inappropriate clothing

Parvati Group – Shikshapatri Shlok 38,161

SHLOK 38.My disciples shall never wear garments,

which may cause any indecent exposure of the body.

http://www.shikshapatri.org.uk/

Definition Deliberate exposure by a person of a portion or

portions of his or her own body under circumstances where such an exposure is likely to be seen as contrary to the local commonly accepted standards of decency

Our standards are stated in Shikshapatri shlok 161

It can be a violation of law. In some countries a breach of the standards of

modesty may constitute public indecency. e.g Most Middle East Countries.

If women want respect and not to be treated as a “piece of meat, sex toy etc.” they need to

exhibit modesty in their dress and behaviour in public.”

Women should not behave in a way that attracts undesirable male

attention.
