And I think it is inappropriate to wear high heels on journeys, to work and even to church but it is not my business that women decide to damage their spines to look s*exy.

I agree but it is not indecent which the OP is focusing on

Some things we do fashionwise are inappropriate but no way offensive to morals.

Well, some women walk in high heels like they are ovulating, if you know what I mean so many people would consider high heels quite indecent. And you know exactly that high heels make your a*zz swing some more so why wear them?

Apart from this, the OP was not only focusing on decency but also on appropriateness and it is not inappropriate at all to wear sporty clothes on a journey or on the way to the gym.

I consider it more inappropriate to come to church in high heels that remind me of the red light district. Sorry but at least I do not tell these women what to wear. It is their choice.

Like someone once posted,
women are comfortable
wearing bikinis,sports wears and anything exposing their private ministry
but if you mistakenly
come-in on them wearing
pant and bra,
they would scream,cry and
run for cover.

It's epic,I cannot say more.

@topic.

Fully exposed tight and sheer pants are inappropriate to wear out of your house, period. Whether to the gym or otherwise. That's just plain hoochie. It's a fashion faux pas as far as I know. Yes, even in the west.

And who gives you, me or someone else the right to tell adults what they should wear?

And who gives them the right to disturb our sensibilities with their unclothedness? Why should the indecent dresser be allowed freedom of dressing while I am denied freedom of expressing my discomfort? Is one higher than the other?

To be a part of society one has to exhibit certain tolerable behaviour. Freedom is an illusion. Just because you are free to do as you like doesn't mean you are free to do as you like, savvy?

If there is no standard code of dressing, if there is no line drawn between decency and indecency, then there should be nothing wrong with a man wearing a skirt and bra to go for an interview. Its his right to do so, but we all know he won't get the job. I think we all know what indecent dressing is, but we are attacking the OP because he touched on female indecency which is a pretty sensitive topic.

personally I dont care. Expose your nippIes, breasSts and vagInas to the world if you like. Like pickabeau1 said on the first page, more eyecandy for the guys.

More objectivisation
More sexualization of our women


Who cares about what's in women's heads when they themselves want to dress indecently terming it a reversion to long lost African customs.

More eye candy

You must have thought I was going to deny ever sending you a mail...heck, that's just disappointing.

Now what's even more disappointing and shameful is the idea that you'd want to make it seem like I've been sending mails in the dozens to you...Lmao, like seriously Carefree?

As far as my business with you on NL goes, ONLY 3 empty mails have been sent from my person to you, all of which were spaced many weeks apart...you replied none, and I even commented on one of these instances to you on a thread for all to see - I got nothing to hide.

As for alluding to your posts, darling I did it once, and not on almost every thread.
I really do not want to believe you're losing it.

So now, do you know that ELLYsian sounds a lot like you or not? Just a question...

Carefreewannabe & crackhaus please stop

There is nothing wrong in sending PMs and whatever you both discussed when you were friendly should not be made public

You both will feel bad if you get to read these posts in future angry sad

I have not discussed anything with him in private and he asked me to reply to his PMs in public and I told him that I would not in public.

And Bukatyne, I think you are a really nice person but I would like to ask you not to get involved in my arguments.

I must be crazy, I'm yet to feel this disgrace you ladies are stuffing everywhere in my mentions. cheesy

That some lying attention-starved girl brought up gist about some alleged 'numerous' mails I didn't send, and that I promptly responded to disprove the 'numerous' part of it - is this what I'm supposed to be feeling disgraced on?

Was I to accept the grossly exaggerated lie then?

I'm sorry ladies, but I don't get it.

I feel wat is what is wrong is wrong,i am not a saint but cant place d reason why a woman will defend nudity wit a lot of zeal,sightin men's mode of urinating,the climate and some other silly excuses.
@b i couldnt agree wit u more,some ideologies jst slowly creep into our mental faculty and makes d abnormal jst seem perfect.(dats one of d reason why a not so good musician wil neva listen to wat u say if it doesnt trail along d line of 'dat was a fantastic track',any opposite opinion is from d association of haters.)

women are beautiful,
we are all at liberty,
nigeria is a corrupt.
dis are all fact.but not reasons to dress immorally.enough said.




Royver:
Interesting thread. I think i get the Op's line of reasoning:
1. The Op saw an indecently dressed lady.
2. The Op soliloquized that if not for the rampant western ideology of:
a. "Mind your own business"
b. People who correct you are 'haters'
c. freedom of dressing, no matter how outlandish it may be
d. it is the viewer/complainer and not the indecent dresser that should be cautioned when a person appears indecently dressed(evidenced by what happened on the first few pages of this thread)
If not for the above, the lady wouldn't have had the guts to wear what she did in the first place.
3. The OP decided to air his views publicly instead.
4. What the Op was concerned about came to reality.
What is amazing me is the amount of blatant and blind support people online have for the west. I mean, why all the unnecessary anger? was the op wrong in pointing out indecent dressing? Was the op wrong in saying the West is morally more bankrupt than we are? I dont think he was.
Even westerners complain about the level of moral decadence in their society, yet some Nigerians will support them to high heavens as if they will get free visa for doing so.
It is quite different from corruption - yes it is possible Nigerians are more corrupt than the west. Yes we have our own problems of ritual killings and poor economy, religious upheavals, etc. But that doesn't mean that if we see something bad we should condone it. Correcting our ills must start from somewhere.
What is bad is bad and we should not be ashamed to speak up when we see it for fear of being labelled "18th century."
My 2cents.
