Ovulating women buy sexier clothing according to a recent study by University of Minnesota. According to the study women who are ovulating are attempting to compete with other women. "If you look more desirable than your competition, you are more likely to stand out".
Apparently non ovulating women made differant choices than ovulating women suggesting that ovulating women were attempting to attract the most desirable males in the area. What are we to make of this study? Along with pheromones it is possible that women and perhaps men are attracted to the opposite sex by unconscious signals that include scent as well as the 5-6 days monthly when a woman is at her fertile best. What can we expect? Perhaps commercials that target women who ovulating and suggesting that now is the time to head to their local sexy clothing and perhaps lingerie boutique or online site to purchase the sexiest outfit. Doesn't this tie in with the perceptions of many men and women that sexual arousal is tied to a man or woman's appearance including clothes.
Perhaps women are dressing for more than themselves when they wear a mini skirt or sexy outfit. But didn't we sense this all along? The study thought suggests that the desire to purchase sexy or sexier clothing is unconscious so she is not aware of it and the male may not either be aware of the attraction although he surely is not unaware that a woman in sexy attire is well, sexy or sexier.
During her five or six day ovulation she is profoundly influenced by her "condition" in regards to her retail behaviour. In effect she is more likely to buy and wear items on the sexy end of the scale. What are we to make of all of this? Do you not have moods, desires, incentives that are not really a little out of the ordinary or is your personality so set and established you can account for every thought and move? Is it really so out of the question that our hormones, genetic makeup and "time of the month control more than water retention, so what does it all mean? Perhaps nothing as this is only one study. On the other hand we are animals after all and over thousands of years of development we often believe that we are superior to animals and these unconscious acts are all about someone else. Regardless, men and women behave the way they do for reasons, possibly completely randomly or there may be a cause and effect which will surely create more food for thought.

Why do Women Love to Wear Sexy Lingerie ?
Why do women want to wear sexy lingerie and why do men want their women to wear it? What causes a woman to want to wear lingerie, look sexy and expose their bodies to men? The answers to these may not be as obvious as it appears?
1. Tradition: What does tradition have to do with it anyway? Well why don't American women wear a burka or a kimono or perhaps grass skirts? Yes I know most women in this country don't wear any of those with the exception of the burka. But women have been wearing babydolls since the 1950's and sexy panties at least since the late 19th century. Tradition has a lot to do with what men and women wear and there is a tradition issue for a lot of lingerie such as stockings, garter belts and so much more. Variations of traditional undergarments make up a lot of women have under their skirts or what they wear in the bedroom. Although styles have changed dramatically there are still many traditions that girls who turn into women feel compelled to follow. Many of women's concepts of sexy lingerie and clothing have evolved over many decades and even a couple of centuries resulting in what she will wear tonight.
2. Popular Culture: What women and men see on television or the movies forms much of what they want to wear or see others wear. MTV, BET, Charlie's Angel's, Kill Bill are just a few of the images that have influenced what women wear in terms of sexy costumes, lingerie, shoes and boots. The skimpier, skankier, sluttier and suggestive they are, the more some women want to find that sexy lingerie, erotic clothing and suggestive outerwear. The media truly suggests to all of us what is cool, hot and sexy particularly when a gorgeous woman with a great body is seen wearing the item.
3. Porn: Ok, admit it guys if you see it in a porn movie being worn by the likes of a busty porn star then why shouldn't your wife look good in it? If it looks great on Jenna Jameson then it sells. She is hot and sexy and she has to wear something for some time doesn't she? While some of the outfits are fairly extreme we offer much of it or many items identical or nearly like it and they are best sellers.
4. Strip Joints: Who else but the strippers and dancers have pushed the envelope when it comes to provocative wear whether it be outerwear, not so much and lingerie? Sexy lingerie and stripper wear are often synonomous as they are skimpy, colorful and worn snug and suggestive.
5. The internet has encouraged the explosion of sexy lingerie sites that is much akin to the porn sites that supported the internet since its inception. Sexy lingerie like porn is at home at the internet as men and women can buy sexy stuff that their neighbors or children don't have to see. You don't have to park in front of a shady establishment and approach a sales clerk to buy a pair of sheer, crotchless panties. Anonynimity is salvation to the lingerie business as you don't have to let anyone know you are a closet fetish fan or enjoy wearing women's panties.
6. Why though do women want to wear sexy lingerie is partially answered by one through five as accessibility. The easier it is to find, the less expensive, the more frequently it is seen the liklihood is greater that women and men will want to buy the product. But why are women more inclined to buy and wear this stuff? Perhaps most simply because it is more accepted than ever. We see women 18 and older buying crotchless pantyhose, panties, micro mini skirts and 5 inch heels every year. Unlike older women they are conditioned to accept these items as normal, near normal and useful. Useful in that they are wearable in and often outside the bedroom. The men in their lives want them and often encourage these women to look outrageously sexy and arousing, at least in the bedroom. They have no or few objections to buying the sexy in lingerie. Social norms have changed in many ways. There may not be many frontiers to explore but that doesn't stop some women from trying.
