I'm back (just for tonight lol, then I'll be back again after holidays)! I posted those pics of me and several family members liked/heart-reacted them and commented wishing me a happy birthday. So many people on my post before told me I shouldn't/they wouldn't post them where family can see them because of my revealing outfit but modest clothing is just something my family isn't bothered with (they all dress modestly but don't care about what anyone else wears). They're literally obsessed with Dolly Parton lol and just like her, my style is heavily influenced by "trashy" aesthetics, but- also just like her, my character speaks for itself and I'm not defined by what I wear. It got me thinking about other's families, so does your family care about what you wear? (Obviously time and place can be relevant, but I'm meaning generally)

Yes. I’m more of a modest dresser anyway but around my family or my husband’s family always extra modest. No cleavage ever, no skin showing except short sleeves, and below knees. I wouldn’t even be able to look my father in the face if I had extra skin showing. Athletic Tankini at the beach.
I also work with children and never know who is around to photograph me so I think family expectations growing up and my career now, I stay covered.

That makes sense, I hadn't even considered certain careers being an influence!
My family doesn't care too much about modesty but I do dress more modestly when I feel it's more appropriate to do so (time and place and everything lol). Idk if you saw my original post with one of my birthday outfits (I'll post it on my profile for anyone curious) but for example I've got a family dinner this weekend and I'll be wearing a turtleneck sweater dress to that rather than something revealing. Now a family barbecue or summer party? I'll totally dress more revealing for those but a nice winter dinner I'm opting for something more covered 🩷

The only person I go around that i dress modestly is my husband grandmother and even then i still usually have on a croptop. Other than that i don’t dress modestly at all unless im at work. Im friends with lots of parents from my job on fb so they kno how i dress and act outside of work

lol I did see it. I read the comments with my popcorn. 🍿 I’m still laughing at Allison’s comment about our bra size being someone’s husband’s search history. I was cackling. Us ladies with big chests do get overly sexualized and it’s unfair. I used to be so upset trying on clothes with my friends, we all try on the same tank top and I look XXX-rated and they look like little angels.
Everyone should wear what they feel comfortable and confident in!

I relate to that, I tone it down some at his family functions but I'm usually always showing a lil skin lol

right. He’s muslim so im definitely not gonna go around his family behind and chest out and everyone else is there covered up😭😭😭 so i do show my respect. But other than that something always showing 😭😭 not now thoe its too mf cold

Allison is hilarious!! 🤣 love her
& sooo true, I honestly dress the same as I always have and in my late teens/early 20s I was very skinny with an A cup chest. Despite the same exact style I've gotten wayyy more criticism since I've gotten bigger all over lol. Oof and don't even get me started on how many cute tops and bralettes just aren't made for anyone with a chest size bigger than a C cup 😭😭

hate when people say that. Just because my ass out dont mean imma let my kids have they ass out😭😭😭

I've always dressed modestly, up until I was like 20 I had never even worn pants in public. I don't think I've ever shown cleavage in public or at home until I moved in with my husband. I think my biggest struggle is finding non sheer clothing. My family is the same andi think my dad would have the biggest issue but not say anything, mom would definitely saw something

I'm glad you wear what you want despite them! Also idk why some people have such an odd dislike for showing bare baby bumps?? I see it so much differently since it's basically showing off the unborn baby and not necessarily your body?? I bet your maternity pics turned out amazing!! 🫶🏻

I relate to that struggle of finding non-sheer clothing! Idk why fabrics are so thin on new clothing lately??

negative titties is CRAZYYYY🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 but no fr. Like only thing she gonna learn is to love her bosy the way it is th

Some yes n some don’t. My husband for example I can’t wear anything revealing out. He also likes my legs covered but I don’t always do that. I always dress very classy I don’t even own a pair of jeans. I’m was an insurance agent so I have always dressed to impress.

I said yes they prefer to be modest but it's not completely. Like none of them would blink if I posted a picture of me in a bikini or in a crop top tee shirt but I think I'd get a lot of shit if I posted anything more revealing or "slutty". Like a see through top or really short boots shorts or like a clubbing outfit. I'd probably get more hate for showing my tatto that covers the majority of my thigh or my belly button piercing

I love the classy/classic/business look, I just feel it never looks right on me and I look out of place lol. I bet you had the best work outfits!! 🫶🏻

Yes! Can't find any white clothes without showing off my bra or panties, it's the absolute worst

I've noticed that too where some people do pick and choose with things like that, like a crop top is okay to them but short shorts is a no-no. I've always found it interesting! 😊

It's always the white shirts and light colors!! 😭

I would also have to worry about them judging certain bikinis. Like any triangle bikini is inmodest

thanks yes most of my outfits r all brand name. My husband is from India so he was raised with his mom n sis covering everything up. But that’s not me. I will only tolerate so much of his say so lol. I do worry for my daughter tho when she’s older cuz he has already expressed that he does not want her in shorts. 🙄. That will be a convo for another day lol

omg one time I wore a triangle thong bikini and my friend's partner got mad about me wearing it in front of his kid (mind you, I was at my own home in the yard and they followed me outside where I proceeded to pretty much babysit this kid so the dad could relax, he didn't have to be out there lmao) 😅

Im not modest at all! I love booty shorts, cleavage, tight outfits that show my curves and everything in between. I married into a veeeeery conservative family and I tune down a little bit for family gatherings but I don’t wear anything that makes me feel like a nun to please anyone. My husband had a hard time in the beginning but he came to terms. Im brazilian though so for us this is not a big deal.

When you transfer your pics you should add one of your maternity shoot to your profile, I just know they turned out great, I personally LOVE a bare baby bump moment 🫶🏻

Awe I love moms like that!! Everybody needs their hype women! My mom is not like that lmaoo 🤣🩷

I just checked it out!! It's beautiful!! & also very tasteful, they were bothered over nothing lol 🩷🫶🏻

My parents have accepted that I'll be in a crop top without a bra each time I call. But my in laws, who are lovely to me, are very religious and conservative. I appreciate that my husband warned me so I never wear crop tops around them and try to wear clothing that doesn't pronounce my nipples. I've even worn a bra for them once or twice which is a huge privilege 😂😂😂

Amen to that!! Im glad you stick to things you're comfortable in even if you're toning it down at their events, that's the most important thing is feeling good in your clothes! 😊🩷

I'm also anti-bra for myself lol, there was one time I wore nipple covers with a dress to their family Christmas but I don't think anybody could get me in a bra anymore 🤣🩷

ahahahaha I feel like nipple covers are literally made for old men who complain about young women showing nipples because they're triggered and can't have some. And for their wives who get jealous 😆
Like I literally created life and fed my baby (for a short while) with these boobies but GOD FORBID someone actually see the outline of a nipple and make them uncomfortable 😂

lol and then the advertisement about how climate change means it's not gonna be cold enough to get erect nipples anymore? That was the wildest ad I've ever seen 😆😆😆

I've never understood why nipples THROUGH A SHIRT are so controversial but guys can go completely shirtless pretty much anywhere and no one cares???

I'm not a bra wearer but I can see why people like em! Gives you that "no bra" sexy look while still giving your chest a lift!

We are Christian so showing our bodies isn’t a thing we do. So to be respectful to each other and to everyone else we like to be modest. But with that some people are obviously more modest than others. I’m okay with wearing tank tops and stuff like that. I try not to show my stomach but literally everything is crop now days and I have a belly so it’s gonna unfortunately show even though I don’t want to. My mom wants our stomachs covered and to not wear tanks and stuff like that. My boobs are also bigger so sometimes I can’t help that especially in dresses but I’ll cover had much as I can. I want to be respectful lot my self and not have other people and their wandering eyes looking at me. I personally think we shouldn’t be a stumbling block for other people. So I’ll cover my chest and my butt and my stomach when I can but like in swim suits. I’m gonna wear a bikini.

I can respect that! & I agree that there are much less modest options in the stores these days, it definitely makes it harder for people who don't want to show much skin!

in Germany and many parts of Europe it's allowed to be topless by law as a woman! But the few times I've done it at the beach I still got angry looks!
yea literally, she got shit for it too for using climate change in her ads. I just thought it was inappropriate but soooo funny 🤣

I was raised in purity/modesty culture so some definitely feel some sort of way. My thought is if I’m hot I’m wearing shorts and the less fabric the better for all of us cos I’m a bitch when I’m hot. I’m also a breastfeeding mom you’re gonna see my boob regardless of how high or low my top is lol no one ever makes comments at least cos I’ll put them in their place 😂 my grandma did tell me once I looked like a hooker with red lipstick on which I thought was hilarious

I pray for the day that being topless is seen as acceptable for anyone regardless of gender or body 😩🙏🏻

I can respect that. I just don't think people who dress modestly have a right to shame people who don't. My body my choice you know. But as a I said, I ALWAYS dress modestly in front of my in laws out of respect because it's their house. I'm just glad they don't have social media, they'd go nuts over my thong bikini pics 😂😂😂

What is with grandmas and hating red lipstick?! 🤣
I felt this, in the summer I'm wearing the least amount of clothes possible, it's for everyone's sake because, I too, am not nice when I'm overheated 🤣😭

Germany invented nude beaches for that reason. I was walking with my ex boyfriend and his parents at a beach one time and didn't notice we were in the nude beach area. He saw HIS TEACHER, she pulled up her towel real fast to have a convo 😆
But her husband just lay there with his balls dangling smiling at us. My ex's parents' faces were PRICELESS. Will never forget 😂😂😂

I believe there is a time and a place for how you should dress. I don’t show up for work in an outfit I’d go to the club in. I’m also pretty old fashion. It took me years to wear dresses to my job without pantyhose. I also still feel like people should cover their tattoos at my office as well. I work with a lot of clients who are older and have certain beliefs and I believe they should be followed when working with types of people like that. I remember going to my sisters school when she got out and one of the moms their made me feel uncomfortable with how she was dressed. Her shorts couldn’t be shorter and she had a bralette type top and she looked good in it if she would have been at the bar or something but at the school it was inappropriate in my opinion, there was kids there. 🤦♀️

Oh, I can answer that very easily.
My family does not care about me.
🤣😂

I went out in camiknickers or whatever you call them and my cousin was pissed. I was literally just in the front yard coming to say hi to him, it was summer and they were just pajamas to me but apparently they were inappropriate. I was confused and proceeded to smoke my joint before changing but I did go change.
I don’t think I’ve ever posted a provocative or immodest photo, not that I can remember. I don’t mean it any kind of way but I really don’t see a reason to and I also don’t think my family would find it all that respectful either.
I don’t always dress modestly but I think it would make an elder frown if my tiddies were all out out of context (like not a beach pic).
Edit: like a thick camisole and matching shorts, not those old school camiknickers that are basically tiny silk rompers… I have the older style too and do not wear those outside hahaha.

No my family doesn’t care, because my sisters are more revealing than me. Hubby likes me dressed up sexy for date nights he encourages it. The only person that’s ever said anything ever was my MIL who told me to stop wearing heels when I was pregnant…I never did listen to her I was just more careful when I did lol.

i usually dress modestly but if i know shaping skin will piss off people i don’t like i’ll practically have my ass out lol i’m pretty

I already dress modest so I never thought about it but I’m sure that they would say something (a woman not a man), if there was a lot of skin. My public schools didn’t allow above the knee, line of the boob, shoulders/ visible bra straps and no back. Couldn’t wear anything similar to pajamas either. I don’t really want my parents to see my stomach, backside or my chest in any amounts.

My mom cares in a "I could never, how is that even comfy" way but she's not going to talk poorly or judge what we wear lol

I definitely dress more modestly now since I’ve had my baby, but only because I’ve gained weight and don’t resonate with my old style the same. I would always wear tight, cropped type shirts and in the summer shorts and short dresses, but I was very comfortable in my body then, I’m sure if I still was as comfortable I would have kept that style but maybe again one day :) but it also never bothered any of my family maybe only my dad. I also grew up in a beach town in the summer so maybe that also had an influence on me as I was never shamed for walking around in my bikini all day.

My family never told me to dress modestly but I was raised Christian so I sort of just heard it at church. I started dressing less modestly in college and I wear whatever I’m comfy in now

I do value a certain degree of modesty in most settings. My family (and I) would think it was very weird if I wore short shorts or a super low cut shirt anywhere other than the beach
