I have to say I went the route of saying something one time. I said to a young lady who was immodestly dressed "you want men to see you for what is on the inside rather than what is on the outside". In retrospect, reflecting on it, I put myself in great danger and made the temptation worse. I think the phillip neri/monte python method is best. "Run AWAY! RUN AWAY", though it may be a difficult alternative in this case. The prayers are a viable second alternative. Especially in this case I would not recommend a conversation with her. I've sent a few smoke signals up.

I asked God to give me the grace to see His daughters as their mothers see them, and to see His mothers as their daughters see them. Until then, it will just be "run away!!!!"

lol that's awesome TCW way to be original in avoiding temptation.

I am glad you spoke to her. She may think that is what guys like, now she knows better. By talking to her you gave her something to think about. Hopefully she will change the way she dresses.

My own experience I worked in a convenience store. A young man was standing across from the register looking at some candy, his pants fell down (you know how they wear them) he wasn't wearing any underwear.

oohhhh you could try the Aquinas route and haul out the ol' burning log!

In all seriousness, if you can approach a young lady who is immodestly dressed without sinning yourself, do so. You have a way with beautiful words, tcw, and may be able to get her to see that dressing that way isn't going to get her the type of guy she wants. Believe it or not, she may not even be aware how she appears to members of the opposite sex. It may have been the way she was brought up. I've seen little toddlers wearing "teenage" clothing...so wrong.

I think it's better for me to "run away." :

[daugher-of-Mary]

ah I understand.

I guess it is up to us girls to keep each other up to the right standard of dress!

There's a modestly dressed woman in the lab right now and she looks beautiful and mysterious.

[theculturewarrior]

Thank your mom for me. She's saving souls one person at a time. :

I was just kidding.
