Be a Lady They Said

Be a lady they said

Your skirt is too short

Your short is too long

Don't show so much skin

Cover up, leave something to the Imagination

Don't be a temptress, men can't control themselves

Men have needs, 

Look sexy, 

Look hot

Don't be so provocative 

Your asking for it

Wear  black, wear heels

Your too dressed up 

Your too dressed down

You look like you've let yourself go

Be a lady they said

Don't be too fat

Don't be too thin

Eat up

Slim down

Stop eating so much

Order a salad

Don't eat carbs

Skip dessert

Go on a diet

God, you look like a skeleton

Why don't you just eat

You look emaciated

You look sick

Men like women with some meat on their bones

Be a size zero

Be a double zero

Be nothing

Be less than nothing

Be a lady they said
