As a matter of personal preference I like it when women dress modestly better, but it’s not up to me to tell other competent adults how to dress. If students are in violation of district policy, or my own children are exceeding the limits of propriety, that is significantly different than telling just anybody how to dress.
It’s not proper but misogynistic is a bit of a reach. However think how hot women who define beauty dress effect our daughters. They think they have to dress like that to get the attention of boys… They think without the attention of boys they have no value…
We do our girls a great disservice by allowing this kind of behavior to influence them. Anyone that don’t help benefit society should be removed from it. They shouldn’t benefit from something they don’t work towards.
You dress that way to feel good is what your gonna argue.
You get that good feeling by having people recognize you specifically men but women will do… you still want attention.
Feel free to argue otherwise with something of substance. Ide love to hear one single argument I can even slightly agree with that defends women feeling better by how they dress that isn’t effected by how other people see them.
I dont say this to be rude, but im just curious. I see this used often on topics like this and others, but no one ever explains that if females dont dress/act certain ways such as this for guys, then what do they do it for? Just wondering.
Yess everyone should be allowed to dress however they want. No need to tell someone else how to dress if your uncomfortable with it then look the other way
If it is the husband, then it is not. However, it is your decision what you wear. If you do not like what he is saying or if he does not like what you are wearing then best is that you find a middle ground as marriage is all about give and take and patience and sacrifice. If it is really beyond agreement, then worst outcomes can follow.
I'd say it's not cause men have to cover up too, it's not like wear doing anything you can't.
And dont tell me about shirtless men in public, yeah I e seen them and they look like trashy dushebags, they need to put a fucking shirt on.

I've asked my girlfriend if she had something formal for a wedding we were invited to, but beyond things like that idc what she wears. she's usually in short shorts and a crop top
Good for you. Glad you're not insecure like some guys. They don't want their women dressing like that because they think they'll draw attention to other men.
I wouldn't say I'm immune from feeling insecure. The way I look at it, I know she loves me and if she wanted to be with someone else then I wouldn't want to be with her anyway, y'know? I get that some dudes want to be with a woman who has more of a modest temperament, but it definitely gets weird when you try to force your ideals and morals on others
Of course it is, a woman should be able to dress any way she wants. I don't care if she's married or not. If a husband has a problem with it then they should have a discussion. In the end it's her decision.
If by Mysoginy u mean Societal control, then u light have a point. But by that same logic, does asking a man to wear fragrance or a deodorant amount to reverse Mysoginy?

How would that be reverse misogyny? Do you mean misandry? Men aren’t women. Putting on deodorant is about having basic hygiene. However, no one should have to wear fragrance (perfume, cologne, body spray) if he/she doesn’t want to.
It's a ploy used by companies to create a market and tap into the huge untapped share of customers by raising the basic hygiene issue and linking it with male machismo. For e. g., a lady saying, he can lift a 100 kilos in the gym but doesn't wear perfume! Is he the man for you, ladies?
Perhaps it's Misandry perhaps... basic hygiene for some... Reverse Mysoginy...
I wouldn't call it misogynistic, but I would call it rude. I dress rather conservatively, but I have little confidence when it comes to my body post-pregnancy, but I'm working on it
I guess it would depend on how you do it, but generally, I don't think there's anything wrong with reminding women that do judge books by their covers; regardless of whether it's right or wrong.
Honestly no. I think it goes both ways. For the situation, I would expect an honest women to tell a guy not to dress like a frat bro. For a woman, I feel like I shouldn’t have an issue saying to dress modest for the occasion. Yes I support a woman to be proud in their body and wear whatever they want. But I also believe in respect and first impressions for the situation so it’s okay to recommend dressing modest.
If you mean about clothing which isn't too revealing then it's all fine. It would be right to say when that lady is dressing in a way too revealing way.
I agree with you to an extent. Yes, they should be able to wear what they want but within limits. For example, no one should wear a crop top or a bikini to a job interview. That’s common sense. That would be appropriate for the beach though.
You can wear crop tops, mini dresses, mini skirts, ripped jeans, short shorts/high waisted shorts and show cleavage just don't be surprised if every man within 1 mile breaks his neck to look at you.
Puhlese, you women have so many fashion options yet lots of you would choose the whory look. You just have so many options that if one gives limitations to what you can wear, you'd be like "SEXIST MFs" it's time you learn some discipline to wear what you should wear at certain places.
You never said anything about job interviews or any formal events before you made an update. And also it's just someone telling a woman not a dress inappropriately for lots of good reasons. But it doesn't mean they are forcing you. We live in a society not in the wilds

A bit, and it's also quite rude. Other people's clothing choices don't affect you.
Exactly. They have their right to have their opinions but when they start trying to dictate how people can dress it’s so out of place.

Girls don’t dress like that to attract the attention of boys. Some do but certainly not all do.
Your wrong cherry. I’ll explain why.
You dress that way to feel good is what your gonna argue.
You get that good feeling by having people recognize you specifically men but women will do… you still want attention.

That’s a nicer way of saying what I was trying to say thanks.
Although women like attention no matter whom it comes from. Attention from womens just as valuable.

Yes definitely. Everyone has insecurities so it's okay. That you feel that way I mean.
Of course it is, a woman should be able to dress any way she wants. I don't care if she's married or not. If a husband has a problem with it then they should have a discussion. In the end it's her decision.
many of them are... but not all of them, most of them are just insecure AF themselves, lol
I think it is appropriate for women to dress conservatively in circumstances
Yes in certain circumstances.
I think the misogyny part is thinking you can tell women what to do. It doesn't really matter what that is.
Having an opinion is not a problem, thinking that yours trumps other people's opinions is.

It should be a woman's choice on what to wear is how I see things maybe I am wrong
I agree with you to an extent. Yes, they should be able to wear what they want but within limits. For example, no one should wear a crop top or a bikini to a job interview. That’s common sense. That would be appropriate for the beach though.
@Cherry234 Yeah, I agree with you.
Nope, certain occasions like formal diners or professional meet up require conservative dressing.
Yeah ofc. But outside of formal occasions it shouldn’t matter (like the beach, the mall, an amusement park, etc.)
You can wear crop tops, mini dresses, mini skirts, ripped jeans, short shorts/high waisted shorts and show cleavage just don't be surprised if every man within 1 mile breaks his neck to look at you.

It’s common sense to not wear a crop top at a job interview but it’s my right to wear one if I’m going to the mall.
You never said anything about job interviews or any formal events before you made an update. And also it's just someone telling a woman not a dress inappropriately for lots of good reasons. But it doesn't mean they are forcing you. We live in a society not in the wilds
It depends on the context. If you're talking about in general then yeah, it would be seen as sexist.
If you're talking about in the workplace or a formal event then no, it wouldn't be sexist.
Simples...
