears shorts that are too tight for her though. Like you can’t miss that.

[Anonymous]

Yes.
I'm sure they enjoy it because they are comfortable, but it is also about thinking you look good so dressing to show it off.
Why dress to show off that you look good, if you don't want other people to notice it. It is about attention.

Doesn't make her a slut. I mean, you can dress like that without looking too exposed, and it doesn't mean she's attempting to get guys to try to hook up with her, but there really is no question she expects people to look and likes it.

That said, you also ask "do I have to resort to this to be attractive?" And the answer is no. Sometimes, not dressing like that is even more attractive, because when I'm dealing with a pretty girl who dresses normally, I feel more at ease with her and more able to appreciate aspects of her, slowly, then have them basically put in my face.

[vivmatt]

Hm if she feels good wearing that then all the power to her. I hear this argument a lot towards well endowed and curvy girls. Especially young girls who still aren't sure how to style their body type. ESPECIALLY when their bodies may fluctuate constantly between sizes depending on their hormones. Give her some time, she'll figure it out

[Asker]

She has been the same size for years tho

[archiz]

What do you bother with how other people dress?
Also don't act nor dress like smthng you're not.
Just be yourself, and the guy that suits you will come around.
No point in having a bunch of guys following you around if you don't match with them.

[JSmuve]

Probably, though she'd totally deny it if asked. Guys like her because they know she's likely open for business. You definitely don't have to resort to that unless you're desperate for any attention and don't really care if guys have respect for you. Also, if she's wearing xs when she's a medium, since the waist would be smaller, please tell me she's not sporting a muffin top because that would be pretty gross of her.

[Anonymous]

Not all sizes on clothing are the same depending on the clothes and the brand

Like I fit into various sizes When it comes to clothing one top I can fit into a small while another top I can fit into an XL It’s the same for me with pants and shoes I’m never one size

maybe it is the same for the girl you are talking about maybe she fits into various sizes but to answer your question no it’s no always about getting attention

[smb930]

I feel like that's the case more so with breast cleavage than legs. But it depends on the person. Plus, ever been to the Southern USA during the Summer? Everyone wears shorts because its so dang hot and humid, nothing to do with sex at all (generally speaking).

[janasam]

Let it be, it lasts for a while only. Dont ever copy them even if they get attracted eyes on them. At the end of the day they are not happy inside. People who are conservative and modest and sophisticate will always get a good match. They are always respected and in this society beauty is only being used while modesty is praised. Remember this, it will remain same till the last day of this earth. Dont get used instead praised.

[JHwong]

No lmfaoooo some of us just like that style for the occasion? The ones who always wear it likes that style all the time. Not everything is about getting attention ya know?

[2ndTryatThis]

She knows exactly what she’s doing... I knew a woman who dressed like that whenever I came to do work on her house.. it is sexy.. she definitely got me hard on purpose.. when I’d climb up my ladder I’d always catch her staring at it. Some women get off on getting men off, or aroused.. it’s no big deal, just do what you like.

[DannyFanny]

I'm sure some girls are just like that and they don't think about what guys might think, but I know for a fact that most girls that do this do it for attention, it's I'm okay with it. I only wear stuff like that at home or exercising

[DashboardLight]

Don't know about you, but over here it's already starting to get 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit) already. Imagine the temperature levels in June, July... completely justified to me to wear really short shorts and midriff shirts then in my opinion.

[7771999]

A summer dress will protect your skin, whilst giving you enough cool air to be comfortable

[Mystic_Nova]

Nope, I love midriff shirts and it's because I work hard for my body and I feel good knowing I can work a midriff. As for shorts, I dont wear short shorts because my butt and hips eat them and I end up getting wedgie in the front and back lol

[PeacefulRainDrop]

Honestly depends on the girl my cousin would by extra large shirts and they would still be one. she's 6ft 5 now always been the size of a tooth pick but has her clothes customize made.. some might do it for attention some might not like in her case

[CubsterShura]

If she was wearing them for comfort she would wear sizes that fit, even if she went smaller I don't think anyone has to go two sizes smaller for comfort. Something's definitely going on.

[The_Other]

100%...
... and even if its is possible in any rare circumstance that the answer might be "no"... MAYBE... she definitely will still know that guys will look... so they know what they are doing even though they say otherwise.

[SamtheDnDgirl]

Not always, it could be really hot, she could just happen to like the look. She might find that look to be sexy for her. Not every sexy look is for other people, you know.

[Asker]

Not sexy if it is obvious that your wearing 2 sizes smaller.

[MannMitAntworten]

Wearing cleavage? Flat chested aside, isn’t that just par for course as a woman? I mean my ex who I often saw naked always had cleavage.

As for her choice of clothing, why does it bother you? She is her and you are you.

[Asker]

Hahaha

[Asker]

Lol it bothers me because it’s cheap

[MannMitAntworten]

Then why be friends with someone who’s attire bothers you so much?

[Asker]

We are not friends she’s a relative

[MannMitAntworten]

Ah. Have ypu expressed om detail how her attire makes you feel?

[MannMitAntworten]

You* in*

[Asker]

Lol no she’s quite defensive about her body in general. My aunt once made a joke saying she gained weight and she literally started yelling at her.

[Asker]

As a response

[MannMitAntworten]

She should have been clever and say she is retaining water.

[Asker]

No she actually argues she’s a XS but it is obvious she is not. Like you can’t be curvy and skinny at the same time

[MannMitAntworten]

Not necessarily true. An ex of mine was a size zero, weighed 98 lbs at 5’-5 1/2” and was all bust and butt/hips weight. Both natural and I could nearly place my hands around her. Just how both her and her sister were built. Granted, Utah women tend to run on the slender yet curvy side.

[KaylaJoy]

You can be curvy and skinny, those are two different things. Skinny is about how bone, muscle, and fat density. Curvy is about where your body distributes fat. Skinny, medium sized, and large people can all be curvy depending on their body shape.

[Asker]

@KaylaJoy I know her personally though. She’s not XS. No fucking way

[KaylaJoy]

And that’s fine, I was just finding fault with your blanket statement that no skinny person can be curvy. I personally am skinny, but “curvy.” But I would never dress in that way. I prefer modesty, and the men that you attract when modestly dressed are more to my liking.

[Asker]

@KaylaJoy haha why are you trying to find a mistake in what I’m saying?

[KaylaJoy]

Because I don’t like blanket statements

[Asker]

@KaylaJoy oh well there are lots of things I don’t like either

[egarcia1360]

Yeah, probably, but... so what? People tend to get whatever attention they seek, so if someone's okay with people being drawn to her for her body, that's her choice to make. It is what it is.

[Madhatter920]

No, you don't have to, but it helps. No, she isn't necessarily trying to get attention. She may just be confident. Although, attention usually comes as a result of being confident.

[Sensmind]

Yes there does sound like there is an element of attention seeking there probably masking some insecurity underneath

[ImSparkly]

It’s one thing to wear that for sport, it’s another to wear that to the mall. I’m in the former. I’ll agree that it’s an attention getting tactic.

[Anonymous]

Nah. I wear stuff like that too a lot because it’s comfortable, looks cute and I do feel very confident in my new body. Not everyone who shows a little skin wants attention.

[Asker]

She doesn’t show just a “little skin” though.

[Opinion Owner]

The “little skin” part wasn’t literal

[TripleAce]

100 lol
unless you live in like a warm place most of the year, then its common to be half naked all the time

[Reaperbot666]

if she's wearing cloths that are 2 sizes 2 small. so they hug her body tighter. seems like she is seeking something.

[SAMI_DABBAB]

It's either for attention or she "feels" sexy wearing these clothes (meaning she'll wear these clothes or any clothes which make her feel this way even if they don't attract anyone).

[Anonymous]

give it a minute. you'll be flooded with replies from girls saying that she's only trying to dress comfortably. They'll conveniently leave out the fact that what makes this girl "comfortable" is getting attention.

[Asker]

I mean I also wear cleavage but I never try to make my butt the focus. If it’s a sexy dress it is but I wouldn’t wear XXS shorts to make guys. Drool

[Opinion Owner]

on behalf of all guys everywhere, thank you! haha. It's nice to be able to appreciate a girl looking good without getting so distracted by her showing off as much of her body as possible, that we forget our own names. lol

[Asker]

Some girls overdo it and that’s how they get guys which is not fair. I have a good boy and face but I’m never slutty

[Opinion Owner]

it's fun when they leave a little to the imagination like you do. :)

[Asker]

There are some trolls here. 🤔

[Opinion Owner]

you should add me. and yeah trolls are everywhere

[slatyb]

Maybe she is. So what? Why do you feel "it's a bit much?" Do you just dislike the competition?

[McKellar]

I could be honest with my answer on this question,... but I'm sure there are a lot of people on here who won't take very lightly upon my response, so I'm sure there's no point.

[Asker]

No say it

[McKellar]

I'm sure it will come across as being "creepy" and there maybe no "filter" to my response.

[angeliquedevereux2]

I do. Just because i like the style and I find shorts comfortable

[sensible27]

What you try to/intend to attract partners with is (to some extent) what they will want more of...

[DeeDeeDeVour]

It could also be that some girls/women are more comfortable with those kinds of clothes on.

[tHISpLACEiSbONKERZ]

The truth is that she has something to show off so she does, you don't so you think it's a bit much. This is nothing more than simple jealousy.

[Asker]

As if

[tHISpLACEiSbONKERZ]

You're an open book. This is some basic shit.

[Asker]

Being an open book is a good thing. But no why would I be jealous of her? I also have boobs and ass to flaunt if I wanted to

[tHISpLACEiSbONKERZ]

Because you went as far as making a post about it. I'm pretty sure she never made any about you. Because why would she? All you're doing here is letting everyone know you're jealous.

[Asker]

Again I’m not jealous. Stop making assumptions

[devil_8888]

By wearing such dress, she’s gonna attract creeps rather than nice guys. But still it’s her choice and can’t be judged.

[Asker]

Lol yeah. It doesn’t affect me in any way

[Spleenz]

It's pretty hard to say because most times it is because they want attention but if you confront them it's always "how dare you! I have the right to feel comfortable in anything I wear!" And it clearly doesn't look comfortable at all..

[AmtgardJean]

Not necessarily. They may just be comfortable for them.

[winterfox10]

She's wearing them to get attention, but that's not the only reason why guys are paying attention to her.

[R3DthatDude]

If you want a sex buddy yea. She is only attracting dudes that want just sex, she isn’t a bring her to see mom type woman.

[Browneye57]

Of course. Why else? Desperately needy, for validation and attention.

[Asker]

Haha yeah. And if your not doing it you are not feeling free or sexy according to some people’s opinion

[Browneye57]

And they're trying to 'feel sexy' why? Trolling? Seducing? It's all about attention, right? Otherwise they wouldn't bother.
Or put another way, yoga pants are gods gift to men. ;)
Just don't wear 'em if'n yer fat.

[Asker]

She’s kind of slutty tbh and I’m not saying that to be a bitch

[Browneye57]

Of course. She likely thinks she can snag a guy if she has sex with him. Which may well be true, but likely not the kind of guy she really wants. And it makes her less than desirable in the process. We make our own bed. :)

[Rolando755]

Depends. If it's around the house or running errands down in florida then no. If it's to school or work then yeah, she's probably looking for attention.

[dcog88gm]

a lot of it is the attention and the ruffled feathers it causes between the other girls. Then there the self opinion she might not think she's pretty enough in regular clothes and doesn't get the attention and complements she craves.

[humanearth]

Nah, but if a middle-aged old man would look so sexy dressed that way. LMAO

[elizamichale1]

Not always but there's nothing wrong in wanting the attention if you have what it takes

[AnnonEMouse]

No. Maybe she just finds it comfortable. Especially if it's hot out.

[SirRexington]

I would assume she wants extra attention to feel good about herself.

[worldscolide]

Weather she admits it or not, she is seeking attention.

[bolverk]

Maybe she's been wearing that style so long its become like a uniform for her.

[Anonymous]

I wear what I wear because I like to show off. If I'm not getting any attention, I get pissed off.

[bklynbadboy1]

At least your honest I like that!

[Asker]

@bklynbadboy1 yeah not like some girls who turn this into a feminist argument

[nawtee_me]

Not attractive no, but it would get more attention. I could jerk off to those pinup girls lol

[OpenNudist]

Personally I don't think so, I'm a guy, I still thinking attractive an sexy

[bamesjond0069]

Yeah she sounds like a whore. She isn't anything to emulate.

[ali92ka]

I asked such a question for a girl before... She told me she feels comfortable in her own style

[KcWayne93]

The way I see it yes. But there are sometimes I'm known to be wrong.

[MyraAmmar]

It’s said no, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. Nobody should be judged on their attire, it’s their fucking personal choice..

[Thatsamazing]

That's not how that works

[Asker]

@Thatsamazing thank you lol. It’s like you give out an impression with anything you wear although it’s your personal choice.

[Thatsamazing]

Right, it's both-- yeah it's your choice, just like it's everyone else's choice to look at it and be like "oh that's cool" or "oh that's ugly" or "oh she's a slut." One does not negate the other. That's not logical.

[Anonymous]

Maybe, but so what? Girls wearing that type of outfits are the hottest, I bet most guys agree ;)

[nodnol32]

Whatever makes her comfortable.

[TonyBologna25]

I just enjoy the view when women do that lol.

[Karachan]

Does this girl have a bellybutton piercing?
