Nowadays, women wear revealing clothing, such as short dresses and skirts and low cut tops. These fashions stand out to me as being one suggestion to people as how women are being viewed. Women are being seen as independent and unihibited by opinions of people in society. They can make choices on their own and by picking clothing once prohibited to them, they are making a stand proving that they do not need others deeming what is appropriate for them to wear and do. I believe that styles today also prove that women have more say in what they do. A lot of people are still in the very conservative mode, but women are breaking out of this mold. It is almost similar to the "glass ceiling effect" because they are being suppressed by the past opinions and views. By breaking these "rules", women are standing up for themselves and causing a change in how society views them. Those who are traditional may believe that it is showing women as immodest and immoral, that they are becoming almost trashy. But to others who are ready to move forward and forget these old preceptions concering clothing, it is a breakthrough for women, proving that they have just as much choice as anyone else. Since fashion is so stressed in society, what better way to make a statement.
