Why do teenage girls wear such scandalous clothing these days?

because they can.\n\nbecause in the sex driven world of pop culture, role models are forced to reveal more and more of themselves just to make an impression. so hordes of followers, unwitting and otherwise, remove their clothes in an effort to attain the elusive goal of the norm

dress codes are just to keep students to wear thing that are apropiate. we may not care if someone shirt had swearing of somthing about sex on it but it not allowed in schools because they do not want expose these things to younger children.\n\nas for people who wear slutty clothes (hopefully only girls) the the dress codes prohibit you from wears these to protect you somehow.\n\nif you are talking about uniforms, they are used to identify students from stranger.

Well I have never seen a girls "period napkin," while they were out in public, (who calls it that by the way) but I would guess because the ones who show off their bodies - and have a good one to show - like the attention. For the others, they just may not care about how they look, even if it is as you say, they "be naked... [and] they show their panties and period napkin.

Parents who let their daughters walk around in clothes that practically scream "DO ME!" (no, I'm not kidding, why do you think we have so many pedophiles in our day and age?) are in one of three categories: either they don't care enough about their kids, they don't know that their kid is dressed like that (because they weren't there when the kid bought the clothes and the kid changes into it once they're out of the house), or they honestly have just given up because nothing they do keeps that child from walking out of the house dressed like... you know. The kids do this thinking it will attract guys... and it does. Just not the RIGHT kind of guys. To be honest? I'm 19 years old. If I can't respect the young woman I'm dating, why should I bother dating her? All my girlfriends in the past have dressed respectfully no matter what the occasion. Parents need to do whatever they can to keep their little girls from getting away with dressing like that.

because they dont know what they want they just do what they think will make them happy. and make them look cool and hip... but really all they do is lose trust in ppl and they dont have good relationships with girls. so dont worry about it when they get older they will grow out of it.

Yes, yes, yes!!!  I am so glad you brought this point up.  I always talk about this with my friends.  We often ask each other if we were that ugly when we were teenagers.  We have come to the conclusion that they are a lot uglier than we ever were.  You often see teens trying to get away with the clothes, hairstyles, and all around fashion that only beautiful celebrities can get away with.  They often spend more, peirce more, bleech more, and end up looking uglier and uglier than they would without all the extras.  If this keeps up, we're in for some real nasty teens in the near future.

Depends. In my school, the tights and skirt from the 80s seems popular with a few girls. We also have Converses, the skater look, and hoddies seems to be cool fashion in our grade.

Because America girls can wear what they "choose" to wear! They are pleasing themselves.

I think that it is a shame that girls feel the need to gain approval of men through dressing like tramps.  Unfortunately, too many times these same young women end up being treating just as they appear~like tramps.  It is incredible that you are secure enough to know this and know that you are a beautiful woman! I appauld you for your confidence~  \nMen are visual creatures and with the younger boys/men having so much "available" to them ~ they expect it yet think less of women who do it.  Who knows?  I guess young girls think that looking like a porn star is appealing?  I don't why.  I get sick every time I see girls on television like that Girls Gone Wild thing.  I feel so bad for them and their parents.  You know that they will eventually regret it.\nBravo to you~

they want attention. lack of it when they were younger. a girl who shows it off alot wants to be center or everything. one who covers up is the best to be with. at least she wont flaunt wut she got to everyone else

The type of popularity highlighted in The Breakfast Club and Mean Girls, is actually a relatively new phenomenon in our culture. In a nutshell, it can be seen as the consequence of teenagers living in a consumer society, a society whose economic existence depends on people constantly having a desire to consume.  Marketers, in various ways, create artificial premium importance on many goods by convincing teenagers that -- by consuming them -- they will gain social acceptance.  This drive to be accepted, though natural for social creatures like humans, is compounded by the fact that objects and group affiliation now offer a tangible way of 'declaring' just how accepted someone is.  For example, the 'preps' who wear Abercrombie and are always seen at the shopping galleria can declare their popularity by buying a certain brand of clothing, which marketers have manipulated their peers into thinking makes them more popular than someone who wears Brand X.  Further,  teenagers in a consumer society have far more free time and disposable income than did teenagers just a century ago.  Time that would have been spent doing chores or working in the field, is today used by teenagers to contemplate their popularity and to work on improving it.

I think it is a good warning to young girls and even older women to be careful what info you give out to a stranger.Now if the girl is really dress like half naked,They are just attracting men too.I had a stalker,but had all my clothes on,and you never know who you are talking to on the other side.

Why in some countries 15 year old girls not allow to wear belly shirts, halter tops, short shorts and no bras in public, on streets, in stores.  Why they can't wear bikini's at the beach.\n\nWhy is there a warrant for arrest on a fashion model from Iran because she posed in a bra for a picture on a Madenform package to be used in Middle Eastern countries.  That was her only crime, allowing a picture to be taken of her in a bra.\n\nFor every postitive there is a negative.  That's a rule of the universe.

Those are the lamest people.. especially when they wear skin tight girl's pants. What's wrong with these guys? I'm only 22 and when I was in HS there wasn't any of this BS going around. I'm surprised some girls are into "guys" that look like girls.

Hee hee, that's so true.  For teens who dress goth, without understanding what goth is all about, it's just a fad that represents rebellion against normal fashion.  Truth is, real goths don't care about standing out, they just want to be themselves, and they're not rebelling against the system.  It think the spooky kids just dress that way to piss of their parents, which teen "punks", "hippies", and "greasers" probably did in past generations.  It doesn't do any harm, but in hindsight it's silly.

I would say Self-Esteem issues, peer pressure, girls thinking that they should look like girls in the videos or magazines, thus wanting to have comestic surgery to look like someone else, giving in to sex under pressure or too soon, and under age drinking.  Teens... just be the best person you can be.  Be you.

they exploit the pre-conceived societal notion that girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice.\n\n... and we want to believe that lie
