That is true, but it doesn't mean that things that are acceptable now are necessarily wrong. Whether people want to admit it or not, most of our standards are based on culture. As has been mentioned over and over, 200 years ago mid-calf length skirts were waaaaay taboo.

That's why God gave us some principles that will work in every culture, every time period.
