The Negative Effects of Modesty on Girls

The survey found that girls who believe modesty messages as a teenager are 30% more likely to have low self-esteem, below average self-esteem as an adult. The worst example is from Dan Agresha's Secret Keeper Girl Curriculum which was quite popular in sort of those, the aughts and onwards. She told girls as young as eight that the sight of their bellies would make adult men out of control.
