And why is insecurity always implied like some imposing perversion? If you need to display/share your physique with the public, you need to prepare for what comes with that as well. Everyone is different.

No. They just don't want to be with someone who dresses like a streetwalker.

You can't seriously be referring to "Strong Enough" as a theme song for attractive women and how their man has to be "strong" to be with them. Have you actually listen to the lyrics? It's a theme song for clingy desperation and bipolar disorder.

Exactly.

No offense, but that is a bit much. Let's stick to a maximum of 1.5" above the ankles please!

My wife is not the most secure person in the world, nor am I. She has always dressed in a sexually appealing manner and it may be partly because she sees the confirmation in men's eyes that she has trouble giving herself. Part of it could also be, in a much more positive way, that she understands she IS quite sexy and sexual and she is confirmed by dressing like the person whom she really is. She's certainly not ashamed of it. It's no different than a woman who values her intellect and perhaps dresses in more "bookish" way, or a very sophisticated, older Parisian lady who dresses in the most sophisticated manner imaginable. Clothes reflect our personalities. There is nothing to be judged here. People watching is an enjoyable art form, not the judgement at Nurenburg.

No way. I love when my gf dresses sexy. In fact, when I met her she dressed very very conservatively. Almost like her mother, which is weird considering she was 18 when we met haha. Now, I have to reassure her to feel confident in wearing sexy clothes. Sexy dresses. Short high rise shorts, etc. etc. If something doesn't look good it just doesn't, and she appreciates me telling her. She will do the same for me.

I trust her and know that she likes dressing sexy for me and I reassure her that I find her attractive. Guys check her out at the gym when she's with me all the time, a little creepy sometimes, but hey, at least other people find her hot as well so at least I know I did good lol.

As long as me and my husband like what each other are wearing, all's good. Sometimes little skirts and shirts and shorts. Sometimes covered ankles to neck. I figure he goes topless when it gets hot enough. I can wear small shorts and tops when it gets hot out. Although, legally I can go topless where I live. Maybe I should do that. Now THAT would get some attention!

I did not want my s2bx to wear revealing clothing when out. I don't consider that to be insecure. I consider it natural and prudent.

Yep, mine does. Not sure what that means, but if a guy is jealous about guys checking you out, I think it means he's insecure.
