I’m not saying women should run around naked, mind you, but what is the point in dressing in a way to conceal your body when its the mans fault he cannot control his desires.

It’s not our fault we cant wear a bikini without being gauked at. Especially when men can wear speedos and most women look away.

Great article.  I have 3 girls and a boy.  We’ve taught our girls that God made our body beautiful but it is not meant for everyone to see. They are young women who love and trust God, their beauty comes from within.  They are strong in character and not ashamed to be different.  If it is God’s plan that they marry, what a gift and treasure they will be to their husbands as they are now to us.  We should be raising young men also, who value modesty.  I took my seven year old son to lunch one day.  I said, “Joshua, what kind of woman do you want to marry?” “I want to marry a modest woman.” “What do you mean?” “One that doesn’t let her belly button show.” From the example of their fathers and mothers, our children are always watching.
