Whoa.

There was no shaming involved (at least not intentionally). People can wear whatever they want. I’m the last person to complain about people’s choice of clothing.

It was an (amusing to me) observation, mostly because I found it ironic that she’s on the side that praises “modesty” and then doesn’t, as usual, practice what nonsense she preaches.

Also, I thought it was really funny how many times she had to keep pulling the top up to keep everything in there.

That’s all my comment was. A throwaway observation about something I thought was funny.

Puritanical shaming? Man, sorry if it came across that way.

Edit: Oh, was it the “good lord” bit? I just use that term for comic effect a lot of the time. I forget it’s something people say unironically with regard to their beliefs. I see now how that could have been misinterpreted.

I’m used to the term just being random exclamation a lot like how “Jesus Christ” or “OMG” or whatever are used these days. Apologies.

No, it very much seemed like you were complaining about how revealing the outfit is without the context of the right being the “modesty” side. That makes much more sense. Most of the time you see someone complain about that kind of thing it is very much from the shaming side.

Yeah, I can definitely see how my comment could be interpreted that way.

Lol, I probably should have initially added that context.

Anyway, apologies for the misunderstanding!
