Advice | Carolyn Hax: Husband keeps pushing modest spouse to wear sexier clothes
Hello, Carolyn: My husband lately has been pushing strongly for me to dress sexier and more provocatively. In a way, it is flattering that he likes my figure. The problem is, I’m a pretty shy person who prefers to wear modest clothing. I’ve never been comfortable wearing low-cut dresses, which are his favorites. Loosefitting, flowy and mostly covered has always been my jam. I have nothing against people who wear flashier stuff — in fact, I envy their confidence — but it’s just not my preference.

Washington alderman to run for mayor
WASHINGTON (25News Now) – A Washington alderman plans to announce on Friday that he’s running for mayor, while the current mayor said he’s undecided whether he wants another term.
Mike Brownfield has served 11 years as Ward 1 alderman and is director of facilities services and safety at Snyder Village Retirement Community in Metamora.
Gary Manier has been Washington’s mayor for 23 years and says it’s “pretty early” in the process. He said candidates don’t start getting citizens’ signatures on nominating petitions until the fall. The election is next April.
Brownfield said he’s not getting in the race to specifically oppose Manier. He said they’re on the same page on a lot of issues, although there are some differences.
Brownfield said Manier is a “great guy.”
The alderman makes his mayoral plans official 10 a.m. Friday at Five Points Washington.
