Books to Read, Modesty

Boundaries
Girls Gone Mild
"I Kissed Dating Goodbye"
"What Color Is Your Parachute?"

Why is modesty such an issue for certain people? Seriously...Why is it that there is still a double standard for guys?

Somehow I found this book browsing on Amazon; click the photo of the book and read the table of contents. I found it pretty funny!

I found this newspaper article about 2 college students who are choosing not to have sex until they get married, plus the facebook group dedicated to the article.

Perusing facebook groups, I found a discussion within the "Girls Gone Mild" group revolving around this link:

I was surprised reading the article, as the others in the discussion were. What do you think?

Any thoughts?

I just found this great new clothing site! I think it may take 2nd-place in my "favorite online-clothing store" list! 2nd of course, behind Funky Frum. :p

Called Be Precious (http://www.bepreciousclothing.com/), based in L.A., was featured in The Jewish Week.

The store has cute things and good prices! Next time I have some extra money, I will definitely be picking some skirts up! :-)
