When Does Sexy Become Slutty?

By Jeanene James October 7, 2009 2:09 pm

Rihanna see through

There is actually a very thick, definite line separating sexy from slutty.  Unfortunately many people are blissfully unaware of this.  Today’s hottest celebs often get caught on the wrong side of the line when they try to push their sexiness too far and end up looking cheap. Lately, Rihanna, who we once hailed as a style icon, has been falling short of our haute expectations.  For such a young beautiful girl, she seems to feel some compelling urge to bare her nipples, flash her g-strings and leave as little as possible to the imagination in the most unflattering ways. While RiRi can get away with this type of behavior unscathed, us regular folk are not so lucky.

Here are 8 rules to help you master the delicate balance between slutty and sexy:

1.) If your mother taught you that its a private part, and we can see it in public, you look slutty.

2.) If you have seen it on a dancer in the local strip joint, its probably not a good idea.

3.) If it looks like it was made to fit your younger sister instead of you, its too small. If its too small, it won’t cover all of your lady parts and you will look slutty.

4.) Just because you saw a girl wearing it in the club scene of the hottest rap video of the moment, doesn’t mean its a look worthy of being duplicated on you at a real-life club.  They get paid to look slutty. You don’t.

5.) Showing peaks of sexy lingerie can be sexy. wearing an entire lingerie set as an outfit? Slutty.

6.) Less is not always more. A bikini top is not a shirt. Neither is a bra. Furthermore, a leotard is not an outfit. Do not let Beyonce fool you. If you wear a one piece bathing suit to go anywhere other than the pool/beach, you will probably look less sexy and more slutty (not to mention stupid).

7.) Having a nice shape is sexy. Grossly OD-ing on plastic surgery to push the limits of “nice curves,” is slutty.

8.) Nude photo shoots can be sexy when tastefully done and kept private.  Having your naked body floating around the net is not sexy.

    ANYTHING SEE-THRU, SHOWING BUTT CRACKS AND CHEEKS, TRAMP STAMPS, BEARING OVER 1/3 OF THE BREAST (CHEST), IF YOU CAN’T WEAR IT TO YOUR MOTHERS’, FATHERS’ HOUSE OR THEIR WORK PLACE TO MEET THEIR BOSS, YOUR BOSS, TO CHURCH OR TO A CHILD’S SCHOOL IN FRONT OF THEIR TEACHER THEN IT’S NOT APPROPRIATE ATTIRE IN DECENT COMPANY. NOW @ THE CLUB (OR FOR HOOKER WEAR) THAT’S A DIFFERENT STORY, LOL. AS FOR MEN MOVE YOUR HAT AND PULL UP THOSE SAGGING PANTS PLZ!

    Maybe when Chris Brown gave Rihanna the “pimp hand”, it really was about the money. Don’t hate the messenger, but if it walks, talks, and looks like a duck, then you have a duck. I guess with Chris, Dave Chapelle wasn’t around to give her a break. LOL

    4and 9 makes me don’t want to get up from the chair LOL, but the others (especialy Little Kim) to me don’t qualify as sexy or buttafaces(like Amber), and are no better than the women on the street….RiRii dressing is now questionable…Those looks are better off behind closed doors(and some of you ladies looks better than these phoneystars)….Another peeve are those sweatpants with ‘ANGEL” OR “SEXY” on your asses….some guy will get too excited and only want to get up on that….that’s s**tty. too!

    No her look isn’t cute. but thats my opinion. Little kims’ look in the pic isn’t sexy or s**tty its just a hot mess. Eve is a mess but not bad. Coco’s is just as wrong and is a hot mess, too tight in da crotch. The video women hmmm to me it was print work where as the others wear it out in public.

    and what does white women have to do with it? sexy or s**tty comes in all races.

    I don’t see anything wrong with any of the photos. You black women love to hate on one another. What’s the difference between sexy and trashy? Simple, according to you women: If YOU wear it, you’re sexy. If ANY OTHER woman wears it, she’s trashy. To go further, most of you are too fat and/or uptight about yourselves to be sexy, so you bad-mouth and drag-down Rihanna because she’s not. You guys crack me up, but that’s typical behavior of you all…

    I can agree with all photos. HOWEVER, pic #2 of Eve was not s**tty IMO. She looked hella good and if I had the body I would wear something like that. She was not exposing any “private” parts and it fits her properly. The vest could have came in a little tighter in the chest area to squeeze in the boobs but that’s about it. This list was pretty accurate otherwise.
