Nothing at all wrong with that. Lots of men, I think most, don't care about heels. Yeah, they're cool when a person walks in them well, but it is far more of a downside if they wear them and can't walk in them.

You said trouble walking. As in general? Foot issues? Just wondering as how a person moves has lots to do with attraction to me.

Unfortunately,I'm disabled, so that's probably a huge strike against me. But not ugly by any means probably about a 6-8/10 depending on the day

No worrys. That look on a woman can be totally awesome.
But you have to know what flatters your figure.
If you are rocking out baggy t-shirts like its 1993, it might be a fail.
But if you wear a fitted t-shirt and it looks appropriate, it looks great.

and personally, I like to see a woman rock that outfit, to me it shows they can be comfortable NOT all dolled up. Confidence is key

Don't know for sure.



I'm never picky about clothes on a woman.

Wear whatever you want as long as I can "see" you and your shape.

I have yet to figure out why women hide their curves.

Listen to too many gay fashion managers I guess.


You make a very good poing point here. Many of my male friends dont understand why some women choose to wear clothes that are way too big and bulky on them.

That is going to limit the pool, sure. For better or worse. For me, I want a lady friend I can hike, run, play tennis with, etc. So those things might be limited. But undoubtedly you're a good catch for someone.

I can do those things, just not as well as an abled body person. Most people don't even know that I am disabled unless I tell them. I just walk differently. I think most guys are writing me off with preconceived notions about disabled people. That's another topic, but I just want to clear the air.

Because women aren't here for the sole purpose of looking attractive to others? Maybe those women keep getting harassed and cat called by men while going to work or running errands and they hope by covering up their shape a bit they won't be harassed as often.

I actually have a few girlfriends who purposely wear big bulky sweatshirts and whatnot because they were sick of the harassment and didn't like feeling fearful.

I'm fine with a t-shirt/jeans type, but not every day of the week. It's nice to wear a summer dress, skirt, or something to mix it up.

You aren't looking that way for other men. This thread and OP means your boyfriend.

Most secure boyfriends and husbands get off when guys check our woman out.

Some guys even give you a thumbs up or something to show their approval.

That boosts both of their egos and self esteem.

FWIW....I can only think of ONE use for a baggy/saggy shirt.....

You won't be "fearful" at all while wearing it and what's under it.
