Why I'm More Attracted to Women Who Dress Conservatively

Hey guys! With the results of poll here is the take as promised. I got so close to equal response for two takes I decided to do something different. This take was most requested by men. I will be writing the one most girls chose later today.

First things first I have to make obligatory credits for the voters:

@LouisvilleGirl826 (Huh I wonder if she actually lives in Kentucky. Maybe she knows my ex-fiance :P ) @Fathoms77 @Spiorad_Aisce The rest are anons or didn't comment so I don't know they're usernames. I'm sure they'll find their way here.

So let's look at why I find women who dress conservatively attractive shall we?

First we need to determine what a woman who dresses conservatively even looks like.

Why I'm more attracted to women who dress conservatively

Jeans + shoes + T-Shirt = conservative.

Women, when men say they want conservative they mean that. Not this...

Why I'm More Attracted to Women Who Dress Conservatively

That's Amish for those wondering. That isn't attractive girls. You know that, I know that. That's not what men want you to look like when they say "Dress conservatively"

The want you to look like this...

Why I'm More Attracted to Women Who Dress Conservatively

That's what we mean by conservative. It's really not that hard to accomplish. If you look like this...

Why I'm More Attracted to Women Who Dress Conservatively

...You may attract more attention but then you can't complain about only being seen as a sex object. That's why I say "If you dress like a slut prepare to get treated like one" this particular model isn't going to be seen as a person. She's advertising her body as something to be desired. Therefore people are going to desire it. They aren't going to enjoy her body and personality equally because to me dressing like this screams "I slept with every boy over the age of 14 in a 10 mile radius!"

Now don't get me wrong, I like to look at women but I find the conservative more attractive. Some of you who came here for an opinion from me instead of a brief lesson in social misconceptions this is the part you're here for!

So why do I find women who dress conservatively more attractive?

1: It shows self respect and confidence

There's nothing more sexy to me than self respect. Enough said really. I can't honestly see Girl 2 having high self esteem and I wouldn't believe she would remain faithful. I can see Girl 1 being confident, successful, loyal, mature, and parent material. Girl 2? Not so much.

2: It gives an air of mystery

Let's face it girls. When someone sees you or you see someone else you judge them by appearance. It's not demeaning. It's not sexist. It's just how people work. When the girls are hanging out of your top and your shorts are so short they should be considered underwear it's not as exciting. You can already basically see everything. When she's standing in Wranglers or Silvers and a blouse or T-Shirt on with a beer in her hand? I know what I want to see but she's dressed conservatively so I go nuts. Mentally undressing her then dressing her back up before I go talk to her.

3: She immediately looks like you can bring her home

Get your mind out of the gutter! I mean bring her home to meet the parents. Contrary to popular belief men care about family a LOT more than we let on. Usually more than women. Having your Mother and Father approve of your girlfriend is make or break for most men. A woman who doesn't walk around half naked with her ass and tits shaking looks like a more viable candidate for passing mum and dads testing.

So how do YOU dress Jarhead? Can you live up to your own expectation?

Some of you might be thinking "He's throwing a lot of things out there and he seems to expect a lot. Can he meet his own standard?" The short answer?

Why I'm More Attracted to Women Who Dress Conservatively

You tell me :P

(Yes, yes I can meet my own standard. That's me in the picture if you couldn't tell)

Anyways guys, this is me stating my preference. I'm not trying to speak for all men or start some kind of flame war over this. Just stating my preferences and giving my reasons for having them.

Cheers!

  • I love the way you wrote this take. I was skeptic when I first saw the title then I really started to like it. I like the way you explained what means conservative to you and you explained why you liked it more, with valid points, reminding us that is YOUR preference.
    Besides being objective about this myTake, I totally agree with you. I can understand why a conservative style is more attractive, I am myself attracted more to people who don't choose such revealing clothes, well, maybe not quite conservative, cause I like different styles but definitely not revealing (as the girl above).
    I think it is appropiate to wear crop tops as long as you pair them with regular jeans and I think shorts are great as long as you pair them with regular t-shirts (assuming that nor the crop top or shorts are exaggerated) I agree that choosing to reveal too much skin is actually a sign of seeking attention and approval. Confidence will always be the sexiest accesory a man or a woman could wear (y)

    • Everyone seems to think I'm trying to dictate how women dress. I'm glad to see at least some women aren't trying to play the victim here.

  • Its like the forbidden fruit, you have to work to undress her, and also shows she's probably not a slut.
    That amish girl in your picture is hot, shame about her shitty dress sense.

    • Amish girls dress how their man tells them to. I find it questionable but the Amish have been around for thousands of years and they don't seem to have the same problems the rest of us have.

  • I actually agree with you but god that's an awful outfit. I like to do something in between. I like wearing a tight dress that shows off my shape but that doesn't show off my actual skin. I'll wear a body flattering dress, with a hoodie and leggings lol. The t-shirt, jeans thing is a huge no for me.

    • THIS^ You know it 😉

    • THIS IS ME. flattering dress, but just enough mystery still.

    • My boyfriend likes me in form fitting maxi dresses. I have a lot for the summer and they're honestly very figure flattering but you're all covered which is great. The jeans and top thing is a bit cliche and outdated.

  • I actually agree with this a lot.

    "You may attract more attention but then you can't complain about only being seen as a sex object. ... this particular model isn't going to be seen as a person. She's advertising her body as something to be desired. Therefore people are going to desire it."

    • It's not something you're supposed to agree with. You aren't supposed to take it as advice. My word it not law. Don't demonize my preference. Besides I couldn't give a fuck what Americans look like. I'm Canadian. I don't care what Americans look like or what their women prefer to wear. My preference is my own. No need to get offended.

    • woah okay calm down their bud

  • Nah, I rather have a woman that flaunts her body and shows some skin. :)

  • Exactly.

    I dont get why women think men's idea of conservative is dressing like a nun.

    • @ThatJarHead You realise he agrees with you right?

    • @Cosytoasty I'm pointing out it's not meant to be taken as advice. It's not advice and shouldn't be taken that way.

  • Nice MyTake! :)

  • well it's fine like that but i think a dress up is much more attractive, i don't mean crop tops or shorts, this i actually casual wear it only shows much skin i mean well maybe uncle boots, nice shirt, accesories and stuff like that

  • I think I understand wear your coming from, but it's somewhere naive. No offense, but you're not concerned with the amount of skin covered or shown, you're concerned with a STYLE of dress that portrays a more conservative person. I garantee you that girl does not wear denim and a t-shirt when she goes to the beach, or when it's pushing 100 degrees outside. Are you going to call her a slut if she swims in a bikini? Or wears a tank top on a hot day? My god the mystery of dem shoulders is just ruined😱 Oh noes I saw her thighs im gonna blow in my shorts😵

    Trust me guy you've got a problem with the fashion, not the skin. If you can't help but see a woman as an object if she's not always covered to that specific degree then I think you might have a problem. And I know this will come across as condescending but It's a distinction that just seems too obvious to miss ok?

    • I understand what you're saying. But the beach, and 100 degree days are not what he was talking about, and you know it.. Nor did he say he would spontaneously ejaculate in his shorts at seeing thighs and shoulders. That was completely inappropriate. He was just saying, in general, he likes a conservative look when there's a weather permitting choice, and why.. He wasn't even slut shaming either. Slut shaming is when you make someone in particular, feel like shit for being promiscuous. It has nothing to do with making a general statement, about the outfit of a hypothetical woman. Nobody is a slut for the way they dress. But people, men and women do dress in a sleazy way sometimes. I don't like it either. It doesn't make them, or I, a bad person. Just different. BUT finding oneself more comfortable and excited, talking to people of either sex, when they aren't highlighting their sexual parts just for no good reason, is just fine. It's just as fine as not caring about it at all.

  • Well often terms less is more and modesty is hot, if stuff is covered it leaves more to the imagination and creation then when everything is just out in the open for the world to see. Just an artists point of view of it.

    • That's a fair statement. I believe I said something similar in the take.

    • Yeah I do recall that.

  • I like girls who dress sporty and casual, that basically fits in at least two of the pictures in here (I don't mind tight and revealing clothes). I like girls in jeans, shorts, sweatpants, t-shirts, crop tops, tank tops, sneakers etc.
    However, I dislike slutty style (high heels, stockings, makeup and stuff like that).
    Very good Take.

    • Thanks man!

    • You're welcome

    • how are stockings slutty lol

  • because you're one of us decent guys who are a little old fashioned and like a person who covers up instead of showing everyone their tits and ass

    • There's nothing wrong with being old fashioned but I'm far from old fashioned. I'm just observant and I wouldn't want to date someone who looks like a stripper.

  • What are parameters used to decide whether or not the outfit is slutty?

    • It's not something you're supposed to agree with. You aren't supposed to take it as advice. My word it not law. Don't demonize my preference. Besides I couldn't give a fuck what Americans look like. I'm Canadian. I don't care what Americans look like or what their women prefer to wear. My preference is my own. No need to get offended.

    • Awwwe you are taking it in wrong way 😞 It was a genuine question and not rhetorical one. PS- I am neither American nor Canadian

    • Because these things vary from culture to culture. What is conservative for you may be slutty for some others...

  • Don't agree with this take, but I guess you can't help what you're attracted to. And I don't agree that covering up more skin and dressing like a preteen evokes more confidence, as most women who are comfortable with their bodies will tend to show it off more, whether that be with tight outfits or showing more flesh. And there's nothing wrong with that.

    • As I said this isn't something you're supposed to disagree or agree with me on. This is merely my preference.

    • nope confidence is irrelevant here , it has no impact of what a woman dresses, i know plenty of confident girls who wear jeans and a shirt and look just as hot while i know some who dont dare to raise their eyes or look into yours yet wear so revealing clothes you starte to wonder "did she even by anything new in the past 10 years?" keep in my unlike girls guys dont hide sex, so if a guy knows a guy is not quality he will tell his buddies and almost every guy who asks him about her, and usually girls wearing slutty outifts get asked about a lot and thats why guys are after them not cause they're confident but cause they're easy and everyone knows it.

  • I don't care what you think

    • Then you shouldn't be on a site where opinions are written to answer questions

    • @Dave20154 What question are you answering, exactly? What you find attractive in a woman? And you think everyone on here really cares about that? Right, got it.

  • Personally, I don't give a shit what a woman wears as long as she's happy.

  • Oh well I like to look feminine and attractive rather than dressing like a mom of 6 who's given up on life and haven't had sex in 9 years, yes 9. Also Im fairly sure most girls don't actually give a hoot how you'd like them to dress because, surprise, women don't dress for men.

    • How many times do I need to say dress how you like I don't care? Why do you need to get offended?

    • Because you are telling women they are less worth if they don't live up to the preferences of one individual, as if everyone should base the way they dress and act based on what you like.

    • Where did I say that huh? Tell me. Where in this whole take did I ever EVER say someone is less valuable because they don't me my standard? Did you even read it?

  • You can dress mondestly without looking like you're late for tee time

    • I still don't see what golf has to do with dressing conservatively. That picture is just an example. If I wanted to show how I personally think all women should dress I'd use a picture of my eldest sister but for her privacy I didn't.
