I think some people think too much into it. Contrary to what some men think, not all women dress to impress the opposite sex. As a woman, when I choose what to wear, my aim is to look presentable and tidy and to also feel comfortable. When I wear a short dress in summer, it’s because I like to keep cool and I can’t stand being too hot. It’s not to attract attention. I do wear makeup every time I leave the house, which I’ve been doing since the age of 15. I feel bare without makeup on my face and lacking in confidence. It’s so I feel comfortable in myself.
You are not alone in this view, but what do you think - do you think people who go naked are doing so to attract attention. Or, might it be they just want to feel comfortable, and not be too hot?
Sometimes, the things we do, in our own little mindset - our way of thinking, do not take into consideration, other things around us, or other people around us.
Hence, we are reminded by the apostles, to give consideration to other things, when we are about to do anything.
1) God - 1 Corinthians 10:31
2) Other persons - Philippians 2:3, 4
Sometimes applying the scripture require we come out of our "comfort zone:.
Sadly, many do not want to do that, but it never was easy for any of God's servants to do everything that God requires of us.
Even Jesus had to disown himself, and commanded his followers do the same. Matthew 16:24
The apostle Paul said, the Christian has to "no longer live for themselves". 2 Corinthians 5:15
If we want it easy, we will do what pleases us, and many have chosen to take this course, sadly.
I don't think it's as much a matter of thinking that women are dressing to impress the opposite sex, more than it is a matter of standing out as different form the world, and its loose lifestyles, and conducting oneself as one professing to reverence God. 1 Timothy 2:9
In other words, it's like a belonging.
According to James 4:4, we can belong to the world, or we can belong to God.
When people observe us, can they tell whom we belong to, or represent?
