As if this is a bad thing.
Why women dress skimpily in the cold
THE MANNER of dress chosen by the women of Dublin is, of course, common throughout the Western world. It only came as a surprise to me because Ireland was once the most Catholic and socially conservative of all Western countries. An even bigger surprise, however, was the loutish behavior of many women as they ran around in packs like loud hooligans, trying to attract as much attention as possible.Read the rest.
I saw a bride out on her bachelorette night walking on the city streets with her friends, an obscene male blow-up doll tied to her body as she readied herself for the spiritual commitment of marriage.
Across Europe there is now a movement to ban or limit Islamic women wearing full-face and full-body covering. This is done, ostensibly, to protect women from being treated as dangerous sexual seducers who must therefore be hidden away. Curiously, there is no similar movement to try and impart even a semblance of dignity to young Western women, to get them to value themselves as something other than a man's plaything.
IT GROWS worse by the day. I was disappointed at TLC, a quality network and my television home of the past two years, recently announcing that they had acquired the rights to broadcast the Miss America beauty pageant. Beauty competitions, one would have thought, should have died the ignominious death of so many other sexist institutions which portray a woman's highest calling as serving as male entertainment.
Is it really possible that 60 years after feminism rightly said women have a brain and not just a bust, we still have international competitions wherein judges rate a woman for her ability to fill a bathing suit and the length of her legs?
