SSPX's standard of modesty?

    • Has anyone here ever asked his priest exactly what constitutes immodest dress?

    I asked a SSPX prior before, and he couldn't give me any standard of what constitutes modest vs. immodest dress! This seems to be a pandemic within the neo-SSPX.

    • From one neo-SSPX chapel's bulletin:
    Quote
    Dress code requires modest, decent and proper attire in church, since the Presence of God is here. Traditionally, Catholics will wear their Sunday Best. Ladies and girls please wear a head-covering and a dress that goes well below the knees when sitting. Men and boys please do not wear sports clothes or athletic shoes at Sunday Mass.
    This is mediocre, nothing about hemline or sleeve-length. "Well below the knees" is subjective.

    • I am curious as well. The standard outside of Sunday Mass appears to have changed over the years. We used to hear sermons about modest dress. Now, it seems as Catholic parents, we are not just going against the cultural grain when telling our girls to wear skirts, but also against the grain of most other parishioners at our Society chapel. It is more than a little discouraging.

    • Traditional Catholic girls should be leaders Christ  instead of followers of the nєω ωσrℓ∂ σr∂єr fashion.   Dressing modestly doesn’t mean frumpy.  Also, in the past woman wore the same dress every Sunday.  

    The real world is creepy.   You go to stores and most clothing is very immodest and trashy.  Many people walking around with purple, pink, blues colored hair, tattoos.  Many look like they need a bath. Then many women are huge wearing yoga pants or pajamas. Then you go in line to check out here they are with a full shopping cart, they whip out a welfare credit card.  

    Schools should mandate a dress code and teach them how to bathe and have manners.  

    The world is satanic. They do what they want.  There is no order or reason. Bad is good and good is bad. 

    Lukewarm Christians allowed all this to happen.

    • If the SSPX is going to have a foundation-wide modesty standard, why not use that of Pius XI?  A few updates may be needed such as for men’s and boy’s attire, ie. no earrings, no boxers showing…For all, no bizarre piercings, cover tattoos, include children and even infants in the standards. ie. I’ve seen women change their baby’s diaper during Mass, on the pew!

    THIS ACCURATELY SUMS UP WHY I DO NOT SHOP AT WALMART!  If I need something from there, I order it online.

    Seriously? You don't know what constitutes modest vs. immodest dress?

    • Presumably they should be the only official standards ever to come from the Holy Father ... ?

    This is what they used to use, and preach, back in the 1990s & earlier.

    I do, but many (mostly newcomers and even a few long-time SSPXers) don't. The priests' duty is to instruct them.
