I usually think in terms of hot/sexy vs pretty/beautiful. Modesty is all about adorning yourself in a way that reflects your interior beauty. There's nothing wrong with looking good, in fact, choosing to make yourself look ugly is just as bad as being immodest, it just becomes an issue of immodesty when a person's clothing choices say "look at my body" instead of "look at me."

the171 started it! lol idk, modesty just seems so misunderstood and as a result feels crazy controversial these days. I figured we could manage one serious explanation post in the midst of all the joking about immodesty.

dude....i get it. tattoos are "dirty" or some such nonsense, you think. is that it? do you have it out of your system now? okay, so since you're so fond of telling people to take a hike - how about you take a hike out of my immodest thread?

These are the shoes I'm wearing on Christmas Day. To Mass.
[/quote]Those are some amesome heels. People who say "hooker" are looking at it all wrong. If they are worn with a modest dress and a nice blazer they could be quite classy! You have to have the confidence to match the look though. Those shoes make a bold fashion statement!

Okay, Red, while I love the shoes, I have a srs question:

Did you have to also invest in a ginormous supply of blister bandaids and /or

I don't get blisters, but my arches start to hurt. :unsure:

:o No fair! I could deal with my arches hurting... just take the shoes off.

I get blisters, like anywhere that my foot touches the edge of the shoe, basically. :hmmm: My feet are still peeling from the ONE time I wore those wedge heels (for a couple of hours) I posted a picture of...

Probably not. I say those specific words because those words carry a certain meaning for me. What I think the word "hot" means doesn't mean the same thing for someone else. For example, I know a girl that puts what I would call a "pretty" ribbon in her hair, but she calls it "hot".

But most of all, the most important thing is [i]how[/i] you wear your clothes, not [i]what [/i]you wear. I've often heard the saying that a nun could walk naked and still be modest. You seem like a reasonable person so there's no reason for me to assume you wearing those shoes has any immodest intent. I assumed you thought the same thing as my other friend, that they were what I would call "pretty" but thought that the word "hot" sounded cooler.

But heck, I could be completely wrong about all this, I'm still learning.

I was hoping so, but I didn't see any of the 3 smileys you just used and I remember how crazy everyone got over the stuff before, I didn't want to risk joking back with you if you were actually serious. I pretty much live out Murphy's law. If I had assumed you were joking but you were serious, I would've been a jerk. If I had assumed you were serious but you were joking, I come across as stuffy and sound like FP's younger brother. I went for the lesser of two evils.

Anyways, back to your regularly scheduled lame bored:

Maybe next time I should just post a pony :hehe:
