Modesty - Laurentine - 12-22-2009
It is the quality not to tell everyone what are you supposed to do or to say. Modesty is not the humility, it should be supported and protected, but the important thing is that it should be recognized by all the peoples. It is good or bad to be a modest man?

Modesty is an aspect of the culture of a country or people, at a given point in time, and is a measure against which an individual in society may be judged. Though the term can be applied to both men and women, and boys and girls, it is most commonly applied to women and girls.

i think that we should not be modest nowadays. We live in times where for people living in industrialized countries more or less everything is available in abundance. We can eat as much as we like, we even flush our toilettes with drinking water, we fly to a city far away just to do some shopping, we wear expensive clothes fabricated by highly renowned brands, live in larger and larger houses or flats, etc.
