I've said this before, but I believe it to be true....
Women love to look beautiful. It's part of our dna. So, take away makeup and jewelry, and we'll overcompensate in other areas. Hence, the elaborate hairstyles, feathers and beautiful clothing. We don't want to look plain. We love beautiful things. So, we do what we can 'legally' do.
Since we are commanded to reject what "the world" considers beautiful, we have created our own culture of 'beauty'.
I'm also aware that it's a contradiction. Why not just wear jewelry?

And why post vicious generalizations about JCMers who aren't hurting anyone, just trying to stay connected with good friends at a reunion? Heard some tough stuff being said by nice Christian folks pretty much lumping us all into the same vat of debauchery. Ha! Oh well...had fun anyway!

I'm sorry that stuff like this happens. I'm not surprised, though.
