I read a post on Facebook yesterday talking about how the women wore very little clothing when playing Olympic Beach Volleyball & men wore much more...why do you think that is??
Of course I'm gonna give you my two cents. Since the 70's we women have been on a crash course to prove that we can do what ever we want when ever we want. Now I made sure before I started typing this that I put my BIG girl panties on because I usually wind up finding something in my own life that needs some work, so if you didn't put yours own when you got up this mornin' go get them now because I might not say what you want to hear. All I can say is it is what it is.
So the women are playing volleyball on TV in a 2 piece bathing suit, right?? First off it is beach volleyball, it has to be hot. Next, sex sells far better than toilet paper & deodorant, don't believe me sniff any teenage boy. As Paul Harvey said If he were the devil he would put dirtier movies on TV & have the mesmerizing media to fan the flames of his agenda. Itrks...
Obviously God didn't think the human body was ugly or disgusting, I mean after all Adam & Eve walked around naked & thought nothing of it...until...sin entered into the world. Then they knew they were naked. They were then clothed before being tossed out of the garden because God knew what an object of desire & lust it was going to become.
Now We know how men are, visual creatures, if it's in front of him he WILL look at it. In 1Timothy 2:9-10, we as women are instructed to dress modestly. It makes no sense to me for a woman to go have a doctor to make her boobs three times larger & make sure she accents them on a daily basis & then chastize a man for looking at them when he talks to her, really did you think he was gonna notice your eyes?? Be real..you serve them up he is gonna look at them. So take them off the plate & cover them.
We as women desire attention, any attention good or bad will do. If we don't get attention at home we will get it from somewhere else whether it be with our girlfriends at girls night out OR from the UPS man at work we will find it somewhere. This is why there are tons of selfies all over social media.
Self-worth has to come from inside us, hence the word self. So daddies tell your little girls they are pretty. Momma's teach your daughters that their bodies are beautiful BUT it is like the greatest present in the world & should be saved for her husband.
As much as we desire the attention of other people God wants our attention. He could have created robots to give him constant attention BUT he gave us free will. He wants us to choose HIM & desire to spend time with him. Spending time with GOD will change our perspective on awhat is appropriate & inappropriate.
We are not ignorant to the fact that the body of a woman is kryptonite to a man!!! So as women we should be responsible with the power God equipped us with. Be aware of the affects it can have on a man when you wear the low cut blouse or when you accentuate your assets. I am by no means saying that you can't look pretty & dress well...I am saying that if you dress like a hooker then don't act all offended when the construction crew whistles & comments as you walk down the side walk.
So parents teach those boys to respect women in all areas of life. They are not born knowing how to be respectful in public AND in private. We have to teach them to show respect when they speak, touch, kiss, & argue with their wives. How boys treat women starts at home...they observe the way dad treats mom & how mom allows others to treat her. Kids are like sponges they soak up what we say & what we do.
Meat can only be dangled in the face of a lion for so long before he pounces & consumes it. It matters not how well trained he is, how tired he may be nor how full his belly is...he is going to devour the meat. Therefore, if we teach our daughters to look at their bodies like objects then that's the way they will be treated. If we teach our sons to look at women like meat then that is exactly the way they will treat them. Change starts in the mirror...so take a good long look & see if perhaps your views about the body of a woman could be twisted.
In this day & age there are so many victims of child molestation that it warps our views of sex & our bodies. When your past has been splattered with the nightmare of sexual abuse the way your brain views sexuality has to be reprogrammed & it doesn't happen over night. The bible does say we can do all things through Christ who gives us the strength we need to deal with the challenges that accompany abuse.
Before the HATERS start hating...I am in no way saying that any form of sexual assault is a woman's fault because she may dress in a more revealing nature!!! Rape & the like is an EVIL thing!!! The fault in the case of rape lies squarely on the shoulders of the person who looses control & takes advantage of someone simply because they can. Pure & simple it is EVIL that totally changes a woman forever.
