Better question, why would you let him control you? First it's clothes, then it's everything else.
I'm of the opinion that no one can tell you how to dress unless the situation is horrendously inappropriate, like wearing a thong bikini to a nursing home.
My boyfriend is kind of like that. He does not demand that I change, well a few times he did. He suggests wearing casual clothing most of the time that does not show so much skin. I hate it but I change because he does have a point sometimes.
I don't put up with a lover trying to control what I wear.
I don't think so.
1. It's your body and you do anything you want with it, or dress it the way you wish.
2. He must trust in you that any men can watch you, but you interest is only on him and that you'll never leave him, he can't have no worries about that.
3. He is insecure, you may talk with him about that. You know, about of what I said in #2
Does the argument hold water?
Can those standards apply to a funeral or a primary school?
If you want to go your own way, then rather be single.
Relationship is wherein you try to understand each other's feelings rather than just calling them insecure, jelous or controlling
There is no need of men restricting women's likes, preferences o anything else that we decide to have. Y'all ain't father of your girlfriend to make her dress up the way you want. She makes her decision.
Qtip.
Agreed.

Would you still hold that belief if you put the shoe on the other foot? There is no need of women to restrict anything a man desires. y'all ain't the mother of these grown men.
Women just don't understand... it.
They'll understand better if they become boys for some day.. lol
Hey Bhagwaan... give them some amount of Sadbuddbi

Is that why you troll? I've seen you before. Is it because arguing an idiot only proves that there are two, type of deal? May as well have fun then?
Yes, that's why I do it.
Its a bit pessimistic of you I think. Like defeat can bring a chance of learning something new. Sometimes people just need to fall down to learn how to get back up and stand tall. However often I am the idiot proving there are two. It's just that given a chance people might pick up on better tricks than just pointless bickering.
@Spawnface "hope" is the biggest human power
Sometimes though I wonder if hope isn't a synomym for stubborn. I see a challenge and I kinda just go for it. I have a weird appetite that way. Hope is basically just the means of keeping my plate full.
Depends where you go...
Teen party that is OK, but not for diner in posh restaurant.
Even then he should suggested that this i inappropriate for this occasion not demand of change, now.
Probably he need one of library girls as girlfriend, not you, if that makes him uncomfortable.
What on earth has it got to do with him what you wear or not? Wear what you want to wear and if he doesn't like it, he can stay home.
That is so controlling it's unreal. Did he tell you you can't wear it, or did he just tell you how it would make him feel (which is OK as he's being honest and open about his feelings)?
No he isn’t. He’s very controlling and this is just the start of more problems to come
He's being reasonable to not want other guys looking at you in a sexually provocative outfit.
Your outfits were so damn fine! He doesn't sound reasonable at all, wear what the hell you want, cause you do you
Why do guys get so attracted to women who dress up but not let their women dress up that way after they get the girl?
Sounds prudish on his behalf but nothing more then him protecting his ego and you're right to not be starred at by random guys hoping to see down your shirt - he could have gone about it a little less "macho guy" though
No no no. Not cool! Maybe everyone is right about him being insecure but wear what you want. It's not up to men to decide what anybody can and can't wear.
Talk to him. Not cool.
What a pity. I actually love waking with my women looking smoking hot. I don't care if guys eye-F her up and down. It actually turns me on, because I'm the one who takes her home and Fs her.
Hell no. I didn’t let him into my life just so he could tell me what i should and shouldn’t wear. The second my boyfriend tries to control me, even on the tiniest thing, I’m dumping his ass.
He's a jerk. He has no right to tell you what to do.
Okay, I wasn't going to say "jerk" but I didn't want my answer removed.
I’d simply laugh a little at his adorable face and say “its funny how you think you can control me like that.. bye boo”
He doesn’t sound reasonable at all. He sounds like a control freak.
If you both love each other deeply from heart ♥ then go with your boyfriend thinking..
