No image of today’s fashions is appropriate for this website — here’s a butcher instead.
THE clothing women wear today is often just as bad or worse than nudity. In fact, it may draw more attention to the flesh than not wearing any clothes at all. Nothing is left to the imagination. We live in an open air meat store. I am truly tempted to envy the blind. Think of the many things they do not see.
Isn’t it endlessly ironic? Feminism, which so objected to the “objectification” of women, brought on stunning objectification. All women are free — oh, what exhilarating freedom — to look like whores or slabs of beef. It’s okay to degrade women as long as women do the degrading, right? Even little girls are dressed as streetwalkers, conformist slaves to indecent “fashions.” Any one who complains of this abuse of the young, promoted by Marxist corporations, is considered an outrageous prude or a public enemy of human freedom. There are few things more appalling than the mothers and fathers who have no problem with their daughters being sold on the butcher blocks of fashion. There is one thing almost as appalling — and devastating to the eye — and that is, the grandma who dresses the same way.
What’s next? Grass skirts and bare breasts? Whatever it is, we know it will be worse and will further lower the dignity of women and the entire tone of what’s left of society. Ugliness — it’s not the human body that is necessarily ugly, but its promiscuous display, violating all the civilized terms of intimacy — surrounds us. It is so pervasive most people can’t see it. We are drowning. We are suffocating. We are choking. Ugliness and immodesty this bad must be fatal. Immodesty tears out the very heart of civilization, which is founded on the sacredness of even human flesh and the maintenance of intimacy in a whirlwind of commerce and depersonalizing lust. Feminist, thy name is traitor. Handcuff thyself.
In closing, here are some relevant thoughts from the late Dolores Rose Morris, writing in 1990 when things were better than today:
Most girls today wear some of the most hideous clothing in public and even in church. They paint on blue jeans which are so tight, it appears that they have blue skin instead of any clothing on at all. Their mothers defend these fashions by saying, “Well, they are covered up, aren’t they?” Then these mothers wear the same styles to “keep up” with their daughters, compounding the insanity by giving bad example, and by degrading themselves. Girls wear shorts and leotards which reveal everything and leave nothing to the imagination. They wear the latest beach styles which make lingerie appear modest. Nearly naked is now accepted as “modest”, or even “cute”. Read More »
