Clearly, some people took it too far and then religion came along. And then some people took that too far and now we're seeing the recoil from that action. At what point do we just go, "Its no longer necessary. We have medicine and science and houses and weapons and clothes nd armour and machines and cars now. We aren't gonna get eaten by animals or perish from the weather and disease. Spreading your seed far and wide is no longer necessary. We've evolved, becomes civilized, no need to act like animals or use animalistic instincts as excuses for our failures. Sleeping around, man or woman, after a point is just sad, unhealthy in the long term, and is simply not worth the risks that come with it.

I have worked with street STW in the most dangerous and degraded areas of our cities. Almost all of them were abused as children, all of them have serious substance-abuse and mental health problems. Their life expectancy is short and many will die violently. Most did not choose this way of life and have little hope of changing their situation despite the outreach programs that are available. Each of these women’s story is an absolute tragedy. Now if we add victims of human trafficking to this horror show, it gets even worse. If there are women who are able to earn money through similar work but they can do this from the comfort and safety of their own homes, sure, go for it. They have the luxury of choice, which way too many female and male STWs lack. Thank you so much for the video. 🙏

[@jimmyjams962]

"Men should be held accountable for their inappropriate advances..." Like you, there's no disagreement on that point from MOST men. The issue is that a lot of those women believe that an "inappropriate advance" is a man looking in her direction for what she deems to be "too long", even though in many cases that glance is... well... just that - a glance. There are countless "gym creep" videos that substantiate this claim. The logical retort is that it is completely irrational to dress provocatively and then to turn around and complain when said outfit elicits provocation (i.e. glances in her direction), as if men are to blame for being attracted to women. But again, the overwhelming majority of men won't defend the predator who outrightly harasses a woman dressed in revealing clothing. At the end of the day, it comes down to this: if a woman walks down the street naked, she has no right to complain that men are looking at her with sexual desire, but by the same token, men also have no right to harass or assault her. It's that simple.

One should never be ashamed of their body, especially if they are religious - it is after all the body God gave them. However, modesty is about respecting your community and the people around you. Modesty does not equal shame.

[@alphacause]

Thank you, Baggage Claim, for this great argument for the reinstatement of modesty. We need more channels like yours that approach this from a secular perspective, as so many people are not receptive to this same exhortation coming from religious KZbin channels. The near ubiquity of sexually provocative material in pop culture and media also makes the naked body less of a shocking and provocative thing. It has made nudity and sexual material so banal and far from exhilarating. So it is having the exact opposite effect, overtime, from what these exhibitionists are hoping displaying their naked bodies will do for them. In fact, such displays of nudity, to me, are now a good predicative indicator that these people have nothing of artistic or intellectual substantive to offer.

Covering up and revealing are both the sides of the same coin. They're both suffocating and insulting. Why can't we just be normal, why sexualize everything?

When the kids in my extended family were children the Moms were distressed because little girl clothes were immodest and inappropriate. Even some baby clothes had nasty sayings on the onesies. Our family held the line and dressed kids, girls mostly, modestly. There’s where the problem started. Elementary school programs featured little girls in off-the-shoulder dresses, lace insets like plunging necklines, cutouts all over, and crap like “I’m hot” in bright pink glitter. Modesty, like other virtues needs to be taught and learned by example. Don’t let your kids watch music videos, award shows, and other popular entertainment. They’re nasty and too many of the women compete to be the raunchiest.

That’s the problem with the Internet, the Internet never forgets. If you want to change later in life, you will always be measured by what sins you committed in your youth. When I start a family, I don’t want my children to be able to look up all my mistakes on the Internet. I want to be a good father. I have a moral obligation to educate my children properly and not to preach water and drink wine. Then I’m just another hypocrite. Otherwise all my advice and the education I give to my children will only corrupt their development. My children will lose all respect for me if they see only the hypocrite in me. Many porn actors have even admitted that making porn was the biggest mistake in their lives and they wish for an intact family in which they are loved.

[@NadiaSeesIt]

When people talk about the treatment of women, it's always about patriarchy, men, boys, groups of men, male-dominated spaces... but speak to a woman who's experienced a shame campaign and they will almost always mention women. Marylin Monroe didn't just experience being treated a certain way from men. Men are the larger part of shame and control on this issue, but not the only ones. Even now; women are encouraged to do all sorts of things by their peers, only to be laughed at for complying.

[@sindelscat9336]

I don't think men make the larger part of shame and control, I think other women are 10 times more likely to shame other women end of complying, the problem is men with no self-control encouraged it

At the end of the day its objectification. It doesn't matter if the woman does it to herself or not, all those negative effects happen....to both the woman and the men.

In promoting modesty we/society failed to make it a positive message of dignity and instead let it become a punitive message.

Apart from the justification of the religion and it's perks , I agree with the rest of the arguement. Religion isn't just some experiences of our ancestors in books and practices , it's much more than that , and it's a short sited arguement to be brought upon if you want to defend your opinion about this topic. Women should wear however they want to wear just like men do . And men should respect that if a man can't stop harrassing women that's a physical and physicological issue. I agree with not selling your body and dignity online for few coins tho. I'd never support the idea of websites like only fans, but it's women's choice. Let them experience the result of their decisions. If they wanna do it let them do it and see if it's bad or good for their future " well we know that it's not good "

Both men and women should be allowed to be empowered and have good/well written stories and characters, if that makes sense. Movies from the past understood that.

[@Devil-Made]

Im not at all religious, but I’ve begun to understand that religious teachings can be highly valuable sources of wisdom from ancient humans who struggled with a lot of the same problems we do today. The problem is it’s not presented in a way that’s easily understood. There is no (or sometimes very little) explanation as to WHY we are expected to do/not do XYZ. You kind of have to figure that out for yourself. Or talk to an expert. And for that reason a lot of religious teachings are dismissed out of hand. I think everyone has the right to make informed decisions for themselves, especially concerning their body. But the key word there is INFORMED. People are so woefully misinformed about everything today, even basic logic. I don’t trust anyone to know what they’re doing. We’re more like children now than ever before in history. The loudest amongst us make decisions purely based on emotions - one of the most childish things a person can do. Modesty and humility are important to preserving one’s confidence and self-image, not just amongst themselves but to the larger group as a whole as well. People who leave nothing to the imagination don’t cherish or hold dear anything about themselves. And no one else does either. I have much more respect for women who dress slightly conservatively, and very often it’s much more attractive too.

Thank you for addressing this vital issue - there is just So much more at stake when it comes to willful nudity/pornography/promiscuity than anyone thinks when they first get into it. My heart breaks for all the brokenness that results...

[@NathanSlaymaker]

I would suggest a slight amendment to your assertions - it seems like you're addressing the slightly larger issue of "pornography," beyond mere nudity. It took me years to realize that something can be pornographic even if the person is wearing some clothes, or if there are no visual elements to the content (there's such a thing as a text-only pornographic book). I think that's what you were getting at with the references to twerking & Instagram models being commodified. All of these things are inherently harmful to the producer as well as the viewer, both in the moment & in the long term. I know I'm still struggling with the ramifications that come from this cheapening of the value of human beings.

[@Mereologist]

When you make a decision, you are making it not only for yourself, but also for future-you. And if there's one thing I've learned over the years, it's that future-you may have a lot of disagreements about whether what you are doing right now is a good idea. You really don't want future-you to be mad at you all the time. Better to try and work together.

I can't help but notice there's been a trend towards women's fashion becoming more and more risque recently, as well. The last two years, I've seen a uptick in women, but especially teenagers and even little girls wearing clothes that are very revealing. The tops are smaller, the jeans ride lower, the shorts are shorter. It's all very...troubling. Doubly so because the parents are letting them wear this stuff without any apparent concern.

[@h.haydon8044]

I love what you said 10:00 to the end! My own thoughts: -While a person should decide on their own wardrobe, I don't want to see your private parts. It's difficult to look anywhere else, but at the same time, I don't want to shame people. I can't control what they wear. I'll focus on myself and what I wear. -Whatever you put out there, it's out there forever. -I absolutely agree with what you said about Marilyn Monroe. -S#x workers and buyers should not be shamed as long it is between consensual adults.

[@trevorsneath4665]

When thongs, or g-strings, became the most common woman's underwear, we started going down hill. If your aiming to dress in the minimum of underwear then nakedness is the inevitable next step. I understand g-strings have a place in the wardrobe, but they aren't for every day unless you want to feel near naked, and want to display yourself. I find briefs far more sexy for what they hide while g-strings leave nothing to the imagination except the tiniest of triangles.

[@NadiaSeesIt]

I was actually told by an OB that they are not a good choice for your health down there. It transfers bacteria easily. So many reasons not to wear them

You have no idea what you're talking about and are reaching.

For all you know, someone in modest clothes is wearing a g string underneath.

Video Feedback; it would have been nice for you to speculate further on the negative and positive cultural changes that have happened from the excessive nudity. I add 'positive' because it is so easy to mark the negative ones (porn addiction, woes of the industry, and the desensitization of everyone, underage access to it, minimized accountability for the signals you send, etc.). Great video. It is just a topic that touches on so much and the way you investigate these topics would make so much better for longer form. You have the skill and intelligence to link together more symptoms to this in an articulate way. The issue nowadays is people don't have to worry about the morality of their actions, because they can't see the 2nd hand problems that happen. They are also blinded by the instant gratification. Only feeling pressure, self-shame, or self-guilt years later when they get to an age where the biological clock starts to tick or the youth and attention starts to decline and also their prospects. Rant Section: Everyone is unhappy because of the mental environment we have put ourselves in. Changing what used to be 'not okay', to okay, without questioning why it was 'not okay' to begin with (further than the off hand 'patriarchy' or 'religion'). Social media's control, dating apps, halted discussions of differing opinions; we (and me) and companies that control everywhere our virtual eyes go, have created a me first environment, a selfish environment. Where the easy button that hurts us is way to easy to press. Everyone wants to label others, but doesn't want to be labeled themselves. We need to come together, but there is no constant that holds up to the wrath of the 5%. No one likes the ambiguity we live in, but everyone is fighting so hard for it to make sure everyone is included. We need to go back to being okay being uncomfortable with things. To not associate that discomfort instantly means that someone else did something wrong to you or that you are owed something. 'Life is unfair' is a statement that always holds true, not an opportunity to feel entitled to be compensated for it or that someone is the sole cause of the unfairness.

What's incredibly interesting is looking at the difference between the way progressive see real life women who shamelessly show off and sell their bodies vs. how they see depictions of equally sexualized fictional women. They will talk all day long about how 'empowering' it is for real life women to be sex workers or otherwise expose their bodies. But the moment an attractive woman in anime or a video game is designed to show even an INCH of skin, these same people lose their minds and start claiming such things are 'harmful' to women. So real women going into sex work or revealing their naked bodies without reserve = not harmful. But fictional women being drawn with some cleavage and jiggle physics = harmful. Makes perfect sense.
