        .Incredibly disappointed in @missmayim for this. I was raised to believe "modesty" was righteous. Women should be in constant fear or guilt.

        But who benefits from this doctrine? Women? Sorry, nope. God? Debatable. The patriarchy? Absolutely. Scared/guilty women=easier to control.

        Some of my earliest memories involve the policing of my sexuality, before I even understood what that was. Church taught "immodest" = EVIL.

        I never wore sleeveless shirts, two piece swimsuits, short shorts. Never went off alone with boys. Did that stop me from being abused? NOPE.

        Were boys taught this modesty? HELL NO. Church says men are godly by design. Everything they do is sanctified. Even rape, within marriage.

        The next time you congratulate yourself for "shielding" your sexuality with modesty, ask yourself what you're hiding from. And who. And why.

        We attack one another instead of staying focused on them. Modest, provocative, demure, outrageous, we need to embrace each other as women.

        Well-intended piece, but please don't fall into the trap of thinking dressing modestly protects against assault. It's not about that.

        Exactly. She tried to equate her escape from assault with her non conventional looks, but women of all shapes and sizes get assaulted
