    Do you think modesty is important and that people should cover up and not dress sexy? Personally, I believe that the human body is natural, God created it so it isn't shameful or wicked at all. I don't at all relate to people who are funny about the human body and put emphasis on modesty... to me they seem a little too preoccupied with it, like they're looking way more than they have to! Sure, dressing modestly removes the temptation, but if you can resist the temptation to look at someone who is showing a bit of leg or whatever, isn't that even better??? Your thoughts...

    Modesty is a great part of my personality, I am very shy and frankly would never want to change that. What is refraining the unshy and unmodest person to do as s/he wish even though it might invovle utter stupidity?(to be just, shy people commit alot of stupidity themselves, just look at me ^^ )

    I am for sure influenced by my religion when I refrain from looking and speaking to women(acually I shiver like fallen leaves on a cold swedish fall when speaking to them) but I am also convinced that its not natural to show but rather to cover up. We all (almost all) have boarders we don't pass, the question is about where these boarders should be put.
    A small child would as soon as it reaches a certain age want to be alone when changing clothes, this -Lotus- is true natural modesty.
