Search Results: do looks matter dress

I read a GAG post about slut-shaming and I actually have a question. Is believing a girl who dresses promiscously (Dressing that shows a lot of skin) is risking herself for exposure for unwanted attention or not?

From what I understand, the answer to the question is complicated. However, I believe that the answer is yes and no. Let me explain annd then you can leave your answer in the comment section.

First, I will start with the no:
- No matter how a person dresses, we are not forced to believe or respond a certain way.
- People have thought bad thoughts about a girl, no matter what they dress like.

Ugh, this is all I could come up with for the yes. Hopefully some of you can enlighten me further. Now, for the yeses.

- Even though we can control our own thoughts and behaviors, the way one dresses influences our beliefs of that person. Aside from scantily clad women, people in business suits are treated differently than people in plainclothes. In fact, if you interviewed in a job, if you came up looking like you spent the night underneath the bridge, they will thiink that you do not take care of yourself, even if you are a hard worker, had great references, great experience, and are highly successful.

- Why are you dressing like that? I am a guy, and if I like what I see, I like what I see. No one can blame me for not liking something. It is just natural. I am also heterosexual, meaning I am attracted to women. If a woman shows her goods, I would be tempted to look at it, even though I have been taught to be civil, the woman is still showing it.
- You may do it for a certain person, but you need to realize that other people are looking at your goods too. You walk in public, and your intention may not be a "slut", but your desire may be to get people to desire you because being desirable is the goal of many people.
