Search Results: boys like girls shirts

I recently got into an argument with my mom because I was at the Starbucks at my Target alone when this thirty-something year old man randomly sat next to me, even though there were other empty seats everywhere, and started complimenting me. Now I know this might just be him trying to be nice, but keep in mind that I am a 4'11, 16 year old girl. I politely say thank you but proceeded onto texting my mom, who is shopping in the same Target, to please hurry because I was a bit scared.
Later on, as my mom and I discussed about the incident, the conversation led to an argument about whether or not girls should be showing less skin (even though I was just wearing gym shorts and a t-shirt) to avoid guys' "instinctual" reactions. In her opinion, girls should be taught to wear more modest clothing as opposed to what I thought, which was to teach guys to control their behavior instead.
Her argument is that by wearing revealing clothes, it is almost like girls are "asking for it". Even in hot weather, she says girls shouldn't be so revealing because less fabric doesn't affect your body temperature that much.
As for my argument, I said that instead of pushing the idea of covering up more down girls' throats, we should teach guys to control their behaviors instead. Along with that, I also argued that girls don't even have to be wearing revealing clothing to be catcalled. I gave my outfit, a high school t-shirt with gym shorts and flip flops, as an example of this.
