The other day I was sitting in a waiting room and a very pretty young woman walked in. She was tall, blonde, very fit and she wore a Tshirt that exposed her stomach and really tight grey yoga pants that didn't leave much to the imagination.
She was very distracting to say the least but I don't think that she dressed like that to attract attention.
She lingered for a minute and then passed through to another room and I looked at the guy that was sitting several chairs away and we both picked our jaws off the floor at the same time.
I noticed that he kept staring at her and I did my best to go back to the magazine I was reading after all I am a happily married man and I respect my wife but I will admit that I do still admire the female form (from a distance) like I think most men do.
The question is, why does a woman dress so provocatively if not to be stared at?
I understand that she might not know what she is doing to most red blooded men that see her.
She may also dress to try and attract a boyfriend or she might dress like that because it is comfortable on a hot day.
She might be comfortable but I think most men are uncomfortable especially in this day and age of sexual harassment.
When is it Ok to look at a pretty young women in revealing clothes and when is it not?
I think it is rude to stare but is it respectable to take a notice and how long does it take for a look to qualify as a creepy stare?
For me it was a bit awkward to be seated a few feet away and at eye level with her exposed belly button.
She just has a bad taste in the way how she is dressing, and no one told her about proper attire in the public. Probably consciously provocative. Poor thing, she doesn't know that a woman can hide few of her best assets, and still look beautiful and desirable...
Staring at another person is rude, no matter what are they wearing or behaving.
I sympathize with you, OP. I'm a female and I believe there is a culture of slutty dressing some women may not understand they've fallen into. I don't know what the answer is. Go back to Victorian dresses with skirts to the ankles and sleeves to the wrists?
I don't see anything wrong with looking at people. What's wrong is looking in a way that makes someone uncomfortable, or is aggressive or demeaning, like staring at someone's breasts instead of looking at her face when she's talking, or letting your gaze continue to rest on a stranger after they've noticed and kind of cringed away from the stare.
Why does she dress that way? She's hot. She knows it. Her friends likely all dress that way too.
So look, don't stare. Smile. She may be trolling but not for you.
THIS!~ she wants to be looked at and admired, but not stared at. There IS a difference.
