I don't have the quote off hand, but several years ago one of the GA's said that women were walking pornography if they weren't modest.

Basically it is always the woman's fault for anything the man is tempted by or does.


That just goes in line with the grand tradition of Mormon men reducing women down to objects and property.

Finally, do not patronize pornography. Do not use your purchasing power to support moral degradation. And young women, please understand that if you dress immodestly, you are magnifying this problem by becoming pornography to some of the men who see you.

I have to learn how to search better on LDS.org. I tried to find this quickly but failed.

A hot woman is still a hot woman, even in a burqua. It just makes it harder for men to figure it out.
