Do Women Use Panty Lines To Flirt?

[Laurel]

I haven't said all red lipstick equals want to attract all men.

But yes, you wear it to be attractive

Absolutely. I agree with you 110%.

As for the OPs question - whether women wear sexy clothes to flirt: my answer remains that you should never assume that a sexy-dressing woman you don't know is doing anything for your benefit. If you assume that and act on your assumptions, you might get slapped/insulted/beat up by her boyfriend/husband/etc.

So bitchy! Between this and your knowledge of chick's zines, you're starting to worry me.

Ha! Snatching this one!

Careful that you don't scrape against any truths he prefers to not admit. There's barnacles clustering there and you could cut yourself!

She knows I'm right...hence the red dress/red lipstick reply and JAJ's boner.

Kudos to Riles (again) for her truth-telling.

And Riles hasn't at any point said that the OP should assume that sexy women he doesn't know are dressing for the benefit of strangers.

There are risks inherent whenever a man tries to fathom a woman's intentions.

Red lips, even reasonably intelligent guys make assumptions.

Conversation with the guy:
"Nice photo but why are you wearing lipstick?"
"I am not, have you ever seen me put on lipstick?"
"No. Drinking red Powerade?"
"No. What color are my lips when you watch me sleep? What color are my lips after I shower, wash my face and brush my teeth?"
"That color, but I thought that was because you are into me"
"I am into you, but I doubt it would affect my lips when I am dead asleep"
"Oh so that is just the color of your lips?"
"arrggh...look at my baby pictures again..."

Are women so clued into the every detail that they know that seeing panty lines drives some dudes crazy so they dress so we can see them?

Does anyone else notice and find this super hot? Thong or regular?

Yes. We know what boys want and provide it when its in our best interest ...

“The evidence favors the view that women have worked to stifle each other’s sexuality because sex is a limited resource that women use to negotiate with men, and scarcity gives women an advantage,”

Nope, I didn't.


Now that being said, I kind of hate the threads that become a podium for which women argue that their selection choices in behaviour (appearance is a behavioural choice) are in no way influenced by their desire or lack of, to enhance themselves to the appreciation of the masses.

We enhance because we are naturally inclined to want to look our best, for both ourselves - because it makes us feel good - and for the masses - because it makes us feel good. (the feel good sensation derived from each does not have to be the same). To argue that we don't do this with full awareness is just...silly to me. However it does not mean that by making these choices, we are welcoming or encouraging (at all times) any lewd comment, gesture or thought by others (men).

I am pro awareness at all times that what I put out there for the public eye may NOT be interupreted the way I intend...AND that my feathers don't need to be ruffled just because my message was falsely read. Afterall, he/she/they are the ones with the reading problem, but I will endevour to keep my messages clear.

I get that you aren't arguing with me on this subject but I can't help but to read your second paragraph as a bash on the fact that I have a problem with the perceptions of random strangers.

Have you ever personally felt threatened by someone because they thought it was their right to harass you regarding your manner of dress or the shape of your body? Have you ever been walking down a street when some guy decides to shout at you, first it's kind of endearing and a little flattering but then it turns frightening when he gets angry because you didn't respond in the manner he wanted you to?

Somehow, some way, that man got it into his head that he is owed a reaction to his words. That you dressed in a way that drew his attention to your ass and now it's your duty to compensate him with your attention.

My soapbox is regarding how that perception came to be.

 

[Sugareee]

I do Not use panty lines to flirt. But I do attend to my appearance with full awareness that I will be looked at. I like to look nice for myself and I like to look nice for others for myself. Sometimes the "other" is someone specific and sometimes no one in particular. I like being noticed and appreciated. I didn't always like being noticed. But that was when I didn't feel good about myself (mostly highschool years when I was 6' and 120 lb's).

With my height I can't avoid being noticed. And ya---when eyes fall on me, i want to be found attractive. And if that inspires a audible hoot from admirers, i hold myself a little taller and feel a little sexier.

I don't need it. I like it. It's just the way it is. I find no disrespect in it. It's a woman's world if she knows how to work it...

Being rude or threatening is a different subject.

It's not a bash. But maybe instead of trying to figure out the ways and means of why some men think the way they do (this is really rather easy to figure out - our media has sent mixed messages since the time there were messages to send), you could figure out a way to disengage your personal feelings when the individual really isn't worthy of them.

Yes, I have been on the receiving end of inappropriate behaviour and at times frightening behaviour. Every time it has happened, my first thought is, "have I encouraged this some how and if I have, let me rectify that immediately if I can" When I eliminate that possibility, then I move to acceptance that not everyone is going to behave as I think they should or even within socially accepted norms. Feeling put out because he misread the message is pointless and a waste of my time.

If you feel the need to blame someone for your hot ass...

You could blame Revlon, I suppose.

Or Spanx.

Or Chanel.

Or blame yourself for putting your ass on display.

Or blame the men who like your ass.

But to be fair, it's really a bit of all of that....

You know Matty, panty lines don't do much for me. But, when she takes those lacy undies and stuffs them in my shirt pocket, I smile.

I've been wearing this stuff since 1998.

Why?

Because chixdiggit.

Wherever I go, women want to sniff me...the stuff just smells sexy on me.

Do I get angry at the ugly ones for wanting me?...or resent the effect my scent has on women?

Hell no...that would be stupid...and hypocritical.

Trust that a couple posts from the male population of GB could say in a few short words what I spent the last hour typing. Dammit....and I really should have been sleeping too.
