Picture a young, vibrant, beautiful woman. Now, imagine the worst plumber’s rear-end cleavage. Formerly, these two thoughts would not intertwine, but today, it’s quite the norm. Perhaps we as a nation need go back to the thoughts expressed in the Bible for guidance. My favorite one is, “Like a gold ring in a pigs nose is a woman who lacks discretion.”
A gold ring symbolizes many things; beauty, value, and lasting purity. A pigs nose, on the other hand, makes one thinks of dirt, muck, and all things detestable. Anyone dumb enough to put his precious and valuable gold ring in the nose of a slimy, lazy pig, opens himself up to judgement of sensibility. Common sense would tell us to protect what is valuable, not to throw it away. I believe common sense is not so common anymore.
Every day I see them, women without discretion. They have covered (or uncovered) so much of themselves that there is little left to the imagination. They have bought into something that tells them the only way they have value is if a man desires them. This is the condition of “Americanized” women. Even women from other countries are consumed when they arrive here. Our culture, while devaluing women into objects, succeeds in making them believe that their body is their worth. They lose all discretion and are led around by their desire to be wanted. Men play off of that desire, use them, then throw them away.
The latest disgusting trend is with the low cut jeans. They might look really cute when worn standing in front of a mirror (so I have been told), but the functionality of these pants is lacking. Do these women know that every time they sit down in a seat, everyone behind them gets an eyeful of underwear and/or rear cleavage? I don’t know, but I want them to! I want to scream out until each and every one picks up her dignity, straps on a little discretion, and tells men, “If you want to like me for who I am, great, but I will not mold myself into who you want me to be!”
When women left their traditional roles as stay-at-home moms, they said it was to become more, to be who they wanted, to be their best. That never happened to the majority. The majority dropped one stereotype to slip on another. Now, instead cooking and sewing to win the affections of a man, they are baring it all in wet t-shirt contests, and trying to out drink them. Which of these are valuable skills you might need in the future?
Sarcasm aside, we need to go back to home grown thinking. Be who you are, and if the guys like it, fine. If they don’t like you for who you really are, do you really want to spend the rest of your life with them? A real man is one who appreciates a girl with discretion. Respect yourself. Don’t waste your valuable and precious gift on a pig!
