Teen Clothing to Slutty? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

CheersChild4life · 08-01-2004, 06:29 PM

My friend and I were sitting at my table reading the paper when an article comes up on teen fashions today. All it was, was a bunch of people calling teenage girls slut. My friend and I were absolutely outraged! I'm a teenager and I where some of the fasions they were talking about (low-rise jeans, and tight shirts) and I'm not a slut. It's what I ware not who I am. Clothes reflects your personality, but you can't base a person on that. I'm sorry but it just really made me made that they could go of calling us sluts.

Oh I hate that! My friends tell me I dress like a slut all the time. It's annoying as hell. Just because I wear mini skirts, tight shirts, and low-rise jeans doesn't mean I'm a slut.

Exactly what defines slutty fashion?

Unfortuneatly people have trouble with the difference between having confidence in yourself and being a "slut". It does piss me off sometimes. But there are some girls my age who wear those clothes and feel the need to flirt with every guy on the planet.

Well in the paper it's says slutty clothes are low rise jeans, leather and lepord skirts, and shorts with word on the but.

Some people won't be satisfied unless all teenage girls are dressed like nuns.

Well the clothes themselves aren't slutty, it's how you present yourself that makes a person a slut.

Well, when I walk around the mall nowadays, seriously the lil kiddies dress like whores and theyre all talking on their cellphones acting all sexy. Theyre 14 years old! If I ever wore those things at 14, my parents wouldve sent me to a convent. Its one thing to wear nice sexy clothes, and its another thing as to dress like Britney Spears. What Britney wears on stage is a costume. And Im not saying low-rise jeans are 'slutty'. Im talking about the whole package. 14 year olds should dress like 14 year olds, and lay off the thick makeup. Then again, if I had a body like Britney, Id probably be wearing the same (lack) of clothes as she does. And what Krynan said is true- its how you present yourself in the clothes.

And its sad because older guys get the wrong idea then they get all freaked out when one of them checks them out.

Theyre being very prudish.

I agree completely. I have these combat boots, and when I wear them I'll wear them with pants or STOCKINGS and a good length skirt, yet people always say that they're so slutty. They're not stillettos, they're combat boots. I guess people see knee high lace up boots and just write them off as slutty, it's annoying, b/c I'm not dressed that way.

Grr...people annoy me.

THANK YOU....My thoughts exactly. It's sad how all the clothes those days for kids are like that. The fashion industry is trying to sexualize children so they'll be dressed up like little adults. It's sickening. It shouldn't be happening. There HAS to be more choices in clothing than just all those damn low-rises and tight shirts...and for God's sake, get the damn word-on-the-ass pants off the freakin' shelves! They shouldn't be around!

They're considered slutty because they make older men lust after young kids dressed like that, even if it wasn't the kid's intention to do so. Think about it.

If I had left the house dressed the way so many kids are dressed today, my mom would have grounded me.

And really....Nobody wants to see your freaking plumber's crack. Pull up those pants already.

Kids don't NEED to be dressing up like adults -- they should just enjoy being kids...they only get to do this for 18 years. They have the rest of their lives after that to be an adult...so really, dressing revealing should be limited to when they become adults. Just don't worry about it at all....IMO.

I know what you guys are say and I agree. People my age shouldn't be wearing short skirts(with no underwear which is popular at my school now) that show things when they walk. I don't wear low rise jeans or super tight shirt, but most of my friends do and they don't present themselves slutty(besides this one girl I know). I just don't like that people are calling us little whores when really we just aren't.
