View Profile History	A woman is what she wears Posted : 29 Sep, 2011 04:38 PM It is not true. I grow up in a disfunctional family but people didn�t see it because my mother made us beautiful clothes to wear so it looked like it was no wrong with our family. I am since my childhood suspicious when people look so perfect because in all cases I have check it out have it been that people have hide mental issues behind beautiful clothes. Clothes can fool people. I wear clothes after my mood and it can change every day and sometimes many times a day. I can go from casual to fancy clothes in a day or under a day and I know people can�t tell who I am Post Reply

How you dress tells a lot about one's self." I think you got it, Cobbler. Of course, clothing can tell you what someone is like in more than one way. It can be a true reflection of the person, or it can be a fake front that the person puts on. You can occasionally make quick assessments of people based on their clothing, but you have to be careful. If you see a girl who is dressed very immodestly, you can probably make the assumption that she has no problem with flaunting what she's got. If you see someone who wears nothing but big, baggy, shapeless clothes, you can probably assume that she is uncomfortable with her body or has no idea how to dress more attractively. If you see someone who is wearing scrubs, it's a safe bet to guess that she works in the medical field. Those are just a few (probably not-so-great) examples. Personally, I like to look nice, but I'm also a fairly thrifty person (not "shabby", though). I also like to be comfortable. My clothing is a reflection of that. I enjoy wearing new clothes, but I think I've really spent a fortune if I spend more than $10 for a shirt or pair of pants. Because of that, I've become an expert at shopping the clearance racks and coming away with bargains that are functional, comfortable, appropriate (age-wise and modesty-wise) and cute. I'll confess, though, that at times, I have dressed in ways that make me feel the way I want to feel. For example, I have an awesome pair of jeans, a pair of high heels, and a cute blouse that (when worn together) make me look several inches taller, several pounds thinner, and really attractive...if I do say so myself. If I'm feeling insecure about a situation, I'll pull out that outfit and force myself to appear more confident than I am. I think the main thing to remember is that we can't judge someone based solely on clothing. The clothing is like a book cover...it can be fancy, colorful, plain, tattered, new, shiny, etc., but it's what is on the pages between the covers that is important. You'll know more by "reading" the person rather than "judging" that person by the clothing. You'll learn whether the clothing is an accurate reflection of the person, or a representation of what that person whats to be...or a mixture of the two. Post Reply
View Profile History	A woman is what she wears Posted : 29 Sep, 2011 07:23 PM you can also notice where a woman is from by her clothes. I notice when on sites like this, more of the women in the south have more revealing wear, compared to girls in canada, that have a lot of photos bundled up :laugh: Post Reply
View Profile History	A woman is what she wears Posted : 30 Sep, 2011 01:00 PM "24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment." (John 7:24) "7 But the Lord said to Samuel, 'Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.'� (1 Samuel 16:7) "1 Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? 2 He grew up before Him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to Him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. 3 He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces He was despised, and we esteemed Him not." (Isiah 53:1-3) So I never judge anyone woman or man by what they wear. Post Reply
Mercymay View Profile History	A woman is what she wears Posted : 30 Sep, 2011 05:05 PM In what we wear we get the corresponding treatment. If we dress inappropriate then people treat us inappropriately, not everybody but such response is expected. There are those who put a lot of effort to look good, there are also those that will look good on just anything. I remember when my kid was about 4 years old wearing her old house clothes playing with another kid. The other mom called me and said, look at them, my kid already had bath and change of clothes and do smell good, while yours still have to take a bath but she does look more clean and neat and smell good than my kid. A woman is what she wears? Maybe what she wears and how she carries it. Post Reply
View Profile History	A woman is what she wears Posted : 1 Oct, 2011 11:51 AM I don't think a woman is what she wears at all. I think people often get the wrong idea about people by looking at the outward appearance. Good thing that God doesn't and looks at the heart, right?! And likewise, I don't think that we should be judging anyone on outward appearance at all, and for ourselves I try not to store too much importance in clothes. Of course you don't want to dress to cause your brother to stumble etc, but really a woman is worth SO MUCH MORE in God's eyes than what she wears. Post Reply
algomaboy View Profile History	A woman is what she wears Posted : 3 Oct, 2011 04:59 PM This applies to the USA, every culture is different. When you go into the deep jungle to meet people their dress code is so different. On another christian site I read a very true statement. In the jungle a group of believers wore flip flops and flower shirts to church. They also all wore short pants. Post Reply
View Profile History	A woman is what she wears Posted : 4 Oct, 2011 08:36 AM I wonder where in his world people live in "deep jungles" if it's almost impossible to live in the jungle and I also wonder why would they wear coats and boot to walk on beautiful beaches they have in some countries that would be crazy and non-sense. :glow: Post Reply
donna54 View Profile History	A woman is what she wears Posted : 12 Oct, 2011 03:18 AM I think someone paying attention can often get an idea of a woman's mood and confidence by how she dresses-- Are the makeup and accessories understated or did she take three hours? Is the clothing the right size and age-appropriate, or is it too tight and "trying too hard"? Casual is one thing, but sloppy shows a lack of caring, both for the opinions of the people you're with and for yourself. Comb your hair, wash your face, check your teeth. Can she look you in the eye, put out her hand and say Hi, and walk down the street with you without checking herself in every window she passes? Does she know the styles and colors that suit her best, and do you as the guy feel good walking with her? And guys? With certain gender references and other details changed, this goes for you, too. How a man dresses (I don't mean expensively, I mean clean and neat, the basics) and how comfortable he is in his own skin matters a great deal to quite a few of us. We want to be happy walking with you, as well. Post Reply
