Don’t forget high heels.

In the past, it was the men who wore high heels to make them look taller.
 
I choose my outfits with the purpose of being appropriate to the occasion and being modest.

I go to mass in my Sunday best, go to work in work appropriate clothing, keeping in mind safety precautions like not wearing jewelry or bits of clothing that could get caught in rotating machinery.

Last in my mind is dressing in order to attract a man. No, scratch that. It’s not last. It’s not even there.

I am hardly unique in this case.

Naw…let the guys wear the ties, especially the beautiful silk ones with their professional suits…as for me, well a beautiful scarf will complete any attire. Women should dress in a feminine way and be presentable…oh, it’s great to be a woman and wear all those nice dresses, scarves, jewelry, and those heels. Women be proud of who you are…and look the part! 👠
 
And pants/slacks/ jeans. Those are a definite no-no. Those are not feminine. Skirts or dresses only, certainly covering the knees, but preferably covering the ankles. Same goes for swimwear, cover it up from top to bottom. Oh, are we’re going back to the 1890’s again?
 
I don’t understand what makes a tie or a necktie unfeminine. Here in the UK, a tie is often part of school uniform for both boys and girls. It’s certainly not seen as masculine to wear one.
 
But once upon a time high heels, lace, and puffs were the height of noble masculinity. It’s all arbitrary. Fashions change as culture changes.
 
And WIGS! Wigs, everywhere! I mean the centuries- long fashion of men wearing wings.

Except when one wants to, God forbid, walk or.run or move one’s body ,in which.case.most high heels.are a nuisance. Or not get strangled by one’s scarf while driving like Isadora Duncan.

But no women should ever want to indulge in such “unfeminine” pursuits, of course. Or even just be comfortable and avoid the risk of the insidious practice of “upskirting”

I think that show is hilarious despite its blatant crudeness, I love Sr. 🤔 can’t remember her name. She has the best lines.

Look the part as you see it? No way have I or will I ever wear high heels like you have in your post. I don’t own a silk scarf. I can be proud of how I look without fitting your stereotypical view of what is considered feminine.
 
I would say that most women I see do not know how to walk in them and just end up looking weird.
 
Using my own standard: I see nothing wrong with dressing any way, as long as all persons are modest. Women look good in neckties anyway.
 
I don’t see a problem. Fashion sense comes and goes. If my sister wants to dress as the Brawny guy on a daily basis, I really don’t care, and I’m not sure that God does, either.
 

More of this please.

When Avril came on the scene wearing a wifebeater and a tie, I immediately identified her as someone who had attended Catholic school.

Tis_Bearself, I have but one thing to say: flagging my post and getting a politically correct moderator to remove them just because you’re female and I’m male, and your position is that males should defer to males in all matters involving the two sexes, while staff are afraid to challenge that position, does not make you right.

You have no idea who flagged your posts. This is extremely uncharitable.

Like I said — if.

Some people are already in a marriage or getting there, or happily single. Others — and there is a growing number — are singles who would like to change their condition. Whichever sex us singles happen to be, we end up having to take the opposite sex’s attraction into account. Or rather we don’t really have to, but it’s often having to choose between our own comfort and attraction. Personally, I tend to choose somewhere midway through. I don’t disregard the other sex’s attraction, but I don’t normally make everything revolve around it either, though if I choose to ignore it, I also choose the consequences (basically the matter of not getting to have the cake and eat it too, or at least not always and not fully).
 
The Church encourages the virtue of modesty when it comes to choosing what to wear.

The Church does not make a stance on what is fashionable and what someone should not wear because it isn’t “feminine or masculine enough”.

It’s the same thing as asking if men shouldn’t be allowed to wear pink or if it’s a sin to do so. I’ll gladly wear my salmon shorts and my pink Hawaiian shirt

Definitely fashionable. When I was younger, if my wife had dressed for work in a similar outfit to the woman wearing the hat, she and I might’ve been late to work a few times.
