It's not as Though I'm Naked!


They say that you are what you wear, just like how you are what you eat. And with my ensemble for today: a tank top underneath a sweatshirt + a denim skirt over an undeniably dark pair of tights + boots, and not to mention, my underwear - just a few pieces that I have which I'm very comfortable wearing - you can say that I'm a creative person, who mixes and matches her clothes. You might also find me too clothed for the tropical Philippine weather. Or, you could've also thought I'm such a steal, wondering where I got my sweatshirt or my boots cos they are cute... unphilosophically speaking.

However, I must've done something utterly wrong with what I wore, because the security guard and librarian found something indecent with what I was wearing, and didn't let me enter the library unless I wore something more  "appropriate", because they said that my skirt is too short

But what is appropriate, really? Isn't what I was wearing appropriate? Does it ruin the reputation of my school? Do I look like a whore? Does my look reveal too much skin? It's not as though I'm naked! I'm bloody wrapped up in an awful lot of clothes! People in leggings and an ordinary T-shirt get to enter the library! How is that any different with a skirt over tights? Does it mean, if I take my skirt off they'll let me in? Even the people in the very conservative Catholic Church let me in!

I just don't get it, and I just want to clear this off my chest.

I wish that no girl, erm, anybody else, would be shunned from entering the library again for what they're wearing. If you'll ask me, I find it rather stupid.
