@livelaughlove21 I don’t think anyone would have thought me dressed as a slut, but I was not in jeans and flats all the time, just some of the time. If you look back on old Q’s I say similar to you that people need to be aware of their surroundings and the message they send off. I didn’t like to drive my Porsche into downtown Memphis, I felt it was a safety risk, my husband and his sister felt I was paranoid and ridiculous, and they were not going to let fear control what they wanted to do. I would not wear lots of diamond jewelery down there either, or most major cities for that matter, they would think that absurd also. But, like the scanty clothes, those expensive things might get a person robbed.
Here in FL everyone is half naked and I love it! I exaggerate with half naked, but I love being back in a place that is not so conservative when it comes to clothing. In TN my gym did not allow belly buttons to show, not even bikinis in the pool. I found that excessive and ridiculous.
I don’t take offense to what you said, so don’t worry about that, but I do wonder are you judgng those girls and making assumptions? What I meant by teens not really understanding was not understanding how boys all want to have sex. I really don’t think most girls at that age really understand what is in the heads of boys. Girls get duped, pressured into things, and believe untruths all the time. My neice used to turn her waist band on her shorts so they were short short when she was 6. Her tooshie was practically hanging out. Once, when I was telling her to unroll them I asked her if she thinks she is Brittany Spears and she said yes. She doesn’t understand the “sexiness.”
Believe it or not I was a teen at one time, and I remember it very well. I wanted to look good, I liked the attention and compliments, and I worked in fashion. I was not trying to attract men for sex.
