What’s your Excuse?
by Rita Davidson
I have this inner urge to help Catholic women understand that they can wear skirts for EVERYTHING. I don’t know why God put that urge in my gut, but when I see Catholic women making excuses why they can’t wear SKIRTS (thank you Theresa!) , it makes me want to prove it, so she realizes how narrow her thinking is. Then I found this:
These Cholita’s do everything in their Traditional Skirt which is a dress. Very colorful too! From Bolivia, they were once considered the ‘underdog’ in that country and are now being accepted. These Cholita women have taken it upon themselves to climb 8 MOUNTAINS. Yes, IN A DRESS, (skirt to be exact). I’ve heard they wrestle in a skirt too.
Of all the things that need to be done in our lives, mountain climbing has got to be the most grueling to do with or without a skirt. I often see women saying, “I can’t wear a skirt I am _____________” (fill in the blank). But really they are just hiding behind that excuse, not realizing when you really put your MIND to something you will FIND A WAY to do it.
I hope this will give you that last push you need to pack up your pants? I’m here to show you what Real Catholic modesty is. It doesn’t have to be flouncy skirts and pastel dresses for dainty women. Whatever you wrongly “THINK” it is that is keeping you from it I’m here to show you different. It can be vibrant and beautiful clothing too for women that live hard!
Post below your thoughts, and your excuses, and if you haven’t grabbed a copy of my book, “Immodesty, Satans Virtue”, grab it HERE at the sale price, before it starts shipping!
With love,

awww Yes! So many women have lost the ability to do chores and activities in pants…Women have worn skirts for 2000 years and did everything and more than we ever do now! It’s amazing how much we have lost when we’ve been brainwashed that you ‘can’t do that in a skirt!”
