Thanks for sharing this. I grew up as a good-Christian-girl with many of those messages and had a real complex about my appearance and dress because of my fear that showing any part of my body would cause some man to sin.  I felt completely powerless to control what men think and do while at the same time completely responsible for it.  It's true that we can't control what other people think and do, but they are responsible for their own thoughts and actions, just as we are responsible for ours.
