Why do some girls wear revealing clothes and then get angry at unwanted attention?

Ah my bad.

Though there are a lot of hypocritical sentiments on this thread. Implying that it is only rude when men look.

Nah, I think it's just as rude when women do it. I also think it's equally avoidable, but that's besides the point.

I've never actually seen or heard of a woman getting angry because of a guy briefly checking them out. It's some made up scenario guys love to get worked up over. If it does happen it's very rare.

This.

Some people seem incapable (or, rather, are pretending to be incapable) of understanding the difference between a quick glance and staring full-on at someone for ages.

It's also funny how some guys take issue with the women's reactions to their acting creepily or unacceptably, as though it's the women's fault. It's like getting angry at Country B for counter-attacking Country A after Country A invaded it first for no good reason.

Nah, I don't care.

I see this on the internet all the time from men who presumably don't get out too much - this bizarre idea that if you're anything other than a Brad Pitt then those EVIL SLUTS will freak out if you so much as look at them. If a guy genuinely has recurrent problems with women reacting negatively to his attention then he shouldn't discount the possibility that he actually is being a creepy mother****er, because seriously, this stuff just doesn't happen in normal social situations.

I don't intend to offend anyone but why is it that many girls in today's society choose to wear revealing clothes (very short skirts, low neck tops etc.) and then get annoyed when perverted men in the street wolf whistle and try to harass them? Like today for example, I was at the mall and this girl started insulting this dude for 'staring at her breasts' when she chose to wear a low neck top? Surely, if she didn't want such attention, she wouldn't have worn that top? This isn't the first time i've witnessed something like that in public and just curious as to why some women act like this?

Have you ever considered the possibility that girls might like to dress for themselves, as opposed to seeking male attention. Girls like to feel good in their clothes, but equally don't want to be pursued by creepy men who like to objectify women. It all goes back to the "she was asking for it", misconception about rape. As a result of the patriarchy it is girls who are told to cover up and not attract attention, rather than the men being taught that objectification is wrong.

Because I think the top looks nice? To be honest, I feel more awkward about having my shoulders exposed, I have a few tops that are quite low, they don't show any cleavage (because there's not that much to show), but you can see my collarbone and stuff (and apparently collarbone fetishes are a thing?) but I don't really feel like I'm revealing much by wearing them because I've usually got a cardigan on as well. Also in summer I like to wear dresses and not wear tights because it's hot and if it's sunny in Britain and I can get away with it, you bet I'll take advantage. Doesn't mean I want to be treated like a sex object. Or if you're going to comment, do it tastefully, like "You have nice legs", not "Phwoar, I'd do her" kind of thing. Not that anyone's done that (as far as I know), but I wouldn't enjoy it if they did.

Also, for girls who've got larger breasts, it's pretty damn hard for them to wear anything other than turtlenecks without some kind of cleavage showing, so there's no need for people to act like they're just doing it for male attention, why can't they have nice clothes too?

and if you showed a person who was raping you this poster would they be likely to say "You're damn right there!" and walk away?

Lets try and stick to the topic of the thread eh?

I find your comment totally ignorant and disgusting, TBH. Read up on rape culture and victim blaming rather than opening your mouth about issues that conveniently don't affect you negatively in future.

No other victim-blaming culture exists around a crime the way it does around rape. Studies have shown that an alarming amount of guys would rape if it wasn't explicitly called rape:

It is not women who need to be told to change their behaviour, it is men, and the general societal attitude as evidenced here that "if women do this they can expect this and deserve it" also needs to change.

Ah, some men trying to silence women's voices on women's issues. How original.

Strong argument
