“Because of the implied reasons that I dress the way I do, I often wonder if people think I’m uneducated or brainwashed into wearing long skirts. I feel that this is often the idea when you see groups of women usually with long hair and wearing long skirts. “Oh they must be those crazy fundamentalist Christians!” I wonder if people can tell by looking at me that I’m not in fact dressing the way I am for religious reasons, nor am I being forced to dress that way by my family, nor am I uneducated (I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Women’s Studies no less!) I am a feminist and proud to dress however I want.”
Reblogging for the paragraph. It made me realize that I do, in fact, assume that a woman who is wearing an ankle-length skirt that is not a hippie skirt is actually a morman/jehova’s witness/any one of those “crazy, terrible, non-feminist” religions. I need to stop judging people on A)their fashion choices, no matter what they may be, and B)their religion. So long as a woman has a choice in the matter, I should be happy that they are happy. Period.
Thanks for adding this!! (I’m the one who wrote the blog entry detailing my reasons why I dress modestly.)
