Interesting thread to say the least.
There is one girl at my chapel that wears 4-5 inch designer high heels and a knee length skirt, tight-fitting, and tight fitting tops and she always sits in the front. It can be VERY distracting and hard to concentrate on mass.
I think heels above 2inches should not be allowed at mass unless they have a full length skirt, since most of those shoes basically look like hooker shoes and are very distracting for men.
It's like she fell out of a Vogue magazine.
I should probably mention something to Father.
Well, no, you should MOST DEFINITELY mention something to Father.
This goes right to the point. Women need to understand that just because
someone doesn't approach them and inform them about their dressing habits,
and how
they are a walking occasion of sin when they "don't put some
clothes on" before they come to Mass, doesn't mean that people are not
thinking it.
They really ought to know this, but they 'play dumb' or whatever. When they
know what they are doing is wrong and they do it anyway, yes, that is most
decidedly a mortal sin.
Men cannot reasonably say anything to a woman about their immodest dress,
because to do so would be improper, and there is no way to say it without
breaking your own principle of "modesty in word and action."
It is up to the priest to say something, and it is usually in the Confessional, or
else from the pulpit in Sunday sermons. But for a priest to approach a woman
and to tell her she is dressed immodestly, is not an easy task.
The job of Porter, which is the lowest, or most basic level of minor orders, is
one that includes this charge, of telling someone they are not dressed
properly. All SSPX chapels I have seen have some kind of sign posted on the
front door and side entrances that announce this. At St. Peter's Basilica in
Rome, there is such a sign on the main entrance, and women who violate the
rules are asked to leave, and are welcome to return when properly dressed.
If a man can't handle being Porter, he should never have made it up to cleric.
And obviously, you have to have been a cleric before you can be a priest.
In those cases, it is the assignment of the porter to approach the women, and
he gets to know how best to pull that off successfully. But the average Joe in
the pews should not have to do that task.
