I look at myself as pretty conservative when it comes to my dress - however i read a few comments and thought "hey I'll throw in my opinion " :) I mean, I only wear burmuda shorts in the summer and leave strappy tank tops for layering under "sleave" shirts, but I think its totally ok to wear pants. Like one girl said, its about the heart, wearing a dress with the wrong attitude is just as bad as the low-cut top. However, if you feel like God's calling you to wear dresses - I would NEVER discourage that at all!!! In fact, i do respect you for that! I know its totally hard for me some days cuz I wanna save my first kiss till marriage and people are like "Are you KIDDING me???" - and of course I'm not, I feel like thats what GOD requires of me. So I don't think dresses define modesty, but if you like them - go ahead and wear them!!!! And i really didn’t think the wedding dress was inapropreitte at all.

The way you define a woman is a beautiful picture of the proverbs 31 woman. I have been struggleing to know what a true christian woman is becuase many of the girls my age are confused about it. they think being a woman is being sexy but that isn't true. I hope many other girls my age get on this site and see this. it is what all young women should strive for and like many saints before us we can accomplish it with god's help thanks again Sarah Hey Thank you som much for posting this. this is the first time i got on your site.

Like, WOW, can I blow it! That’s because I am a filthy sinner who should get what I deserve: death." And at the same time you're feeling sad for people like me, I'm feeling sad for you. Also, to an above comment (probably left in 2006 or something, haha, I'm so late to the game) that states women and men display differences in behavior from an early age... that may be true, but observe the different ways in which adults communicate with babies. I just don't understand how people can accept that these are inherent differences between the genders in personality/temperament and not at all socially constructed; that women are meant to be gentle, nurturing, etc. If that were true, wouldn't all cultures have developed along those lines, and how do you view cultures that have a different take on what it is to be men and women? I know they're nonchristian and so all of this doesn't apply, but... I'm just curious! “Second, I am so sad for the people such as “not brainwashed” and “proud to be a feminist.” I have found that when I try to make my own path or “own” myself, I mess up BIG TIME.
