Modesty should avoid excessively burdening people. It seeks a middle ground wherein the one who dresses and the other who sees share responsibility. The one wearing the attire should not be burdened with difficult requirements, nor should the viewer be burdened by facing undue temptation. Mutual charity and concern are the goals.

The good Msgr is far from an *idiot*.

He raises a valid point about the double standards applied to men and women.

Now, while you may well enjoy watching the beach volleyball, one has to wonder why you do? Is it because of the sport itself? Or because of watching the mostly nude women?

Which validates his point.

Jesus told us that men who look lustfully at a woman have already committed adultery with her in their hearts.

Dressing in a way so as to cause men more difficultly in the sexual temptation department is irresponsible on the part of the woman.

Women can dress classy and attractively without looking like sluts.
