“The girls [whom the Times reporter] interviewed cited wholesome-seeming celebrities as their favorites. . . Is it possible that today’s teens have seen enough to inoculate them against the pressures of their teenage years?”

Dear Wendy, Thank you for
Submitted by Anonymous on Fri, 06/27/2008 - 23:42Dear Wendy,
Thank you for your strong voice! You have no idea how grateful I am that you wrote A Return to Modesty. It really helped me feel a lot better about myself and the way I am. I also felt inspired to speak out about my views and not hide them from others, just knowing that I'm not alone (as it sometimes seems!).
I seem to remember you mentioned you found an advertisement for alternative menstrual products to be "Orwellian." If you would like to explore this option further you may visit

But of course you don't have to! But I've found reusable pads to be extremely comfortable and practical.
I am particularly interested in finding women to be friends with who, like me, are modest, but not religious. They seem to be few and far between, but maybe now that I'm on the lookout for them, I'll find them!
Thanks~
