Thanks for your post, Lynn. :) Gonna ask you to clarify the above; my understanding is that "sexy" is provocative.
Got a gf or a wife? If you do, it's because she knew how to get her sexy working for you. We don't have to dress like hookers to get guys to notice. We dress like our personality to get a guy like us to notice. Back in my day, (disco era, so you might have to do some googling to catch the references lol), I was dressing as people did to go out to disco. Not Donna Summers fab, (which, for the record "fab" was a later era word lol), more K.C. from K.C. and the Sunshine Band fab. I was both showing what I had and not being immodest. I was in it to dance. I was looking for a guy who was in it to dance, not looking for a guy who was in it to talk me to going out behind the club. (Sadly, I truly understand what Lihle is going through, because most the guys out at discos weren't in it to dance. Many nights dancing with my gfs or by myself. Ended up marrying a guy who can't disco and I can't dance to rock anymore, but I still dance. My grove thing may have broken, but I can't resist a good dance beat. lol)

Three years later, and I was still wearing polyester shirts and high-waist jeans, which was the fashion of the time. (Many people -- gals and guys -- kept telling me to unbutton one more button. I wouldn't. I know who I was after. A guy who wasn't going to judge me by my cleavage.) He saw me in front of the church asking my new pastor if I could add to the announcements. I didn't know it was a Discipleship Movement church, because the discipleship part had just wrecked it. But hubby liked a woman brave enough to ask that in a church where that had been carefully trained out of people.

I got the man I was after. It wasn't intentional for him, but we're women. We really really know how to dress for the man we want, even when we don't know who he is in the crowd. That is our sexy! We don't have to look easy to attract a guy. We don't have to be easy to attract a guy. Matter of fact, we work at our shield thing that Lihle speaks of in another way in a different culture. We know our sexy!

You've been taught the same thing as a guy, albeit, I suspect the information given is different. (I don't know. Never got the opportunity to listen in as guys talk about how to attract women. I just can tell they have to be talking about it, because guys know what they're doing too. And I can see their variations on sexy and can tell who they're after.)

I couldn't flirt if you put a gun to my head. Never figured that art out. Never was interested. The only way I got future-hubby to FINALLY ask me out was to be wherever he was and the second a seat vacated next to him, strategically plant myself there. (And he's Mister Outgoing/Friendly/Listens Well Guy, so everyone wanted to sit near him.) I even had to drink three hot chocolates before I was brave enough to mention I HATE hot chocolate.

We had our mojo working for us. We both got husbands that like us for our inability to flirt. lol

I don't have question marks. Someone is either on my list, or they aren't.

Never had to put anyone on ignore. I either make a friend or dont pay attention to them.Im a ninja level expert at ignoring people.I dont need a button for that.

A few suggestions -

--If you have comments to post to someone because you have been offended, or you think their post is inappropriate, please use the CC email system.

--If you think someone is offended or a member is actually offended by another chatter's post, allow the offended party to handle it.

--Please report anything you feel is inappropriate to the mods.

--And please going forward, please return to the original topic.

(By the way, you can easily ignore a specific chatter's posts and CC emails by going to your CC Chat Mail page, scrolling down to ''Edit Ignore List'' on the left hand side, and following the ignore instructions. This will prevent that person from sending you any CC Chat Mail plus you will not see their posts in the forums.)

Be mindful that Im a dozen meds for the flu. Im gonna try again...I see people here saying they have so and so on their ignore list.I dont put people on ignore.I pm them and see if we can have an understanding and if not I simply dont answer when they speak to me. Ive never put anyone on ignore since Ive been here.I think adults should be able to work things out,especially in a Christian forum.Worked so far for me. Did that make better sense? If not give me a week to get the nyquil out of my system.
