I saw this on Twitter and it made me feel physically sick. Proud of you for rising above it and staying true to who you are!

Those are BOYS smh. Gross little incels who cannot handle themselves much less a grown woman. Those little creepy weirdos will never procreate so they're just jealous that you're happy, healthy, and married to a stable man whose son you will have.

*anyway... I think your shower dress + nails were just inspo perfect 🧚🏼‍♀️💫 and the lipstick color was tdf! 💖

Right! Anyone who goes that crazy over a woman’s chest has definitely never seen a real woman other than on a computer screen if u know what I mean.

I know what you mean, honey. I can guarantee that not one of them has had a testicle drop yet 😆

I think your response to this is wonderful. I believe that women dress modestly for themselves, not for the benefit of other people. It allows you to be in charge of how you are perceived, and it does limit unwanted attention. It won't stop all unwanted attention, but if you're dressed modestly and someone sexualizes you, then it's completely on the other person. Creepy people are going to be creepy and you can't stop that from happening.

Similar to what you said in another comment, the only person you can control and change is yourself. You aren't responsible for the actions, thoughts, feelings of others.

I saw these doctored photos of you when I was scrolling through my feed the other day and was practically in tears and hoped you never saw them. My mind was racing with of all of these things I wanted to say to these ignorant trolls but it would only make things worse. I am also busty and have had to deal with gross comments since I was in Junior High. SO sorry you ended up seeing these and glad you are taking the high road.

I 100% agree. Bad men are going to be bad no matter how you dress. I had a somewhat similar situation happen recently. I went on a walk with daughter in her stroller because it was a surprisingly warm day. I was wearing a long black puffy coat that covers my butt, with a sweat shirt and joggers. Nothing showing at all. Then a man in a mini van started cat calling me and followed me down a whole block! I remember thinking what a pig, how could someone harass a woman walking with a baby???

You have my full support Abby ❤️ when ever I've seen an inappropriate comments towards you, I report it immediately. Us ladies have to stick together.

I absolutely LOVE this point. . . Modesty isn’t about stopping bad men from being bad. It’s about helping good men focus on who you are.

I hate people who spew that modesty can prevent sexual assault...the evidence just doesn't show this to be true. So glad that you are not one of these people.

As a liberal who was never taught much about modesty accept for that whole rape prevention bullshit, this has offered up a new perspective that I can understand.

Thank you for your support! Yeah, bad men are going to be bad whether or not you dress modestly. I think this goes under the heading of "I can't control your actions, I can only control my actions and reactions."
