I thought I would chime in.
I find when the belly button is an outie (outy?) that is ugly, and sometimes when pregnant the belly button starts to pop out. I don’t want to see that. I don’t want to see it naked, and I don’t want to see it in tight fitting clothing. I’m not saying women “should” care about what I want to see, I am just telling you I find it unattractive.
If someone is showing their belly grow in social media, have at it. That is completely different to me than walking around town.
I like that the styles for pregnant women do offer a choice not of tighter fitting clothing, along with the old fashioned looser fit to cover the bump. Some women carry of the tighter fit incredibly well and look beautiful. One girlfriend of mine looked amazing in her bathing suit at 6 months. She was obviously pregnant, but the suit look perfect on her. It was a tank style and covered everything, but fit to her skin like any other bathing suit would.
As far as overweight women, at the beach and swimming pool I am all a-ok with some cellulite showing. I don’t think anyone should worry about having to be all covered up at a place meant for sun bathing and swimming. As far as mini small bathing suits, I don’t like too skimpy even on a thin girl. A regular bikini fine. If it is a topless beach even topless I am fine, but I don’t like thong swimsuits, or a barely covered crotch on the sides or top.
My dad basically look pregnant, lol, and he wears a bathing suit. My husband says he is a Volkwagen. Awful I know.
Aside from swimsuits, regular clothing and overweight people, I think sometimes they look ridiculous with rolls of fat hanging out, but it doesn’t drive me crazy. I don’t usually notice unless the clothes are very skimpy, or if it is a young girl (under 22 years old) because I notice her weight more than anything and it is depressing to me such young girls can be so heavy.
Overall, in my opinion, people can wear whatever the hell they want as long as they don’t border on disrespecting people. I think be properly covered at school, church, and at your grandmother’s house. Whatever those places prefer as a dress code.
As far as people having good taste—many don’t. Many don’t understand looking sophisticated at all. So many men like a slutty look and don’t see it as trashy, they see it as feminine. Even many women don’t understand the difference between sexy and slutty, let alone looking sophisticated. As far as dressing in a conservative way, a woman can be sufficiently covered and still look feminine and sexy.
My husband would be fine if I wore something low cut and a mini short skirt, even to an office party of his. His taste in clothing for women is overpowered by his testosterone. I find it dissappointment, although a very minor dissappointment. I would have expected him to have a little more class. It still shocks me after 23 years. He notices fat women and comments if their rolls of fat are hanging out or if their clothes are ridiculously tight. I have never heard him comment about how a pregnant woman dresses ever. I never thought about that before.
