Hair. perfect, make-up. flawless, outfit. gorgeous and very well put together not to mention her shoes are always three inches. She struts across the campus getting the attention of everyone she passes (even other females.obviously in envy). Some may classify her as a diva, while others simply whisper, “She’s doing too much.” As the thoughts of onlookers defend her dress or continue to object to her undeniable style.. what does one think about girls on campus who seemingly portray images from a magazine model to video (bleeps) on their way to class everyday? Nevertheless, it is true that a lot of young women dress up just to feel better about themselves or to merely showcase their personal style. A lot of young women dress a certain way because they want to be perceived a certain way, yet other girls do it to make up for something else that’s missing. That “something” can be a lack of self -esteem or even a good solid sense of self-awareness. Bluntly put, some girls just want and desire attention. Yet, how does one tell the difference between a girl that just likes to dress nicely because she wants to look sophisticated or simply likes to be admired?
Asked what they thought regarding this issue students around campus seemed to be split on how they felt. Why are some girls going out of their way to look flawless every day trying to compensate for, or are they compensating for anything else in all? Do some girls feel as though they can only get a guy’s attention by showing a little skin or do some girls just like to flaunt it because they feel as though they can?
Several students on campus were asked in a random questionnaire for the reasons why they think some girls may go overboard and these reasons topped the list:
1) Trying to attract attention from the opposite sex.
2) Competing with members of the same sex.
3) Deep down inside they don’t feel naturally attractive and are trying to cover up for insecurities, or low self-esteem
4) Trying to keep up with the Joneses.
While some of these listings are merely the opinions of others, this does not apply to everyone who looks “fly” but there are a few exceptions to the rule. People who look nice every day or dress up constantly may do it because it makes them feel better about themselves. Some people were raised in families that have always put a special emphasis at looking their best when going out in public; others change their entire wardrobe because it’s the latest fashion. There is absolutely nothing wrong with dressing to the tee every day because it’s actually good practice for the professional world.
So whatever you want to wear is your choice regardless of what others think.
