***A well done LBD (Little Black Dress) can cover everything* **

Everything?

As seen in Saudia Arabia.

David Attenborough narration:

“Here we see two groups of humans, a female group and a male group. As part of their courting rituals, the females adopt more colorful plumage, in an effort to attract the attention of the males, as well as in competition with the other females for male attention. For their part, the males are clustered together, their attention unfocused, and as much as anything resemble of troop of bored chimpanzees in their behavior.

“One rather frustrated female is unable to compete with the more colorful females, so in frustration plucks out some of her plumage. This can cause a chain reaction of plumage plucking among some of the females, until they are bare, unless some of the older adults intervene to stop it.

“Eventually, one male finally notices the gaudy display of one or more of the females, and the other males pick up on this, so the group now less resembles chimpanzees than a pack of lions watching a group of gazelle.

“The younger of the females and males, though not yet ready to mate, will sometimes try to mimic the behavior of the older ones, and this can cause some confusion. But if some member of the opposite gender approaches a young one as a prospective mate, an adult may violently drive them off.”

Modesty is good for women. It has anthropological reasons behind it, mainly less date raping.

Actually, an intelligent woman can wear burlap and be attractive if she can get 10 minutes.

Yes they can!

***you see the great divide. Not a pretty sight.***

My sister-in-law and her husband saw a woman do that. She bent over, revealing a white thong, with a two inch streak of brown on it.
My SIL had to bit e her tongue, and her husband had to leave the line to keep from bursting out in laughter.

I think a lot of it depends on context, intent, the appearance/physique of a given person, behavior, etc. Some people seek a flatline, objective standard; if a bikini isn't okay for church, how can it be okay for the beach, and so forth. But like I said context is key, within reason (ie being butt naked really can't be justifed, whereas a "skimpy" jogging outfit could be depending on circumstances, and another outfit for a different context that covers the same amount as the jogging suit may not be appropriate).

The maxim that a women should dress so that the first thing an average man looks at is your face, is still sound.

Also, the kind of bait you see (largely) determines the kind of fish you catch.

And when a man sees sexually beautiful female flesh, then don’t look twice. I try not to.
