My friend dresses like a slut.

[Anonymous]

She cannot go anywhere without wearing something skintight - breasts out to there and skirts cut very short. All the time. She tends to bend over and squat alot.

She is nearing 50. She can still put this off but it's just that I would like to go somewhere with her without having her half undressed.

I've never said anything but others do.

I am not jealous - just want her to put something on. Advice?

Buy her a long sweater for her birthday.

Drop slut from your misogynistic vocabulary.

Was she always like this or is this something new? if the latter, it could be a sign of depression or midlife crisis, or something, and you could say something out of concern, But if she's always dressed like this... well, you need to accept her as she is!

Good for her! I wish I had the gumption at 49.

If it makes you that uncomfortable, limit your time out with her. Otherwise you have to just deal with it. I have a friend who dresses like she's working the corner more often than not, but I like her and enjoy her company so I don't dwell on it.

I too had a slutty dressing friend. Embarrassing to go places with her but I just pretended it didn't bother me but damn, it was really bad. Her favorite outfit was skin tight blue jeans, matching button down vest, no shirt underneath, padded bra, boot to the knees.

Then one day out of the blue we were at a nursery looking at potted plants when she said her husband's mother told her she was getting older and she needed to dress appropriately if she wanted her husband to climb the ladder. What did I think. I told her the truth.

Recently saw some pictures of her. She's aged badly but still has that slutty look. Upscale but slutty.

There's a 60 year old woman in my office like this - yes, 60! Funny thing is, she pulls it off! It was a little shocking at first, but now I think, more power to her!

Adults don't get to tell other adults how to dress Accept her for who she is or don't hang out with her


And never say slut again. Ever.

This. I had a co-worker who dressed very inappropriately both at work and socially, so I kind of just tried to keep very busy when she was around at work so it didn't reflect badly on me in that scenario. I had no problem going out places with her though, she was a good friend and fun to be around. There is no real way to bring it up without hurting her feelings or damaging your friendship.

What would you prefer? Here are some options from the thesaurus:


slut (noun)
A vulgar promiscuous woman who flouts propriety:

baggage, hussy, jade, slattern, tart, tramp, wanton, wench, whore, floozy.

Or should i have said "fashionably challenged"?

Here's the deal. A woman can be promiscuous even if she dresses like a librarian (who can dress in a sexually provocative way).

So, how about saying "My friend dresses in outfits that are too revealing."

I'm going to go with the age old wisdom, "Mind your own fucking business."

I have a few friends who dress revealing and Im jealous of their confidence to be honest. Life is short, wear what you want! Honestly shame on them if other people think your friend is a slut. And shame on you for referring to your friend with this word.
