+1  And that is not the type of daughters we want to raise in our household.  We want strong, independent girls and women, not girls and women who judge themselves based on the attention they get from others according to how they dress.  Yuck.

Yet, you judge others and ascribe motive to others based on what they're wearing.  That's not how you raise strong, independent women who make choices based on their preferences rather than their fear of judgement.

Actually you make my point.  When a girl wears extreme clothes because she wants other peoples' responses to it...that is not a strong, independent girl.  That is a girl who is insecure and shallow.  My girls will judge away, and they stay away from that train wreck. [/quote][/quote]

No, I'm not. It is your continued judgements and assumptions that negatively impacts the healthy development of girls.  For example, you are judging clothing choice to be 'extreme'.  You are judging the girls as insecure and shallow because of their clothing choices.  You are encouraging your children - not just your girls - to judge others for the clothing choices they make and call these girls 'train wrecks'.

You, Karen, are the problem.  Are you, perchance, a fundie?  You sure sound like one.  You judge others not by their character but by their compliance with your misogynistic views. [/quote]
