If more relevant means showing chest and cleavage, then let' stay irrelevant, please!

People,
as much as we do not wish to admit it, modesty is to some degree, anyways, cultural.

Those who have not grown up with our perceptions of modesty would not see her attire as offensive or immodest.

Is it?

Perception, people.

For those of those who never saw a girl's knees until we married her. she is immodest.
For those of a differing perception, she looks fine. (Fine as in OK, not FINE as in HOT.)

Why now? They had to know it would create a stir in this present climate.
Why now?

Because the organization is becoming more tolerant and relevant to the culture they live in?

Because she is now in the prime age of those at the Youth Congress?

TG and his gang of merry men? Whatever the motive... it was a great idea, and it does not mean the planners endorsed every dress the girl has ever worn.

This is still a silly thread - even if I am posting on it.
