Those shorts are too short, my mother would tell me. They might give people the wrong impression. Those yoga pants are too revealing, they might give boys the wrong impression. Put make up on, but not too much. Because then they'd get the wrong impression. But what impression would that be? That women in America can wear as they please? That clothes don't determine consent maybe? That no one has the right to lay a finger on me? That whatever i wear and however i look are not your concern so I DON'T GIVE A **** You can take your impressions and best of luck but my body is mine, you don't like it? That *****
