This is Why It's Time to Stop Judging Women Based on Their Clothes ...

By Jennifer • May 2, 2015 • MD

We do it all the time, sometimes without even meaning to - judging each other based on how we're dressed. We know on a logical level that it's plain silly to think a woman is a prude because she's wearing flats, or a prostitute because she's wearing a low-cut top, but these three images, created by artist Theresa Wlokka (and students at the Miami Ad School in Germany), drive that point home.

1. Your Shirt

Your Shirt Yes, wearing a turtleneck doesn't make you a prude, any more than leaving a few buttons undone makes you a slut. And where does a girl find that halfway-between-bore-and-tease top? Please.

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

2. Your Skirt

Your Skirt It's just as ridiculous to measure the worth of a woman against the length of her skirt. If she's wearing a short skirt, maybe she's warm? Maybe she likes her legs? Who are we to judge?

Your Skirt It's just as ridiculous to measure the worth of a woman against the length of her skirt. If she's wearing a short skirt, maybe she's warm? Maybe she likes her legs? Who are we to judge? Perhaps, she's *expressing herself*, feeling confident, or embracing her *sense of style*. **Clothing choices** should not dictate a woman's value or merit. Society needs to move past archaic *judgments* and recognize that a woman's autonomy in her fashion doesn't equate to a moral or ethical statement. Everyone deserves respect.

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

3. Your Heels

Your Heels Every time I see a woman in high heels, I'm sorely tempted to ask her to teach me how to walk in them without wobbling - I'm certainly not judging her character.

I have a serious love/hate feeling toward these images, but I suppose that's the point, right? How do you feel about these photos? Have you ever been judged on what you were wearing?

Frankly, I wear what I feel like and don't care what other people think - I wear things for me, not for others pleasure :P

Grow up as in we should all already know this? Coz we should but many of us do need to be reminded every now again. If u think they should b judged then maybe you are unhappy with your life but that's still not ok to make others lives less comfy.

I wear what I like to wear and I know that there's times I need to cover up more than some times and I do. I dress the way I feel comfortable and happy. If nobody likes the way I dress who cares. I'm not changing

I wear the clothes that I wear for ME, not for others. If I feel that I look fabulous, I feel fabulous. As Taylor Swift says, the haters gonna hate! So ladies, wear what you want. Wear clothes for YOU and for NOBODY else.

One of my favorite articles, as I have suffered great judgement on my clothing choices because I looked "like a boy". I have learned to become comfortable in my clothes and skin now and I'm happy. I really love this article and stand by it's message of non judgment on women's clothing choices.

Some people did read the article, me being one of them. Just because we have a different opinion doesn't mean we just skimmed through it and looked at the pictures. The whole excuse that women can wear short skirts cause they're hot is really kind of silly co pared to the fact that meant wear way more clothes in summer and don't use an excuse to shed layers in daily life.
