That's just overly concerned parents and jealous boyfriends.

But as a man, my ex-girlfriend had a veto on what I was wearing, even though it wasn't about my outfit being revealing obviously.

And at the office, while no one will tell me what I should wear, every women here have a strong opinion on what I wear, how I wear it and what I should wear (I work in an office with 90+% of women)

Haven't ever experienced a situation like that.

Because men are sexist asses who allow their dick to do way too much thinking. (me included)

I try to stop myself, I do, but when I see a women jogging / working out in tight wear, I think very naughty. Its wrong. I shouldn't and she shouldn't feel objectified by me attempting to not look or feeling compelled to enjoy her physical dimensions.

Then there is the difference that men, who are fit and good looking, enjoy being stared at. Which is why those men will wear tight shirts or "muscle shirts" (why are there no "titty shirts"?). But what if men picked up a common trend of wearing spandex all the time too? Clearly highlighting cock & balls. That has never been a thing as men are more self-conscious about our cock & balls (aside from private dick pics), but likely also because women are not predominately seduced by visuals.

That may actually be the root cause. Men and women are different in terms of sexual arousal. Men are stimulated predominately by physical stimuli such as visuals. Woman by mental stimuli such as emotion. i.e. women dress and wear make-up to attract men while men learn to be funny / witty / sly as the primary action.

So yes, woman should be allowed to do whatever they want without risk of any kind and to do this men, need to realize the have the capacity to control their own sexual stimuli and act respectfully.

One contradiction which always confused me is that it is both not ok to cat-call women while at the same time women want men to be outgoing and come to them to kick-off the conversation/being hit-on. Basically, a man has to know he'll fit under her mental pre-requisites before he can approach and hit-on her. (obviously I'm defaulted to cut out typical street cat-calling that is rude and belligerent)

Because men secretly want to wear womens clothing, but they are afraid because of breaking social norms, so they do the next best thing and try to tell women what to wear so they can see them in their favorite feminine outfits or they just try to deny the women any kind of nice or revealing clothes because they can't have them either.

I wore a skirt to school a few weeks ago. :P

Nobody on the train seemed to care.

wtf? men couldn't care less. it is the woman making the big deal about what she wears to feel better then other women.

Woman in general don't rape as often as man and wearing certain outfits is riskier than others. Also list is one of the seven sins so it might have something to do with that as well.

I see these conversations more in the internet than in real life... as a matter of fact, I don't even remember the last time that I was involved in a conversation about women's clothing in real life. Of course, that's my pov and maybe it's a issue in many places.

No one cares what women are wearing lol I don't get what this thread is all about
