But aren't you being "indecent" to this guy who was suck an sleaze ball? I don't condone his actions by I kind of understand them ... If you wear something outlandish or revealing ... Expect people to take notice.
FWIW I have never snapped a picture of anybody or posted it on Facebook or POW. Please do not insinuate that I do. Judging is part of human character, we all do it, don't try to play high & mighty & pretend you don't.

I got a mosquito bite over my Achilles tendon and it's really annoying 
My vent: my boss is an asshole that has officially turned a fun job (working the live races here at the horse track) into a not fun one anymore.
Also fiancée has been sick (sore throat, cough, chills congestion) & now my throat is getting side now too ... great.
Its not about hiding it, its about being mature and empathetic enough to not make decisions based on judgements and to work on NOT making them. Its about when you do find yourself judging, trying to look at the other side, realizing you may not have all the facts or the whole picture, etc. I make them way less now then I used to because I work on it.
Now, I am still an extremely opinionated person and definitely have strong feelings on issues...but I work really hard not to pigeon hole people based on those and without a doubt I know there are very few, if any, black and whites in this world, its all shades of grey.
And yeah, I could give a flying flip about what someone else is wearing, looking like, etc. Certain outfits I may give a second look to but thats it. I would never say oh well I can be a rude asshat and stare because they are "asking for it"

I do think that if you dress in an unusual or attention getting way it shouldn't come as a shock if you get some looks as a result. I think it's disrespectful to say something to the person or openly mock them though-that's just douchy. We are visual creatures though and visual creatures look at stuff....
I have a friend who has even less fashion sense than I do (and that's an accomplishment), and I've gotten used to how she dresses and don't even notice it anymore. DH went with us somewhere recently and afterward was like, "So what was up with her outfit"... Some people just notice that stuff, but he would never have said that TO her though.
The right of freedom of speech does most definitely include the right be say assholeish things to people though, it's not just respectful debate and contructve criticism that is protected-lol.

The lady working at the gas station near my house is being held hostage at gunpoint by her freaky creeper ex, there are snipers crawling all over the place, and I hope she gets out of it alive. It's been several hours now. If you guys have chazvibes to spare for her, please do. She's a really sweet lady and deserves to live.

I don't know why bad things happen to nice people

^This.
And...I have no fashion sense, I rely on my little sister fior help in that department when I want to make an effort to look nice, otherwise, it's whatever is clean in the laundry pile. Colors be damned. I just don't care what others think about the way I dress. I make sure I am comfortable in it and other than that, who the **** cares.
