Today, I asked my dad if he thought my dress was nice, and if guys would go for me. He replied, "Shit, depends on how drunk they are." FML

I'm having a hard time trying to figure out why you'd ask your FATHER whether he thought guys would be "into" you based on what you were wearing. Probably not how he wants to view his daughter. Just saying.

I hope i'm not the only one who finds it creepy that you're asking your father if guys will basically want to sleep with you. Why would you want your father to look at you in a "does she look hot/sexy" kind of way that you're hoping boys will?

I wonder if it matters how old she is

If she was a little girl it would be harmless, as she's probably meaning "do i look pretty" which is a normal thing to ask a parent, though of course they're biased and will always say yes. I think once they hit the teenage years they stop wanting to be "pretty" and start wanting to be "sexy" so any age on from a teenager is what i think is creepy. Given she uses FML (and likely had to have some decent grammar and spelling to even get through moderation) I'd guess at her being at least about 14/15 so definitely in the creepy zone.

Then I would put hair grow in his shampoo. That wouldn't really be a good prank, and he probably wouldn't have shampoo since he's bald. I don't know, guess that's why I'm a professional dumbass.

that's not a question you ask your dad. all dads are thinking is, no one better look at my daughter. that being said, he should have told you that you look great.

That statement has truth independent of how you look so don't worry about it!

It could be true, but sorry OP I'm sure you look beautiful

Complete honesty. You asked a stupid question, only deserving a stupid answer.

It's ok my dad would have said the same thing?✌️?✋?

YDI for asking a dad and not expecting a dad response.

As a dad I get what he was doing there. No dad wants to hear that his daughter wants to look good for guys. He could have been much more tactful about it though.
