On Provocative Clothing
It’s been generally accepted that women wear revealing clothing so long as its cleavage or leg. It’s socially acceptable for a woman to wear a mini skirt or short shorts as long as her ass isn’t showing. Same goes for for a woman wearing a low neck shirt. As long as there is no nipple, it’s cool. But the thing is, those are two assets I do not have. I have a nice stomach and a nice ass. But I seemed to be judged quite often when I’m bearing my stomach, and it’s extremely inappropriate to show a bit of ass cheek. Why must I hide my best assets when busty, leggy chicks can bare all?
UNFAIR. I WILL CONTINUE TO BARE MY MID-DRIFT UNTIL IT BECOMES SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE.
Outfit of the day. Time to get Shake Shack! I have such a bad craving.

I belly dance, I approve!
Go to belly dance boutiques and you can find some fun half shirts.
I’m not sure why we don’t accept showing our bellies. Maybe because its right above our crotch. I have to admit though, I think it’s distracting. This girl wore a crop top to my college class and I felt embarrassed for her. Perhaps because there was a big gap of skin between her top and her pants. Almost defeated the purpose of the shirt. It sends the wrong message but I think the photos you have above are just fine. I guess it depends on the setting. If you’re going to the beach its fine, but if you’re going to be around conservative people in a conservative environment, prepared to get judged. Also, you don’t need a crop top to show off your skinny stomach. If you wear any tight fitted shirt, everyone can see you petite you are =)!! No need to overcompensate with excessive skin.
Only girls judge other girls.
It looks fine. Where r pics of your other asset!
saranghae emoi!
I wish I had a nice stomach…lol
bare it all
hahahah you go girl
If you got it, flaunt it, but with class and dignity.
Nice watch, homie.
People are hating cause they’re jelly. If I had a nicer stomach I’d wear nothing but cropped tops.
nhin thay wa dep roi, neu show off best assets, chac anh sieu luon!
Trust me, exposing cleavage has very disappointing effects at times. Flaunt what you have girl.
i thought it’s acceptable a few years back when everyone’s bearing their mid’s.
I don’t think you’ll have any complaints from the guys
I, too, will continue to wear my mid-drift shirts!
Still working on the total package is better than relying upon one or two characters. People who cannot talk well in conversation is a shame. People who do not write blogs well is a shame. You could be terrible in Real life but be interesting in xanga, something that can be possible even after a long stint of terrible blogs.Looks like quite a fan club here, you rock.
I don’t date women who think they need to show off legs, cleavage or any other part of their body. What women say when they do that is, ”HEY! I’M A BIMBO! IF YOU I CAN DISTRACT YOU WITH MY BODY, MAYBE YOU WON’T NOTICE HOW EMPTY I AM!!”Lot of guys love to take advantage of bimbos. But it gets old after awhile.
AWW yeaaah http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKYyX3B0aXY
With a tummy like that, it’d be a crime NOT to show it I wish I had bared more skin when I was younger and had the bod. Take advantage of your youth fully!
@PrisonerxOfxLove - You and your dumb cat need to get back to the revelife chatboards. Stop hatin’ on this chick because she’s gorgeous and wouldn’t touch you in a million years. Cheers!
@coolmonkey - Lots of truth to that.
@phoebester - Women are drop dead gorgeous with all their cloths on. The idea that women have to dress like a slut to get male attention is degrading and totally unnecessary.The hate is all yours my dear. I should be able to express my opinion without some brainless ninny coming along and getting her condom tangled up in her pubic hair.
I have no problem with this.wow you are skinny.
cute, but skinny.
@ShimmerBodyCream - i should! i actually taught myself how to belly dance, so that should be fun~@amyha819 - i just feel that women can show off their cleavages so easily but stomach is so taboo. i just don’t understand.@coolmonkey - yes, we’ve discussed this.@cbr600 - hahahaha… perv .___.” lol@BenelliMan - hajima~~@passionate_kisses579 - just takes willpower~~@Konrado - hahahahah i wish!@suuperstar - omg ada… you’ve been so mia and on vacay!@Aloysius_son - true that.@fLiPgUy31O - thanks dude. lub my watch more than anything.@lovelybish - cropped tops have become my life. hahaha.@tictact0e0 - hahahah. neu anh sieu, em phai cuoi! hahaha.@mkazama - mhmmm~.@sf2slc - that is true! 90′s crop tops. but now i feel like people find it more taboo.@xsimplepleasuresx - hahah didn’t think sso~.@CaKaLusa - omg yay!@PPhilip - haha… well… people do like talking to me if you ask anyone…@PrisonerxOfxLove - i could defend myself, but doesn’t look like you would believe it anyway. i’m not a bimbo nor am i empty, i just like to be able to dress in a way that i find is most complimenting.@phoebester - i dread the day i can’t dress like this anymore. T__T.@SlackerSociety - i cannot tell if you mean skinny as a good thing or a bad thing…
Just cover the same things that men cover – everything else is sexist.
FYI it’s mid-riff
I say flaunt it!Why is it that when a girl shows her midriff she’s a slut, but a guy does it has no label?Why is it that when a girl shows her butt cheeks she’s cheap, but a guy who does it (well, if a guy did it) has no label? Why is it that when a girl shows some cleavage she’s easy, but a guy who does it is just wearing a v-neck muscle shirt?Why are men allowed to flaunt their bodies if they choose and without condemnation, but a girl who does the same is cheap? I think it is stupid.
I think modesty is beautiful.
@eatdrinkandbemaryy - not either, it is just an observation.
@eatdrinkandbemaryy - You don’t need to defend yourself. And there is “complimentary” and then there is slutty.Women of style and class know the difference.
You are pretty no matter who you are dressed, outside of a burka
Gotta flaunt wt u got
Screw social norms and what people think. As Oscar Wilde said: “If we’re always guided by other people’s thoughts, what’s the point in having our own?”
@PrisonerxOfxLove - I’d rather be a condom tangled up in pubic hair than being tangled up in petty games of fame…
@locomotiv - Sometimes the tangles of the fame game come unbidden. Nevertheless, women don’t need to dress like harlots to attract men. So the whole thing boils down to excessive conceit and vanity, both of which are horribly unhealthy.
Clearly everyone judging you is jealous, unless you do it when its cold outside…then its clearly for attention lol. Ive seen some girls walk outside in mini skirts and tops that show cleavage with no coat on in the middle of winter.
@PrisonerxOfxLove - but you seem to confuse women with harlots and harlots with women..i agree all is vanity…”it’s ok , i dont seek an argument today”
@eatdrinkandbemaryy - finally back!! just been busy w convocation and unpacking. youll see me back in action soon
haha
ummmm…. all of you looks great… don’t sell yourself short.
@brokenleaf - i don’t think it’s sexist considering a male’s body and a female’s body are actually different…@npr32486 - is it? i never really knew how to spell it.@TiredSoVeryTired - haha. i’m just trying to one up the big boobed women that i stand no chance against. hahaha. @ksivs4477 - well… i’m an extravagant person.@trunthepaige - thank you dear :]@Iamjazcurtis - ;]@genesis83 - very true~~@plursheep - i at least dress for the weather! …when i remember to check the weather…@malestop -
@eatdrinkandbemaryy - We have all worn flip flops on a rainy day or a sweater when it was hot. Accidents happen
I saw some girl yesterday wearing a white bra and a black fishnet shirt. Generally that is only accepted in the club and she was walking down a street known for lots of prostitution…so yes she was judged heavily.I looked at your pics again and quite frankly you don’t have that much showing. There are fat people that walk around with more hanging out but we’re not supposed to judge them right? Because they’re fat with low self esteem.
what? really? All the rage lately has been cropped tops! Tiny lacy corsets with high waist pants! I would be all over if I had a flat enough stomach! There is a time and place for everything. Anywhere people are showing upper thigh I thinks stomach is a go. Although I fancy not showing all three at once
Oh sweetie, it is acceptable. Where are you at, I mean country?
