Acharya Prashant advises individuals to introspect on the reasons behind their choice of clothing, distinguishing between functional utility and the psychological need for attention. He acknowledges that dressing for specific activities, such as swimming or athletics, or for physical comfort in certain weather conditions, is entirely valid and personal. However, he points out the contradiction of wearing revealing clothes in sub-zero temperatures, suggesting that such choices often stem from a desire to attract the male gaze rather than for comfort or utility. He argues that relying on one's physical appearance to gather attention is a poor psychological state and encourages women to seek respect through their qualities and accomplishments instead. He concludes that while focusing on the body leads others to look down upon a person, focusing on inner qualities and achievements causes others to look up to them.
