“Modesty protects the intimate center of the person. It means refusing to unveil what should remain hidden.” (CCC 2521)

Because the body was created in the image and likeness of God it would be logical that the body be treated with the utmost respect. It is with this belief that the Catholic Church roots all of its teachings on the dignity of the human person. This includes protecting human life from conception to natural death, marriage and family, chastity and modesty.

“Modesty protects the mystery of persons and their love… Modesty is decency. It inspires ones choice of clothing.” (CCC 2522)
