It’s hard for a woman to know what exactly to wear to deflect unwanted attention from men. Man Repeller Leandra Medine's pioneering attempts didn’t exactly take. Luckily, Huffington Post editors have asked the male fashion geniuses in their lives to complete the sentence “I hate when women wear…” According to their survey, men hate when women wear beanies, floppy hats, hair bows, open-side shirts, oversize sweaters, shoulder pads, peplums, bandeau bikinis (“they just make your shoulders look like a linebacker”), bright lipstick, heavy eye makeup, fake nails, bangles, pointy-toed shoes, wedge sneakers, ultra-high heels, fold-over ankle boots (“it looks like the shoes have), high-waisted jeans, high-waisted shorts, high-waisted skirts (“it lacks a certain degree of subtlety”), pantsuits (“you’re a woman, not a man”), drop-crotch pants (“really, any loose fitting pants,) and mullet dresses (“I just don't get it — where's the party? You are covering the back!"). The question is how to wear all of these things at once.

Cute girls, badly lit picture. The bunny is a nice touch.

But seriously ... you can reach your late 40s, wear a long dress and a long coat and a head covering and trail five or six kids after you. Men won’t ignore you, but they’ll all call you “Ma’am” or “Mami” and hold doors and fetch stuff down from the top of the Walmart shelves for you.

Hate denim capris on women. No woman looks good in them.

Might I suggest eBay for that cheap copy of some celebrity's engagement ring, or even a cheap ring that looks like a wedding band?

I know a woman who refers to them as pest control strips.

Those 1950's Era Cheerleader Outfits are Less Revealing and Yet More Sexy than anything Cyrus has done.

You mean like the USC Song Girls? That is sexy.

It *may* be....*First NoLady Michelle Obama is the new spokesperson for “Ho On The Go!”.
Ho On The Go is a clothing and accessories line created by Monica Lewinsky.*

It could be from one of her *favorite* designers.....not something one would normally see at J Crew.
