Dress pet peeves
If you are going to wear this dress
you have to respect the rules
Yes, they are conservative and strict
but this is our history and heritage
For example
you should always wear a petticoat
Your dress should be high-neck—
nothing off the shoulders
Your hair cannot be down
it should be gathered at the neck
held by a ribbon
tied in a perfect butterfly bow
I am offended
when you don’t observe the requirements
This attire has a long tradition
We are representing our culture
