If We Treated Men That Way

Modest is hottest...until it goes too far.

If We Treated Men That Way

Guys, there's something I need to talk to you about. It's summertime and while it's super hot outside, I think it's important that you practice modesty this summer. While you may want to be comfortable, it's important that you're careful not to stir up lustful temptations within your sisters in Christ. Here are some ways in which God's men should partake in modesty.

1. Don't go shirtless.

2. Don't take your dog (puppies especially) out in public.

3. Stay away from children.

4. Don't wear Chubbies.

5. No male rompers!

6. Don't wear a uniform of any kind.

7. No suits either.

8. Basically, as far as attire goes you're allowed one of two things: Appropriately long pants with a t-shirt OR appropriately long pants with a Hawaiian shirt. That's usually decently safe.

9. Don't get tattoos.

10. Don't come off as even a little bit flirty because if you flirt then you're basically asking for sex. (Recall that episode of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody where Agnes gets a bit too obsessed with Cody. Hey, he led her on.)

11. Don't drink because if you get drunk and someone takes advantage then it's automatically your fault for being too drunk to say no.

And if you can't tell by now, this is just a list to prove a point. If men had to live by the standards that women are told to live by every day then they would be in so much trouble. It isn't anyone else's responsibility to keep you in check. Self control is crucial and must be exercised daily. Now, with that being said, I think I'm going to go lay out by the pool in my new bikini.
