How to Dress So Basic Bros Leave You Alone
New York Magazine ^ | KAT STOEFFEL

Posted on 01/09/2014 7:05:12 PM PST by nickcarraway

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.

high-waisted jeans

WTF? I love it when chicks wear high-waisted (form fitting) 80's style jeans.

Admittedly, I've seen the movie "Pitch Perfect." I must say, I am quite the fan of that Anna-whatever-her-name-is-that-does-the-cup-thing and her black high-waisted jeans.

So far as the rest of the stuff mentioned, I either don't like it, or am proud to say I don't know what it is.

High-waisted jeans are way-sexy. Although, it is quite comical to watch girls wearing low rise jeans do the wiggle-shake-tug every couple of steps to keep their pants from falling down.

If pressed on the issue, I’ll deny watching that better than Christy denied knowing about the bridge closure. But over 13 million views? What am I doing wrong?

I hate when women wear…peplums,

I doubt any man has ever said the word "peplums" and even fewer could identify one.

4,611,198 + 1 views. ( I liked that one better than the first even though I didn’t see either of them)

Bad intel. Been hit on in a pantsuit and a bandeau bikini top.

The only surefire attention killer is a baby bump.

A woman wearing a mustache and maternity clothes would likely be safe from us brutes.
