Welcome to Gaia! ::

A few days a go I was invited to go to a party. The party was at a simple night club. I went and when I stepped in I felt immediately overdressed. It wasn't like I was in a suit or anything but all the other girls were wearing tube tops and booty shorts or way to low cut shirts and jeans that where WAY to tight. The point is, is that have the whole female gender decided to become hookers and sluts? Opinions please?

Thank You

Do you mean to say "Has The World Really Come to This?" I ask because the title actually says "Has the world really can to this..." It's just a bit confusing...
If you want a social statement on that caliber, just look around at Halloween. It seems like anymore, for most girls, it's just an excuse to dress like a complete skank with some sort of theme tacked on.

s**t happens. People are what they are.

Does it really bother you though? Sure its a sad state of our society, but if you don't like the scene, don't go there. Night clubs are for those kinds of people, that's how they started. They were areas to do illicit activities. Its for a visceral and sexual means to an end. That's why they're dressed like that, its advertisement.

This line:



Does not in any way say that to me. This line to me seems to infer that the previous statement (women dressing in skimpy clothing) isn't just restricted to the night club, but is how the whole of women everywhere dresses, apparently. If it was meant to be about the expectation placed on women to dress this way in this situation, I'd sort of expect to see that mentioned instead of the overarching claim the entire female gender does something without a qualifier (in this case, doing said something in a night club). That wasn't clear in the OP's post, at least for me. I apologize for any misconceptions, but that's why I reacted the way I did.

I can see how you would take it that way and perhaps I'm completely wrong, but I'm just going on a more literal interpretation (and particularly the "the whole female gender" part of that line) of the post.

But now I feel like I've gotten way to analytical and spoiled the mood sweatdrop

Here's a twist of an opinion on the general outlook of women and beauty and everyone in this whole damn world:

As a whole, we strive to be accepted by our own. (In a general sense, please don't go overboard with this one) Because most of our popular figures in our society and the way our culture is bending (Like a lot of sex and drug music), we can't help but pick up on the extremely sexual vibe. It's everywhere and hard to miss. This is one of the reasons for the dress, because we are dressing to the attitude of our world. Sadly, not everyone is attracted to each other, and that alone causes discomfort. I for one can't stand seeing people in small, tight clothing.
(Unless it's a simple muscle shirt on a guy. Come on XD)

Here's something else that might help you understand: Our world is constantly evolving, especially our culture. Twenty years ago it was baggy but small clothing. Or just plain spandex. That was frowned upon, or taken too sexually.
Years and years ago there were multiple cultures that were clad in little clothing, like southern tribes of people. This was not for sexual reasons but possibly because they didn't have the clothing.
I'm not saying that our people today SHOULD go around with little to no clothing, but I will say you have to look at it another way than just "That's wrong".

Of course, I find it completely unacceptable unless it's in a certain scene or environment. Certain clubs and parties of course. EVERY event has a certain attire. The problem lies in when people don't quite notice when the attire is acceptable and not acceptable in certain environments.

As for the question of what to wear to the club? Heck, I always wore jeans and a dress-style shirt. Everything covered, and room for pockets. <- efficient.
