“I do it for myself, not for the male gaze.”
Calling an outfit “hot and sexy” already acknowledges that it communicates sexual attractiveness. That does not prove every woman dresses solely for male attention, but pretending appearance, social reaction, and validation play no role whatsoever is usually dishonest.

You have a special interest in that person. Maybe, it is just experiencing that. Dating someone that you don’t have a special interest in where you are not ready to have something like that in the open to take it that far. It shouldn’t mean that no one has any self restraint. Of course, it means he doesn’t like you, because if he wanted to he would…
