Father is spot on! Im a lady and i feel more tired, serious when i wear pants, but when i wear skirts and dresses, i feel girly, sweet and more likely to be friendly. Clothing is strange
Clothes do affect our way of thinking, this is true! I've noticed that if you dress modestly you think humbly but if you dress with expensive and immodest clothes, you feel proud and think highly of yourself (which displeases God).
*The idea of "modesty" is an absolute joke. God created us to be fully naked with NO SHAME and it was only when we started seeing the world through our eyes rather than through God's eyes that we started viewing our bodies as disgraceful. 99% of clothing has nothing to do with trying to be sexy, it's just the person wearing what makes them comfortable. Clothing doesn't influence evil actions, immoral character does.*
@@starhunter9085 True, God did create us to be naked and naked we probably would have remained if Adam and Eve didn't eat the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge Good and Evil.
Go to confession frequently, consecrate yourself to the Immaculate Heart of Mary the 33 days consecration and don't give up, pray especially the Rosary, You are not the only one fighting this battle, pray for others as well.
Not only a lack of modesty in the United States but profane and gross choice of dress is now the “new normal”. Ave Maria…we need your divine intervention ✝️🙏
It's kinda hard when you see a woman who dresses improperly at Mass, no less, sitting in front of you! But, at Mass, no less! And, in the FRONT PEW!! It's embarassing!
Agree! Especially the "athleisure wear" fad that's become normal to wear everywhere. The tight spandex with shorter shirts that don't cover a persons backside and everything else has got to go. It's very unbecoming not to mention just plain gross.
*There are two types of modesty: Spiritual and physical* *The Spiritual aspect is true 1000% and is made perfectly clear all throughout the Bible. It shows in the way we act and treat one another. It's what we carry in our hearts and minds and spirits. This is what God cares about and what we should be striving towards.* *Physical modesty is a lie. It's nothing but a man made ideology designed to manipulate and control one another due to our lust for power. It's based on ignorance and our lack of understanding of what our bodies truly represent. This has no basis in the Bible or science.*
This is all very timely, I have recently been trying to dress more modestly and slowly building a wardrobe that is Marian. i.e more long skirts and less skinny jeans
Same. Especially with the Blessed Sacrament on the altar in my room, it’s a must for me. I only wear capris when I’m walking the trails, but am thinking of getting a long skirt for that too
In Islam, both men and women are required to dress modestly. However, Muslim women have special clothes which they sometimes choose to wear in order to protect their modesty. Many Muslim women wear a hijab or veil to protect their modesty. Not all Muslim women choose to do this. In the UK this is matter of choice. Some Muslim women wear a niqab or a burkha. Not all Muslim women choose to do this. In the UK this is a matter of choice. Men have no requirement to dress in this way, but men are required to be modest in the way they dress.
Yes . About time for us women to look like ladies again . I loved the dress era with hats and gloves and hand bags and so on ...the days when men were gentlemen and wore hats and lifted their hats when they passed ladies . Really . There was such an era . We wore mantilla to church . We followed Our Lady .....i wear it too..

I questioned this for years, but as expected, Father Ripperger removed all doubt. I always much preferred wearing pants, as they gave me the sense that I could conquer the world. Year after year I asked internally and also priests about the appropriateness of wearing pants (even FSSP priests). All said pants are fine. I still couldn't help but wonder if Our Lady was referring to pants, among other fashions, when she told the visionaries that fashions would be introduced that would greatly offend Her Son. Still wearing pants, I began researching why and when women began wearing them. I learned it began as a deliberate rebellious act against social norms of the day. This summer, still wearing pants, I was determined to get an affirmative answer, HOPING the answer would be "pants are fine." I started a novena to St. Therese. I asked the Saint, "Please send me flowers if there is no way to wear pants that won't offend your Son." 45 minutes later, my daughter showed up with a bouquet of roses that had a most beautiful scent (I'm told it's rare to find roses nowadays that have that scent). When I told my daughter what had just happened she herself was stunned and excited...until I told her what the question and answer were!! :) I now wear a nursing scrub skirt at the hospital (and boy I stand out), but much to my surprise all responses have been positive. I offer it up to Our Lady, especially on the days I want to throw a pair of pants on.

No one tells you that skirts are actually more comfortable and practical than jeans in a lot of circumstances. Its much harder to get jeans that fit at the waist and the hip than it is to get a skirt that fits at the waist and is free at the hips. Shoe selection can be just as comfortable and practical as well. The exceptions, in my experience, are skirts that are short/tight enough to make it difficult to sit down or in the dead of winter without appropriate layers. Dresses are even easier - you dont even have to match an outfit.
YES. And as a woman, weight can fluctuate throughout the monthly cycle and skirts/dresses are so much more forgiving. It's also been easier on me postpartum because I don't have the pressure anymore to fit into my pre-baby skinny jeans.
As a convert that psychological shift is very true! The moment I started wearing modest skirts and dresses vs the usual jeans/leggings, I felt a certain relief… almost as if a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. My husband notices a calmness to me, and that same week said I had become softer in my speech. God is good!
I quit wearing pants completely three years ago. I threw them all out, and I now wear long skirts. It's a very small penance for the sake of my adult daughters.
@@angelalemos9811 yes they can fullfil the law..but not the spirit. Very tight (not well fitted) skirts are as immodest as tight 👖. Look at it. What did you notice first? Even pants that are too tight are not modest on men!
@@angelalemos9811 The Orthodox Jewish thinking is because they define the separation of the legs, any pants are immodest. It's probably the same here. You don't have to show skin to be immodest.
@@rebn8346 Oh, yeah! I know a sweet younger woman who is probably late 30's and attractive but on New Year's Eve she came to church with a knee length, tight skirt and stiletto ankle boots. The skirt had an obvious zipper all the way up the back. Oy Vey!!! I wanted to say something but didn't know what. She hasn't had a lot of catechesis, coming from Ukraine and we're in Israel. This is the acceptable dress here even at work. I know she doesn't have a lot of money, but the poor priest and deacon who are both young men!!
@@Meira750 it would be immodest to hike up a mountain in a skirt without pants on. It has to do with both law and spirit. I really didn't need a visual of your friend, I hope your prayed for her and brought it modestly to her attention that it didn't bring honor to God nor defend His dignity, nor hers. Women used to wear shorts and pantaloons under the dresses for centuries. Look as traditional Asian clothes for peasants, distinctly male and female, yet very similar with pants and a shirt dress of varying length Modest and practical.
I would get a lot of offended looks in my novus ordo parish whenever I wear a long sleeved polo shirt while wearing black leather shoes. It's funny how the very same people who mock me are also the ones who dress casually, don't kneel during consecration, cross their legs in the choir area. I just pray for them instead of getting angry. I am planning to attend a traditional latin mass for the for the first time. Please pray for me folks and the people in our parish especially our parish priests. Thank you.
It must be where you live. In my parish, a polo shirt at Mass would be "dressed up" it's not uncommon to see torn t-shirts with "Raiders" printed on it.
Going to mass is visiting the Royal Court. Our Lord deserves only the best, so we should show Him that love and respect by dressing nicely for church. Make an effort for Jesus please! ❤❤❤

*Nowhere in the Bible does it say that our bodies cause others to sin, that's a misinterpretation. The Bible is clear that our bodies are made in God's image and, because of that, we're the crown jewel of His creation. That's why there was no shame in nudity but we've lost sight of that but that doesn't mean that truth changes. Hebrews 13:8 tells us that Jesus is the same yesterday and today and tomorrow so if He thought our bodies were shameless yesterday, He still believes this today. Yes we have to cover certain areas of our bodies when we're in public because we'll get arrested for indecent exposure if we don't but clothing isn't God's creation nor was it ever intended by Him so it's not a priority of His. 1 Samuel 16:7 says WE LOOK AT PHYSICAL APPEARANCE WHILE GOD LOOKS AT THE HEART ❤ and that couldn't be any more true. David, Esther, Isaiah and Adam and Eve (before the fall) were all elevated when they embraced their natural beauty (bodies) so our bodies are not shameful "stumbling blocks", they're glorious elevation tools.*
Those of us in nursing have to wear scrubs for the most part. I can't imagine the Church having a problem with that. Most doctors would not be thrilled to see me in an old nurses dress - well some might, but not for the right reasons necessarily. But I do notice that men open doors for me, pull out my chair, even buy my lunch at times for me when I'm dressed in a skirt and a top. Can't tell you how many times I've been asked if I'm European - Mt family is American and British
I've lived all over the World and women in many countries dress up very feminine and beautiful. Perhaps that's why they ask you if you are European. I think it's a lost art in America. Women in America wear yoga pants or workout clothes all day unless they have somewhere specific to dress for. They have traded beauty for comfort.
Since wearing pants is not considered a sin, I’m perfectly happy wearing my scrub pants while at work! They’re less revealing than most snug fitted scrub skirts anyways
*Read your Bible and you'll see it says that God created us nude with no shame. This was because in God's ideal world, we embrace our bodies as a physical reflection of God's spirit. God is an artist and we're His art 🎨 therefore, when you embrace yourself, you embrace Him. The reason Adam and Eve immediately hated themselves after they sinned and covered themselves is because they, in sinning, turned away from God and therefore turned away from themselves since their bodies reflected God. God didn't give them clothes because He chose to and He was "covering us in His glory"; that entire context was telling us about how we fell out of His glory. Clothing only came into play when shame, brokenness, evil, and sin did meaning that it's a symbol of these things and the broken bond between God and man. Being ashamed of your image is being ashamed of God's and He didn't create us to be ashamed of His masterpiece and bury it down to where nobody can see it, He created us to display our art in a museum and be happy when someone gazes upon our beauty. That's why people like David, Esther and Isaiah all got elevated when they did this but Vashti, Micah and Isaiah's critics, who bashed them for it, got kicked to the curve. That's also why people today, who flaunt their bodies, make it big while people who bash them fade into nothing.*
We have so much to learn. Thank you and praise you Holy Trinity for your patience with us all. Thank you and God bless you, Father Chad Ripperger, Sensus Fidelium ✝️🙏

I live across the street from my Church and I usually wear a modest dress. There are some exceptions depending on the weather. Sometimes I have to clear the snow, so I wear pants and then I go across the street and help clear the snow in front of the church. When I go into church, I put on a mantilla.
You probably act even more like a gentleman, too. Which probably encourages many around you. I believe much of the way others act toward us are a result of how we portray ourselves. I feel more humble when I wear a dress and a veil in church. More aware that how I act should always be in a way that is pleasing to Jesus. Sweet Jesus, I love You.

Just lead the way. I wear a skirt or dress everyday and coordinate and accessorize my handbag, shoes, scarf or jewelry. The other day someone at the grocery store told me I didn’t need to help her get her grocery cart because I must be tired from working all day. I said, no it’s fine I’m a homemaker. She said wow you look dressed up for grocery shopping. I feel better when I take care of myself, my home, and my family. As Fr.

It's a little tougher to live on the farm in a dress, although obviously women have done physical labor of many types in dresses throughout history. But I am trying to wear more dresses, and always to Mass. It does make me feel feminine and pretty. But I certainly stand out. Not many others doing the same.
How women dress changes the way men perceive and treat them. I've seen this in action before! There was this guy a while back in college that had a girlfriend, and she always wore jeans and sneakers. One day he saw a woman walk past in a nice dress and he opened the door for her. His girlfriend balked and said "you never open the door for me!" The boyfriend replied "That's because she's a lady!"
I dislike dresses and skirts but I have always wished that things such as robes and cloaks would be more popular because I love them. I only wish I could find somewhere that sells them.
Dear Fr. Ripperger, I'm nearly 76 years of age. I graduated HS in 1967. Not until 1968 were female students permitted to dress in "slacks" (NEVER called "pants"). I dressed in skirts or dresses up until 1968. One of the problems: disgusting male teachers who sat female students in front rows to look at their legs and up their skirts/dresses. Can you imagine how that made the female students feel? Can you really? I learned early on in life that most men do not know how to look at a woman properly, even when a woman wears a dress or skirt. Also, slacks keep a woman's legs warm in winter. Consider the necessity of a woman wearing slack for sports. She can't very well do gymnastics in a skirt or dress, now can she? A woman can very much still "look" feminine wearing slacks. A woman can, of course, dress modestly wearing slacks. I don't condone tight clothing, neither for women or men. Tight clothing detracts from the beauty of the human body. I sometimes Substitute Teach and am appalled at the way some female middle school students come to class, dressed as if they were going to the beach. Unfortunately, there are laws forbidding teachers to say anything to these students. Sometimes, I can't help myself, and say out loud while passing in the hallways: "You forgot to get dressed." "Put on a blouse." "This isn't a beach." "Go home and get dressed." Or to some male students: "Pull up your pants." Sometimes I write the word, "modesty" on the board. "For your homework, look up the meaning of the word "modesty." I don't understand why there is no dress code in public schools. A benefit of wearing a uniform in Catholic schools is modest dress.
Roger Scruton on The importance of Beauty focused on art and architecture. Per Fr.Ripperger's video, attire deserves the same attention. Compare police uniforms from Mayberry rfd to the robocops infesting d.c. to get a sense of the depths of diifference of the spirit manifesting itself
What someone wears certainly affects their behavior. It also affects how people treat you and act around you.I always wear dresses or a skirt. I enjoy feeling feminine. I am very grateful for the excellent priests who taught modesty. You can look stylish and modest at the same time.
Amen! I would love to hear about woman in a positive light here on this cannel! I feel like most FSSP parishes now blame everything on feminism and place most women in a negative light

I know of someone who fell into SA due in great part to a resentment towards the rejection of immodest women. He is now trying to live a Catholic life. But the interesting thing is that he finds well dressed and modest feminine women attractive. I think Fr Ripperger is right, that changing the way we dress in society will really help fix things. I know that when I wear a tie and a waste coat, I feel normal and taller. When I just throw on an untucked shirt without even a neckerchief, I end up feeling lousy and weird looking. I am not saying that fashion fixes everything. But it makes sense that it has a greater influence than we think.
I totally agree with you, if people dressed with more effort, it would change how we treat others. I usually wear skirts and dresses, but I wear modest pants sometimes. One time when I was a girl, my dad took me shopping at the mall and we were waiting for the bus to go home. Some guys were goofing around and one of them told the others to knock it off because “a lady is present”. I think I was wearing pants when this happened, so pants can be modest and ladylike.
@@theresaarnold8911 Yes, exactly. Thank you for sharing. It is interesting to see, from looking at pictures, how the way we dress has degraded over time. In trying to dress better it can be difficult to find the balance. On the one hand I don't want to dress too old fashioned, since that could draw a lot of attention and be immodest. But I don't wish to be too laxed either. The strategy I have at the moment is to at minimum wear a collared shirt. I try to wear some sort of neckwear when I go out, and usually a waste coat. I find that as long as the colours are mostly neutral, it doesn't stand out too much. It stands out a little, but in a positive way. I do at times wear brighter ties if at night time. It must be even more difficult for ladies to figure out that balance than for men.
@@CatholicK5357 in some respects, I think women have it easier than men in this regard. We’re supposed to stick out a little with our clothing choices, but it’s how we stick out that’s key. Most people just note that I’m well dressed and leave it at that. Personally, I just make sure I’m dressed appropriately for the occasion and that I’m not showing a lot of skin. Personally, I like to keep bottoms knee length or longer and I also keep my shirts elbow length or longer.
@@theresaarnold8911 Great point. That seems like a good rule of thumb. As long as we are making an attempt, then I think God appreciates that. On a personal note, I have an extra appreciation when women dress modestly because of having Asperger's. Because of it, I end up having to look down a lot in crowds from being overwhelmed. One of my greatest fears is for ladies to think that I'm staring at their legs while looking at the ground. But when women are dressed modestly that fear is completely taken away. God bless.
@@CatholicK5357 women, at least I, wouldn’t assume you were checking out my legs by keeping your eyes down. If it doesn’t look like you’re looking at the cleavage or other inappropriate areas, it’s really not a big deal. Don’t overthink it and just do what you need to do to function! God Bless!
I dress modestly, except at 65 years old, my feet hurt regardless of how much I spend on shoes. If I go out with feminine attire and wear sneakers with inserts, oh my, I just think people will think I look weird. I don't care for myself, but it is not helpful to draw people to Catholicism if I look like a frump. When I wear a nicer, expensive well made shoe, my feel still hurt so much that it's hard to run errands and then grocery shop. Then I come home back into my sneakers with my dress. It's not a pretty look. The rest of my outfit is more feminine, I wear light makeup, style my hair etc., so that I can at least look feminine even if in pants. I find myself going back and forth between pants and dresses.

I have terrible feet too, and I don't have a car. I have to wals a few kilometers even riding buses when doing my errands. I stubbed my toe badly last Saturday. it didn't break but the joint, where there's a big bunion really felt it. I was in a lot of pain today when I had to do some shopping. I just offer it up. I don't take painkillers although I had a small glass of vermouth with my lunch to ease the pain. Try to find orthopedic shoes that aren't too ugly. I live in Israel so I can't recommend brands although I got some Hush Puppy sandals that are comfortable and not too ugly. But my closed ones are sort of Mary Janes in a faux snakeskin. A bit old ladyish but not too frumpy. With a nice dress, and accessories, I can manage them. Unless you have a fantastic figure, and then that brings up other issues, Trousers can make women our age look frumpy especially if they are loose fitting. Stick to dresses.
There's one thing I don't agree with what father ripperger stated. He said that clothing that is imperfect is not sinful, but we must remember that Jesus said, nothing imperfect can enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore the clothing is not perfect and thus the person must go through some purification in purgatory for their sin. That concept is a bit confusing. Perhaps what he means is that some clothing is not immodest. But it is not perfect. Maybe he is trying to say that a typical long flowing dress is the perfection of clothing, but there are other styles that are not immodest such as long loose pants covering the midriff, but are not perfect. If someone sees this, feel free to comment about it.
I also want to point out that, he mentioned that pants are not sinful in themselves, but most pants today are worn quite tight. Therefore, most of the time they are sinful
I wish it were true that modest dress and virtuous behaviour drew men with good intentions, but I have seen men with proper understanding often ignore it and marrying for either sensuality or social advancement. If a traditional woman wants to marry even a man in that movement, she cannot ignore these things.
A woman needs to choose a virtuous man that is looking for a virtuous woman. She needs to pray for a good husband and father for her children and that will solve the problem.🙏😇

@@starhunter9085 You mention God but say modesty is "an absolute joke". So you must also think of the holy scriptures as "an absolute joke", because God speaks through them and requires that we dress modestly. He is not against wearing expensive clothing or looking beautiful. But as much as we should, our manner of dress should not look immoral or indecent. We must display humility and the fear of God in every aspect of our lives. Also: "For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. You must be careful so that your freedom does not cause others with a weaker conscience to stumble." Also: "The LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them". So modesty is not an "idea" as you call it, but a Godly, Biblical virtue.

God made woman beautiful and attractive to men. It is only natural that men should find you attractive. When it turns bad is when your clothing is meant to illicit lust.
@Ro Free would you call it rape if the woman took all her clothes off and wrapped her legs around the man? Seriously, at what point do you consider her provocation intentional? Obviously we have different standards of when the woman is guilty but we both can draw a line somewhere meaning we agree there is a line.
I am an 80 yo woman who has poor circulation in my legs. My legs and ankles are swollen most of the time. I wear pants all of the time now because of vanity in not wanting my ugly legs on display and not being able to wear the appropriate shoes that go along with a nice dress or skirt. I think the rest of my attire displays that I am a woman who enjoys color and jewelry and the other accouterments of age-appropriate fashionable dress. And, being rather fluffy and shrinking to less than 5 ft, long skirts make me look like a mushroom. Back in the day, I always wore a dress/skirt to Mass, and my husband and I taught our daughters to dress modestly. The boys did okay despite complaining that I made them look like Richie Cunningham from Happy Days.
@@Meira750 She' probably already getting medical care. Sometimes it just can't be helped. I'm in that category from heart failure. Sometimes long skirts draw more attention to you than loose-fitting slacks. I have a friend who wears those wide-legged pants in soft fabrics that drape. They look beautiful on her, and it's hard to tell they aren't a dress unless she takes long steps. What do you think would be the thing to do in her situation? I'd really like to have more options and all advice would be appreciated!
if they are too tight yes, they should not reveal your shape but conceal. also should not revealing too much of the upper arm (like the baby tees or cap sleeves.) I find looser clothes are much more comfortable for summer anyway 😁
I have pictures of my Polish grandmother Baba. In a skirt to her ankles and a shawl with her babuska. I think the picture was taken in the 1920 or 30. Where I live now there are many Muslims. Some of the lady's wear the full burka, some Western style clothing with a hadaji. Is that modest enough.? As Disabled veteran I go to the PX. And commasary at Ft. Bragg ,NC. I see many female soliders in the duty uniform wearing their Hadaji even military police on duty? I guess all the catholic folks in Europe who practice Social Nudism are doomed? Just curious?

Father Ripperger has so much of importance to say I am surprised he's wasted his breath on this lightweight topic. I am a women. I don't wish I was male. But I have never wished to "attract" a man. "Feminine" clothing has its place. But you should dress to please yourself, not any man. I am happy wearing modest trousers and tops and dressing appropriately for each occasion. I look utterly ridiculous in a dress so I never wear one. What women wear is their business, not any mans. And I am not a feminist. I don't understand the psyche of women who want to look and behave like slobbish men. All Catholic priests should periodically remind their congregations that they should not come into church wearing shorts, leggings, tank tops or spaghetti strap tops/dresses and have their upper arms and butts covered. And perhaps priests should be told to follow those rules as well. When I went to Saturday morning mass my parish priest was messing about on the altar before mass wearing Bermuda shorts, a polo shirt and open toe sandals. Then he nipped off, threw on his vestments and returned to start the mass.
To be a Christian you must belong to the mystical body of Christ on earth the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH that’s IT! Protestant’s are NOT Christian! Christianity is the holy Catholic Church full stop. God bless. Praise Jesus and Mary always!!! Ps please watch the warning or illumination of conscience by Christine Watkins! Then Don’t call protestant’s Christian. Only Catholic’s are!
@@tgriff5747 look for the soap series from Turkey called Hercai, and specifically for Reyyan and Mavi (the horse), you'll see the actress is perfectly able to sit in the saddle and galop with her horse looking femenine and fierce. Of course, it get's a little up, but I don't think that should be a problem because anyways you should always try to use some kind of underwear that covers a little in case you fall or an emergency where you have to run (fire, earthquakes, you might need to hold the dress so that it doesn't drape that far or makes you trip), also having tight shorts protects from shaffing and if you have to hold the kids in such an emergency you are able to clip it under the short so that it doesn't drape that far away.... I hope this helps!
I can't think of anything more degrading and sickening to a woman than having a mere man be in the position of judging her or even just qualities about her. Leave it to Jesus, He's the only man deserving or qualified enough.
EVEN TRADS IN TRADITIONAL CHAPELS FORGOT HOW DRESSE PROPERLY 😞😞😞😔NO VEILS PANTS LOW CUT DRESSES OPEN SHOULDERS ETC ETC ETC AND PRIESTS DO NOT SAY A WORD TO THEM ( FALSE HUMAN RESPECT )
Exactly! Women and men on the altar in jeans and T shirts, and women in immodest dress. Shorts at Mass, both men and women! They do not dress for the feast, or the Bridegroom!
True. I see more of them. And especially when the weather is hot. The men during weekday Masses attending in shorts; however, I do not judge them, I just say the same thing Jesus said on the Cross, but I direct the plea to Jesus to forgive them, since they don't know what they are doing. If the priests do not say a word, it is also because no one has brought it up to the priest. In a bulletin, parishioners are asked not to go directly to the one dressed offensively, but to bring it up to the priest. And then there are other priests (yes, traditional) who caution us as parishioners not to judge the others by their attire.
What a load of legends. God never lined the animals up to see if they were appropriate partners. Crock. God created mutual attraction. Why invent all that stuff? 😮
Hello, At the beginning of the video, the preacher says "holy ghost". I've never heard that before, "holy spirit" yes, but "holy ghost" never. Is there a difference or is it synonymous ? In French there is only one way to say it, wich is "Saint Esprit". The litteral translation of "ghost" in French is "fantôme", which means the surnatural manifestation of a dead person. It seems weird to me to call the holy spirit holy ghost...
They can be used interchangeably though I have heard that ghost is more accurate then spirit when considering the ancient languages that we use. I thought it was weird at first too but for a long time now it's just another way of saying it to me. I started hearing more about it when I went to Latin Mass
I am old, and I grew up with "Holy Ghost". It seems to have just been replaced over the years because of the "Casper the ghost" thing and suchlike. People think of the wrong kind of "ghost" nowadays.
Father, speak about the issue more on effeminacy with men. Many women such as myself even were attracted to effeminate men. However I see an issue with effeminacy as it says effeminacy is a sin and they won't inherit the kingdom of heaven.
God creating women to not work? this is really far fetched, I understand being a stay at home mom you cannot also work elsewhere because of time consumption, but women definitely need to work, even the stay at home moms have to do things that are dificult to do in some pretty dress. I don't know what exactly women are supposed to do in paradise then, just smile and look pretty, I don't know seems like a boring place to go then
On this one I have to respectfully disagree with the idea that women were created to not work. Perhaps not outside the home shooting a squirrel for dinner or herding cattle, but if you want hard work, try raising children properly, keeping a nice home, and being a good wife to your husband. That's work! I always feel put down and belittled when someone says I didn't work.
It is blatantly ironic that, during a talk on modesty, we must be bombarded with grossly immodest(and ugly, at that) art nudes. I suppose modesty does not apply to "art?"
The art portrayed in the video doesn’t look like the type of art created to incite lust. Nudity in religious artworks is sometimes used but isnt necessarily wrong or gross. It can be used to share a certain message or to display the beauty of the human form. So, I don’t see the art being ugly as you mentioned. But modesty does still apply to art, and there are boundaries in the type of messages the artist can share while still preserving a sense of modesty. If the artist degrades the human person to just their bodily features, then yes that would seem gross and immoral. But, if they were depicting something like a scene of Adam and Eve in the garden, then it wouldn’t be wrong for the figures to be unclothed, so long as the artist does not attempt to focus excessively on their bodies.
That's right because they weren't painted for lascivious intent. Better never go to the Sistine Chapel, your head will explode at the nearly naked Christ in the center of Michelangelo's "Final Judgement" staring you smack in the face behind the altar.
@@StellaLuscia same reasoning as the "christian nudist" who extol nudist beaches and camps, because the "human form is beautiful and nothing to be ashamed of." All Nudity(and immodesty), as affirmed in Sacred Scripture, is shameful.
It’s more virtuous to wear a skirt than pants? This is insane. Tell that to the women who work with machinery that their dress could get caught in. Tell that to the women who have men looking up their skirts at every chance. Tell that to the women who work with dangerous chemicals. Tell that to women who live in extremely cold weather. Tell that to women to have to work in business competing with men to pay the bills.
I agree with modesty but please don't assume all women like shopping ,makeup and that kind of stuff. I actually hate all that and consider it a vanity. Give me jeans and tee shirts any day. I hate dresses. Ugh.
I strongly disagree with timestamp 12:42 "It has become the general custom of women to wear pants today." That's not custom Father. It's the custom of Chinese women to wear pants, under their long garment, and even Our Lady of Shee Shan has pants, but it is not a Western custom to wear pants but a Western perversion brought on by militant Marxists in the fashion industry and television programming. The custom here in North America going back hundreds of years is long dresses. Our culture is what our grandparents and their parents and their parents did, not what our current degenerate society is doing. It has to be because the women in the area where I'm living all wear leggings, with very rare exceptions. I refuse to believe that that is culture. That's perversion, so it begs the question, "What is culture, or custom, which is formed by culture?" And the answer that I've come to is, "It's the thing we've been doing for a long long time, and that dear Father is wearing long dresses, not pants." God bless you! Ave Maria.
And at timestamp 12:52 the lady's pants are so tight that you can actually see that lady's labia, while talking about women's pants not being sinful. Who makes these videos? Does Father Ripperger actually approve them?
And timestamp 13:14 Father talks about women's pants being cut differently. Ok. Father men's pants aren't immodest on women, but 'women's pants are all about showing curvature, which is immodest. It's crossdressing, but we're blind because we've seen crossdressing since Shirley Temple.
Father is spot on! Im a lady and i feel more tired, serious when i wear pants, but when i wear skirts and dresses, i feel girly, sweet and more likely to be friendly. Clothing is strange
As a fellow lady, skirts are less constricting than pants, imo.
Clothes do affect our way of thinking, this is true! I've noticed that if you dress modestly you think humbly but if you dress with expensive and immodest clothes, you feel proud and think highly of yourself (which displeases God).
Haha i experience this too. It's indeed strange 😊

Not only a lack of modesty in the United States but profane and gross choice of dress is now the “new normal”. Ave Maria…we need your divine intervention ✝️🙏
Same here in the UK. Not only dress immodestly but to wear it to church. Sad..
It's kinda hard when you see a woman who dresses improperly at Mass, no less, sitting in front of you! But, at Mass, no less! And, in the FRONT PEW!! It's embarassing!
Agree! Especially the "athleisure wear" fad that's become normal to wear everywhere. The tight spandex with shorter shirts that don't cover a persons backside and everything else has got to go. It's very unbecoming not to mention just plain gross.

Same. Especially with the Blessed Sacrament on the altar in my room, it’s a must for me. I only wear capris when I’m walking the trails, but am thinking of getting a long skirt for that too
A lot of Christian RUclipsr women have fashion advice videos for modest clothing!
In Islam, both men and women are required to dress modestly. However, Muslim women have special clothes which they sometimes choose to wear in order to protect their modesty.
Many Muslim women wear a hijab or veil to protect their modesty. Not all Muslim women choose to do this. In the UK this is matter of choice.
Some Muslim women wear a niqab or a burkha. Not all Muslim women choose to do this. In the UK this is a matter of choice.
Men have no requirement to dress in this way, but men are required to be modest in the way they dress.
Just throw away the skinny jeans now. Not good to offend God because you don't want to throw a load of laundry in the wash

Wierdd.. i just discussed with my spiritual director yesterday that i am struggling with modesty. Thank you father, God's timing
I questioned this for years, but as expected, Father Ripperger removed all doubt. I always much preferred wearing pants, as they gave me the sense that I could conquer the world. Year after year I asked internally and also priests about the appropriateness of wearing pants (even FSSP priests). All said pants are fine. I still couldn't help but wonder if Our Lady was referring to pants, among other fashions, when she told the visionaries that fashions would be introduced that would greatly offend Her Son. Still wearing pants, I began researching why and when women began wearing them. I learned it began as a deliberate rebellious act against social norms of the day. This summer, still wearing pants, I was determined to get an affirmative answer, HOPING the answer would be "pants are fine." I started a novena to St. Therese. I asked the Saint, "Please send me flowers if there is no way to wear pants that won't offend your Son." 45 minutes later, my daughter showed up with a bouquet of roses that had a most beautiful scent (I'm told it's rare to find roses nowadays that have that scent). When I told my daughter what had just happened she herself was stunned and excited...until I told her what the question and answer were!! :) I now wear a nursing scrub skirt at the hospital (and boy I stand out), but much to my surprise all responses have been positive. I offer it up to Our Lady, especially on the days I want to throw a pair of pants on.
I really see nothing wrong with pants.
Baggy scrub pants are better than a tight skirt.

No one tells you that skirts are actually more comfortable and practical than jeans in a lot of circumstances. Its much harder to get jeans that fit at the waist and the hip than it is to get a skirt that fits at the waist and is free at the hips. Shoe selection can be just as comfortable and practical as well. The exceptions, in my experience, are skirts that are short/tight enough to make it difficult to sit down or in the dead of winter without appropriate layers.
Dresses are even easier - you dont even have to match an outfit.
YES. And as a woman, weight can fluctuate throughout the monthly cycle and skirts/dresses are so much more forgiving. It's also been easier on me postpartum because I don't have the pressure anymore to fit into my pre-baby skinny jeans.
I'm a sweatpants wearer so I can't relate, and in the past I used leggings which I don't like
As a convert that psychological shift is very true! The moment I started wearing modest skirts and dresses vs the usual jeans/leggings, I felt a certain relief… almost as if a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. My husband notices a calmness to me, and that same week said I had become softer in my speech. God is good!
I quit wearing pants completely three years ago. I threw them all out, and I now wear long skirts. It's a very small penance for the sake of my adult daughters.
How do pants differ from skirts in modesty. They cover the same amount if floor length.
@@angelalemos9811 yes they can fullfil the law..but not the spirit.
Very tight (not well fitted) skirts are as immodest as tight 👖. Look at it. What did you notice first?
Even pants that are too tight are not modest on men!
@@angelalemos9811 The Orthodox Jewish thinking is because they define the separation of the legs, any pants are immodest. It's probably the same here. You don't have to show skin to be immodest.
@@rebn8346 Oh, yeah! I know a sweet younger woman who is probably late 30's and attractive but on New Year's Eve she came to church with a knee length, tight skirt and stiletto ankle boots. The skirt had an obvious zipper all the way up the back. Oy Vey!!! I wanted to say something but didn't know what. She hasn't had a lot of catechesis, coming from Ukraine and we're in Israel. This is the acceptable dress here even at work. I know she doesn't have a lot of money, but the poor priest and deacon who are both young men!!
@@Meira750 it would be immodest to hike up a mountain in a skirt without pants on. It has to do with both law and spirit.
I really didn't need a visual of your friend, I hope your prayed for her and brought it modestly to her attention that it didn't bring honor to God nor defend His dignity, nor hers.
Women used to wear shorts and pantaloons under the dresses for centuries. Look as traditional Asian clothes for peasants, distinctly male and female, yet very similar with pants and a shirt dress of varying length Modest and practical.
I would get a lot of offended looks in my novus ordo parish whenever I wear a long sleeved polo shirt while wearing black leather shoes. It's funny how the very same people who mock me are also the ones who dress casually, don't kneel during consecration, cross their legs in the choir area. I just pray for them instead of getting angry. I am planning to attend a traditional latin mass for the for the first time. Please pray for me folks and the people in our parish especially our parish priests. Thank you.
God bless you
It must be where you live. In my parish, a polo shirt at Mass would be "dressed up" it's not uncommon to see torn t-shirts with "Raiders" printed on it.
nice steps towards correct dress! a tie and jacket would be more appropriate for Mass however

*Nowhere in the Bible does it say that our bodies cause others to sin, that's a misinterpretation. The Bible is clear that our bodies are made in God's image and, because of that, we're the crown jewel of His creation. That's why there was no shame in nudity but we've lost sight of that but that doesn't mean that truth changes. Hebrews 13:8 tells us that Jesus is the same yesterday and today and tomorrow so if He thought our bodies were shameless yesterday, He still believes this today. Yes we have to cover certain areas of our bodies when we're in public because we'll get arrested for indecent exposure if we don't but clothing isn't God's creation nor was it ever intended by Him so it's not a priority of His. 1 Samuel 16:7 says WE LOOK AT PHYSICAL APPEARANCE WHILE GOD LOOKS AT THE HEART ❤ and that couldn't be any more true. David, Esther, Isaiah and Adam and Eve (before the fall) were all elevated when they embraced their natural beauty (bodies) so our bodies are not shameful "stumbling blocks", they're glorious elevation tools.*
Those of us in nursing have to wear scrubs for the most part. I can't imagine the Church having a problem with that. Most doctors would not be thrilled to see me in an old nurses dress - well some might, but not for the right reasons necessarily.
But I do notice that men open doors for me, pull out my chair, even buy my lunch at times for me when I'm dressed in a skirt and a top. Can't tell you how many times I've been asked if I'm European - Mt family is American and British
There is such a thing as a scrub skirt, which is not a "old timey nursing costume", but rather a fairly utilitarian skirt made from scrubs fabric.
I've lived all over the World and women in many countries dress up very feminine and beautiful. Perhaps that's why they ask you if you are European. I think it's a lost art in America. Women in America wear yoga pants or workout clothes all day unless they have somewhere specific to dress for. They have traded beauty for comfort.
I just started wearing a scrub skirt in the hospital-I was a little nervous about what reactions I'd get, but so far all positive!
Since wearing pants is not considered a sin, I’m perfectly happy wearing my scrub pants while at work! They’re less revealing than most snug fitted scrub skirts anyways
*Read your Bible and you'll see it says that God created us nude with no shame. This was because in God's ideal world, we embrace our bodies as a physical reflection of God's spirit. God is an artist and we're His art 🎨 therefore, when you embrace yourself, you embrace Him. The reason Adam and Eve immediately hated themselves after they sinned and covered themselves is because they, in sinning, turned away from God and therefore turned away from themselves since their bodies reflected God. God didn't give them clothes because He chose to and He was "covering us in His glory"; that entire context was telling us about how we fell out of His glory. Clothing only came into play when shame, brokenness, evil, and sin did meaning that it's a symbol of these things and the broken bond between God and man. Being ashamed of your image is being ashamed of God's and He didn't create us to be ashamed of His masterpiece and bury it down to where nobody can see it, He created us to display our art in a museum and be happy when someone gazes upon our beauty. That's why people like David, Esther and Isaiah all got elevated when they did this but Vashti, Micah and Isaiah's critics, who bashed them for it, got kicked to the curve. That's also why people today, who flaunt their bodies, make it big while people who bash them fade into nothing.*

I live across the street from my Church and I usually wear a modest dress. There are some exceptions depending on the weather. Sometimes I have to clear the snow, so I wear pants and then I go across the street and help clear the snow in front of the church. When I go into church, I put on a mantilla.
When i see a woman in a dress,veil and what not it reminds me to be a man. Be masculine.

You probably act even more like a gentleman, too. Which probably encourages many around you. I believe much of the way others act toward us are a result of how we portray ourselves.

Very concise and clear, thank you.
It's a little tougher to live on the farm in a dress, although obviously women have done physical labor of many types in dresses throughout history. But I am trying to wear more dresses, and always to Mass. It does make me feel feminine and pretty. But I certainly stand out. Not many others doing the same.
How women dress changes the way men perceive and treat them. I've seen this in action before! There was this guy a while back in college that had a girlfriend, and she always wore jeans and sneakers. One day he saw a woman walk past in a nice dress and he opened the door for her. His girlfriend balked and said "you never open the door for me!" The boyfriend replied "That's because she's a lady!"
I am clinging to modesty! It is so hard- hardly any modest clothing is sold in stores
thank you so true it all of us Lay people not just Religious and their habits
Wonderful sermon! I need to learn more about modesty in men.
I dislike dresses and skirts but I have always wished that things such as robes and cloaks would be more popular because I love them. I only wish I could find somewhere that sells them.
Dear Fr. Ripperger,
I'm nearly 76 years of age. I graduated HS in 1967. Not until 1968 were female students permitted to dress in "slacks" (NEVER called "pants"). I dressed in skirts or dresses up until 1968. One of the problems: disgusting male teachers who sat female students in front rows to look at their legs and up their skirts/dresses. Can you imagine how that made the female students feel? Can you really? I learned early on in life that most men do not know how to look at a woman properly, even when a woman wears a dress or skirt. Also, slacks keep a woman's legs warm in winter. Consider the necessity of a woman wearing slack for sports. She can't very well do gymnastics in a skirt or dress, now can she? A woman can very much still "look" feminine wearing slacks. A woman can, of course, dress modestly wearing slacks. I don't condone tight clothing, neither for women or men. Tight clothing detracts from the beauty of the human body. I sometimes Substitute Teach and am appalled at the way some female middle school students come to class, dressed as if they were going to the beach. Unfortunately, there are laws forbidding teachers to say anything to these students. Sometimes, I can't help myself, and say out loud while passing in the hallways: "You forgot to get dressed." "Put on a blouse." "This isn't a beach." "Go home and get dressed." Or to some male students: "Pull up your pants." Sometimes I write the word, "modesty" on the board. "For your homework, look up the meaning of the word "modesty." I don't understand why there is no dress code in public schools. A benefit of wearing a uniform in Catholic schools is modest dress.
Thank you God bless

What someone wears certainly affects their behavior. It also affects how people treat you and act around you.I always wear dresses or a skirt. I enjoy feeling feminine. I am very grateful for the excellent priests who taught modesty. You can look stylish and modest at the same time.
I feel that I have may heard this sermon on this channel before, has it been reuploaded?
There was a similar one with different (and a few of the same) points made (:

Very important topic
Hi! Does Fr Ripperger have anything on hair length for men? Thanks!
I'm happy to hear this! 😍ty Father!
I know of someone who fell into SA due in great part to a resentment towards the rejection of immodest women. He is now trying to live a Catholic life. But the interesting thing is that he finds well dressed and modest feminine women attractive. I think Fr Ripperger is right, that changing the way we dress in society will really help fix things. I know that when I wear a tie and a waste coat, I feel normal and taller. When I just throw on an untucked shirt without even a neckerchief, I end up feeling lousy and weird looking. I am not saying that fashion fixes everything. But it makes sense that it has a greater influence than we think.
I totally agree with you, if people dressed with more effort, it would change how we treat others. I usually wear skirts and dresses, but I wear modest pants sometimes. One time when I was a girl, my dad took me shopping at the mall and we were waiting for the bus to go home. Some guys were goofing around and one of them told the others to knock it off because “a lady is present”. I think I was wearing pants when this happened, so pants can be modest and ladylike.
@@theresaarnold8911 Yes, exactly. Thank you for sharing. It is interesting to see, from looking at pictures, how the way we dress has degraded over time. In trying to dress better it can be difficult to find the balance. On the one hand I don't want to dress too old fashioned, since that could draw a lot of attention and be immodest. But I don't wish to be too laxed either.
The strategy I have at the moment is to at minimum wear a collared shirt. I try to wear some sort of neckwear when I go out, and usually a waste coat. I find that as long as the colours are mostly neutral, it doesn't stand out too much. It stands out a little, but in a positive way. I do at times wear brighter ties if at night time. It must be even more difficult for ladies to figure out that balance than for men.
@@CatholicK5357 in some respects, I think women have it easier than men in this regard. We’re supposed to stick out a little with our clothing choices, but it’s how we stick out that’s key. Most people just note that I’m well dressed and leave it at that. Personally, I just make sure I’m dressed appropriately for the occasion and that I’m not showing a lot of skin. Personally, I like to keep bottoms knee length or longer and I also keep my shirts elbow length or longer.
@@theresaarnold8911 Great point. That seems like a good rule of thumb. As long as we are making an attempt, then I think God appreciates that. On a personal note, I have an extra appreciation when women dress modestly because of having Asperger's. Because of it, I end up having to look down a lot in crowds from being overwhelmed. One of my greatest fears is for ladies to think that I'm staring at their legs while looking at the ground. But when women are dressed modestly that fear is completely taken away. God bless.
@@CatholicK5357 women, at least I, wouldn’t assume you were checking out my legs by keeping your eyes down. If it doesn’t look like you’re looking at the cleavage or other inappropriate areas, it’s really not a big deal. Don’t overthink it and just do what you need to do to function! God Bless!
I dress modestly, except at 65 years old, my feet hurt regardless of how much I spend on shoes. If I go out with feminine attire and wear sneakers with inserts, oh my, I just think people will think I look weird. I don't care for myself, but it is not helpful to draw people to Catholicism if I look like a frump. When I wear a nicer, expensive well made shoe, my feel still hurt so much that it's hard to run errands and then grocery shop. Then I come home back into my sneakers with my dress. It's not a pretty look. The rest of my outfit is more feminine, I wear light makeup, style my hair etc., so that I can at least look feminine even if in pants. I find myself going back and forth between pants and dresses.
Have you tried rockports with inserts? (I wear blundstones with orthotics)

*There are two types of modesty: Spiritual and physical*
*The Spiritual aspect is true 1000% and is made perfectly clear all throughout the Bible. It shows in the way we act and treat one another. It's what we carry in our hearts and minds and spirits. This is what God cares about and what we should be striving towards.*
*Physical modesty is a lie. It's nothing but a man made ideology designed to manipulate and control one another due to our lust for power. It's based on ignorance and our lack of understanding of what our bodies truly represent. This has no basis in the Bible or science.*
I have terrible feet too, and I don't have a car. I have to wals a few kilometers even riding buses when doing my errands. I stubbed my toe badly last Saturday. it didn't break but the joint, where there's a big bunion really felt it. I was in a lot of pain today when I had to do some shopping. I just offer it up. I don't take painkillers although I had a small glass of vermouth with my lunch to ease the pain. Try to find orthopedic shoes that aren't too ugly. I live in Israel so I can't recommend brands although I got some Hush Puppy sandals that are comfortable and not too ugly. But my closed ones are sort of Mary Janes in a faux snakeskin. A bit old ladyish but not too frumpy. With a nice dress, and accessories, I can manage them. Unless you have a fantastic figure, and then that brings up other issues, Trousers can make women our age look frumpy especially if they are loose fitting. Stick to dresses.
There's one thing I don't agree with what father ripperger stated. He said that clothing that is imperfect is not sinful, but we must remember that Jesus said, nothing imperfect can enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore the clothing is not perfect and thus the person must go through some purification in purgatory for their sin. That concept is a bit confusing. Perhaps what he means is that some clothing is not immodest. But it is not perfect. Maybe he is trying to say that a typical long flowing dress is the perfection of clothing, but there are other styles that are not immodest such as long loose pants covering the midriff, but are not perfect. If someone sees this, feel free to comment about it.
I also want to point out that, he mentioned that pants are not sinful in themselves, but most pants today are worn quite tight. Therefore, most of the time they are sinful
Flowers - have modesty - says Jesus - speaking of Solomon.
我曾经参观过一间清真寺，她们介绍说圣母是庄重的代表，穆斯林女性的装扮是很接近圣母像的穿着。
I wish it were true that modest dress and virtuous behaviour drew men with good intentions, but I have seen men with proper understanding often ignore it and marrying for either sensuality or social advancement. If a traditional woman wants to marry even a man in that movement, she cannot ignore these things.
A woman needs to choose a virtuous man that is looking for a virtuous woman. She needs to pray for a good husband and father for her children and that will solve the problem.🙏😇
Purity is what God called us to and I am God's son therefore my life should be led by holiness. Purity is true beauty.

“When people say that it is sinful for a women to wear pants that’s based.”
Sinful only when they try to look butch as in lesbianism
The style and cut of the pants, the setting the pants are worn in, the style of the complete outfit she is wearing, and the attitude expressed and carried by the woman wearing the pants and outfit is all part of the impression she is wanting to exhibit.
He did not say wearing pants was sinful! He said immodesty was sinful!
*The idea of "modesty" is an absolute joke. God created us to be fully naked with NO SHAME and it was only when we started seeing the world through our eyes rather than through God's eyes that we started viewing our bodies as disgraceful. 99% of clothing has nothing to do with trying to be sexy, it's just the person wearing what makes them comfortable. Clothing doesn't influence evil actions, immoral character does.*
@@starhunter9085
You mention God but say modesty is "an absolute joke". So you must also think of the holy scriptures as "an absolute joke", because God speaks through them and requires that we dress modestly. He is not against wearing expensive clothing or looking beautiful. But as much as we should, our manner of dress should not look immoral or indecent. We must display humility and the fear of God in every aspect of our lives.
Also:
"For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. You must be careful so that your freedom does not cause others with a weaker conscience to stumble."
Also:
"The LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them".
So modesty is not an "idea" as you call it, but a Godly, Biblical virtue.
I've made a vow to myself to wear a dress to Mass. Hoping others will too.

My mother though, made it seem like it is a bad thing to dress feminine because she didn't want her kids overly attracting men.
God made woman beautiful and attractive to men. It is only natural that men should find you attractive. When it turns bad is when your clothing is meant to illicit lust.

@@HAYAOLEONE Hi Troll
@Ro Free would you call it rape if the woman took all her clothes off and wrapped her legs around the man? Seriously, at what point do you consider her provocation intentional? Obviously we have different standards of when the woman is guilty but we both can draw a line somewhere meaning we agree there is a line.
AVE AVE AVE MARIA DEO GRATIAS
I am an 80 yo woman who has poor circulation in my legs. My legs and ankles are swollen most of the time. I wear pants all of the time now because of vanity in not wanting my ugly legs on display and not being able to wear the appropriate shoes that go along with a nice dress or skirt. I think the rest of my attire displays that I am a woman who enjoys color and jewelry and the other accouterments of age-appropriate fashionable dress. And, being rather fluffy and shrinking to less than 5 ft, long skirts make me look like a mushroom. Back in the day, I always wore a dress/skirt to Mass, and my husband and I taught our daughters to dress modestly. The boys did okay despite complaining that I made them look like Richie Cunningham from Happy Days.
I'd worry more about the cause of the swelling rather than what I'm wearing. I'm 76.
Throw a loose skirt over the pants. Viola !
@@Meira750 She' probably already getting medical care. Sometimes it just can't be helped. I'm in that category from heart failure. Sometimes long skirts draw more attention to you than loose-fitting slacks. I have a friend who wears those wide-legged pants in soft fabrics that drape. They look beautiful on her, and it's hard to tell they aren't a dress unless she takes long steps. What do you think would be the thing to do in her situation? I'd really like to have more options and all advice would be appreciated!
Are normal tight tshirts immodest?
if they are too tight yes, they should not reveal your shape but conceal. also should not revealing too much of the upper arm (like the baby tees or cap sleeves.) I find looser clothes are much more comfortable for summer anyway 😁
The dumb and dumber shot 😂😂😂
Excuse me, you've lost me be more specific
I have pictures of my Polish grandmother Baba. In a skirt to her ankles and a shawl with her babuska. I think the picture was taken in the 1920 or 30.
Where I live now there are many Muslims. Some of the lady's wear the full burka, some Western style clothing with a hadaji. Is that modest enough.? As Disabled veteran I go to the PX. And commasary at Ft. Bragg ,NC. I see many female soliders in the duty uniform wearing their Hadaji even military police on duty? I guess all the catholic folks in Europe who practice Social Nudism are doomed? Just curious?
If the constitution of female dress can change the modest length of skirts/shorts also be changed? Of course reasonably, no shorter than mid thigh.

Traditional or Modern
I notice when I wear skirts, men open doors for you more, even.falling over themselves to open a door for you
Yes, they do for me too, and I thank them! I feel honored when they say, "Let me get that door for you!" It also honors them and their mothers and fathers who taught them manners and how to be gentlemen and real men! God bless them.🙏😇💗
Word.
My wife wears tank tops often, at least not at Church, but I don't want my daughter to think that's okay.
Tell your wife that. You are the man of the family, you have authority
Voice is low .
Father Ripperger has so much of importance to say I am surprised he's wasted his breath on this lightweight topic. I am a women. I don't wish I was male. But I have never wished to "attract" a man. "Feminine" clothing has its place. But you should dress to please yourself, not any man. I am happy wearing modest trousers and tops and dressing appropriately for each occasion. I look utterly ridiculous in a dress so I never wear one. What women wear is their business, not any mans. And I am not a feminist. I don't understand the psyche of women who want to look and behave like slobbish men. All Catholic priests should periodically remind their congregations that they should not come into church wearing shorts, leggings, tank tops or spaghetti strap tops/dresses and have their upper arms and butts covered. And perhaps priests should be told to follow those rules as well. When I went to Saturday morning mass my parish priest was messing about on the altar before mass wearing Bermuda shorts, a polo shirt and open toe sandals. Then he nipped off, threw on his vestments and returned to start the mass.
silence
I doubt you look ridiculous in a dress. I would suggest you have some body image issues that could benefit from prayer and good Godly counsel.
To be a Christian you must belong to the mystical body of Christ on earth the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH that’s IT! Protestant’s are NOT Christian! Christianity is the holy Catholic Church full stop. God bless. Praise Jesus and Mary always!!! Ps please watch the warning or illumination of conscience by Christine Watkins! Then Don’t call protestant’s Christian. Only Catholic’s are!
You can't do gardening or take a hike in a dress.
My wife doesn't have a problem with either.... In fact we did 8 miles in Idaho just today.... The one problem we do have is on horses.
@@tgriff5747 Side saddle
My mom did it all the time in Italy.
@@tgriff5747 look for the soap series from Turkey called Hercai, and specifically for Reyyan and Mavi (the horse), you'll see the actress is perfectly able to sit in the saddle and galop with her horse looking femenine and fierce. Of course, it get's a little up, but I don't think that should be a problem because anyways you should always try to use some kind of underwear that covers a little in case you fall or an emergency where you have to run (fire, earthquakes, you might need to hold the dress so that it doesn't drape that far or makes you trip), also having tight shorts protects from shaffing and if you have to hold the kids in such an emergency you are able to clip it under the short so that it doesn't drape that far away.... I hope this helps!
Been there, done that.
12:48 "that it is sinful for a woman to wear pants, that is based"
I can't think of anything more degrading and sickening to a woman than having a mere man be in the position of judging her or even just qualities about her. Leave it to Jesus, He's the only man deserving or qualified enough.
cross dressing can be comedic tho so i wonder about that
13:38
EVEN TRADS IN TRADITIONAL CHAPELS FORGOT HOW DRESSE PROPERLY 😞😞😞😔NO VEILS PANTS LOW CUT DRESSES OPEN SHOULDERS ETC ETC ETC AND PRIESTS DO NOT SAY A WORD TO THEM ( FALSE HUMAN RESPECT )
Exactly! Women and men on the altar in jeans and T shirts, and women in immodest dress. Shorts at Mass, both men and women! They do not dress for the feast, or the Bridegroom!
True. I see more of them. And especially when the weather is hot. The men during weekday Masses attending in shorts; however, I do not judge them, I just say the same thing Jesus said on the Cross, but I direct the plea to Jesus to forgive them, since they don't know what they are doing. If the priests do not say a word, it is also because no one has brought it up to the priest. In a bulletin, parishioners are asked not to go directly to the one dressed offensively, but to bring it up to the priest. And then there are other priests (yes, traditional) who caution us as parishioners not to judge the others by their attire.
What a load of legends. God never lined the animals up to see if they were appropriate partners. Crock. God created mutual attraction. Why invent all that stuff? 😮
What is with all of this judgement? This is not the spirit God gave us.
Hello,
At the beginning of the video, the preacher says "holy ghost". I've never heard that before, "holy spirit" yes, but "holy ghost" never. Is there a difference or is it synonymous ? In French there is only one way to say it, wich is "Saint Esprit". The litteral translation of "ghost" in French is "fantôme", which means the surnatural manifestation of a dead person. It seems weird to me to call the holy spirit holy ghost...
They can be used interchangeably though I have heard that ghost is more accurate then spirit when considering the ancient languages that we use. I thought it was weird at first too but for a long time now it's just another way of saying it to me. I started hearing more about it when I went to Latin Mass
@@angelalemos9811 It was always Ghost before Vat 2
In German, they are the same word.
I am old, and I grew up with "Holy Ghost". It seems to have just been replaced over the years because of the "Casper the ghost" thing and suchlike. People think of the wrong kind of "ghost" nowadays.
Father, speak about the issue more on effeminacy with men. Many women such as myself even were attracted to effeminate men. However I see an issue with effeminacy as it says effeminacy is a sin and they won't inherit the kingdom of heaven.
God creating women to not work? this is really far fetched, I understand being a stay at home mom you cannot also work elsewhere because of time consumption, but women definitely need to work, even the stay at home moms have to do things that are dificult to do in some pretty dress. I don't know what exactly women are supposed to do in paradise then, just smile and look pretty, I don't know seems like a boring place to go then
In paradise you'll have things to do you won't just do that. In heaven there is no sex gender roles aren't needed so you'll have things to do
On this one I have to respectfully disagree with the idea that women were created to not work. Perhaps not outside the home shooting a squirrel for dinner or herding cattle, but if you want hard work, try raising children properly, keeping a nice home, and being a good wife to your husband. That's work! I always feel put down and belittled when someone says I didn't work.
It is blatantly ironic that, during a talk on modesty, we must be bombarded with grossly immodest(and ugly, at that) art nudes. I suppose modesty does not apply to "art?"
The art portrayed in the video doesn’t look like the type of art created to incite lust. Nudity in religious artworks is sometimes used but isnt necessarily wrong or gross. It can be used to share a certain message or to display the beauty of the human form. So, I don’t see the art being ugly as you mentioned. But modesty does still apply to art, and there are boundaries in the type of messages the artist can share while still preserving a sense of modesty. If the artist degrades the human person to just their bodily features, then yes that would seem gross and immoral. But, if they were depicting something like a scene of Adam and Eve in the garden, then it wouldn’t be wrong for the figures to be unclothed, so long as the artist does not attempt to focus excessively on their bodies.
ironic, isn't it? Could have chosen quite a few more appropriate pics.
That's right because they weren't painted for lascivious intent. Better never go to the Sistine Chapel, your head will explode at the nearly naked Christ in the center of Michelangelo's "Final Judgement" staring you smack in the face behind the altar.
@@Meira750 My head would definitely explode in the Sistine Chapel, as well as a great deal of Renaissance art.
@@StellaLuscia same reasoning as the "christian nudist" who extol nudist beaches and camps, because the "human form is beautiful and nothing to be ashamed of." All Nudity(and immodesty), as affirmed in Sacred Scripture, is shameful.
It’s more virtuous to wear a skirt than pants? This is insane. Tell that to the women who work with machinery that their dress could get caught in. Tell that to the women who have men looking up their skirts at every chance. Tell that to the women who work with dangerous chemicals. Tell that to women who live in extremely cold weather. Tell that to women to have to work in business competing with men to pay the bills.

I strongly disagree with timestamp 12:42 "It has become the general custom of women to wear pants today." That's not custom Father. It's the custom of Chinese women to wear pants, under their long garment, and even Our Lady of Shee Shan has pants, but it is not a Western custom to wear pants but a Western perversion brought on by militant Marxists in the fashion industry and television programming. The custom here in North America going back hundreds of years is long dresses. Our culture is what our grandparents and their parents and their parents did, not what our current degenerate society is doing. It has to be because the women in the area where I'm living all wear leggings, with very rare exceptions. I refuse to believe that that is culture. That's perversion, so it begs the question, "What is culture, or custom, which is formed by culture?" And the answer that I've come to is, "It's the thing we've been doing for a long long time, and that dear Father is wearing long dresses, not pants." God bless you! Ave Maria.
And at timestamp 12:52 the lady's pants are so tight that you can actually see that lady's labia, while talking about women's pants not being sinful. Who makes these videos? Does Father Ripperger actually approve them?
And timestamp 13:14 Father talks about women's pants being cut differently. Ok. Father men's pants aren't immodest on women, but 'women's pants are all about showing curvature, which is immodest. It's crossdressing, but we're blind because we've seen crossdressing since Shirley Temple.
And the girl in that picture has blue hair and tight pants, only her hand swinging in front of her crotch covers her.
out of all things Marxists do, if pants are one of them then I can handle this and only this, because sweats are mighty comfy
