That's absolutely not okay. Not okay to me at least or shouldn't be for anyone. I don't even stop my boyfriend from drinking or smoking unless he's doing it in front of me (as I can't bear the sight of it) or too much that it starts harming him... So if he or absolutely anyone will ever tell me what I should or shouldn't wear, they might end up make me despise them..
I think your partner is allowed their opinion as are you. My partner will put something on or have a wacky outfit idea and I will say I don’t like it if I don’t. I expect the same from him. But never prevent or forbid me from wearing things
No it isn't. You should wear what you feel like wearing. Yes, I know there will be times where you'll need their opinion but that should be all they shouldn't try to make you wear clothes you aren't comfortable in
To an extent — like he can tell me if I’m wearing something that’s too revealing and makes him feel uncomfortable. And vice versa I should be able to do the same. Relationships are all about respect for each other. However he has to be reasonable. He can’t get jealous over me wearing normal clothes or being fully covered. That just wouldn’t be fair.
If something you’re wearing genuinely distresses your partner, you shouldn’t wear that thing out of courtesy and respect for your partner. Ultimately it’s your decision and not theirs, but it’s nice to be sympathetic with them.
I think my boyfriend wouldn’t want me to underdress for any occasion. I wouldn’t want him wearing basketball shorts on a date, either. It goes both ways.
Yes but what if his idea of underdressed is different than yours? After all showing your belly button at one time would get you thrown in jail. Even today a woman showing her bare breasts at the beach is considered indecent, and yet it’s a blasphemy that if a man can take off his shirt then why can’t a woman?
Feminist movement worked hard throught history so that we can be free to choose and have equal rights with men, why be so stupid to lose all that and have your partner control what to wear! Makes no sense
Guy is the leader of the house and family. Sets certain rules. Not dressing certain way falls under that, not only for children but also for his wife and himself.
Not talking about a dictatorship. Family unit needs some structure. Somebody has to take the responsibility and what comes with it.
I am against this for sure would love to tell my partner my preference when it comes to which undergarments she can surprise me with on special occasions (it’s not what everyone will think 😂) but she doesn’t have to wear them (tho my preference might confuse her )
I don't believe in controlling anyone or anyone controlling me. Of course, we can try to persuade each other or even leave each other, but I don't believe in controlling anyone and don't allow anyone to control me.
If you’re going to meet the in laws or to a fancy restaurant and someone wants to wear shorts and a tshirt, then yes, your partner has a say. If it’s casual wear and you think it’s too revealing, then that’s when a compromise is due.
It's never ok to control what your partner does or doesn't do
However, you're certainly allowed to tell them how you feel about what they're wearing. You just can't then say go put something else on, or point a gun at their head while doing it
I mean my wife represents our family just as I do, so I have every right to make a comment. If she’s dressing like a slut, then I will say to not wear that. I mean, it just feels weird to say that because if I said my wife is wearing something too revealing, she would want to change. One time my wife wanted to wear a Led Zeppelin shirt to church and I kind of fought her on that. We go to a casual church, but still. My wife’s attire isn’t really an issue.
no one has a right to tell anyone what they should wear or not regardless of what kind of relationship you are in. if you love someone you need to trust them and what they do and the choice they make as well that goes for clothes and for places they attend too.

No never. He can voice his opinion but the moment he wants to control it, it's a big red flag to me
Exactly this

Don’t you think people are responsible for their own feelings? Therefore If something makes them genuinely distressed that’s their problem.

It’s not that deep bro
Uh no, not even a slight bit. That's how you end up single.

Little things lead to bigger things. Signs of a control freak. Absolutely kick them out the door if anyone started in on me.
Who cares as long as it keeps her happy and she is attracted to what she sees. It’s better than not caring at all.
Un popular oppinion, but yes.

I'm a stubbornly independent person and my wife and friends have turned me into a meme with this quote:
... but I also value other people's independence. In the same way I don't want anyone to control me, I also don't want to control them.

What kind of compromise you mean?😉😂

They can have their opinions and suggestions on what to wear but they can't tell you what you can or cannot wear.

No, it’s wrong to control another person (without their consent).
This can be clothing, makeup, what they can buy etc.
Its just wrong to control what another person wears,
She can have a say and voice her opinion but at the end of the day I control what I wear no one else.
