Sexy or skanky?

August 18 2013

There was an interesting debate on the radio the other day about dress codes and where to draw the line between being sexily dressed to looking skanky. To be clear the debate was not referring to how we dress at a swingers club, private parties or in the bedroom just before a sexy romp between the sheets but going out in general public areas like restaurants, movies, shopping, etc.   The majority of men and women responded saying less skin showing is sexier than letting it all hang out and therefore looking skanky.   Some unwritten sexy dress rules that were mentioned included:   - ladies should only show off one asset at a time, eg. if you are showing your cleavage then cover the legs...sexy - if wearing ultra short skirt to draw attention to your legs then do not have your boobs hanging out as well....skanky (maybe this is because men can only focus on one asset at a time....lol) - solid heel stilletos are sexy, clear plastic stilletos are skanky - too much heavy make up (like drag queens) .... skanky - less eye make up but nice red lips ....sexy - denim shorts comfortably fitting with freyed leg edges .... sexy - denim shorts so tight and short that the pockets are hanging down and arse showing .... skanky How would you describe your dress sense and do you agree with the above comments? I like to think that I dress with a little class most of the time and sexy when appropriate....maybe with the occasional dress up or 2 for some added fun   Love to hear your thoughts   SF

    Friday night...Classy..... by Sunday Trashed.....The above comments are neither here nor there for me. Some people can pull off any one of those listed and still look fabulous. Some people can't pull off any of any off it and look pitiful, though hey, at the end of the day it is only my perception :)

    I don't need to flash anything, my tits speak for for themselves.   mostly I have skirts below knees, even longer if I have tight skirt its with black stockings and no boobs at all   make up,eyes and not to much on the lips but depends on if its day or night.   when you are older, golden rule less is best.   its not what you wear that's sexy its how you carry yourself.   I see some total FAIL at times, but then I am a snooty cow when it comes to mutton dressed as lamb

    Quoting 'Freya77'I dress like a nun Your choice of habit could set a new trend. The all black look can be sexy and I am sure you could pull it off with slits up the sides of your skirt giving a hint of ankle in some nice stilletos. Maybe accessorise with a whip and rosary beads... It's all in the presentation and attitude!   SF

    Quoting 'paintme' I'm rocking a sexy pair of trackie dacks right now but hey, it matches my shirt and my snotty nose. Sexy is all about your attitude, right? I was chatting with a guy on the phone the other night. It is around 10pm, the kids are asleep. I worked that day and am working the next day and he suggestively asks "so, what are you wearing"I am thinking - should I lie, should I tell him what he wants to hear but before I could help myself I laughed out loud. My reply was a little less subtle. It's 10pm, I am a single Mum of 3 kids, what the fuck do you think I am wearing ???"Sexy is definitely a state of mind !!!

    When asked by a guy doesn't always have the implicit suggestion that you must be wearing something sexy! We are visual creatures and like to imagine you just as you are. I know when I've asked it I'd rather honesty as I am picturing you in my mind :-) Anyway trackies are good, easy to get a hand or hands into lol! As for sexy vs skanky, is it a sad indictment that it is always about a woman and not whether as man is skanky too? Or is that because with guys fashion it is impossible to be skanky and you are either well dressed or not- Posted from rhpmobile

    One man's skank is another man's sex.....and vice versa - Posted from rhpmobile

    Visualise this..... Liz Hurley, in that plunging safety pin dress Versus Rebel Wilson wearing that plunging safety pin dress. Now that is NOT a criticism of the bigger girl.... Only a reference to highlight the difference in perception. Similarly, Milla Jovovic laying sprawled out on my bed lightly coveted in a white cotton sheet.... Versus Milla naked walking down Pitt St Mall. Location clearly also plays a role in perception. So one persons class, is another's Ho bag, relative to personal taste, and social setting. Either way, it's a judgement call against what YOU like. DG

    Completey agree - have always been taught you pick one asset in each of the areas only.   If you're showing off your cleavage, don't show off your legs. If you're highlighting your eyes, go neutral on the lips (or vice versa) If you're wearing a cool necklace, don't overdo it with bangles and earrings that over the top too.   And if all that fails - be wearing a killer smile and hopefully they won't be looking at anything else.

    I have that. I use my sense of smell. If its not excessively skanky I put it on. Now I feel sexy and that is all that matters.

    I like to cover up in public, showing the outline of my figure, maybe a bit of leg or arms. When at home, the sexy, probably not skanky us unleashed - I prefer to wear as little as possible.

    Would you also define this fine line of transition? And the finer attributes that identify when a Cougar crosses over into "Hatchet faced old easy lay" category. Thank you.
