Or how about the meaning of modest?
- 1 a: placing a moderate estimate on one's abilities or worth
- b: neither bold nor self-assertive : tending toward diffidence
- 2: arising from or characteristic of a modest nature
- 3: observing the proprieties of dress and behavior: decent
btw...the word modest comes from the Latin word modestus which means: moderate...avoiding extremes of behavior or expression.
Nothing has changed for me. I still dress modest according to my culture around me. Even on the golf course!  |
modesty is according to the culture around you ????
what if you lived in a heathen culture? Have you seen the cultural norms in Miami and Los Angeles??
So we go by culture only not by the bible...you learn something every day.
