"modest is hottest"
really?
then why do men still oogle over boobs and thighs, midrifs and any form of scandalous skin exposure?!
*there seems to be a disconnect in boys attitudes and actions *
i've never been dubbed as "risque" since i pride myself on keeping the skin decently covered.
but, may i point out, that i have great legs.
people have said they would kill for these babies. frankly, i don't see their appeal, but the boys sure do like 'em.
i get comments when my jeans are tight or i'm out to sunbathe.
sometimes,i just wanna show them off!
but... being mormon, i sacrifice this desire. for the greater good-- so men won't be tempted or something like that.
plus i "respect" my body.
men don't quite understand the inconvenience of modesty. when the dresses are too short and all the shirts too low, you must make do and improvise-- which typically is not the most fashionable.
sure, i could look like pamela anderson (minus the boobs) easily and for a whole lot less cash, but... if you're not a slut, don't dress like a whore.
all my years i have been fed the potentially true line: "modest is hottest".
now i really wonder, is it?
is modest hottest?
because, {as ali said}
"you never get compliments when you're wearing a cardigan"
..............................................................
think on that, for a while.
it would be so great if boys noticed modesty rather than spandex.
it would give more incentive to stay modest.
which leads to this dilemma of mine:
what should i be for halloween?
because nothing is compatible with modesty. and this year, it might be nice to be noticed.
i'm thinking this
or this
or this
or perhaps even this.
it is even worth it to de-skankify the costumes?
not to worry,
i will wear a shade shirt, leggings, or something to cover up the astronomical amount of skin that would show with any of those costumes, but still...
it makes me wonder if men actually appreciate modesty when they only notice the immodest.

Don't do the modesty thing for them...do it for you. The real men who respect it will be the ones you want around you anyway! AND they will give you compliments on looking good, even though you are covered up.
SO TRUE. Boys will be boys!!!haha
You go girl! If you go with one of these costumes, I would vote for Jasmine. All the other ones just look like attempts at skankiness. We need to figure out our costumes! LOVE YOU!
Haha I love you Beck! Sex sells it's as simple as that, and of course guys oogle at immodesty. Most guys. BUT you don't want most guys, you want the good ones that appreciate modesty. Guys want to date immodest girls but don't want to bring them home to mamma or marry them. You NEED to watch Coco Before Chanel, that movie is amazing! Men like having an imagination and by you being modest it will let them imagine you, if you aren't modest they have no reason to come back for more ;) A wise friend once told me to never give away the store. Think about that. And just one thing about cardigans... men never compliment on them because they aren't sexy or pretty period. Drop the cardigans, and find something else to wear! hahaha LOVE YOU!!!!
