Part of me thinks that but then I remember I am now a middle age mom. I remember my parents telling me my outfit wasn’t appropriate as a teen.

My daughter has a standard uniform Windsor micro mini dress. The only variation between girls seems to be the color and if they are wearing shoes or sneakers.

We, the good girls, agreed with your mother. My brothers(the cool and the quiet) and their friends “said many things” about you. My 13yo DS says that girls like your DD don’t respect themselves(no, we’re not religious).

Ick it sound like your opinionated boy is going to be trying to get out of a SA charge by saying the girl provoked him with her mini skirt.

Your post says everything that is wrong with men. Glad you are raising a pig.

The problem is really trashy mothers like you. You cannot give the message to your girls that they should cultivate their mind and brain, but then allow them to dress like pole dancers.

There are many age and occasion appropriate clothes for girls, but, if they are deliberately dressing to be sexy, well then, people are going to look at them because they are sexy, and the opinion about them will be that they want sexual attention. That is all.

Mostly the girls who are dressing like this are coming from messed up families and they are fair game to many boys who are also from messed up families. The generally decent boys and girls may judge them but they stay far away from them. They won't touch these people with a nine-foot pole because who wants to deal with a dumpster fire?

NP and you sound insane. Is there any age where you find these dresses appropriate? I mean, take 80% of boring suburban moms and we all used to dress like this back in the day.

This is DCUM. The population is multi-cultural, educated and multinational. So, the typical trailer trash is not the norm here. That's all. No, not ALL girls used to dress like this back in the day. Not ALL girls dress like this even now. At least not in DMV.

I know the girls in our high school do not wear cheap dresses like Windsor to events. They wear Zimmerman, Alice and Olivia, Self Portrait, any of the new designers. They will have cut outs and will be short but don’t look as cheap as the literally cheap Chinese dresses.

I am always surprised about the lack of taste.

Ha! I cannot image my teen asking for a $500 hoco dress!

Interesting - saw quite a few sequins on friends' daughters in the Midwest this year but not locally in MoCo.

Homecoming is an appropriate event to dress to be sexy. It's not visiting grandma in the old folks' home.

To me, this is the exact problem. Some parents want their 14 and 15 year old daughters to be "sexy". And there are those of us who want our girls to just be kids and enjoy their youth without learning to be sex objects at such an early age. I know some moms that take pride in "sexy" daughters. They actively push that image for their girls. Personally, I'd rather my DD learn to be comfortable in her own skin and gain confidence in her value independent of sexual desirability. We're in two different camps for sure.

Hate to break it to you but your DD has had sexual urges since she was a toddler. A 15 year old is brimming with sex hormones, as is a junior in high school. There is every natural inclination to explore the new grown up body especially in relation to attracting the other sex. I mean what do you think is the whole purpose of Homecoming?

The people who place a value judgement on this are not the most attractive and try to besmirch "the competition".

ROFL. The purpose of Homecoming is to welcome back alumni. If you welcomed them back with open legs, that's on you, but not everyone chose to welcome them back like that.

Nah, you can welcome back alumni during a daytime event. You don't need a date, a dress, music and a dark hall. Plus you'd be much more in your element during the daytime, in a hoodie hiding your flat chest.

I know multiple girls who have asked their moms to pre-shop dresses for them bc they are so busy with school, sports, HW. - NP

I used to do that. Buy around 11-12 dresses and my kid would select one. Return the meat.

It's lose-lose if you are a girl. We don't do this to our boys.

This is just not true. EVERYONE is judged on how they look, including adults and children. If you wear a polished suit and present yourself professionally, you are given more deference than a disheveled person who cannot muster a clean appearance. Boys, likewise, are judged whether they are fat or thin, wearing designer clothes or tattered rags, or presenting too urban. If a boy came into class with baggy pants showing his underwear, gold chains, skinhead, goth gear, or any other trend, society at large would make assumptions about their education, class, and background.

I won't hire someone who cannot dress professional for in-person or zoom whether it be male or female. The idea that ONLY females are judged is such nonsense. It just so happens that females are the most likely of the two sexes to be dressed half naked, which makes this issue come up more often. I don't know any men who dress in short shorts, tank tops, or clothes with holes in it. No heels, makeup, plastic surgery lifts or implants. These trends are all female promoted by females.

I won't hire someone who can't use adverbs.

What school?

I was shocked at the long line of girls and their moms waiting to get into Windsor at Tyson's on Saturday. Why spend that much time, just buy on SHEIN. Saw several out at restaurants on Saturday night. They were spending half their time pulling/holding their dresses down so they wouldn't flash the world.

NYC. The middle schoolers will wear the sneakers with dresses. Not so much the older girls. I don’t get the appeal of that squeezing into that material must feel awful

This entire thread is why as a woman I prefer men as friends.

NP here

A 14-15yr old are not kids. They are teens and are already past the coming of age. They are a few years away from full adulthood.

How about instead of saying moms want their teens to be sexy or other moms want their teens to be “kids” how about you just let the teens decide who they want to be and what dress they want to wear and even better, STOP JUDGING!!

Except that our courts and legal system have made a clear delineation between 14 yrs old and 18 YO. Why is any parent pushing "sexy" on their underage, minor 14 year old DD? My DD is 14. She is not past coming of age and is still a kid. She may be 4 years away from adulthood but 4 years is a long time in the life of a child.

Why are you moms trying to make young girls "sexy" adults? It's this idea that I have an issue with. It's this mentality that has made child beauty pageants so big in this country.
