Cap Women: Are you accused of dressing too modest?

I have been accused of not dressing sexy enough by a friend who was giving me a hard time just for fun. I don't dress like a nun, but I don't dress like a two bit slut either. A small amount of cleavage is okay, but I don't want my girls hanging out. You know what I mean?

This conversation has made me think... is this something Cap related? Or is it just me?

Oh, btw, it was a aqua man (friend only) that told me this. Maybe that had something to do with it. hahahahaha!

yes.

Yeah. I won't lie, sometimes I have a hard time wearing something where my arms are even out let alone showing a bit of cleavage. I'm getting a little better though. It's just for some reason I feel naked wearing certain clothes.

Makes me feel self conscious!

Anyone who has the audacity to accuse a friend of not dressing "sexy" enough is an asshole and usually has a very ignorant and narrow view on society and others. Talk about feeding into the hype...

I had a Scorpio guy tell me that once. He was also the biggest cheater, player, and clearly objectified women. It was pretty ridiculous.

Nothings wrong with it, as long as you feel comfortable.

Oh, I asked Aqua if he would allow his teenage daughters to dress like that...."uh...uh...uh.." LOL!!!!

I get grief almost everyday from the hubby for not wearing anything but t-shirts and jeans, even went as far as trying to gradually hide all of them until they're gone. I've worn girlier shirts that show cleavage before but I never feel comfortable in them.

It was more like "why don't you dress sexier?"
Me: why?
Him: You'd attract more men.
Me: I don't want to attract shallow men.

Just a conversation. Oh,this guy is a player, but he's one of my really good friends. Just wouldn't date him. lol!

LoL!

I don't dress sexy at work. But I can. I do like dressing sexy classy. But I usually dress modestly due to comfort and to be taken seriously in a mans world.

And whats dressing classic sexy?

Awwww Cowpucher, you just want to look at a bunch of half naked ladies!!! 🙂

See, that right thhere is why I usually clash with Libras lol.

I view it the same way. When you throw that logic at them, they start backpedaling a bit. I mean really, if you think a woman NEEDS to change her comfort level and who she is to attract a man, she'd be attracting him for all the wrong reasons.

I WILL say this, though. When I do dress a little sexier than usual (and my idea of sexy is not most! lol), I do feel better and prettier and sexier and flirtier, more feminine.

I've never been told I dress too conservative. Although, I won't go out in public looking skanky and NEVER felt comfortable going to a bar/club in anything less than jeans. I like my turtlenecks in the winter, sometimes with like a half zip mock turtleneck sweater over top to dress it up a little, and a pair of jeans. In the summer it's usually more of a dressy "T" whether with shorts or jeans - although, working in the yard when it's 90 out, I'll go with a tank. At work I tend to look sexy professional I suppose, nice classy shoes in the summer or, in the fall/winter, I'll sport some calf length boots, my skits tend to be mid thigh (I'm short, so I don't care for anything below the knee), but no low cut tops and I ALWAYS have a business jacket on, even if I dress down and go to work in jeans I wear a business jacket. I've been accused of being a little librarian lookish as well - in a good way LOL

I dress down when I've got classes...there's nothing I hate more than unwanted attention when I'm trying to concentrate on my work. But it does not help at all. When I dress down...it's like there's twice as much male attention as when I dress sexy!!! Okay, thats not true. But it's like I try to just be conservative, but there's always some dude thinking he got game trying his luck! It drives me insane.

When I go to work, I show a bit more skin 🙂 cz I can lol

When I go out with my girls, im dressed like a slut...lol cannot believe I just said that, but there you have it.

When I've got a date with my bf,I dress to kill. Its like a cute n sexy typa look. light peach, floral dresses typa thing.

but it actually just depends on my mood. If i feel like wearing something sexy I will. Dont matter where I go

I just ran across this pic on her(Mashonda) twitter. She's a Cappie, and this is how I'd dress everyday if I could. Not sure if one would call this modest.

Ah well, the pic didn't show. Here's a link for it.

Ha! And my Aqua man thinks I dress too sexy/in-your-face! And believe me I don't. Image is very important to me and I dress for the occasion - backless top to a nightclub, modest cleavage dress to a wedding, sharp suits to the office.

Guess its the beholder's perspective.

The aqua guy that originally told me that even offered to go shopping with me last weekend! He said, "please get a new wardrobe, I'll even go with you". I refused. My bf wouldn't understand me shopping with another guy. lol!
