I was reading an interesting article about teen women dressing like sluts, when I came about this part ...

So is it the patriarchy to blame? Is it the behavior of us men seeing women as sex objects that causes these teenage women to do this? Evidently yes, and us men (or at least us men as teen men) must start acting properly so that teen women don't do this ...When I was 13, my wardrobe included quite a few tight, low-cut, and generally tacky items of clothing. I even—and this is very likely the most embarrassing confession I will ever make publicly—once bought a tank top with a glittery Playboy bunny printed on it. Now, in my 20s, I favor shifts and cowl-necked sweater dresses, and I spend a good portion of my free time railing against the patriarchy over drinks with friends.s
But if we really want to prevent girls from being victimized, perhaps we should teach boys to spend less time judging what girls wear and more time listening to what girls say.
