Paladin D Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 I don't mind women's shorts that go [b]right above[/b] the knee, but I really don't appreciate the [b]short shorts[/b]. Nor do I mind seeing a women's belly button, it's nice but it doesn't [b]"turn me on"[/b] sexually or anything of the sort. However it'll be wiser that they didn't show their belly button. No, I'm not a pervert , I'm just different. Really tight shirts should be out of the question, I agree with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladin D Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Oh question for the ladies... Is it ok for guys to wear tight shirts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikkan_hanil Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 I see Britney Spears appearal pretty...weak. I think it's stupid how not only women are showing off what should never beshown in public, but spreading it to our young generation... Personally, I have no problem with (regular) tank tops, but everything else gotta go. The bellybutton, the sleeves pulled back, the cleavage, the bootypants...all that... I have a thing for modest girls. I usually like long skirts or dresses... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voiciblanche Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 [quote name='Paladin D' date='Apr 8 2004, 05:01 PM'] Oh question for the ladies... Is it ok for guys to wear tight shirts? [/quote] Let's see. Well, if you analyze it, it's putting the female viewer (or, in some cases, male viewer, I suppose) in the occasion of sin. Most men that would choose to wear a tight shirt (and I don't mean fitted, neccesarily, I mean exceptionally tight) are doing so to show off their muscles. I haven't seen many lanky little men in tight shirts lately. So, anyway, if a big buff guy's walking around in a tight shirt, young women might be in the occasion of sin. So, to be on the safe side, I wouldn't reccomend tight shirts for anybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cesar624 Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 (edited) I hear a lot of people in here talking about how short shorts and cut off shirts are bad and not modest - but you also have to take culture into consideration. I'm Puerto Rican, and in Puerto Rico it tends to get PRETTY HOT. A lot (not all) people over there just dress with short shorts and cut off shirts. This isn't to be provocative or sexy, it's just to get away from the heat. Even old women over there wear shorts above the knee and sleeveless shirts. A lot of men over there like to sit on their lawns with their shirts off. I think it's not so much what you wear, but it's really what you're intending by wearing it. I disagree with not wearing something because you might turn someone on and they might sin. For all you know - baggy clothes might be a HUGE turn-on for some people. Realistically speaking, not many people are gonna be like "Oh, jeez, I better not wear this, I sure don't want anyone to lust after me and become sinful." NO - don't dress like unnecessarily skimpy - but if it's an extremely HOT day and you wanna stay cool - I don't see the problem with it as long as your not exagerrating (i.e. wearing something that more closely resembles floss than shorts. YES - I do disagree with those ppl who just dress to be sexually provocative - but their bad intentions have nothing to do with how I want to and do dress.

ilovechrist Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 [quote name='Lil Red Devil' date='Apr 6 2004, 10:51 AM'] Guys need to make sure they're not walking around shirtless, no tight shirts or tight jeans (I guess that's my generation showing! ) I know of several guys that wear an undershirt while swimming. It ain't much, but it's some. [/quote] um.. thats just WRONG.. WHY would any guy wear tight jeans nowadays.. ick! i suppose its what the guy intends to do with being shirtless, cuz i usually do that when it gets to around 80 out here... and swimming? true i don't know what would be going thru the girl's minds, but i definitely don't mean anything by not wearing an undershirt while doing jackhammers into the water.. but thats just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuCa Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I think both sexes have to be careful in what they wear. I am a female who believes women definitely need to do a 180 with their clothing selection nowadays. I can't even buy a pair of modest shorts in the stores! Therfore...I stick with jeans all year round. I hate this time of year! Walking on campus I almost wanna puke. Women do not know how to dress. They are like walking temptations to men- what they wear could easily turn a man to sin because of his thoughts. Of course, I am not a male so I don't know exactly what you all think...but from what i've read or heard this seems to be the case. My friend went to a lecture on soething like this and the guy said that if you wear a shirt and you poke it and it pops back out...its too tight (thats for the women!) Which I believe to be is true.. why attract a man to certain areas of your body. THey are yours so keep them for yourself. I definitely try to wear stuff that does not draw attention. Usually long pants, tshirt, no low necks, no back or belly buttons showing (NOT GOOD). If I do wear a skirt its down to my ankles. I even feel akward in skirts to my knees (i know they aren't bad but i just like the ankle ones!). This is something us young Catholic can work on. We need to set examples of modest dress! Thats just a few of my thoughts. I can't stand immodesty. It seriously sickens me. So put your clothes on! :ph34r: hehe If you are gonna spend so much money on clothing...at least buy something that will cover your body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qfnol31 Posted April 11, 2004 Author Share Posted April 11, 2004 [quote name='JuCa' date='Apr 10 2004, 09:53 PM'] I hate this time of year! Walking on campus I almost wanna puke. [/quote] Here in Texas it gets really bad. I feel bad for the girls cause many don't have anything on and it's barely even spring. I'm curious what they'll do in the summer...I don't wanna know. Actually, as I walk around, I'm now in the habit of looking down so that I don't see anything. It works really well. Plus I don't wear my glasses so I can't see anything bad. What's sad about all this? I go to a Catholic University... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janana8706 Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Ok, This is prolly way different from what people are saying, but my opinion on the guy's w/ tight shirts, I think a guy looks hot, if he has the body for the tight shirt, so for what we're saying here its prolly not a good idea, but it doesn't make me think "oo guy...tight shirt... i want him.." sorta thing (yes, I know thats prolly not the best words to use but newayz) thats just my point of view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
