I am self admittedly a closet fan of the generation-ago author John Molloy and his book Dress for Success. Not that I am a success, nor care to be. But he also went into detail about the impressions that certain clothes give. And colors. Friendly? Wear light blue and khaki. Beige-ish khaki, not the yellow-ish. Power? Dark suit, white shirt. Stuff like that.

Slutty? No doubt women want that at times. My point is there is a difference in slutty. Like a short khaki skirt and light blue shirt vs a dark suit with a really low-cut white shirt?

Maybe I'm just old, but I really think there is something to all of that. And for sure, I think you are a cutie. But I would look at you in a different way than a gay guy, even maintaining all due respect for you.

Thank you, you always make me think.
