My problem is what constitutes "modest" and what doesn't? My priest were shorts to the church picnic--and he has nice legs. :p
I never wear shorts, but I have a pair of jeans that look tight because the material has some spandex in it and they're very comfortable. But, I usually wear shirts that are long and flowing. So, I don't know if that would qualify as modest or not when I wear the jeans with it.
Honestly, if the guys' a pervert, you could wear a gunny-sack and he'd still leer. So, some men have to start taking responsibility for letting their lustful thoughts run wild and not praying for a clean mind.

I never think that what I'm wearing is inappropriate. But I also wear shorts, tanks, I even have a bikini (gasp! the horror!).

The whole thing is so subjective. But, on the whole, I don't think that I ever put something on that is indecent or anything else (unless that is the point and I've maybe only done that once or twice).
