I don't necessarily consider myself an immodest person, when I'm getting dressed in the morning I don't choose my outfits thinking, "I really want everyone to notice how great my boobs are." It's more like, "Skinny pants with a baggy striped tank top, looks real cute!" (my current outfit, complete with cheetah print shoes) But, um, me showing my shoulders is kinda immodest.
Truth be told, I wouldn't mind leaving my home in my current outfit sans the obligatory Mormon girl cardigan, if I knew no one from church would see me. Because you know, they'd totally judge you. Heck when I, myself, see a member wearing immodest clothing on Facebook I always delightfully squeel, "Ooooooh, look at those shoulders/thighs/ or belly!"
It's kinda funny, because a month ago I was speaking with a friend of mine and she mentioned how one of the girls in our old YW (Young Women's) group looked immodest on her facebook. She made it seem like from the girl's exposed shoulders she had obviously renounced the church but when I half sarcastically made the comment, "Well I'm not always modest, am I a bad mormon?" My friend said it was different. It's ironic that I asked that, because shortly afterwards, I heard through the grapevine, my boyfriend's best friend called me, "kinda skanky," because I've taken my cardigan off around him a few times in his rec room that doesn't have AC.
Which leads me to question, is there a different between immodesty and skanky?
Well, at least I'm a one piece kind of gal. Even if it is partly attributed to me emulating the retro 50's look. Which reminds me, I need this swimsuit from ModCloth. Anyone have ninety bucks laying around?
