First of all I'm a girl but bi leaning to women, so I hope what I say is still valid.
A bit of both. I respect her bravery but can't really shake the thought that she's just trying to get a guy using sexual attraction.
Would I want a girlfriend who did it? Not for that alone, but ir wouldn't be off putting. On one hand she's confident, adventurous and likely attractive. On the other I'm not at all special to be able to bask in her beauty.
My basis for respect is what kind of a person is she? Is she nice? Does she speak kindly to people? Is she helpful? Those would determine if I respect her. What pictures she posts of herself would not determine if I respect (or dis-respect) her.
Who cares? Honestly. It's her body and she can do whatever she wants with it. Doesn't make her any less respectable in my opinion. People need to stop shaming other people for being happy with themselves. Doesn't mean she's "slutty" or an "attention whore". She's just a person, living her life freely. As she should. That's all.
the question did not have anything to do with if she wants to pr anything you said. there's a lot of girls who do it just for attention because they have nothing else to offer
Yes but that isn't anyone else's problem. The question is if you respect them. I do, and I don't think anyone should "lose" respect for someone for posting a picture in a bikini or "tiny outfits". Do you lose respect when you see girls wearing bikinis at the pool or on the beach? No. If she wants to take a picture in a bikini and post it, she should be able to without people judging her. Whether or not it's for attention. People are way too concerned with what everyone else is doing.
I dont like people who dont respect themselves and show their nudity (or almost nudity) to a whole world, so nope i dont respect them since they dont respect themselves. Of course i would never have a girlfriend who does it. The same goes for clothes you wear in public.
I actually don't see the need to wear more than a bikini for casual wear. Additonal clothes have the purpose of providing functional skin protection if you're at work or if it's cold out. If those things are not going on, then there is no reason not to wear a bikini. And if you have a good picture in one, there is no reason not to post it on social media.
I guess it just depends. If they're doing it to be slutty in any type of way, you know those girls that sexualize themselves, I lose respect. But other girls do it just because they are happy and bold and love themselves, and don't do it every time they take a selfie... those are the girls that I respect and envy sometimes
Firstly, I have a baseline level of respect for all people, unless you do something to really mess that up (I think only two people I know have done that). Second, I base my respect for a person on how they treat me, how they treat others, and their personality in general. Photos on social media do very little to influence my opinion, and the only way what a girl is wearing would make me think less of her is if it promotes violence, is sexist, racist, homophobic, or otherwise hateful.
It's a double edge sword. you want someone who is good looking and confident, but also want someone that is conservative and trust worthy. And depends on context of picture bc if it's to just get attention, sexual in nature, defitinly not good. but if you both went to beach t9 hang out, then yeah by all means bc guys like to feel like they have that one girl that every guy wants
Being a 15 y/o girl, you don't expect to hear this: No, I do not respect them. It's one thing if it's a casual picture with your friends on the beach or whatever but you can definitely tell when it's being posted to show off. I'm in a situation at the moment where my best friend likes this one girl I dislike, and everyone says she's so sweet. But looking through her photos of her bra and underwear and her in a bikini taking a mirror selfie, it takes that all away. All I see it a girl looking for attention. And that doesn't calculate as "sweet" to me. It just shows me that she's not very humble as a person and humility matters to me.
Put it this way if she thinks it's respectable and acceptable for her to do that then it should also be OK for me to like and comment on bikini girls as well? But you know girls wouldn't accept that now would they. Those pics only serve one purpose and that's to attract attention.. Attention threatens strength of the relationship
Nope. I'd hate if she did something like this. (It's not something that she'd ever do and she doesn't even use social media (Unless discord counts) but I'd still be upset with that) I'd upset me that she would post pictures of herself wearing something revealing, when I don't even have a photo of her in a bikini (or anything less)
I would respect their choice of post but only as long as the picture itself is tasteful/respectful. I mean social media is accessible by anyone who has an internet connection and that includes kids as well (no matter how controlling the parents are kids find ways to do things they're not supposed to) So I think as long as the picture can be shown to a kid while preserving their innocence, then there's no issue. 😊
Good question, I feel less respect towards women who do this if it's out of context. For example her Facebook profile pick versus her private Insta gram. If you won't to post something sexually provocative at least admit that's the attention your after aswell, because you also see chicks ranting about objectification under a barely clad profile pick, I have no respect for that women, as she doesn't have the confidence to own her prowess.
I think it depends on the picture. If its underwear it does not speak well of them. If its a bikini AND in the proper place like at the beach or at a pool its fine. also on the position. Not the same if a girl has a picture of herself in a bikini, just smiling and just a normal position like just standing there, and a girl doing a provocative position (putting her ass out, pressing boobs and putting tongue out etc) and putting an angle where you can see it more
I understand girls mostly do that to help their self esteem, it doesn't bother me at all when a girlfriend does it except for the one rare girlfriend who it was important to her that she get likes whenever she posted something and it would bother her if she didn't.
Posting pics of themselves on their social media doesn't influence if I do or do not respect them.
I think guys really enjoy looking at these pics but wouldn't want their girlfriend to do that. And vice versa. Also, every once in a while to post one such a pic is fine but the whole page being filled with them seem that it belong to attention seeking person.
I respect those girls even more for putting themselves out there like that. I value a relationship with women that do more than women that don't because it says that they're not afraid of their sexuality. That is the kind of woman who isn't afraid to live her life the way she wants 😍
I dont because I have a boyfriend who gets those pictures. Not for everyone to see. Also, I wouldn't want family members includong uncles, aunts, grandparents, etc. to see my body
There's nothing to respect or disrespect about that. I would only find it problematic if it's habitual and it makes up the majority of their social media postings. But the occasional bikini shot is all well.

if i was a guy and my girlfriend was doing that... she won't be my girlfriend anymore.. i won't date some attention wh*re
