Abstract
Fashion, nowadays among others, has ostensibly been a defining factor of class
differentiation among university students. Most students, particularly the females,
struggle daily to meet up to these standards. Whereas modesty, courtesy, virtue and
chastity among others are the terms which characterised the dressing of parents in a
decade ago, modernity seems to have swept all these away and recast them in new
relative meanings. In the light of this the study sought to find out the effects of women’s
suggestive dressing on men’s behaviour and judgement. The study adopted survey as a
research design. The study population involved students from University of Education,
Winneba (Kumasi campus), Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology,
University of Ghana, Ghana Telecommunication University College and University of
Development Studies. A sample size of 250 students was considered for the study. The
constituents were made up of 125 females whereas the males were 125. Stratified
sampling technique was used to group the population into sub strata. However, simple
random sampling was used to select the five (5) universities. The study used
questionnaire as the data collection instruments. The study found that there are
different attires worn by female students on university campuses. Aside these varieties
of dresses lay the motives for which female students wear them that culminates into
the different attitudes men put up towards them. That is to say, most male students get
tempted to lust after female students by their dressings. This affinity has the possibility
of leading to promiscuous lifestyle on campuses. Based on this conclusions were made
and recommendations included the issue that there should be institution of control
measures on the university campuses to help monitor and direct females students to
dress well.
