+1 yHello! A Woman speaking here:) LOL Men tend to be visually stimulated creatures, which is why the whole "wandering eye" thing is a "thing" in the first place. With that being said, if you are dressing SOLELY for a man and not your own comfort then look at this way: Revealing clothing will draw attention to your body, not YOU and will make men think of sex with you... it will cause immediate attention and stimulation in them, whether it be temporary or not. Wearing regular or non-revealing clothing will make them wonder what you would look like in more revealing clothing, it leaves something to the imagination, which may in essence, make you seem like more of a mystery to be discovered. Think of it this way, would you buy a candy bar from a store that has already been unwrapped? LOL probably not... part of the joy is unwrapping it right? Just as we open gifts on Christmas... when the presents are wrapped we can't wait to open them! there's nothing wrong with slipping into a "Freakum Dress" every now and then but you must always be conscious of the reasons behind why you are wearing what you're wearing in the first place. You should dress in things that accentuate your best features, not just to impress a guy. Some guys may want you in something revealing while others may not but what do YOU think? what makes YOU feel good about you? thats most important. The greatest thing that you can ever wear is CONFIDENCE and that does not require a slutty dress. xoxo

Please, learn some grammar.
What why! I seriously hate this question. Firstly why does it matter what a guy likes to see me in people should wear what they feel comfortable and good in, and that's the best look for everyone! That being said if I want to wear a turtle neck to a bar because I feel good in it I'm not a prude and I'm not innocent and if I want to wear short shorts and a cropped tank top I'm not a slut! Showing skin is completely up to you and generally a girl shouldn't seek validation and approval from guys for everything she does! Do your own thing feel comfortable in your own skin whether you show it or not and do it for you.

Anonymous(30-35)+1 yA few prefer modest clothes and even fewer preferrevealing clothes but that's just more "advertised"
But most guys would prefer a girl dresses to show their best qualities and in doing so doesn't show their worst qualities
I know saying this is alittle unfair but its true, sorry
But really anything is fine as long as it isn't sweatpants and a sweatshirt everyday
So change it up
But guys like clothes like leggings or skinny jeans or crop tops or maybe even a kinda tight t shir (not too tight though)
Whatever you think looks good guys will like too
But make sure to show your best superficial qualities
But instead of modest or revealing clothes try some thing that would seem "cute"
What you would consider cute a guy would like
So basically I agree with
"Neither. I want a girl who knows how to dress for her best asset, then covers the rest" this guy

Jaja I laughed when you said "you don't need to dress like a nun" cause the other day I was at catholic mass and there was this gorgeous girl who had a huge beautiful booty (I felt like I was sinning big cause I couldn't keep my eyes off her arse.

@TheDevilInside
true... but do they have a greater chance at a meaningfull relationship?
Because from what i've seen, dressing reealing makes you a player/bad boy magnet. And we all know what that leads to...
Hence i'd say "not all attention is good attention. So dress with the goal to get the good form of attention" - +1 y
@dartmaul15: I didn't mention anything about meaningful relationships.
I am aware of what you said, and I agree with you. However, you cannot deny that when guys look at girls on the street, their eyes would immediately go to the less covered bodies and as long as the less covered girls are there, the covered-up girls would pretty much get very little to no attention. Sucks for us who dress modestly, but that's what the fact is... You boys don't talk to your friends about a girl, saying "wooo, look at the personality or the smile or the hair or the class on that chick!" - +1 y
yes we look. But what do we say afterwards? Is it positive? Is it negative? Do we objectify her?
My point is that while revealing often means more attention, it does not necesarily mean good attention. So blindly whoring attention will oftentimes get you the quick and easy bad kind, that will just hurt you.
Besides, you girls seem to hate being hit on by the wrong guys anyway. Or did that suddenly change? - +1 y
@dartmaul15: I'm aware of all that. The QA doesn't say what kind of attention she wants to get from guys. So I just state the facts, neutrally. As what happens in the world.
As for me, of course I don't condone walking around half naked. I'm a modest girl, and I'd have to say it sometimes just sucks when you're walking around in summer with your freely dressed friend. You become invisible. You want guys to look at you too, to also want to talk to you, to also find you in your modest clothing attractive, but it's just like we're a wall that this hot chick is standing next to.
I don't want to attract the wrong kind of guys, but getting attention from the opposite sex is always an ego boost. And you can't get any attention if all the guys are looking at other chicks and none at you. Being modest would sometimes mean being invisible, and that sometimes suck.
I can't bring myself to dress skankily tho, so I'd just have to deal with being a wall.
Anonymous(30-35)+1 yreavealing clothing always has a immediate effect over more modest clothing but I myself am slow so I tend to notice faces after that and a pretty face has a stronger effect for me then a lack of clothing over the long-term at least. In the case of what your looking for wear revealing clothing if you want attention and men to come up to you, and modest clothing if not. In the case of modest clothing when a man comes up to you it's more likely by that point he's thinking about getting to know you more then about sex

Your name is so sexist... :/
I prefer my girlfriend, wife, mother, or daughter to wear modest clothing. I prefer and expect girls who are strippers, models, actresses, or the latter to wear super revealing clothing.
Furthermore, girls you lust after you want them to take off their clothes, but girls that you love, you want to buy more clothes, like this mink, for them to put on.

+1 ythere is a way to wear non-revealing clothes and still be sexy
i love girls that know how to wear clothes, it shows elegance and class, i would never date a girl that wears revealing clothing again, usually they want attention and don't care where it comes from, and whether its positive or negative30 Reply
+1 yWell, here's the thing: (and this is just for me)
I see a girl in passing, I like to see a lot of skin. It turns me on and I start thinking of nice things. But at that point I've lost all respect for that girl because the only thing I know about her at this point is that she likes attention. Which sounds really shallow, right?
If it's a girl that I know, I don't like to see it because I'm a particularly protective guy.
If it's a girl that I'm dating, I'll be really annoyed by it because then I know she's trying to get attention from other guys or girls that aren't me. Then I feel incompetent because, I mean, is my attention not enough for her. You know?

However if it is someone that they are interested in or are in a relationship modesty is what you will want because it shows that they have a sexy side but is mature enough to be modest.

+1 yA loaded question. I'm 23, and have started to realize that while someone might be nice to look at, I just don't have the patience to deal with drama. And a girl that dresses in revealing clothing is going to get many people chasing her, and I'm just not into that whole chasing game. I'm more into courtship, and building relations with people.
Also, guy who dates a girl who dresses revealing is ALWAYS going to be protective, and afraid she will cheat. Trust issues aplenty00 ReplyA girl that dresses appropriate for the occasion and setting is best. There are times and places to dress fully modest. There are times and places to dress in revealing clothing. I like a girl who dresses modest when modesty is best and I like a girl who dresses slutty when dressing such a way can be acceptable. I would not really want a girl who dressed modest a hundred percent of the time and I would not want a girl who dresses in revealing clothes a hundred percent of the time.
00 ReplyNothing beats a classy and elegant woman. A girl with revealing clothing might catch my attention, but only for a 1 second. I think that during that second she entertains my neanderthal subconscious. In the next second, my modern age man personality kicks in and demises her. Femininity is in the way a woman carries herself. Not in bare skin.
60 ReplyThe Devils in the details. No one would like an extra large hoody with jeans that would make a rapper jealous. But women that have a feel for this manage to cover themselves decency while accentuating their curves and feminity, without being half naked.
Also the tendency nowadays is the wear cloths that covers everything but are skin tight. Those also don't leave much to the imagination. I'd lie if I said I didn't like it though.01 Reply- +1 y

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yIt all depends on the occasion and the girl, and how she pulls it off. I've seen a girl wear some fairly revealing clothing but in a tasteful manner that I just find it really sexy and cute rather than slutty. Of course that was for a more "night out" occasion and not that formal. I also saw her wear a properly covered outfit for a more formal occasion. And when it was just a casual trip out she wore simple shirt and jeans.
