A very common misconception among men is this..
Men assume whenever a woman dressed up...that woman sole purpose
is to seduce men.
In reality ....Women dress up to make themselves feel good- to
build self-esteem , then validation from men is a side bonus.
That's why you see a lot of women after a breakup, after they
hit rock bottom and wants to lift themselves up.. they go and get
new hair cut, go shop for new clothes, put on nicer make-up.
Doing so will in-turn attract men.
In a long relationship, when she feels too secure, too comfy in
her comfort zone, she don't focus on her looks anymore. She start
to focus more on other stuff less superficial, like her family, her
career etc........ Men then starts to find her boring, and less
attractive as before, because most men are superficial.
In the absence of men, women will still want to look nice, for
themselves.. only difference is their fashion sense will no longer
be skewed towards men's preference.
Perhaps in a women only world, her dressing will be more
colorful, more nature inspired, more elaborate....
hmmm, quite true, i think i agree with your thoughts.
