    Do uniforms effect you? If so, why do you think this is?

    I'm unsure as to what exact causes it - but, I've found that the uniform just adds to how attracted I am to someone. If they're hot out of uniform, then they're gonna be dream material in uniform. If they're cute out of uniform, then they're gonna be really hot in uniform. I've noticed this a lot more with guys, since we're the ones who usually wear uniforms, but it also happens a lot with girls as well.

    Girls - cheerleaders, school girls, soldiers catch my attention.

    Guys - jerseys, protective (cops, firefighters, etc.), soldiers catch my attention.

    Why does "the uniform make the man"?

    (Interesting/funny story: I had to shoot a film in college, I cast a guy I looked up to & had a crush on as a soldier - suffice to say I sometimes lost my train of thought lol, one scene had him running along a beach escaping gun fire...)

    Some people just like how guys look in uniforms. For me I like the way guys, and myself look in wetsuits and lycra.

    I think uniforms are visually appealing because they tend to make the person stick out amongst other people. They catch your eye; your brain takes it from there. Plus, some unies are specifically fitted for the person. That will also add to the appeal, at least for me if does. :icon_wink

    A uniform is a symbol of a person's status in society, and status is sexy. In the evolutionary era of adaptation a man's group status was perhaps the most attractive part about him. Studies have also shown that when a researcher is in uniform people will perform knowingly unethical actions because a man in "uniform" told them to do it. uniform effect people more significantly than we assume.
