Why do teenage girls dress like sluts?

They walk around with their chests and midsections mostly exposed, skintight pants, and gobs of makeup. Is it because they are so insecure and starved for attention and affection that they think they will not be accepted if they don't expose all these body parts? I can't see how they can expect anyone to respect them when they obviously have no respect for themselves. I understand that it is the current "style" but that does not make it appropriate.

    Yes your right attention seeking and they think they have to flaunt what they do or dont posses. there mothers should really restrict there wardrobe and not let them run wild unless there wanting grandchildren earlie because sadly most guys like this. These girls have no style or class, you can look nice and sexy without showing the goods-they need better role models for sure. They have no respect for there bodies and will not have an enjoyable future unless they grow up and cover up. No respectable man wants his women showing others her goods unless he is a dirt bag.

    I totally agree with you im a year older and i completely dont understand this. When they dress like that, its not cool, or cute, their showing they have no respect for themselves, and boys who like them because of their slutty clothing are not guys that you would want to date. I agree with you completely on the pregnancy thing. You have all your life to get pregnant, why do it while your so young? Why not have fun and enjoy being a kid, because your only young once. How are you supposed to follow your dream with a baby to take care of while your a teenager? I would never dress like a slut or even act like one,i see absolutely nothing good or cute about it and I respect myself. I love your point of view, i wish their were more guys like you:)

    The answer depends upon perspective. Let's assume your best friend

    was offered free bobble-heads and the response was, "That looks like slut and my mommy would send me to bed without supper if she saw one in my stuff." Then reader is offered free bobble-heads and you replied, "I'm seeing teenage girls dressed like sluts and my mammy would keep me locked in the closet every night for a week if she eyeballs any." When this writer is offered the free bobble-heads I'll just laugh and say, "Yeah, hand 'em over, 'cause my mother has never been around sluts enough to recognize them.

    cuz theyre attention hoes and they want guys to notice them so they dress like skanks. i have to see it every day at school with all the girls dressing like they're going to strip clubs. im 15 and a lot of girls my age just want to get with guys and dressing like hoes gets a guy's attention so they just do it. but i respect my body so i actually cover up. and i actually end up getting more guys lookin at me than the slutty girls do because im something different. i think that its jsut a teen phase. one day these girls will mature and respect themselves. or they'll just work as prostitutes [=

    haha i think its because they want attention from guys, and for everyone to accept them. no one wants to be a total outcast (except for those very few) and sometimes, its just because they ARE sluts and want so much attention from guys. (maybe even some girls)

    and yea, i agree, it doesn't make it appropriate. sometimes when i see someone's skin hanging out of their pants, i wanna tug their shirt down really bad but i must urge not to.

    That is YOUR definition of "slutty" dress. By changing of the time, dress code changes. People don’t dress today they way they did 50 years ago, neither had they dressed the way people did 100 years earlier.

    Time changes, new generations dress, act and reason in a new way. And don’t worry; their time will come to resist changes of generations after them.

    Progress is a never-ending friction between the old and the new; the result is a shiny evolving culture.

    They think it's cute but it's not and they are insecure and trying to act grown since they think they're grown they might as well should be called sluts

    Because they crave acceptance, attention, and they want to be wanted, Its what they think they have to do to get guys to look at them. Don't ask me how they can look at themselves in the mirror but they somehow manage.

    I Am a teenage girl myself, and I do not understand why other teenage girls dress Like that. I think that they do not care about how appropriate they look, all they care about is whether they will be accepted by their peer group. And i really think that you should rephrase your question to "why do teenage girls dress how they do?" Because not all teenage girls dress like "sluts".
