Men commenting on how women dress? Women commenting on how men dress?

[cider float 2,539]

Do you think it's right for men to comment on how women dress and right for women to comment on how men dress? I would say there is nothing wrong with either case as we all recognize these garments, cosmetics and jewelry as they are and how they all fit into places. There's nothing weird or wrong about this. Men do recognize what women put on or not and women also feel the same way about men. Also men aren't the only ones that oggle women's boobs, women oggle women's boobs and this doesn't make them lesbians. We all just notice different shapes and sizes it's not rocket science, it's common mammalian sense.

People comment on how people dress?

 

And I thought this was only preparation for formal functions.

I live in an area where noone cares about what other poeple dress as long as it's not super weird or anything. Anything adidas is normal. Hooray for slavic people.

I think it's fine, just as long as those comments don't turn into harsh criticisms.

There’s nothing wrong with commenting on how someone is dressed. People will comment on anything and everything they see so why should fashion choice be any different? Lots of people dress specifically to draw attention, and those who don’t would likely be less of a magnet for comment anyway. There isn’t any issue in either case.

Anyone who sees something wrong there is clearly sexist by any definition.

Complimenting? Sure that’s fine. Unless you’re my friend and I’m asking, you can keep the criticism on my looks to yourself.

Nothing wrong with having personal taste. But I think people tend to judge others on appearance beyond just "I don't like that look" and insinuate or outright state judgments about one's social status, wealth, upbringing, culture and other things, and that's absolutely not OK.

Personally I think people should mind their own damn business.

If you’re just complimenting and not being rude then there’s nothing wrong with it

That’s the truth, Dreamy.

Depends as long as it isn't sexist or just like you should dress more like this or whatever. Although I would say people in general too.

I think commenting on how someone dresses of the opposite sex can be somewhat useful. However, that does depend on the context as in sexual remarks typically would be considered inappropriate. To be fair you need to realize everyone has their own preferences as such there are women who will comment you on how you look great and there are also others that will say you know or rather recommend you certain attires that would suit you. One such story I have of myself, I was sitting at a table with a girl wearing a sweater I rarely had on I wasn't sure if it was too formal so I put it on and she commented that it looked great on me so that's what I did I would dress in it more often. Then another girl I was talking to, talked to me about her preference in regards to hair styles so you really can learn a lot from listening. You may think of it as criticism but I prefer to think of it more as just them speaking their mind. Such as when you say to a girl that she has beautiful eyes or that her top is stunning essentially we constantly communicate with each other our preferences.
