No Good Result

Many years ago there was need a very necessary change in a certain area of America’s culture. It took awhile, but it finally took place as part of the now infamous counterculture movement which began during the mid-1960 time period. The needed positive cultural change was how women were treated and respected. In spite of their good contributions, they were considered as second class citizens. The change started out very positive, but it over the years it has been yielding awful results in the modern American culture.
Forty-five years ago when so many attractive and modestly dressed woman would be out in public doing good and necessary things, they were subjected to very embarrassing comments and behavior. It was common for men to whistle and make crude comments in their direction as they walked by. It was insulting and demeaning. A change had to be made.
The counterculture movement forced laws to be made in favor of women during the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. Crude and unsolicited comments and embarrassing behavior directed at women were considered sexual harassment. The new laws were justified and worked very well.
Let us now move forward to modern times and see how women have morphed into the embarrassing and demeaning cultural objects that they are. Women have taken full advantage of the new laws in a very negative way. Female behavior has been very unbecoming and seriously wrong out in public everywhere during modern times, with no consequences, unless any male reacts to that behavior and is accused of sexual harassment or sexual abuse.
It is very common now to see young girls, high school girls, and grown women of advanced age everywhere casually dressed so that plenty of cleavage and bare breast show. It is very common to see girls and women casually dressed in blue jeans and pants so tight that no imagination is needed front or back. These modes of dress and behavior are even seen at church services at any given time.
All of this female behavior has to change. Common sense has to prevail. Common decency must again be the order of everyday. If men by the order of law are not allowed to make any comments, especially suggestive, women also should not be allowed to dress immodestly and be out in public everywhere at any given time. What has to be good for the gander has to be good for the goose also. Modest female dress out in public must become fashionable for all time, muy, muy pronto.
