I find that picture highly disturbing.

Also, I worry that a woman who dresses like that might be the type to complain "it's cold" even when it's 80 degrees inside and the thermostat has melted to the wall. Melted to the wall I say.

It smothers me just looking at it.

If you really want to get the creeps, imagine if that's polyester instead of wool!

But it is good for a tailgate party!

You could burn it to roast s'mores.


EDIT to add: that grey one looks suspiciously like a onesie that would go on a small child. I'm not sure that dude should be rocking that look. The baby look is really not in style...

Why would they call it 'Forever Lazy'? Do people buy such stuff? Either they have too much money on their hands or they are stupid.

I don't think she's cold. I think she's just... creative. :D

I suppose I just wanted rant a bit. And what's your deal? Your suppose to get angry at sin. Your suppose to gt angry when someone lies, steals, rapes, murderers. Anger is the correct response towards sin. You clearly don't understand that anger can be justified. You can get angry for the right reasons.

Your seeing more than you think. I'm just angry at immodesty and my selection of girls, even in the church, dress trashy.
Dude. You're skurry....wouldn't want to meet you in a back alley. Did you for reals just lump a girl wearing leggings into the same category as rapists and murderers? Since modesty is somewhat subjective based on cultural norms (see "dat ankle" picture somewhere about the first few pages....yes, showing your ankle used to be considered "trashy" and immodest...but people wouldn't dream of suggesting that these days), as opposed to something that can be measured by objective rules/limitations of specific dress according to the bible (ie: a woman shall wear a skirt or shorts no shorter than a minimum of 3 inches above the knee, thus sayeth the Lord), you can't seriously equate breaking what you consider a rule of modesty with a breach of one of the 10 commandments, dude.

Other dude was right...the amount of hostility you have towards not the sin of immodesty, but seemingly towards the women committing this sin, is quite concerning. That's pretty aggressive language when you should simply be able to say "hmm. that's immodest dress...she probably shouldn't be dressed that way. I'm not going to look anymore, she's not my type I suppose" and walk away....I mean, I've seen me enough episodes of criminal minds to know when people use such angry language in reference to women, they often end up the subject of investigations that involve digging up that new concrete slab in their basement to look for the ladies missing in a string of unsolved abductions. :p

Three days? If a thread is quiet for three days it is dead? Man, the shelf life in this forum is a lot shorter than in some forums.

Don't really think dressing skimpy is much of a sin. The sin was fantasizing about others. The whole reason for dressing modest is to not tempt others to fantasize or think immorally. If you're having that much of a struggle keeping you're mind in check that you have to rage on hot babes in bikini's... I think ya need to stop pointing the finger at everyone and work better at keeping your thoughts in check when you see a hot body. It's perfectly within you're power to control your mind. If you haven't got any large struggle with lust, then I don't really get why you'd make much of a fuss of it.

I think most dudes play this blame game like they are incapable of thinking morally around a hot girl. "Dang that girl for being so irresistible... if only she'd put on more clothes then I could control my manly sexual urges. The sinner!!"

I usually give a shorter shelf life to something that deserves to die. lol

I've always wondered, we were originally created naked. God certainly didn't make a mistake there. Is nakedness or showing skin in and of itself really the true problem?, or is it our own perverted perceptions/ideas about it that are what actually makes it "bad". I'm not persuaded completely on either argument because both have valid points, it's just an interesting question.

I just hate how theres a such thing as a bikini... and shorts for women in general are too short. If its 3 inches above the knee... thats far enough. Leggings are trashy. I don't like girls who wear tight clothes. It shows them to be cheap and trashy.

I don't want to marry a trashy woman. I just get so angry that when I meet a girl I sort of like... I later find out she wears things like this. I HATE IT.

What happened to two-piece swimsuits. (sigh) You know I think I'll marry foreign women... I think its an American thing...maybe a Californian thing? Idk. It happens within the church too.

I know I'm ranting but, doesn't one feel like this sometimes?
Wow! i admire ur standards

Modesty has a lot to do with attitude in my opinion. A nun can act like a floozy if she so chooses.... just cause she's covered doesn't mean she's holy.
