Is it appropriate for my mother to tell my fiance' not to wear certain clothes to her house? I think it is?
Long story short, I'm engaged to a beautiful 23 year old girl. She has a pretty face, big breasts and a nice @ss. And believe me, she loves to show off her beautiful body. In a few hours we are taking our 2 kids to visit my mother. My fiance' has on white tight shorts, a black low cut lacy blouse, 3 inch black heels and a lot of eye make up. My mother has asked her several times not to wear clothes like this to her house. My mother's boyfriend is an older man with a wandering eye so I understand why she feels this way. Should I argue with my fiance' to change her clothes or not?

Kindly ask your fiance' to put on some longer pants and a less revealing shirt. It is your mother's house so she should respect her requests while she is there. I have a nice body and like to show off, too. But there are certain things that you don't wear to church, your man's Momma's house and work.

I can understand wanting to show off a lovely body. However....
I cannot believe she dresses the same way everywhere all the time. I'm sure, for example, that wouldn't be what she would wear to church, a funeral, a job interview, or ice-skating.
You should always dress appropriate to the situation. The situation is that she's visiting her future mother-in-law.
Who is she showing off for? You? Don't you already make her feel beautiful? The kids? I doubt they're impressed.
Is she showing off for her future mother-in-law? Well, she's *really* impressing her, isn't she?
Is she showing off for her future mother-in-law's boyfriend? Well, then your fiancee has some issues you need to address.
Being engaged to a beautiful 23-year old girl is nice. Being engaged to a beautiful, respectful, and thoughtful 23-year old girl would be better.

I would normally say never let anyone come between you and the person you are with but in this case I would have to say that if you don't and your mother asks you not to bring her back, you both kind of deserve it!
I have no problem with sexy clothing but there is a place and a time for everything and your mother's house and family restaurants, etc. are not it! I would have to wonder why she feels the need to attract so much attention in that way all the time. I always feel sorry for these women. I can't help but think that they must have a rotten or no personality to rely so heavily on their appearance to attract attention.
I'm not above donning a black low-cut very mini dress to go out to a club or at home just for me and the SO, but I have no desire to wear that kind of apparel anywhere else.
Besides, I believe that a woman can be sexy as hell completely covered if she knows how to carry herself like a lady. I'm proof.

Do you respect your fiance'? If so, you should be concerned about how other males may look at her. You mom is your mom, and it is her home. You should have a talk with her alone sometime to find out her views. You are a grown man with two kids, and what you teach your two children over time will stay with them. Your mother may have a legitimate concern about the wandering eye of your step dad. I would consider this. If your fiance is not an exhibitionist then she should have no problem taming it down for the visit.

The way you describe her, it tends to have one believe you are making up this question. Because it sounds as though you are dating a hooker. But, going on the assumption that you are being 100% honest and you legitimately want an answer to this question, Yes! your mother has that right. It is her house, her domain if you will and she has every right to screen what comes into her home. Now, if the positions were reversed, and she was visiting you, she would have no grounds to object, however she would reserve the right not to visit if your fiance's apparel offended her. But remember this, it's is your mother home and as you would want her to respect you and your home when visiting, she has every right to expect the same from visitors to hers. I don't think her boyfriends wandering eye has as much to do with it as you think. Looking is one thing, acting on it is another.

I'm not touching this one!
All I can say is your girl is only 23 yrs old. When I was that age I would show off my goods too. But I grew up and became more classy with the why I dress. Hey dude good luck on this one

ur wife should wear what she wants to but the is a time and place to dress for the occasion ,as far as the mom's bf ask ur wife to dress down going there cause ur kids can pick up on things easy.'You are what you Learn', No u shouldn't argue point out what she is teaching ur kids.Compromise is the key word,

I would think she'd get uncomfortable with an old man checking her out like that. If I were you, I'd make some comments to her like "Have you noticed how he keeps staring at you? He keeps trying to look down your shirt." Stuff like that. Maybe she'll get creeped out and cover up a little more next time.

Why does your fiance feel the need to dress like a hooker? Doesn't she have enough inside of to offer as a person that she doesn't have to put her wares on display for all the world to see? It's a bit pathetic that her body is all she thinks she has to offer.
Perhaps...it sin't as much about your mom's bf...as it is about your mom not wanting to see your gf's camel toe.
Yeah...she can dress like she wants. But she also makes a statement about herself through her clothing. And her clothing screams that she is a skank. Why wouldn't she want to exude class and dignity?
I have a nice body. The only one I put it on display for is my husband.
