Different cultures have different notions of what constitutes "immodestly
dressed".  There are tribes in New Guinea whose women don't cover their
breasts at all ... would that be considered acceptable in this country?  I
don't see why _your_ standards of acceptable dress should be "obviously the
right one" for all cultures!
