Did You Give These to Dad on Father's Day?

Mantyhose - the latest in male fashion

If you are a student of history, I urge you to examine the fashions of dying cultures. You'll note that the men became more and more feminine in their apparel and personal appearance. Other things that degenerate: the arts. Think of Robert Mapplethorpe and Andy Warhol, the popularity of the pornographic novel Fifty Shades of Gray, the blasphemous plays, etc. The signs of collapse are everywhere, not just in the financial districts of the world

But times like these are an invitation to hope: to look for signs that indicate restoration of the true, the good, and the beautiful. Note the popularity of Gregorian Chant in recent years, the new media which includes Catholic fiction, films, and literary criticism. New solid and orthodox Catholic colleges and religious orders hold a seeds of promise for a bright future.

So, as you take note of the silliness of our decadent age, remember that what is truly real are those things that mirror most closely the glory of God. Everything else is just a dumb show.

  4. The fashionistas go all out to make women look like men and men look like women. Trying to find a skirt or dress in some clothing stores in my area is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. I do not mind wearing lady's, I repeat lady's, slacks or jeans sometimes, but not all the time. As a woman I am also tired of all the man-tailored blouses (camp shirts, etc.), and the more feminine ones are usually cut too low or the sleeves are too short for older women, and even for some young ones. It makes me want to start sewing again as I used to be an excellent seamstress for my family, but my eyesight and patience are not what they used to be. I believe Our Lady of La Salette said this was going to happen. A woman throwing on her husband's jacket to take out the garbage is one thing but constantly wearing men's clothing is quite another.
