Why modesty by jason evert

Their souls…. Isabel said:. Leanne, I want to take this opportunity to again thank you for the wonderful posts that you put on this website. For those who are seeking the truth, it is not too strict, for it is exactly what the Church has taught, teaches and encourages.

It is what the saints proclaimed in word and deed. For those who are resisting the truth, I am sure that it sounds too strict. For them, they have plenty of loose encouragement from the world…but the reason we are on this website is to get something more for us to aspire towards. And your family pics show that it is possible. Please keep faith and virtue strong! You are very kind, Mary.

And I have much appreciated your refreshing comments. I will be putting out a request for pictures and articles from like-minded Catholic women to contribute to my Spring Maglet.

I hope you will be one to contribute…. December 4, at am. Thank you as well. And please pray for me and my family too. You are commenting using your WordPress.

If a certain kind of dress constitutes a grave and proximate occasion of sin, and endangers the salvation of your soul and others, it is your duty to give it up. O Christian mothers, if you knew what a future of anxieties and perils, of ill-guarded shame you prepare for your sons and daughters, imprudently getting them accustomed to live scantily dressed and making them lose the sense of modesty, you would be ashamed of yourselves and you would dread the harm you are making of yourselves, the harm which you are causing these children, whom Heaven has entrusted to you to be brought up as Christians.

Do you have pictures of Amish women and nuns running through your head? If so, I would like to show you a different definition of modesty and why it is so very important for young girls and this generation. We must have pure ones. This can be a challenge when we desire attention.

Believe it or not, many of the good guys that girls really want to attract are more impressed by your attempt at modesty rather than bearing as much skin that is allowed in a public place. If people are so distracted with the amount of skin you are showing, how hard will it be for them to learn to love you as a person? I am not saying that we as girls need to start wearing floor-length dresses and turtle-necks during the summer.

Instead, you should be leading others to Christ…not only by word, but through your example. As St. Yes, how true is it that women deserve to be respected and treated with dignity regardless of their appearance, decisions or viewpoints. All people do. While we deserve respect, we might not always get it. At an 8th grade retreat I spoke at recently, one of the girls made a comment that absolutely nailed it. She said that modesty exists not just in our outfit choices but in how we carry ourselves.

As she explained, two girls could be wearing the same modest outfit and one could still be clearly trying to get sexual attention, while another carries herself with grace and humility.

During the Olympics, we saw competitors wearing leotards, speedos, spandex and more as a non-sexualized component of their athleticism.
