Dresses are feminine and attractive clothing. However, girls have recently increasingly abandoned truly feminine wardrobe items in favor of trousers, jeans and other practical clothing. Let's consider the reasons for this choice and determine whether we can take this calmly?
Why do girls dress unfeminine?
By simple observations on a busy street, it is easy to figure out that the trend of abandoning skirts is very widespread. For every one girl in a dress, there are 10 women in trousers. There are several reasons for this.
Reference. For the first time, women “changed into” trousers and overalls after the end of the First World War, when they had to work in production shops and offices.
You can find information about innovators in women's fashion in various sources. Coco Chanel, Marlene Dietrich and Yves Saint Laurent were active supporters of trousers on women. At that time, this was not yet a tribute to fashion; pants were worn solely for convenience, in order to move freely while working.
Today the situation is somewhat different and the reasons that prompted girls to refuse feminine dresses are varied:
- comfort;
- climate;
- looking up to men;
- acute lack of time;
- the need to appear strong.
Even today, when women have the opportunity to make their own decisions and work equally with men, they still have to defend their positions.
Comfort
This is the most common reason for changing from a sophisticated dress to comfortable jeans or trousers. In the fast paced life, the girl has to move a lot and get to different places. Moving around in a dress, which often requires adding heels, is not very comfortable.
This is especially true for young mothers and housewives. It is not possible to run after a restless child or carry groceries from the store in a flowing dress and stiletto heels.
Climate
The established stereotype that trousers are warmer forces girls to literally change into trousers with the onset of the first cold weather. Men are longingly waiting for spring and warm days so they can finally admire beautiful women’s legs in dresses and skirts.
Note. Few people think about it, but you can also feel comfortable in a skirt, even in frosty winter conditions. It is enough to buy warm tights or leggings.
Often, even in regions with a mild winter climate, there are a huge number of girls in pants. In attempts to protect themselves from the cold, they lose their femininity and elegance.
Equal to men
Feminist principles and impulses have led to women dramatically breaking into the world of business men. This was reflected in everyday clothing. More and more often, girls began to choose trousers and strict blouses instead of elegant dresses.
Traditional male responsibilities are no longer truly masculine. Women shouldered this burden on their fragile shoulders, trying to be on an equal footing with the stronger sex.
Acute time pressure
A beautiful dress deserves an appropriate frame. A stylish hairstyle, impeccable manicure and well-groomed appearance are indispensable attributes of a feminine look. But modern ladies don’t have enough time for all this.
By replacing the dress with comfortable jeans, and replacing high-heeled shoes with the usual sneakers, you don’t have to worry about your hairstyle, just put your hair in a ponytail. A manicure is enough to keep your nails clean and neat.
The need to appear strong
Modern girls carry a huge burden of responsibility and responsibilities. Most often, there is no strong and strong man nearby who is ready to take on all the problems. Then the woman pulls the cart of troubles and everyday worries herself.
It’s difficult to do everyday, unfeminine things in an elegant dress. Trousers or jeans are much more comfortable. This leads to the fact that the girl loses her main dignity - tenderness, femininity and softness.
Why should you wear dresses?
You shouldn’t completely give up dresses and skirts, even for your own convenience. If the rhythm of life does not allow you to constantly wear this item of clothing, you need to leave it at least for special occasions and weekends.
Note. Having started wearing dresses regularly, the girl quickly gets used to it and no longer feels discomfort.
There are several main criteria why a girl should practice using feminine outfits in her everyday wardrobe:
- it attracts attention, the woman feels bright and desirable;
- this is useful since trousers, especially ultra-skinny jeans, significantly cut off the blood supply to the lower body;
- the opposite sex likes it, men pay more attention to a girl in a dress, look after her in every possible way and give compliments.
All representatives of the fairer sex need to understand that by refusing dresses, they force men to look at themselves with completely different eyes. They no longer consider such a girl weak and in need of protection. As a result, relationships lose their depth and tenderness.

A DISGUSTING article, starting with the thesis that wearing trousers is unfeminine, and ending with men who longingly wait for warmer days to admire women's legs. Why is there not a single article about girls waiting for warm days to admire the perfectly sculpted torsos of men? (It’s probably better for men with fatty torsos not to crawl out at all?)
Sexist articles like this still give people the feeling that women are not human. Here is a man - unshaven, in jeans, in a cassock, in whatever, with whatever legs he wants, lives in comfort and knows no grief.And women are deprived of their femininity if they suddenly want to live in comfort and wear trousers. Read: not feminine -> men don’t like you (and they don’t appreciate your beautiful legs plak plak -> you urgently need to become feminine in order to be liked, and don’t care about comfort and the fact that other people like people because of their qualities, not their legs or torsos). Women are the SAME people as men. They can walk around unshaven and in trousers. Stop creating the image of a virgin goddess!!! Because women are people!
The opus about how only skirts can be feminine is absolutely incredible. Is there a lot of femininity in a monastic robe or a floor-length sack?? What's all this nonsense about skirts requiring heels?
What is this consumer attitude towards a woman as a product that must correspond to some kind of contrived marketing picture??
I don't usually write comments. But the fact that this article was also written by a girl really upsets me.
Women should wear what they feel comfortable in, not worry about their “femininity”, because this is a very unstable concept, but enjoy life IN COMFORTABLE SHOES!
Author of the article, you are promoting misogyny, and this is very bad. Because of such yellow articles, women (and men) in Russia still think that women are not worthy of the comfort that men deserve. And it's disgusting.
As a classmate of mine once said, “There is no clothing more sexy and attractive than a well-fitting business suit—for both men and women.”
What if a “weak and defenseless girl” is less interesting than a confident fighting friend you can rely on?)
That's disgusting. I was especially pleased with the so-called “advantages” of the dresses. Attract the attention of men. Not everyone needs the attention of strangers and not just men, those greasy looks, flirting
Girls wear jeans and pants, whatever they want. A modern girl does not need to please men. It used to be difficult to survive without a husband. And now, we are all equal. And a modern girl doesn’t care what a man wants to see. If you don't like the way girls dress, that's your problem. Girls don't care. There is no point in living to please men. Your interests are much more important
