The teachings of the Bible never become out of date. I trust and respect her plenty. It is simply that the man makes decisions in a household.

I'm not going to read the whole thread but a person who doesn't want their significant other to show some cleavage, muscle, leg, etc is insecure about himself/herself and should get out of the relationship because he/she will just drag their partner down with them.

Females are not inferior to males man. I doubt your using sarcasm though
Its tradition, and a part of most religions. I ask her opinion and listen, but in the end decisions are mine.
Which is exactly why I am against organized religion due to such idiotic injustices and inequalities. But hey, whatever floats your boat. She's the one putting up with it. Have fun; your guys choice in the end.
I presume she stays at home all day, is barefoot, a baby-factory, and cooks in the kitchen, cleans the house, and abides your every command as well? Come on man. There are numerous, i.e. the majority, of single-mothers rearing children without "The Man of the House"
If your wife/gf/whatever works does she just give her income over to you for you to spend for whatever is best for the household? After all you are the man.
Normally I don't care but I do see some holes in your logic.
No, she's an accountant. We combine our finances. She pays for her car and student loans, and then we put the other money wherever it is needed.

I agree with you, I suppose.
My girlfriend is pretty busty as well, and I'm not a big fan of her wearing showy clothes.
Not because it's some teritorial thing, though, I'm not a big fan of getting attention from people, and wearing stuff like that gets attention from all the wrong people, usually.
I tell her I don't like it. It's not just that, though. Big heels that click loudly when she walks, short skirts, all that stuff I'm not too fond of, at least not when we go out to the mall or something.
It's more my personality than anything else. I'm not very charismatic nor do I like being the center of attention. It's hard not to get attention from sleezy guys when you're holding hands with a girl with her boobs popping out.
All that aside, I ask her to wear something less showy, and she's usually cool with it. If not, then I just have to deal with it. No big deal.

here is a bit of advice for you... and for every other guy here who posts similar threads...
"OMG! is this ok, should this be a problem?"
i have had a drink, so forgive my forwardness.. but here it is...
if you want a girl who wears high neck shirts, find one.
find a girl who does exactly what you want her to do, act the way you want her to act, look the way you want, dress, listen to music, spend money, decide on children... all of it... if it is important to you, find a girl who thinks the same.
dont try to make someone agree with what you think, act the way you want, dress as you see fit...... STOP expecting a cat to act like a dog...just find someone who has the same opinion... easy as that. if it is a problem for you and not for her... you are either over reacting or with the wrong person.....
pick your fights.... it might be a silly compromise. if it is a major thing, and she doesnt agree.. find someone who does. there are billions of ppl on the planet. if you are patient, you will find the PERFECT one. until then... live with it, or find someone else.
no offense, i promise. but there are eleventy billion relationship threads here. and the bottom line is that if you dont agree and cannot compromise without feeling like you are losing youself, find someone with the same views.
edit: my opinions/remarks are not only geared towards the guys,. I think the same about women. if you want a guy who comes home every night, is devoted. knows how to do laundry, is $$$ responsibility... dont pick a bar hop cause he is hot and then complain he doesnt do the above.

Yep, you have to ask why she would want it all hanging out. I don't really care for the attention whore type.
yay.. i might win an award w/ this thread!!.. w00t...! :evil:

Who says you can't change tradition? And most religions were formed by men in a time period when it was customary in most cultures for males to be the dominant ones in the relationship and in society.
Society's changed, though, and I think you're lucky to have the girlfriend you do because I don't think most women (myself included) would put up with that macho crap. Good relationships are formed on trust and mutual respect. You can't really respect someone (imo) if you don't see them as an equal.
And as far as the OP goes, you can talk to her about how it makes you feel when she wears revealing clothes, but you shouldn't be telling her what to wear. My mom's first marriage was very abusive and over stupid things like her hair and her clothes. I'm glad she had the sense to leave and I hope that if your relationship ever escalates to that point that your girlfriend has the guts to leave, too.
Yes dear.

Yes ma'am
I LOVE it when guys pull one verse of scripture to favor their power and either read no further or just ignore what comes next.
the bible says that the man is the head of his household and the woman must submit....
the very next scripture says that man is supposed to live his life to make the happiness of his woman his top priority...
yes... you get to make the final decisions, but those decisions are supposed to be based on what pleases the woman.
She submits to you ONLY because you are living to please her.
