Help?

Hi, all! I hope you are having a happy holiday season. I'm working on a paper for a conference in February. The conference is on Evangelicalism in America, and my paper hypothesizes that the new "Modesty Movement" heralded by Wendy Shalit in such books as A Return to Modesty: Discovering the Lost Virtue (1999), Girls Gone Mild: Young Women Reclaim Self-Respect and Find It's Not Bad to be Good (2007), and The Good Girl Revolution: Young Rebels with Self-Esteem and High Standards (2008) is common ground for discussion between Evangelical Christians and young Feminists. I need to discuss why those two groups have historically considered themselves at cross purposes, and to do that, I'm conducting an informal poll. I would ask that this be limited to women only, as that's who my paper focuses on, and that everyone answer both questions. You can also elaborate in the comments if you'd like, though that's not required. Thanks in advanced for your help, everyone.
