Women, are we wearing less and less?

I remember once I talked to my mom about women's summer dresses. My mom mentioned that it is funny that when she was young, women wear long skirts, and long sleeve shirts, to protect the reveling of too much skin. On the contrast, men wear short boxers walking in the street, and flip flops, etc. Years later, even thought it is still common to see men wear flip flops and shorts on the street. It is not quite that common to see men dress like that in Asia. Except for being in the swimming pool, all people in my dad's generation wear long pants during the hot summer, and so as the young men.

Let's see what girls wear, in a night club, on a performance, or even when we attend a show. We think short shorts make legs look longer, that is why we are in favor of those cloths that would help on this. Years ago, if one wears bikini on a beach, people would consider that person has a lot of courage. However, if you walk on a beach wearing a normal full-body baking suit, people would wonder, " hey girl, are you here for a swimming lesson?"

How could one get a lot of media attention really fast? It is apparently easier for girls than boys. The answer is, take off the cloths! It is not comfortable for every girl to do so, like to dance in public wear what the girls in the picture wears, however for those who wants the attention and dare or enjoys it, using the body is a very powerful tool. They do not feel offended by people's judgement. They might even proud of their moves, their dresses.

It is really one individual's will to choose what to wear, what to show to the world. We always hear that people say " Show the world what you've got". It might just be one way of showing the world a real myself. However is it the world/society's fault by structuring the image of reveling body is good? And thus encouraged more young girls to do so? Is it because men like to see that, so girls are willing to sell meat for attention, money and other things?
