Sometimes, the best for the soul is no marriage, specially today.
Most of the time, there is barely a single young woman wearing a decent dress. At least it is my experience here in France.
The SSPX needs to give a sermon like this:Fr. Michael Rodriguez gave a powerful sermon, "Modesty, Salvation and Eternity", on the virtue of purity, practicing modesty, and the connection with the message of Our Lady of Fatima.
Where is Fr. Michael Rodriguez now? Does anyone know? I haven't yet looked at the above sermon nor heard anything else about him for a couple of years now.
Can't say as I have ever noticed a reluctance to speak about modesty, despite our local priests being transferred every couple years.Not saying it couldn't be an issue elsewhere, but we have had 3 priests since mid-2012, and they have all mentioned proper attire at Mass
When they do speak about it, their words have no strength. They don't preach so as to urge people to mend their ways. Padre Pio scourged immodest women with his white rope, and he refused the sacraments to them. Our priests have not the courage to do so, they claim that it would cause departures. One day, Abbot Régis de Caqueray wrote an article about modesty, but the text was weak and feminist. That's an effeminate mentality.

You can't expect readers to understand your use of an entire clause as a compound adjective (must you even try?) when you fail to insert the hyphens (e.g., as in green above) that grammatically change that clause into a compound adjective that's correctly parsable. Much better yet, how about "Latina women are the group most affected by this mind-set of dressing provocatively to attract men"?Ugh! Young Latina women, of whom there is no shortage in Central Florida, seem to consider obesity a characteristic to be flaunted instead of disguised, unlike women of nonLatina cultures in the U.S.A. I'm fascinated that your, um, model displays what might be called platform buttocks: a characteristic that I've been told is typically negroid. Altho' from the colonization history of the New World, we should not be surprised that such genes would manifest in various Latinas. Pregnancy and recovery from the weight-gain once routinely recommended by physicians during pregnancies seems not to explain the majority of the obese young Latinas. Perhaps if the young Latinas I am routinely sighting from day-to-day were of their "educated" class, e.g., college coeds or degree-bearing professionals, their attitudes and my overall impressions might be different?We in Central Florida are enduring the arrival of on the order of 100,000 Puerto Ricans over the past 6 months (numbers waved around range loosely from 1/2 to 3 times that round number), blamed on the devastation caused by Hurricane Maria, but to keep this on topic, I expect their clothing styles to be more of the same. Perhaps you're getting some of our overflow?Maybe your photo would be worthwhile in a CathInfo topic from 2 months ago in a different subforum:• <https://www.cathinfo.com/health-and-nutrition/40-percent-of-u-s-adults-are-obese/>?From my perspective here, the "40%" is rolling-on-the-floor-laughably low as an estimate.So with all that "bouncing" from man to man, when do those Latinas find time to settle into a validCatholic marriage during which they produce "their daughters"? Shouldn't spinsterhood act as a genealogical dead-end for Latinas who teach "the same error" [†] that left them as spinsters? -------Note †: You are wearing blinders that prevent you from considering another habit that I've been told Latina mothers teach to daughters; it could be a severe error in treatment of any man who has self-respect, thus killing a romantic relationship that might otherwise lead to a Catholic marriage. But it doesn't fit your agenda, and I concede that it would be off-topic.
