Ok, I'm starting to feel a bit weird, being part of all these threads about women's clothing, but anyway...
cebele is right - sexy is not about showing skin or boobs hanging out. Sure - guys will look at boobs that hang out because... well... they're boobs.
BUT: My GF and I went to a friend's wedding early last year. She wore a long dress that showed off her hips without clinging to them and completely hid her legs - only showing their shape when she moved (yes, I spent most of that night staring at her. I remember the finest detail). It was cut high in front, completely covering her boobs and then some, but the back and shoulders were bare. I couldn't keep my eyes of her. I thought she looked stunning. Her friend wore a tight low-cut dress that showed a lot of leg. She had a gorgeous body, but she looked cheap and awkward beside my GF, like a girl who showed off her body because she didn't have anything else to offer (or didn't believe she had).
A younger me would have gone for the friend. Admittedly, that younger me had very little respect for women. He would probably have tried getting into that tight dress and then lost her phone number. Thank god that younger me grew up at some point, and learned to appreciate confident women who respect themselves.
Which one do I want my daughter to grow up to be? Definitely not the one in the tight dress.
I hope my currently relationship lasts. One of the reasons is because I think my GF is a good role model for my daughter. I hope she can help my daughter understand that the way to be sexy is not by showing off as much of your body as possible, but rather... hell, I'm not even sure what it is, but I know it when I see it, and my GF has it...
