What would you think of her? Do you judge people by their looks?

For some that is not judging her, your questions and statements are certainly of a judgemental nature. the way you dress should not affect the way you approach people

I try really hard not to judge people by how they look, physically. People can't help what they were born with. How they dress, well they do have a choice in how they dress. Still, how a person dresses isn't a complete indication of who they are as a person, but it is somewhat of a reflection of who they are. It's best not to "judge" others for ANY reason, but we are all human and we all have opinions. If she dresses like that, then apparently she likes to attract a certain type of attention. It isn't exactly the wholesome type of example that I'd like my kids to see, but hey, the world isn't always a wholesome place. There are all types of people in the world and we need to learn to live with all types of people. Would I approach her differently than someone dressed better? I try to treat everyone with respect. How I intereact with a person depends more on how they act than how they dress. Some very well dressed people can be complete jerks and some people who appear to dress sloppily or seductively can be some of the nicest people you will ever meet. So, although how a person dresses can be an somewhat of a reflection of who they are, we really can't know a person based on how they dress. Better to get to know the person first, before forming our final opinion of them.

I'm sure that people would judge her according to what she is wearing. YOu know what they say about first impressions. I would be like~ you go girl. I certainly wish I could wear short shorts again and a shrit with no bra~ heavens, my boobs would be hanging out the bottom!

To be honest, I look more at the effort than the style when it comes to how people dress. I'm less concerned about how much someone's clothing covers than when it was last washed, how wrinkled it is. I can't stand people who just roll out of bed, throw on something that looks like they got it off the floor and don't bother with their hair. To me, no matter how modestly you're dressed, sloppiness is a sign of a character defect. Besides, I'm a guy. I like to see women dressed sexy. I'd be a hypocrite to criticize them for that and that alone. And I have found that people's character shows through their clothing. I've known women who dressed immodestly and radiated self-respect and honor and I've known women who dressed modestly and came across as sleazy.

I would try to find out more about her before judging her. She may be a really nice person and a good mom. Clothes are not everything, and we do all have the right to make a personal statement about ourselves and how we dress, and what not. What the heak we only live once. No offense but some nicely dressed people are not friendly. They can tend to be snobby.

No I would not approach her any differently, I would still be pleasant. But I agree as a mother there should be limitations on what you should wear in public. As mothers we are supposed to be role models for our children and other children who we come in contact with. I DO NOT want my daughters dressing like that do you?

I do my best not to judge people based on appearances. If that woman is a lady of the night, I know that that is her choice and she feels like that is the only way she can get money. Some people do not understand how some woman can do what they do, or why they do it? Some women really fell like it is all that they can do.

There are other things for us to worry about and things not to think too much about, but her's is a case where you don't want to jump into. It may not look to us as we're not judging, but the interpretation of others is not beyond our expectations. I say let her be, we all know that she's a mother and with that, she knows her responsibility and her role in life. Sometimes, it's better to keep our miuth shut and not say a single word at all..

Well I would introduce myself and ask her if we could meet up some other time. Hopefully I would be able to tell her during that time. People dress how they feel or because they think tha certain styles look good for them no matter their age. I have one living across from my house. She wears tights and tight blouses all the time but I say if it embarrasses me I would avoid her company and talk to my child about that style of dressing and see if I can find away to tell her what I think about her dressing in a very kind and gentle way. Probably she will tell me to Mind My Own Business but atleast I would have tried.

Nope. She might have a good reason for dressing like that, who knows. I would treat her differently if she had a bad attitude/was extremely slow :P

I would be kind to her, seeing as I didn't know her, but i would end the conversation as soon as possible and explain to my child that that is not something that should be execptable and that i am very sad for that woman and his child. if i got to know her, i would probably have to say something about the way she was dressing and how it seemed to everyone else knowing that she had a child. it's not right. once you become a mother, things should automatically change. you shouldn't dress like a hooker. you can still look nice and not come across as a hooker. it not only embarasses people around them it probably embarasses their child as well.

At first I'd think to myself "What in the world is she wearing?!" Not because she's a mother, but because she has all her stuff hanging out for all the world to see. I live near a beach, so I see hundreds of half naked people when I go out to run errands, and I always wonder why they feel the need to wear such skimpy things in a place of business. I know it's hot outside, but come on. Anyway, I'd treat her the same way that I treat everyone when I first meet them, since I wouldn't know what kind of person she is. She may be a really sweet woman who came from a family that never bothered teaching her about modesty. I actually know a few people making 6-figure incomes that let thier girls dress in daisey duke shorts and belly shirts. I'm talking 15 year old girls, here. Later, I would talk about the woman's clothing with my kid. I'd ask what he/she thought about it, then explain my view and why I felt it was inappropriate.
