Hi Vi,
I am a Beaver Believer, so nothing is impossible!
And I too dress on the edge between 'flirty' and 'slutty'. I dress more like my spiritual age than my chronological age. My skirts are too short, my tops are too sheer, my nipples like to breathe.
I get nothing but positive reactions here on the 'wet side' of the state, which corner are you in? It does sound like cowboy country if they go out of the way to harass you.
Welcome to the party!
Love,
Jin
