“oomis –

Is that the best you can do? “Look away?” What kind of ‘cop out’ answer is that?

Of course we look away, but why are you dressing/acting that way in the first place? “

Yatzmich, your somewhat chutzpadig reply, left me non-plussed for a moment. Clearly you did not read the rest of my post. I was not copping, out, but pointing out the obvious. When you see a potential situation (a car door opening and a woman getting out)that you can reasonably predict will cause you to see something untzniusdig, turn away from it. Even if the person is dressing improperly, at least you will not see anything embarrassing.

But then, you question me as to why I am dressing/acting that way? What gives you the idea that I do so? I absolutely do NOT dress in such a manner. And given your feelings on the subject, that was a not-so-nice conjecture on your part, and especially so, as we are about to go into The Nine Days. I don’t think that was your intention, but it nonetheless came off that way to me.
