So wear one that fits?

when I’m in one I feel awkward and not really like myself.

So in those cases, don't wear a suit.

, in past relationships, my female partners have reacted very positively when I’ve worn suits. They seemed genuinely attracted to that version of me and encouraged

there's lots of reasons they might like it. Particularly if you don't usually look smart or make an effort.

But like, you probably also have preferences of what you like to see partners into, regardless of their own preferences?

Some do. Some don't.

I've known women over the years that have hated, I guess some depends also on whether their interest is blue collar or white collar.   But like, I guess - what is your normal every day attire.  If someone agreed to a date with you, what would be your definition of 'making an effort' which is also authentic to you?

"I find suits genuinely uncomfortable to wear" - get one tailored. I used to think this, then had to buy a new one, bought something good. It was a revelation, that suit was amazing. So get one tailored, you'll always need a suit - weddings, funerals, court appearance, whatever... and a good one will look way better too. Go online and get a tailor to come make you one, it'll cost you double what an off-the-peg cheapo one would cost, but will be worth every penny. You only need one for a lifetime after all.

As a construction worker, playing in the sand and dirt for a living, but we clean up nice. I hate wearing pants. I live on Cape Cod in Massachusetts USA 🇺🇸.. its a sand bar, I wear shorts all year long, yes, even shoveling snow. But, I think that us wearing suits, is the equivalent to ladies preparing to go out of the house, putting make up on to look good. It has the lady feeling fresh and fly... ibwore a suit 3 times in my life... all were for weddings. I'd rather have shorts and a t-shirt for comfort, but if my ladybis going out with me.... I'm not going to go out looking like a troll. I'll doll up floor her too. It's not about us, its about seeing the women of our lives, happy.
I hope this helps buddy.
Happy New Year to all reading this.
Be blessed

Lots of comments here that suits are "making the effort". I see it as the opposite - it's a cop-out. It's easy to look good in a suit, it's much harder to look good in something else, and much better if you can both look good AND feel comfortable .

I've seen a lot of responses that are close as to why but no one has nailed it (IMO) The attraction isn't necessarily the suit it's the suitability for power exchange, power exchange is about submitting to someone that has their life together, it represents good choices and worthy of handing over control. The idea a submissive just hands over control to anyone would be reckless, she must know he's capable, conducts his own life with good decisions and success long before she will hand over control and direction of her life. I would offer the suit offers the idea this person has this quality and capable of her submission. Cheers 🥂 14R

bc it’s sexy, a man in a suit is a power position

Lots of simplistic takes on "a suit symbolises a person with their life together". This is 2025. Id have thought the symbolism of someone with their life together is....someone with their life together. I do understand symbolism, and it doesnt hurt anyone. But its a shame, really. I have a very well paid job, house, family, dog etc and I've not worn a suit once in my life except my wedding. Power is the ability to convey power whatever you're wearing. Suits kinda just convey borderline psychopathy these days, IMHO.

You missed the point, it's "the idea it represents" is attractive and why,

[Lo****]

I can't stand a man in a suit. Add a tie, it's even worse. Its just a preference. Be your authentic self.

For some it is the appearance of status. A lot of people period treat people in suits differently. When im in a suit for work, I get treated differently at the same spots I hit daily than when im just in jeans and a t shirt. Its kinda bogus really. Im the same man but treated differently. Cops look at me differently, everything. Its such a screwed up concept. I prefer the people that treat me the same either way, even if it were to be that they treated me like shit.

The only men who look good in suits are the ones who look good in suits lol
Not every man does, and just putting one on doesn’t increase attractiveness imo. Maybe treat it as a cosplay when you do wear one?

To answer more directly though… men generally find women attractive when they are wearing sexy dresses or heels or a host of other UNCOMFORTABLE items. The suit or tux is the man’s version of this. It’s just dressing up and “looking nice”, giving off the impression that you practice self care, that you are making the extra effort and have confidence and are in control. It’s just an image and the idea it represents due to what media has sold us.

Confidence can make anything sexy though, so just be yourself, but it never hurts to put in a little extra effort, even if it’s uncomfortable to wear.

Also…. That tie makes a great leash to pull him into you 😮‍💨

Hi there.... Disciplinarian in a suit here....

The attraction is never about the fabric. It is about the details and what they signal. The intentional pairing of a tie, the clean lines, the way everything sits exactly where it should. A suit represents order, discipline, and control.

It shows a man who is deliberate, steady, and self possessed, someone who knows how to carry responsibility and presence without needing to announce it. The same can be said for anyone that enjoys shibari, bondage, leather or other forms of similar visual cues that expand on someone's kink.

The suit does not create the confidence. It reveals it.

As for the discomfort, that usually comes from poorly fitted, off the rack clothing. A well tailored suit feels natural, even grounding, especially when it is part of your everyday life rather than something you put on occasionally.

suits mean *** and power and status!

It’s a costume just like a uniform. Be a man that exudes confidence and it won’t really matter what ur wearing. If the woman is worth having that is.

[DS****]

They think they’re rich ? Lol who the fuck knows

I really like a man in a well fitted suit especially when they present themself in a manner that they were brought knowing there manners .To me personally that mindset it projects convince stability and there mother would not tolerate a bumm for a sun
