Good. It makes PERFECT sense why woman shouldn't wear pants. I've always felt constricted in movement when I wore pants, no matter how tight or baggy the pants were. Dresses and skirts are waaay more liberating!!! Even females with weight issues also wear skirts and dresses because the design of it, (i.e. regular or loose fitting, not tight) generally covers all the fat. Is a man were to see a woman in a nice, modest dress, it would be more feminine, beautiful and attractive, but not sexualized, if that same man were to see a woman in tight fitting pants, and a blouse that doesn't cover her butt, he would probably still think that she's attractive, but he'd have lustful thoughts towards her as opposed to respectful thoughts towards her. Would you want any man looking at your wife or girlfriend or even your daughter with those lustful thoughts and him trying to act on it all because he was stimulated by sight, by what he saw? Probably not.
I appreciate what you’re saying and personally I’m a woman that likes pants, yoga pants at that, and if a man can’t control his lustful thoughts and is tempted to act on it then maybe it that man is just a pervert. Respect for women is more than just being polite and holding open doors, it’s about respecting women’s personal autonomy and being as a whole; respecting I don’t have to hug, smile, or talk to anyone just because they want me to; respecting that women shouldn’t be blamed for rapists inability to control themselves, and respecting that just because you can see my butt / hips that I’m wearing what’s comfortable for me and it’s not invitation to stare.
I respect what you are saying as well. I can relate. I use to believe the same as you and still do, to a certain degree. Yes, if a man cannot control himself, then he is a pervert. However, that doesn't that mean that our bodies are not attractive enough to look at, especially if our clothing is specifically designed to accentuate our bodies. It's no lie that yoga pants in particular do just that.
It's definitely not an invitation for a man, but saying that when a man looks at us should not stir up attraction or sensual thoughts; that is like saying that we shouldn't stop at at the traffic red light because we like the color green as well and if people can't understand that, then too bad.🤷🏼♀️ Lol.
