Dress Code Violation of the Day: Brigham Young University student Brittany Molina thought she was getting a love note when a fellow student handed her a folded piece of paper while she was standing around the school’s Provo campus on Valentine’s Day.
But when she opened it up, she discovered not an admission of attraction, but instead a strongly worded criticism of her attire.
“You may want to consider that what you’re wearing has a negative effect on men (and women) around you,” read the letter. “Many people come to this university because they feel safe, morally as well as physically, here. They expect others to abide by the Honor Code that we all agreed on. Please consider your commitment to the Honor Code (which you agreed to) when dressing each day. Thank you.”
Molina posted the piece of paper on Twitter along with a photo of what she was wearing when she received it. ”Gosh dang it,” she tweeted, “I’ll remember to dress in jeans, a sweatshirt and tennis shoes tomorrow. That way I don’t make people feel uncomfortable.”
According to Molina, the young man who handed her the note “was gone within 5 seconds.” BYU has not commented on this incident.

Having been raised Mormon, I can tell you BYU is probably very unhappy with how short that skirt is and how low the top is. In Young Women we were drilled on how proper modesty and loving our body meant that all tops needed to be as high as your collarbones and all skirts needed to go a thumb’s length past your knee at the very least.
I went to BYU for 4 long years and I can absolutely testify that this sort of behaviour is totally typical. No doubt some dude got an erection by looking at her SKIN TIGHT leggings and EXPOSED clavicles and was so incensed that she caused such an immoral action in his pants that he felt the righteous priesthood duty to rebuke her sinfulness.
As you probably have gathered, Mormonism takes sexism to a whole different level. Our secular society is positively teeming with equality and fairness in comparison.](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzi3mwMVRo1qzpwi0o1_500.jpg)
