Notable and Quotable
"The steamy days of Washington summer may be upon us, but these girls, all from Burke, were definitely not getting skimpy. For a generation bombarded with news of pantyless celebrities, most of the girls we interviewed were surprisingly modest, more Hilary Duff than Lindsay Lohan."
-- Ylan Q. Mui, 'It's Not Just Parents Saying No to Skimpy Clothes,' Washington Post, June 4, '07
WSJ article on Dr. Phil
Submitted by Dave Litster, Boise, ID on Fri, 12/21/2007 - 11:14I just read your article in the Wall Street Journal. Congratulations on the terrific work you do and the stand you take for modesty. The old adage "sex and controversy sell" is absolutely true with Dr. Phil. He couldn't have your work presented because it wasn't edgy or sexy enough. Consider it a badge of honor that your work wasn't highlighted. I have thought he was a phony for many years; this confirms my impressions. I have one daughter that we always encouraged to dress modestly and she continues to do that (she is 20 now). She was part of the "girlcott" of A&F. Her brothers have helped as well and often use the expression, "modest is hottest" to encourage their friends to dress appropriately. God bless you and your efforts!
