  • If you are looking at girl, but you think she wears too much makeup, casually say what you like, if she adjusts, then maybe see if she is worth dating (courting, I don't know what people want to call it.)  If she doesn't, move on to someone else.

    Yeah, just because someone has it on ... who knows what her motivation was?  Perhaps she just thought she needed to put it on so as not to be ignored, but in reality hated having to wear it.  That's the kind of thing to be careful about judging.  You might end up ruling out someone who would have made a terrific wife, due to some snap mistaken judgment.

  • Absolutely no traditional Catholic (including priests) I’ve ever met have an issue with dancing, literature, art, alcohol… obviously sins can be committed involving all these things  eg alcohol in excess but in themselves they’re not sinful. I do agree with you about masks… we avoided them during the Covid shenanigans. Unnecessary dirty rags and won’t stop the spread of any viruses.
    It should be obvious that ballet is immodest from the clothes they wear to the movements they make. Any man can ask themselves if they think it's okay if their wife did that and allowed other men to watch. Same with ballroom dancing, the close proximity and touching is not okay. Really think about whether or not you would like your husband being close around other woman and holding them (as the dance requires) or if you doing so would make your own husband jealous.
