It's that women of the world are dressing in such a manner that modesty stands out on it's own.
A man dressing modestly doesn't stand out in this world. If the majority of men began wearing skirts. dresses or otherwise clothed themselves in a manner that showed off their bodies... then we would.
A modestly dressed woman, in this day and age, tends to stand out.
