As a woman, I find a man in a neck tie incredibly sexy. Does that mean I should ask that all men avoid wearing neck ties as not to temp me to lust after them?

Or, maybe I should just make a concious choice not to. Or at the very least, not be too obvious about it. Men make a choice when they leer obviously at a womans breast, covered or otherwise. They are not magical. They do not hipnotize. A man makes a choice to look. Some make the choice to ooogle, making their wives angry. Their not being tempted by some evil, they’re being idiots.

Perhaps the woman with the low cut top has a husband who loves the way she looks in them. Wearing that low cut top keeps her husband focused on her.

People need to stop being so jealous and realize, our thoughts, our fantasies and our dreams are ours alone. No one but God can judge you for the things inside your head. There is a part of you thats no one elses business, not even your spouses.

Acting on those thoughts is another story, I mean, wanking in a locked room to porn for example? In that case, I’d say one should talk to their spouse, theres a desire and need not being met in their marriage bed and it needs to be adressed. Maybe she can join in? Why not create and explore the fantasy together?

Do Christian women have a right to dress sexually provocative and say that the brothers need to control themselves? Can we truly dress how we want to dress? Many young women wear this during church services, in the choir and doing their so called praise dances.

I am of the belief that we are not to become a stumbling block for our brethren [brothers]. Many sisters are quoted as saying that is his problem if he can’t contain his lust and we already know that some men’s minds are going to go where they are going to go any way.

It is asked in the Bible: “Can a woman truly excuse her sexual dress and provocative behavior? Should a Christian woman wear anything that may cause her brother to fall?”

For the record I am not talking about brothers who would be tempted by anything that walks; but those who struggle daily because of their exposure to under-dressed women, media overexposure, etc. Let’s go to this Scripture from Romans.

Romans 14:13 KJV
Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way. [man here means ‘mankind’]

It is really somehow disheartening how certain things are justified in our churches today. Old mothers aren’t that way anymore with the big white sheets. They are more like enablers and pacifiers. Nobody wants to rock the boat and don’t realize that they are sending children right into the hands of Satan and ultimately to hell. To be lukewarm in our walk with Christ is akin to fearlessness of the atonement of Christ. God does not tolerated that; therefore, we have lots to fear.

Provocative Church Dressing: In Quest for Deeper Understanding

Your points are quite well taken and understood. However, I think you missed the boat somewhere around the Nile River. For starters, do you have any brother(s), a male sibling? Ask for his [their] honest opinion on the subject. Guys have a harder time than you think, so think like them for a second while you plan what you wear. You do have a Worldliness issue.
How do we differentiate Godliness and worldliness? Godliness is spiritual. It is living in a way that God will approve of. Godliness is living a life of virtue and devotion to God. Worldliness is of the flesh. It is living in a way opposed to God. Worldliness is Satan’s influence to lead us away from God and the paths of righteousness (1 Corinthians 2:12, 11:31; John 17:14).
I know that some women roll their eyes a lot when they hear ‘the dress modestly’ speech, but seriously, it’s a huge help. A Very Huge Help! Look, if you are an attractive woman, you are right, you can’t control where guys thoughts go. But you don’t have to help them get there quicker. A lot of us [guys] are really trying, and small skirts or deep cleavage just sets us back, no matter how strong we are. Cover the cleavage. It’s intoxicating, they’re wonderful but I should really concentrate on my wife’s and not yours.
My sister, when it comes to being tempted visually, I am your much weaker brother. I would humbly ask, as you exercise your wonderful freedom in Christ, you would demonstrate grace and help me in my quest to live a life that honors our great God. YOU can help ME in my weakness.
Why do you think men disappeared from church? If women knew the devastation that their immodesty causes a man who is struggling with porn/lust /and his family, I think they might reconsider. ESPECIALLY in church….which “should” be a safe place for men to not have to dart their eyes every two seconds.
What makes me sad is that most Christian ladies don’t care about protecting their Christian brother’s purity. True, there are some things a guy can do, such as look away and not look again once he’s seen the lady dressed in skimpy clothes, but women need to do their part in helping them [the guys] too. The way that God made men, it’s hard for men to not look and imagine the rest. If you think what you’re wearing is modest when you’re standing up, bend over and if your breasts or buttocks hang out, change into a less revealing outfit. Also, I’ve been told by other Christian guys who care about this issue that even bra straps, or anything that looks like bra straps, coming out from under a shirt can cause their minds to go off.
My advice to you is this: “Dressing immodestly may seem harmless to anyone but yourself, but you must realize that’s not true. Try to be respectful to men who are trying to overcome sin. They struggle with lusting after immodestly dressed women. Some have absolutely no self control to look away. It’s really hard for them! You don’t understand the intensity with which men are compelled in and battle these things…not giving us more to mentally work with does not win our battle (nor does dressing provocatively lose it) but simply being thoughtful in how you dress and doing your best to help us see who you are instead of how your body looks is greatly appreciated.” If you are a Christ-follower, please understand the lust issues that men face. It is difficult enough for guys to stay mentally pure. It’s my prayer that God touches your heart, Amen!

On Fasting:

The essence of a fast is self-denial in order to direct our thoughts to God. Traditionally, fasting has been the decision not to eat food for a certain length of time so that hunger will remind us of God. Some scholars have rendered a broader definition, advocating voluntarily refraining from television, people, sleep or sexual relations.

i have not sean any to sexy yet .they wear long dress to church .

A good reminder is from 1 Corinithians:  “Be careful, however, that the exercise of your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the weak.”

Amen to the content of the article!

But the picture in the article can take men’s focus away from the content and can be not-so-edifying to guys…

The point of the author and commentators that women have responsibility to dress so as not provoke men, and should have sympathy for how easy it is for men to be aroused is taken, but men have a resonsibility as well. They need to learn to control their lust no matter what women wear. No matter how careful women are in their dress, they may still arouse men. For example, even if women were to avoid all of the particular dress habits noted above, they could still arouse a man wearing something else. Some of us are aroused by women in sleeveless blouses, or high heels, articles that are very decent in themselves. Even if a woman were to wear a blouse buttoned to the top, with a long skirt, a man could still be very aroused by this. Learning to live with arousal, in school, work with female co-workers, or even church, can be trying, but with time, a man can learn to control his lust. He must take responsibility for it. Especially if he is not married and trying to remain pure, avoiding masterbation, this can be very trying. But it is worth the effort, and can teach the man to appreciate what the woman has to offer, her feminine charm other than physical. His lust can even make him more attentative to please women around him. Suffering the almost painful longing around women can make him stronger is he edures it, and knowing that his sisters are sympathetic to his plight is nice, at least in the church.

All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify.(1 Corinthians 10:23)

Let no one seek his own, but each one the other’s well-being.(1 Corinthians 10:24) NKJV
