whatever happened to pants?

Where: Limketkai mall

Time: 3:30ish

Aye: Don’t look at the half naked girl.

Son: They’re everywhere. I’m sorry!

Gone are the days when girls would be walking down the road, with actual bottoms. (Bottoms = pants, short pants, skirts, jeans, and the like)

Nowadays, it’s like, did you wake up this morning and decide, “Hey, i think i’ll forgo traditional coverage today and just wear nothing for bottoms.”

Many of these alleged anti-bottoms wearers simply mistake long blouses for mini-dresses. And it does not look good. I’m sorry. Now, turn around, go home and put some pants on. Or a skirt. Or some shorts. Any will do just fine. There is hope.

A nice set of legs doesn’t give you permission to objectify yourself. So you have nice curves, so what? Do you really want people to look at you in a manner that is impure? Those of you who know me, might go like “Maybe you’re just jealous because you have the curves of a 12 year old boy.” I do have the curves of a 12 year old boy…no punchline. No buts.

But the more important thing for all of us to know is how our Creator wants us to treat our bodies. 1 Corinthians 6:20 says “For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify GOD in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.”

Clothes are fun to wear. And every single time we resist the urge to flaunt what our mommas gave us, there’s a pair of bottoms out there that comes alive.
