I think that should be obvious. Do you know immodesty when you see it?
Exactly! But who is you. Immodesty is actually somewhat cultural so it isn't a question that is immaterial. There are certain cultures where it does not tempt men to see women clad in a manner that would be very tempting to Western males.
I hate to say it, no really I do not. This statement is so inane I can hardly believe it was made on this board! So, if it is permissible for women to run around naked in some cultures where it would not be tempting that is not immodest. Right! I cannot begin to express my incredulity over this statement, so I will leave it as is, besides, Jerrold Lewis has already made a more sane reply.
