Where do you draw the line ?

Too much is too much - This may be an accepted outfit if you were near a water, and the bra was actually swimming suit , but it's not decent either.

I was in the shopping centre today near my house which is partially a hypermarket and partially a shops mall when i saw this women wear ... well just check out the picture. I for one would not approve of my girlfriend or daughter wear something like this. The question is - where do you draw the line when it comes to clothing and wanting to look more sexy ?

Looking at the picture you posted there is not a lot left to the imagination! Thank goodness that she at least has a nice figure; there are some who bare their bodies and really shouldn’t, I mean they really shouldn’t! lol! Personally I would be extremely embarrassed going out like that and there is no way I would allow my daughter to do so either. It is up to the individual I suppose but the outfit in the picture depicts neither class nor style. It looks tarty in fact. To each their own...

All I can say is she must be wanting attention or something. That is just wrong I would definitely not wear something like that.

Is this an actual picture of the woman wearing the clothes, or a pic you found of a similar woman wearing similar clothes? I think it is a violation to take pics of strangers, and put them God-knows-where. Did you feel you had permission to do this simply because of the way she was dressed? And who are you to approve what another person wears, unless they get to approve what you wear? I hope your girlfriend and daughter has the same say in what you wear, as you have in theirs.

I don't consider it is a violation as there is no way of identifying the person in the picture. As you can see the photo is unclear, and not revealing the face or any particular characteristics of the person presented in the image, nor the name. I did not say i have any say in how a stranger should or could dress, i merely expressed that i would not approve my girlfriend or daughter to dress in a similar manner. Yes i accept critics on clothes from my girlfriend, after all she is the one who will walk along side me, as for the daughter, i think i would be entitled to have a say in it, one that she respects until she is 18, one that she considers after that.

I think some women show way too much to other people. Alot of people do not want to see that and if they do, they do not everyone else to see it if they are the one dating or married to you. Women dress like that for attention.

Maybe that's the reason she is in a mall, to shop for clothes to cover her self up. Some girls think that baring some skin is sexy. Well not all the time. Sometimes it is trashy. People are judgmental. They tend to make conclusions of you just by how you carry yourself in public. So if you don't want to be judge, be aware of what you wear in public.

Well, it is rather hot outside:P Seriously, I don't have any problems with girls that wear this kind of clothes, as long as they have what to show. If you're beautiful it's a pleasure to the eye to see something like this. I would wear any type of clothes combinations as long I would be comfortable wearing them :)

I've always thought that underwear was UNDERwear, to be worn UNDER clothing, not be the clothing. I can't wrap my brain around people who feel a need to dress like this. I've thought that maybe they're not as sexy as they'd like to be so they need to dress in a way that leaves very little to the imagination. 'Sexy', to me, has always been something inside you, not what you wear. It seems to me that people are dressing in a way that says, "I'm too lazy to dress respectfully." I just said that recently to my youngest son, whose pants were almost falling off his butt. He said, "It's the style." I said, "Not here, it's not." So, he pulled them up but I had to tell him that it looks as though he's just too darned lazy to pull them all the way up. Pants almost down around the knees, sneakers/tennis shoes without laces and no socks, tank tops with spaghetti straps that don't cover bra straps, jackets worn down off the shoulders, none of it makes sense to me. Now, this photo of yours, I can't understand her thinking. Maybe she wants to drive men crazy. Maybe she's too insecure and doesn't have enough confidence in her personality to attract attention. Maybe she's looking to be raped, who knows? Call me a prude but my bra is not supposed to be seen and I like it that way. If either of my sons brought a girl over dressed like that, I'd take him aside and ask him to please never bring her over again unless she learns how to dress respectfully. I'd also have to ask him if he was prepared to deal with the stares and comments that come from other men about the way his girlfriend is dressed. If he isn't, he'd better move on and leave her behind.

Hmm.. She must be flaunting her body; either that or it must be the weather hahahah! Sexiness doenst always depend on the curvatures of a slim body. For me, smartness is sexy, hence it doesnt really matter if one is chubby. The brain, is after, the sexiest organ anyway.

First off, great (phone-)camera work elitess! I wonder if this lady is also a myLot user, and would be surprised to see her back in here. I'm a guy, so anything that looks sexy is fine by me. But I agree that there is a line! And for me that line is where the girl is when she's wearing this kind of clothes. While this may be acceptable clothing in some gentlemen-establishments, I certainly don't agree that this is fine clothin in a hypermarket.

The way one dresses is a part of one's identity. A part of who you are. The girl in the photo is dressed a bit revealing but that is her choice. She has to live with the consequences of her actions. I probably would not get too close to women that dress like that but I respect everyone's sense of style and personal expression. It is not up to me to draw the line on how anyone dresses. To each his/her own. I personally like to see women dress in good taste. But of course, I will never tell any woman what not to wear.

Yeah, I agree there was too much skin. Perhaps, the girl forgot to wear inner clothing. It happened to me once. I wore a transparent blouse. I thought I already wore an inner clothing, when I arrived in the office, boy, you could just see the reaction of my co-employees. It was then that I discovered that I forgot to wear an inner clothing to hide my bra. I was in a hurry because I woke up late. Speaking of most embarrassing moment. lol

In my opinion everything depends on the situation and the place. If this girl was at the beach and under the clothes was showing bathing suit not underwear, then I think I wouldn't have been so shocking. But to be dressed like this for a walk in the mall - I have never approved that. Although, you have to come to my country to see how girls are dressing and you would not be so shocked from the way this girl is dressed. Here 13-14 years old girls are dressing like p*ostitutes and go to school in such clothing just because the type of music that is most popular here sets such trend. I have never approved someone to dress like this still less I have approved it for teenage girls, even when I was teenage girl. But in my opinion the main guilt is in the parents allowing their 13-14 years daughters to dress like that and even buying them such clothes.
