Can somebody tell me why women shop or buy clothes all the time?

Women want to look good period because looking good gets you attention and makes you feel better. Women also buy clothes for men so that they can feel sexy and be manipulative.

It's very brave of you to give up all these habits..esp the world we live in nowadays where everyone is doing the above so casually and so often.\nSpending time on ebay is a great way i think to pass your time and healthy to (as long as you dint get obsessed with shopping!)\nWell done!!

I shop.  I always want to buy something.  I am in debt because of it and my account is consantly overdrawn and my bills are always late.  It's a big problem I am trying to get a handle on!

Almost everything. Gender is a huge determinant; no surprise that for most cultures that's the primary means of assigning what people are to wear. The culture itself tells a person a lot. What that person might actually like. Peer pressure from family, friends, and society at large. Trends and lifestyles, and the desire to be accepted by others. Fears and hopes. The work or job one does. One's religion and faith. \n\nSo many pressures for such a simple thing. But most cultures really do believe that "the clothes make the man (or woman)" and don't tolerate deviance in such an important matter.

Some girls like bring alot of important personal things to anywhere they goes. They feel more secure if the important things are near by them. That's the reason they always bring many things in the purses and need a big purse.\n\nJoyce

If everything you wanted switched with everyone you could afford.... you'd still want the things that you couldn't have. Its human nature. \n\n\nSomeone somewhere wants the stuff that you have, and wonders why it costs so much.

Clothing is a BIG business on eBay. Try shopping a discounter like TJ Maxx, Ross for Less, Marshalls or whatever it is called in your area for women’s clothes from designers like Ralph Lauren, BCBG or Tommy Hilfiger. Often times you can find, for example, a woman’s shirt that sells in the mall for $50 on sale for $10. Odds are if you put it on eBay for $25, you would sell it. The customer thinks they saved $25 and you made $15. :) Now multiply it by 100 sales and you are in business. I do about $2K a month in sales and I profit about $500 and that’s from just working part time. It is not "easy money", you do have to work at it, but if you are willing to invest the time and effort, you can do it.

Neither because, they will enjoy MORE when you give them YOUR check-book, credit cards and all the cash in your pockets...then allowing them to shop until they drop.\n\nMen need sex, women do not really need it; they need Unlimited Spending Money (USM).

You can easily fit into seats, you can shop in the kids department and save a lot of money on the same clothes they are selling in the adult department, you need less food so you'll spend less money on it, and guys seem to like girls shorter than themselves so you will be more attractive to a wider variety of men.

I don't know. My friend and I were discussing it the other day, we don't get it either and we ARE women. Personally I have about 4 pairs of shoes, I have trouble finding any that I like so I don't get how some women have hundreds of pairs. That would be impossible for me! Every time I need a new pair I trawl through about a dozen shoe stores before I find a pair that I'd even consider. It's such a hassle, don't know how people could call shoe shopping fun!

It doesn't really depend for me. I just shop whever I see good clothes. I'll usually avoid the malls though since their stuff is either overpriced and/or the quality just isn't good.

Survival of the species.  Men were hunters and women were gatherers.  Men brought home bears while women foraged for berries, legumes, and tubers.  Darwin suggests that only the successful reproduced.  Only those females who made useful contributions passed on their genes.  It is a survival instinct in women to shop. The need is gone but the urge is still there.  Think about it.  When selling to men, marketers present items as animals. Cars are named after tigers, engines-bears, etc.  Also the item is show singly.  Even tires, which come in 4 (duh) are depicted individually.  Because men hunt.  They have a target.  But when an item is being marketed to women, it is usually shown in bulk, in a market environment.  Pay attention to TV ads.  Get 40% more.  BOGO (by one, get one), and coupons.

I think those people realize that clothes don't make or break who they are. They are truly secure in the knowledge of who they are and are perfectly happy inside their own skin. They are in tune with themselves and can celebrate their own intrinsic value. They simply realize that real people accept you for who you are, not for what you wear. Clothes are a necessary accessory. No more, no less.
